Virginia is sighing into Fall. Unlike the northern areas, we seem to push summer to such lengths that it dies of exhaustion before the frosts come. Even without the frost, the leaves begin to turn; their allotment of green chlorophyll simply exhausted by the long, hot summer. Fall will deepen into what passes here for winter, followed by a slow flowery recovery called spring, before the summer launches its attack on us again.

Modern living

With the addition of the 2 new email addresses required for graduate school, I now have a total of 9 (yes, NINE!) email addresses. Since I use fetcher and forwarding programs, I don’t have to check them all constantly (the programs redirect all of them to one email, so I only have to check that one), but I have to remember them all, and their requisite passwords.
I know that computers only have a specific amount of memory space. Do humans?
I know I have only a small (very small) space for remembering numbers. And my unwritten to do list never gets accomplished because I am always forgetting things. My unwritten grocery list meets the same fate. Am I exceeding my memory allotment in these instances?
