turn, turn, turn

Dammit:

1. Must now wear long-sleeved shirts and PJ bottoms at home, instead of running around bare-legged.
2. Must now wear socks and proper shoes.
3. Must constantly moisturize as skin reverts to paper-y husks.
4. Must always bundle up with scarves, and socks, and mittenses before going out.
5. Motivated only to eat and hibernate. What is this exercise you speak of?
6. Darkness ensuing at 3PM.

Shiny!:

1. Soon will be the time for Java Logs.
2. Soups and stews and the joys of crockpot-ery.
3. Burrowing into flannel sheets.
4. Multi-hued trees.
5. House feline rediscovers adoration of warm-bodied human. Cuddling ensues.
6. Guilt-free couch-potato-ing as it's too dark and cold to leave home. Time for another LotR marathon!

Five most immediately anticipated social events:

1. Rob and Kelly's Tuscan Dinner (featuring guest of honor: Jeanne!!)
2. Baking Halloween cookies with Jeff!
3. Thanksgiving!
4. Making Christmas-cookie boxes this year!
5. Christmas-card making party at Jeff's!

Of course Jeff insists there is only a 4-degree range of temperature I find acceptable. And I know it's only Fall and not the dead of Winter, but I almost turned on the heater last night! And though a weather-wimp, I'm also remarkably cheap about turning on the heater, so that's a clear sign that Summer! Is! Ending!! (Yes, I am aware it's October.)

I really hate the early dark. Even getting out of work at 4:30, it's dark just far too soon.

Hahaha, so I posted this comment on someone else's journal accidentally - she was really confused. Anyway:

I don't know if this is too late, but here's what my realtor has to say about plumbers:

I actually don't need a plumber for my clients quite as often as some of the other professions, so this plumber is recommended primarily because a contractor I know uses him a lot.

Bob Otley 206-510-3385

As always, let the plumber know that you were referred to him by me. I've noticed that when people disregard this little caveat, occasionally the contractor doesn't show up. They seem to work harder when they know they've been referred by a Realtor and have a vested interest in continuing to be referred.

(And my realtor's name is Irene Potter if you do want to give her name.)

Ahem, that was me. I'm such a flake.

Thanks so much--I've got someone lined up for Friday, but if he doesn't work out, I'll give your guy a call. Thank you!

Hee, LJ has been logging me out lately, so I keep posting anonymously too!

And I figured it was you :)
