Fall

I finally feel like fall is here. In September, I told myself not to focus on what fall on the mainland means. (Or really, what fall in places with more seasonal variation means, e.g. Chicago, my last place of residence). I got psyched that surfing season was upon us, I delighted in the rare day where the "fall light" was present. But I still didn't really feel like it was fall. But now I do!

I finally changed the wreath on our door - it now contains fall leaves instead of flowers.

We're having a cold spell - all the way down into the 70s. Remember, it's relative. Today, I have the pleasure of wearing tights. And, Sunday evening, I felt super cozy, wearing my warm pajamas after a hot shower, eating ash-e-reshte.

We signed up for surfing again. If the waves aren't good enough to hold the surf contest, we'll start on Saturday.


Not fall related, but also good - The Amazing Race starts again tonight! Three hours of my two favorite shows - Gilmore Girls and AR.

"Cold spell"? Indeed, all is relative...maybe, just maybe I should add Hawaii to my list of "warm places to live in one day soon".

Can you spare a bowl of ashe-reshte for a freezing fellow blogette?

Also addicted to Gilmore Girls. Ok really, Tuesday nights on the WB period. GG gets better every season.

I don't really have a comment about this piece but I was wondering if I could maybe talk to someone about the cultures in hawaii and how they're differnt than the main lands, I'm doing a report on hawaii and I'm not finding anything on the web so if you could help me that would be great! just send me an e-mail at rain _thriller3@hotmail.com
