Have you forgotten what a deadline means? You’ve got another two weeks.

-Holbrook

Well, there had been that arrangement back then. I had been promised total freedom to write anything I wanted and to submit a blank sheet of paper if I felt like it, but something had changed. He still wanted a column, no matter what the arrangement had been. It looked like the admiral’s blood was slowly becoming the fluid of an editor. I put the letter and envelope down in my lap and looked out over the ocean. The air was hot and still and I remembered what Paula had said yesterday. She was getting tired of summer and wanted it over, and I could see her point. It was hard to do your work with so many people around you, vacationing and having a good time. Their sense of relaxation and play was intoxicating, and it was hard to keep focused, something like being a janitor in an opium den. In a few weeks Labor Day and the traditional end of summer would be upon us, and the tourists and their intoxication would leave.

But I had so much to do in that time. The Petro Star. My column. And my promise to Felix, and in remembering that promise, I thought with another smile of Christy, and decided Felix would be the first I would attend to, later today. In the meantime, the waves were something to look at.
