nine twenty-three

Even though it doesn't necessarily feel like Autumn in Florida, it is baby! And this is my favorite time of year, no matter where I am living. I'm getting in the Halloween spirit and displaying my small stash of orange and black decor. Seems a little early, but I have been hungry for holidays ever since I "took down" Christmas last year.

There are two huge events happening in October aside from Halloween. The first, and more exciting of the two, is a trip I'm taking out to San Francisco. I'm meeting my older sister there and we're going to take a letterpress class together here. I can hardly wait!

The second exciting thing would be my 29th birthday, which is on the 29th. The last hurrah of my twenties. I've spent them mostly in Florida (I came here when I was 22) which is significant to me. I like to think of my new year as the perfect time to make some quality resolutions for myself. If I do come up with a list, I'll probably be a bit more keen on sticking to it and sharing my progress here. (By the way, I am still free of Diet Coke and all "diet" products - no artificial sweeteners for me! That's been going strong since January 01, 2008.)

The week seems to be moving quickly; in my world, it´s Wednesday night making tomorrow Thursday, making Thursday Friday. Confusing! But worth it.

I love Halloween. There is no better holiday. On a crazy note, you should do what my grandmother does and leave your Christmas tree up all year round and decorate it according to the holiday. Easter tree, Forth of July tree.

Also, the San Francisco Center for the Book looks incredible. That is so exciting.
