i’m currently in burrito/cocoon mode. the words “frost advisory” were just repeated to me and i refuse to process then. it’s barely october, can we wait to freeze for at least another month!? when i leave work now it’s darker; in a way it’s okay because the sun at a very specific level on the way home made it extremely difficult to see to drive. i have my windows open and i will not be closing them. they’re down so it’s not like i have them flung open inviting the world in. i sleep better when there’s a little chill and i get burrowed in.
i made my first batch of baked apples earlier. dad was talking about making some so i decided i needed to make them too, lol. the house smells so good still. i also have a apple cider scented tart in the burner in my living room so the place has smelled good all week. i don’t mind the scents and flavors of fall… i mind the freezing and descent into darkness. :-P i’ve got my alarm set to get up and get my pork tenderloin started in the crock pot. i intend to shred it, barbecue it, and devour it. my mom asked if i remembered to get buns… buns get in the way of the good stuff! it’ll suit my needs while i watch football from 1pm all the way through the 8:30 game.
i guess i should eventually sleep. a couple nights ago i ended up taking a sleep aid for the first time in a year. my mind was moving a thousand miles a minute and i knew i’d be 3 or 4am getting to sleep. it doesn’t knock me out but i definitely feel when it starts to hit. tonight i’m hoping to not need one.
