Thank God It's Friday I can tell you that when I woke up to the harsh, relentless blaring of my alarm, one of my first thoughts was: Thank God It's Friday. This week did go by fast, but it was painful. I hate getting up at 5 am (or anytime before 7:30am). I feel like I am getting more used to it, but it's still hard. As I took my wake-up shower, I planned out my day and my weekend. My goal is to do as little as possible this weekend, catch up on my reading, emails, writing, and sleep. Hopefully I will achieve this lofty goal. Of course I have some shows on the DVR to watch that I missed this week, such as Fringe, Supernatural, CSI Miami, Prison Break, NCIS. The desire to watch these wars with the desire to lay on my bed and read. But I think I will have to spend some couch time this weekend watching tv. Also I need to watch Primeval. I missed it last week, and I did not get my dose of Nick Cutter (played by Douglas Henshall). I seriously considered skipping my workout, but

Fall Is Here ( I found this picture on Flickr. It's by zwstr). I am very excited that fall has arrived. It is my second-favorite season (after winter). Here are the things I love about fall: The smell of autumn The cooler weather Halloween ( I love the inherent eerieness of dark, cool nights. I don't think Halloween being in the fall is a coincidence) Thanksgiving Knowing that Christmas is coming The relief of the hot summer weather More obligatory indoor time (for reading) yet it is cool enough to go outside and enjoy the outdoors When I was growing up in Illinois, I loved the colors of the leaves. We used to rake leaves and dive into piles of them. Wearing my cooler weather clothes like corduroy (I love it) and wool Being chilly (I love being cold) Fall foods like pumpkin, caramel apples, etc The new tv season I plan to enjoy the fall season. I am going to try to take some walks outdoors on the days I can squeeze them in. I also plan to get a pumpkin for Halloween this year.
