Happy (Labor Day) New Year
To me, Labor Day Weekend is the symbolic New Year: The start of the academic year, the return of everybody from the beach and the Hamptons (a deeply uninteresting scene to me, FYI), the new fashion/TV/car/serious-movie/serious-book season, and the time when everyone in the business world gets back in gear. Time for your opera or theatre subscription to start, time to bring out the Shetland sweaters, time to open the windows at night instead of closing them to the hermetic airconditioning, time to bring back blazers, blue jeans, and to look forward to F. Scott Fitzgerald's timeless observation of "football weather," time, finally, to watch the dogs frisk in the swirling leaves.
Time, that is, to renew.
Happy New Year, dear reader.
