I am so excited because I walked out of the house today and it was actually cool! Of course, it was 90 degrees by lunchtime, but this morning! I almost thought about going back inside for a light jacket!

I obviously get way too excited about this shit.

In other news, my cake was totally eclipsed by this awesome cheescake one of the ladies made with crumbly toffee chips on top. It was quite delicious. Oh, well. Back to the drawing board (these potlucks are going to turn me into a mad scientist baker, JFC).

JP took Spike to the vet today because he keeps throwing up all the time. Our little kitty was the model patient and JP said everyone was impressed with how well behaved and calm he was. They think he is okay, but suggested a couple of things for us to try, changing the food, etc.

I do have to admit our cats are pretty badass and that has everything to do with JP - he works with them a lot, training them, playing with them, and trying to keep a consistent sense of order in the group. You can take the wildlife ecologist out of the zoo, but you can't take the zoo out of the wildlife ecologist. Or something like that. I love the cats, that's no lie. But I spend a fraction of my time with them. JP walks out of the room and if the cats are awake, they are bound to follow him. It is hilarious and strange and adorable. 

Okay, done rambling for now. Ta!

So, it is fall again (well, not here - it's 80 degrees out) and I started thinking about my autumn-related weaknesses. They are, in no particular order:

- men in sport coats and fitted jackets
- sweaters with big buttons
- pumpkin-flavored food and drink
- caps with earflaps
- striped hand-knit scarves

I'm sure I have more, but that will do for now. How 'bout ya'll, LJ?

Ah-choo!

Today I had to put a coat on to go outside. I love autumn.  ♥

Don't get me wrong - I'll be sweating in shorts by the weekend. But now, it's nice. I love, love, love this time of year. ^_____^

It's pure nostalgia, happy memories that seem to bump into one another as soon as it gets cool. Football and pie and new sweaters. Halloween and the rush toward the holidays. Shopping and a fire in the grate and wrapping paper. Ridiculous? Yes. But I am going to bed with a smile on my face.

I had other news, but can't for the life of me remember what it was...
