July was a busy month for me.  Summer in the south is brutal and the heat has been here for a while, as the mercury continues to climb, I find myself able to function less and less. I prefer the cold, I find that I tend to create my best work in the winter months. Lately, I've struggled with my creativity, I'm bored with the world around me. I don't know why this is, all I know is it is here and I have to deal with it. With a little bit of luck, I'll find my way through this creative fog in August.
