so long, august

Oh, I love when I begin a book I absolutely love from the very first page:
Looking outside the massive sky. Thinking air staffs need to set a special time-zone for long-distance airplanes, or passengers like me very confusing about time. When a body floating in air, which country she belong to?
--from A Concise Chinese-English Dictionary for Lovers, by Xiaolu Guo (2007)

The best part about starting it today is that I have the day off tomorrow and I think, just maybe, I´ll finish it then. Tomorrow is off because of Labor Day, my favorite American holiday.

Hope you´re all safe and sound and so-so happy.
