Dog days

We have officially entered the "dog days" of summer. The heat and humidity have come to Washington just in time for my new roommate to move in. He is coming from upstate New York, this could not be a Congress is on recess and it seems everyone is on vacation. Training camp is opening up in football and the PGA Championship is right around the corner. While I was in college it would bring excitement as I was always looking forward to going back to school. However, my parents would be depressed because they did not want summer to end. I always see this is as just one of the "rites of passage" with every year that comes and goes.
