Maybe it is fall.
I have been grumbling this week. A little. Last week still felt like summer. Then this week we jumped to winter (in my Georgia-girl opinion. Yank..., ahem... Friends from the North-no comments, please.) My whole gripe is that I am going to have to go from a high electric bill to a high gas bill. I didn't get the month off. That is fall to me--my month off. Cool evenings. Pleasant days. Don't need air. Don't need heat. I can wear a jacket, but don't have to if the outfit doesn't call for it. GA Power and GA Natural Gas don't own my paycheck. Ahhh fall. But not this week.
Until last night. What was my change of heart? A pumpkin latte. Yes, that is all it took. A brisk evening with the chill in the air and a yummy pumpkin latte. Those only taste good if it is chilly. And even I can recognize that. So, I resign to the fact that it is not going to be a month off. But, I have a new drink. So, even-steven.
