So the summer season has officially concluded with yesterday’s celebration of Labor Day.  School starts up again Wednesday, at least for those states who have a heart and try not to fry little brains in classrooms while the 90 degree heat beats down on the little red schoolhouse.  School means that in addition to little children getting an education, school buses will also be out and about… making traffic nightmarish once again.  Of course, that has nothing to do with this post.  It’s just a side effect I wanted to make a note of.

I could recap about how this past weekend was consumed by working on my side project (which soft launched two weeks ago and has already received national industry media attention), going to a fair, hibachi with The Wolves, and seeing The Final Destination… but why look back.  There are a few things coming up though in the next few months I’m pretty psyched about… so here’s a list of my most looked forward to post-Labor Day activities:

• This weekend there’s supposed to be a planning meeting for Crisis NYC… hopefully it’s still on and I should be attending… if it is still on…

• ReNYC is October 10th here in NYC.  I have no idea what we’re going to do… but Poppy is the leader… and I will follow her to the ends of the earth and be happy about it!

• Avitaween will be October 24th in beautiful sunny Florida.  The theme this year is INVADED! which is right up my alley.  We’ve already booked our flights and hotel (same one as last year)… and we’re actually going down a day earlier than last year too so we can fit more stuff (drinking) in.  So if your coming, look for me, I’ll be the classic illegal alien… Juan Valdez…

• In case you didn’t know… Poppy and I are huge WWE fans.  Now I’ve been to ALOT of WWE shows… including making an in ring appearance at SummerSlam in 2002.  Why do I go to so many shows?  Well normally I work them.  In November though I’m going to do something I haven’t done since I was with my dad as a kid… Poppy and I will be going to actually see WWE RAW Live as actual fans!

• At some point before the end of the year, I’ll hopefully be caught up on the side project and will then be able to take it to the next level.  Of course… with Google Wave coming out at the end of the month, all my efforts may be for nothing… in which case… I’ll probably have a psychotic episode…

•In classic LeSombre fashion… I’ll be saving the last bullet for when something gets canceled, I get lost in a drunken stupor in the NYC Subway system, a hurricane wipes Florida off the map, someone stands up in front and refuses to sit, or when the madness comes…

I’m hoping for the madness.
