I'm tired already (but happy)

What happened when I went to the Texas Book Festival last year.
Teachers, I apologize in advance.
Son, you threw me under the train but I love you anyway.


I realize I'm a lightweight when it comes to tours, parties and wine, 
but this fall is looking busy, fun and busy. 

I'm hoping to see you some of you at some of these places. 
I've linked to event details where possible.
