October prickles

It's October, folks. OCTOBER.

Not "the holiday shopping season." Not "time for a six-month portfolio checkup" or "time to check the batteries in your smoke detector."

Step back. Enjoy the cooling in the weather. Use your daylight wisely before the time change later this month. Have a cup of coffee and leave your decorations for whatever holidays you were thinking of in the closet.

And hope you're not working on the night of the time change.

It's just October.

I know! Then it'll be November then December then 2006!!! And then 2007, 2008, 2009 2010!

So when does autumn start officially? I thought it happened Sept. 22 this year or do you go by the color of the leaves as the official start? or the stormy weather? or the pumpkins in the grocery store? or the masks and broomsticks and lanterns in the holiday aisle of walmart or equivalent? Oh wait that's Halloween not autumn.

Augh. You're right; the autumnal equinox was 9/22/05.

This is the 2nd time I've gotten mixed up today. The 1st was when I convinced myself that the LUE (instead of RUE) was the pre-ductal extremitiy. That was embarrassing.

Maybe something is up with my brain too.
