AUTUMN FALLING

Monday marked the first day of autumn, my favorite time of the year!  Today marks the first day I’ve had a minute to write about it!  LOL!!!

The weather has been so awesome the past couple of weeks with cooling temperatures that I wish I could broadcast my show is some outdoor studio!  I admit I’m not usually much of the outdoor type - until this time of year, that is, due to the moderate climate conditions.  I’m even arranging a short trip this Sunday to Chimney Rock, NC with my mom, my aunt, my dog Molly and possibly Rebecca.

Let’s not forget another reason I love this time of year:  the holidays!  It’s a three month onslaught of indulgence with Halloween (CANDY CANDY CANDY!!!) in October, Thanksgiving (FOOD FOOD FOOD!!!) in November and, of course, Christmas (GIFTS GIFTS GIFTS!!!) in December!  Granted, Christmas is technically in winter but, let’s face it, winter doesn’t usually get sucky around here until January and February which, in contrast, are my least favorite months of the year!  Not that I try to dread any part of the year, but those months are just so dismal!  I guess after a three month high (not that kind of high!  Drugs are bad, mmm-kay?!) I go into a bit of a new year low.

Anyways, I’m already looking past my favorite time of year, what the hell is wrong with me?  Autumn is falling and the holidays will soon be upon us!  And, for those of you who don’t already know, this will only be my second holiday season not working in retail!  Last year was a great holiday relief for me!  I’m sure this year will only be better!
