What is it about this time of year that makes me want to skip down the street and throw my hands up in the air with glee? Well, I’ll tell you.
Fall is the absolute perfect time of year. In the fall, you can wear boots or you can wear open-toed shoes without being judged. In fact, you can get away with both your summer and winter wardrobes or any combination there-of. You may not be allowed to wear white, but off-white is damn close, and perfectly acceptable.
In the fall, the whole world around you is bursting with color. Flowers are still vibrant, trees are not just a boring old green, and is there anything more astonishing than the brilliant orange carpet of leaves lining the sidewalks?
At home, you can leave the windows open all night, and you can shower in the morning with hot water and not have to worry about swamp ass before you ever leave the house. You can pull out that big, fluffy comforter for your bed, but still walk around the house in your undies with no need for a sweater.
You don’t HAVE to shave your legs; but of course if you really want to, you can show those smooth beauties off. Because you are not yet required to wear long pants, panty-hose, or even socks.
You can still enjoy a margarita on your deck, or you can settle in your comfy couch with a full-bodied glass of red wine or a dark, delicious pumpkin beer.
Ha! Speaking of pumpkin… No, I won’t even go there. We might be here forever if I started listing all the joys of pumpkin. (okay, just a few… pumpkin coffee, pumpkin candles, pumpkin baked goods of every variety, pumpkin body lotion, pumpkin condoms (kidding!), and of course, pumpkins!)
So if you are one of those people who does not think that fall is hands-down, the very finest season of the year, well then we’ll just have to agree to disagree (but I’m right, and you know it).
