Just more gorgeous autumn leaves...


I organized the first annual Pumpkin Carving and Cider Sipping at work. Mine is the little guy on the right.
The tap water is getting colder. My apartment hasn't been too cold or too hot (from my not being able to control the heat) yet. It's still pretty mild outside. I hear it's been 80 degrees in San Diego. I think it's best to love wherever you are, and I love that it's cool-to-chilly here. Today I went out in a sweatshirt and was fine, but the other day it was in the 40s and I was a little cold in my sweater, hat, and gloves. By the way, although I showed you pictures of the possible snow showers last week, it hasn't snowed in Boston yet. But it's snowing in places nearby...
This is a non sequitur, but light switches are outside of the residential bathrooms here. Have I mentioned this before? Aside from my being in the habit of reaching into a bathroom to turn on the light as I enter, it seems less practical this way. When you're trying not to wake someone up in the middle of the night, it's polite to enter the bathroom, close the door, then turn the light on. Unless you have octopus arms, this can't be done with the switch outside the bathroom. Since I have a few grandparents and an ex-boyfriend reading this, I'll clarify that this impracticality was brought up when my dad visited. See my halo?
My mom and brother are coming to visit me next week!
