Favorite Month

September 2008 is gone. October is generally my favorite month. Not because my birthday is Sunday. Or a number of other birthdays in/close to this month (evidence that January and February are cold? ;-)). Never did much regarding Halloween growing up, so that's not been too big a deal for me, either.
It's because of weather like this morning. Cool, dry, breezy. Low hanging stratocumulus. Leaves starting to turn. Pumpkin pie. Sure, it's the beginning of the road to winter, and winters can depress me with long cold spells, but I like now.
Edit to Add: My new office mate hails from Puerto Rico. She's been awaiting the fall cool-down with a mixture of excitement and fear (more so for the coming winter). This morning she walked to campus wearing flip-flops. At 43 degrees F. Let me just say I don't think she'll be doing that again. ;-)
