oh the seasons change.....







k summer....that's your hint to move on....as much as i adore the blistering heat, hazy afternoons and constant sense of lethargic "is this a dream? oh wait...no..." you've overstayed your welcome.
i do like a few things about summer, mind you. i love summer mornings and especially summer evenings with their radiant sunsets that melt into warm summer nights...i like bbq and smores, and ice cream...i like the fourth of july....
but the fourth of july was over a month ago....and i'm ready to trade bbq for hickory farm's sausage logs and cheeses, pretzels and pumpkin bread....i'm ready to trade even the warm summer mornings for crisp fall mornings and cold fall nights....(which will soon enough become WINTER nights! ah! i could die with joy for winter nights where the snow on the mountains and on the ground make the night bright even when the moon is hiding. woooo! but that's jumping ahead too much...)
i love fall clothes. i hate summer clothes. i can't wait to trade in my boring jeans, leggings and stupid short-sleeved shirts for sweaters, jackets and coats, and well...the jeans remain....
i can't wait to see the leaves turn into bright reds and flaming oranges...i can't wait to have hot drinks and walk down at riverwoods...i can't wait to go up to gateway mall and chill and not be thinking fml because it's so effing hot outside....
thuh end.
