This morning we finally have some BEAUTIFUL RAIN! Mother Nature has been on my “list” for 2 weeks now. It is FALL, Lady! It is NOVEMBER. The schedule calls for brisk 50-60 degree weather to go along with the bright shining fall sun, not 80 FREAKIN’ DEGREE SHORTS WEATHER!! What gives? I want my boots! I want my sweaters! I want to wear my new french scarf! (wah!). Fall is my favorite season. Don’t be messin’ with my fall. It is my day off today and I woke up to rain and am so happy! Do you think I’ll be pressing my luck if I make soup for dinner tonight?
For those of you who’ve been following my blog, you already know about LOLCATS. I subscribe to the www.icanhascheezburger.com site to get my daily dose of LOLS. Here is a cute one from this morning:
Icanhascheezburger is an equal opportunity LOL provider. It isn’t only for CATS, even though that is the primary demographic. Speaking of LOLs, yesterday, while I was on Flickr, I noticed they added a new language to their “greetings” banners. Do you know what I’m talking about? When you log onto Flickr, it says “Hola Denise” (or actually, your name) and every time you refresh, it puts up “hello” in another language and “now you know how to say hello in spanish” or whatever. They’ve recently added LOLspeak. TOO FUNNY! So i had “O HAI DENISE! Now you know how to say Hello in LOLspeak” on my page yesterday.
And finally… my favorite time of year for photography. This is the view of Fitch Mountain in Healdsburg (on the right) and the Russian River that winds around Fitch Mountain. Our house is on the other side of Fitch Mountain- 2 blocks from the river (and do we ever walk over? not enough.) This is from a new natural park that just opened up. We explored it one HOT day last last week. Despite the wretched heat, the fall colors are in full swing here. Below, a vineyard down the road from our house.
So that’s all i got for today – but i will be stamping up 15 Christmas Gifts for a Packaging Swap this Monday night. In my studio, with my iPod, in my slippers…. while the rain comes down. Aahhhhh. Happy Fall, y’all!
