Or don't.
Actually, no, don't.
Except, I do like October, with its autumnal tones and its coolness. It's a strikingly beautiful month, one in which I am blessed to be able to see the orange glow of the sun's awakening. Then November will roll along and I will miss saying a hearty Good Morning! to a sun which won't rise until I get into work.
Speaking of the sun rising, there is a distinct lack of this morning. Sun is currently hiding behind big fat grey rain clouds. He has the right idea; I would like to spend the day hiding too.
My menstrual cycle is currently in the phase of Vivid Dreams Which Become Less Vivid Upon Wakening & Are Completely Forgotten By Nine AM. This is both fascinating {the dreams} and frustrating {the forgetting}. Surely, with all the technology the world possesses, some scientist somewhere has come up with a way for our dreams to be recorded? Not that I would necessarily want mine played back to me, but the option to do so would be nice.
I finally see Sun! He is a tiny sparkle of diamond reflected in the torso of a faraway plane, peeking out from the clouds.

Maybe - much like the internet - it could be fitted with filters, or parental controls.

bless yer heart, i dislike these shorter days, too. will be feedin' the horses via flashlight way too soon. how fortunate though that the sun finally peeked a gentle howdy. been rainin' here since 'bout 9:30pm last eve. last check 'twas 'lready 5", the whole place's a swamp. the horses need rain galoshes, possibly e'en hip waders'n a couple 'f snorkels.
the rain 'twas most needed, though i'd preferred jest perhaps'n inch 'r 2. 'pposed to do such all week. a reminder perhaps 'f the dinosaur era, when this place 'twas true swampland?
'tis most rare i recall any dreams, then 'tis jest fer fleetin' moments 'pon my wakin'. prolly fer the best they've not the technology fer recordin' such. though the good'uns might be helpful?

So, with global warming will your locality become swamp land again? Apparently my house will be underwater in one hundred years. *gasp*

It's sunny here. I thought it was supposed to rain today, but Bing says that it won't.

I hope that Bing wasn't fibbing!

Yeh, I hope someone's woken the Green Day guy up, or he'll be peeved!
