First Day of School

It's the first day of school for many students here in DC, and even though I am neither a student, teacher, or administrator, there is just something about the first day. Something about the excitement, the nerves, the new routines, and reunions with friends that permeates the air. 
I think you never quite get over the excitement of new writing implements and fresh pages. The desire for a cool bag to carry all your things. 
And so I wish all the people headed somewhere new, or back to somewhere they haven't been for a while a great day. 
And may those who already started school, a week, or a month ago recapture some of that magic. And those of us just headed for another Monday have the best Monday possible.
