Dear Winter,
After 1. Numerous Venti Chai Tea Lattes from Starbucks 2. Trudging through a rain and wind storm carrying a heavy computer bag, a large box (bound for post office), and an umbrella (that tried to blow away) 3. Walking through my neighborhood that has golden and rusty red (wet) leaves on the sidewalk and Halloween decorations on stoops and in windows, and 4. Seeing this terrific illustration on SnuggleMuffin’s site…

I’m ready for you.
Don’t get me wrong… I’m officially excited it’s autumn, and I have nothing against it. In fact I quite love the autumn season: It smells good, the air starts to get cool, colors in nature get saturated and lovely, what’s old falls away and makes room for the new and exciting. Autumn’s great.
But I’m officially ready to have autumn usher you in, dear winter.
Bring on the snow! and hot cocoa! and cozy fires! and Christmas trees! and twinkle lights! and snowball fights! and…okay, you get the idea.

I look forward to seeing you again, ol’ friend.

Uptown Small Town
Clearly it’s been a long week for a lot of people… It’s Friday morning and three things have given me inner smile so far today:
1. A guy in crisp khaki pants, a navy blue sweater, and “business casual” brown loafers ninja kicking the fence along the Embarcadero in SF. (I can relate to this feeling)
2. A woman about 1/2 block from Starbucks drop her full cup of steaming coffee onto the sidewalk and just stop and stare at it. (I can relate to this feeling too)
3. My horoscope for today (I want to relate to this feeling):
Amen and Happy Friday! May we all have a vacation from responsibility this weekend.
