i fall for autumn

Oh how I love the signs of fall. Crisp chill in the air. Fall foliage. Tiny and varied assortments of baby squashes at the greenmarket. Hot apple cider. Scarves. Lower electricity bills. Soup for dinner. The harvest moon. Halloween (though seeing Halloween candy and costumes in September makes me melancholy). Dry skin (because my skin is usually oily).

For the record, how I hate the signs of fall. Cold rain. Short daylight hours. The countdown of shopping days left until Christmas. Halloween (I miss my 2 best friends during this time). The impending arrival of winter. Having to wear warm socks and closed toed shoes constantly.
