The past several nights, it’s been going down into the 50s. The dog days are over, my friend.
“Run fast for your mother, run fast for your father
run for your children, for your sisters and brothers.
Leave all your love and your longing behind,
you can’t carry it with you if you want to survive”
-“Dog Days Are Over” by Florence & The Machine
