As the Earth tilts us away from the sun, towards colder weather and darker days, things are flying around AG HQ like we’re in the middle of a hurricane. During deadline week, AG staff have been neck-deep in life matters, like moving, dance troupe and band practices, breaking up and making up, moving, weekend guru classes, working doubles, looking for work, moving, driving to Baton Rouge for graduate school three times a week, un-booting cars, taking puking dogs to the emergency vet at one in the morning (right in the thick of deadline) and yes, moving. But here we are, another issue in the can and a great month of activity booked, whether it’s getting deep with Truth Universal, roaming the city under the haunting shadow of the JFK assassination 50th anniversary or racing through Fringe Fest’s 70-plus shows. Despite the odds, other priorities, distractions, crises, grueling work schedules, neglected significant others, mountains of boxes and all-around sleep deprivation, the AG crew stayed focused and delivered. For that, I am truly thankful.
