Changing Leaves

The drive to Tennessee was pretty uneventful, a little boring but not too bad. I made a trucker laugh because I was rocking out to Wynona Judd's "No One Else on Earth". I mean, I was singing so passionately, I was SANGING. I also was very entertained for a few miles with the semi's behind me that took turns boxing cars in. I swear to god they had a 'game' going on. I would totally do that if I were a trucker. I would RULE the road.

Driving in to the state was a little bizarre. I mean, truthfully, I haven't been gone 'that' long. It seems like things have changed and things have stayed exactly the same. I wanted the leaves to be more colorful, but what can you do? Pinch mother nature's ass and tell her to get on with it? I don't think so. 

I want it to feel more fall-like in Florida. It's getting there though. Very brisk in the mornings and evenings. Still hovering around 80 during the day though. Although, knowing me...I would complain it's too cold like I did in Tennessee, lol. I like wearing long-sleeved shirts under T-shirts. Maybe that's my problem. It's a fashion issue!!

My aunt was sick while I was there and I threatened her life and tried really hard not to breathe around her. Alas, I have gotten sick. My throat is killing me and I woke up with clogged sinuses. It might not be her fault but that's who I'm blaming anyway.

Took some great pictures at Frozen Head! I especially like the centipede that looks like a pile of poop. Talk about camouflage! BRILLIANT! Flickr it.

So now it's back to the grindstone. We're above sales at the restaurant so they are talking about staying open for a while longer, but right now that's all that it is, talk.

I enjoyed the mini-vacation though. I think it's exactly what I needed. I got recharged, refreshed, inspired, and it was lovely. 

I think I want a pumpkin
