the summer of 2006 is officially over...and i won't miss it a bit (not even when it gets to -25°F outside) since it was so ungodly hot. this is my 2nd fave time of year, because of all the leaves changing colors on the trees n'such.


yay, fall!!!

happy solstice!

I love fall

I hate winter.

Autumn

Thou comest, Autumn, heralded by the rain,
With banners, by great gales incessant fanned,
Brighter than brightest silks of Samarcand,
And stately oxen harnessed to thy wain!
Thou standest, like imperial Charlemagne,
Upon thy bridge of gold; thy royal hand
Outstretched with benedictions o'er the land,
Blessing the farms through all thy vast domain!
Thy shield is the red harvest moon, suspended
So long beneath the heaven's o'er-hanging eaves;
Thy steps are by the farmer's prayers attended;
Like flames upon an altar shine the sheaves;
And, following thee, in thy ovation splendid,
Thine almoner, the wind, scatters the golden leaves! - Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

I love autumn.

This time of year is awesome!

Enjoy it because it's going to be a quick one because of the cold weather. It will arrive early (I'm sure you noticed the leaves already) and the leaves will fall fast.

I love fall but it always makes me sad because I really really love summer and it means it is over.

lovemachine said:

yeah, i'm surprised at how early the leaves have turned this year.


true.

lovemachine said:

Our are falling already, and changed color, but I thinkit's gonna warm back up again. August was FREEZIN' so I think were gonna get it made up to us in October.

We had a great sunrise, yesterday, morning.

I'm definitely with you on this. Fall is a beautiful time of year. Winter just plain sucks.

JustErin said:

Me too.

so !

We won't talk about winter yet.

'Bout fucking time. I hate summer.

Roll on Winter!!! Let's get some bitter cold, bare-tree, British dawns to look at and get emotional about how beautiful they are.

If anything I'm goth! I hate emo kids...I was once (properly - no jokes) stalked by one.

Spookymuffin said:

Handclapsfingasnapz said:

for real. they turned up at my best friend's house one day. she used to catch the train up to london that I got to go to work just so she could watch me from the back of the carriage (i didn't know she was doing this for ages until she texted me saying "I can see you").

fall is my second favorite time of year too (next to spring, of course)!

it's all about the transitional seasons for me. they make me happy.

I didn't have a full summer. It feels like it went by so quickly. It was so rainy, too.

Man, I hate autumn. I fucking despise it. Screw all those colors, which indicate shit's about to fall off. Ugh... Give me green, give me flowers! Give me fields of LIFE! And the way the air starts to feel! Like all the life has been sucked out of it, with that chill behind it....

Ugh, I tried to plant a bunch of fall flowers outside my townhouse just to keep some color going so I'd feel better.
