    Oh, yay! It might be pushing it, but mayhap some of you even like the pretty fall we're coming into, my favorite, including rain! I love the way it smells.

    Agreed! I can't wait to drive to the coast here, soon. The drive is so pretty in fall... I've never lived anywhere else, so there's not a whole lot of comparison, but I have to say I love Oregon!

    Good morning! I'm doing all I can not to turn on the heater yet. I'm not looking forward to the electric bill spike! However, I am beginning to layer on the sweaters and Under Armor....

    I'm so stoked it's Friday! Unfortunately not too many big plans for the weekend - school and packing. We're moving soon! Not far, but still, all the stuffs gotta go somewhere!

    Class Saturday morning, and an Asian barbeque in the evening? Ditching homework! :wink:

    Anybody going to see Zombieland?

    Yeah, Zombieland's a movie that just came out. I opted for the 3D Toy Story double feature instead. :happy:

    Also LOVING the weather! :love: Every time I step outside it's a little chilly, but not too cold, and it smells and looks beautiful! Why can't it be fall all year round?

    I'm planning on moving this weekend... yay! :drinker:
