This should probably have its own category, really.
Stupid Texas weather. It's October. The highs are still in the 80s. I want FALL.
My garden is still producing. I'm still getting tomatoes (though I have lots more blossoms than tomatoes. Maybe there's not enough bees around anymore?). I have a new squash plant that just started blooming. My basil is trying to bloom again.
It's nice that the garden is still producing, but it just seems so wrong. Even after all the years I've lived here, it just seems wrong.

Stupid Florida weather. It's hot and I'm sweaty and it's October. My children have never seen snow. I've seen it ONCE in 1996. It's in the 80s/90s here.
You would never know that it was fall. The leaves don't change, it doesn't get cold.
As Toad would say, "Blah."

Posted by: Kolbi on October 6, 2003 09:35 AMCome on up to northwest Indiana. You'll get more than enough fall weather. It's 61 degrees, the sun is shining, and a soft breeze is blowing. Of course with the beautiful fall comes horrid, slushy, dirty, frigid WINTER!!! And pretty soon it'll be dark at 5:15. That means the kids are inside all day. ALL DAY. I think I could stand to live in Texas. :-)

Sniff. I love winter. I love snow. And here, the kids are inside ALL DAY in summer, because they don't want to play in the heat. Bleah. I think we should try trading, Shannon.
Kolbi, I remember going to school in Ft. Walton Beach. One day there were three tiny flakes of snow in the air. They cancelled school and sent us all home. LOL
