Summer Lovin' Sooooo Over

I had a positive, enjoyable AND productive day today. I was actually chipper AND motivated at work. It's enough to make me want to peek my head out the cellar door and try rejoining the rest of society. Possible causes:

• I had my first candy corn of the year on Saturday and its happy, sugary goodness has finally metabolized in my system.
  
• The Stewart / Colbert cover and interview in Entertainment Weekly.
  
• Plaster fell on my head during the never-ending home-improvement project.
  

Or, could it be this:

Behold! Glorious Autumnal Beginnings in my front yard!

And this:

Glorious Autumnal Weather Report from today!

And this:

Most Treasured Cashmere Hoodie I've been longing to wear for many weeks and was finally able to today.

I tried really hard to enjoy and appreciate summer. And I think I did an OK job. But truth be told...

Autumn kicks Summer's ass.

Every. Single. Time.


Happy October!
