I've found that each month of the year I have different traditions that mark the season and help me appreciate the different things in my life.
Every month is different just like the activities I do in them. October is my favorite month of the year and some of the things I MUST do are as follows:
~ Read The Traveling Vampire Show by Richard Laymon. It's honestly one of my all time favorite books.
~ Pumpkin carving and then baking the seeds. YUM!
~ Drink warm apple cider. Delicious!
~ Navigate a corn maze. Bonus points if it's "haunted."
~ Watch the following movies:
- The Legend of Sleepy Hollow (Disney animated version AND Tim Burton version)
- The Nightmare Before Christmas (I watch it again at Christmas time as well lol)
- Hocus Pocus
- Disney Halloween (from 1994)
- It's The Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown
I do watch TONS of other movies... any horror movie I can really lol but those I have to watch or it just doesn't feel right lol
And of course
~ dressing up and going to/ hosting a halloween party!
YES! I cry when I'm angry! But that does NOT mean I am "weak"or being an "overly emotional girl"
It means you are pissing me off and I'm frustrated that you don't understand me.
I'm sorry my physical response is to leak from my eyes. I can't help that.
I could try your tactic and throw a fist into the nearest unsuspecting wall. But when has that ever fixed things? Poor wall :(

I understand all to well! If leaky eyes is the worst reaction, I wouldn't worry to much about it :)
Tomorrow I can FINALLY take a break and let my brain take a vaca day *phew*
Seeing friends I rarely get to see ALWAYS recharges my batteries
Fall day of fun with pumpkin pancakes, haunted places, and corn mazes!
I can't fucking wait!
Today, a quote, that just epitomizes my day:
"Some people are like slinky's... it would just make you really happy to push them down the stairs"
Today actually FELT like fall.
I love fall! It's my favorite time of year by far and not just because of my favorite holiday (you guessed it Halloween!)
I love the warmish days where you need a hoodie but you can still wear flip flops.
I love the cooler/cold nights where extra blankets are required.
I love the colors! Oh the colors! Summer is pretty with shades of green and pastel flowers but fall.... Ruby reds, flaming oranges, golden yellows.... brilliant.
I love the crunch of the leaves under my feet. The sound, the feel...
I love the food involved with fall! Warm apple cider, squash, OVEN ROASTED PUMPKIN SEEDS! (my mouth is watering just thinking about it)
I love the activities of fall! Corn mazes, haunted houses, costume parties, going to apple orchards and pumpkin patches, and bonfires are just that much more fun when it's cooler out.
but most of all...
I love the SMELL of fall! Ripe apples, hay bales, and dying leaves.
Its like mother nature's shower before winter; crisp and refreshing.
The only downside is.... It means winter really is coming and I hate winter. But that's another story.
I hate, no strike that. LOATHE math. I understand it's important. I understand it's used everyday all around me. I respect math. But this doesn't change the fact that I LOATHE IT!
I think I've read the "status system" 10+ times so far and still only manage to to get that "It's a lot of intricate math".
For those math-driven people who understand it easily. Goodie Goodie Gum Drops for you! I am always impressed when people can sort through math equations easily for I will never think on that level. (no I am not being sarcastic)
*sigh* I'll just have to resign myself the fact that I probably won't ever really fully understand it. I'll just do what I do and let it do it's own thing.

I practically abhor. I just kind of blankly stair at the board or the work for hours on end, not able to do it, from sheer laziness and frustration, but mainly frustration.
I share you pain on this topic, most definitely. :|
yes, i am afraid i feel the same
