Subject: October is here
“So guys, what do you like about October?”
“Didn't you ask us this about September? Are you going to blog this? Isn't that a cop-out?”
“Yes, Yes, and No. I think it's an interesting post. Besides, it doesn't preclude us from posting other things throughout the month. We did have a poor September though.”
“Not as bad as the damn Mets..”
“Very true. I'll give you time to grieve before I collect on our bet.”
“Right. So..October. What do you guys feel about October?”
“What do YOU feel?”
“Fine. I'll go first. I really like all the leaves changing and the storms and the wind. It's very poetic. Perfect for a writer.”
“I love decorating. October starts Halloween, then Thanksgiving, then Christmas. Lots of decorating opportunities.”
“You putting up that creepy witch again this year?”
“Yes. I don't understand what you find creepy about it. She's just a witch.”
“I think It's her nose. Creepy. My favorite thing about October is the people. While some people get nastier from the holiday stress, most are a lot more friendly. At work, many regular customers, as well as employees, bring in cookies and candy and all sorts of goodies.”
“Baseball. It's October, it's the holy month. Playoffs, World Series. Lets go Yankees!”
Sara fixes Frank with a very evil stare. “That's usually my favorite thing about the month. This year I'm thinking about taking a renewed interest in hockey. The season starts this week.”
“Oh. My turn? October huh. The leaves? No you said that. Oh! Of course, Pumpkin Pie, Apple cider, especially spiced, and Apple pie!”
“Food. Gee, we never would've guessed that one.”

"Keep your fork, there's pie."
When I got married the first time, it was October. My second wedding took place in May. I like Spring better than fall :)
But as noted, October means baseball (my condolences to the Mets fans) and perhaps another Yankees World Series victory.
And hockey. And now that I have TV again, all is right with the world.
Fall's my favorite season, second is winter. NY is so nice during those two seasons. Of course its probably because all we have down here is summer and summer-lite. Maybe I'll have to go up there during fall, I feel a NY shopping spree coming on.
