fall in!

oh yeah, this is my favorite time of year. looking outside the weather is clear, windy, temperature is dropping a bit and the trees like the chinese pistaches are riotously changing colors. and and and! daylight savings time ends tonight. that means we gain an hour. i'm not a fan of daylight savings time but when we fall back and gain that hour. . .plus, i love walking home in the cold and dark of early evening when the city lights up like a christmas tree. sheeeeiiiiit!

we just got home from the flu clinic where nick and i got our vaccines, nick in nasal spray form and me with a needle injected right in my jack o'lantern. sure my arm is aching a bit. but what the fuck. we also have a new member of the family. we adopted a new 5-month old kitty. still working on a name and he's still a little unsure of his surroundings. he's made a little boy so happy. nick's tended to him since we got home. watching him reminds me even if the world seems to be going to hell there is still so much love to share with the world. okay.
