My brother got promoted this past Monday. My family went to the ceremony. This is completely unrelated to everything else, but I wanted to acknowledge my little brother’s hard work and accomplishment in making SFC.

Despite being one of the most miserably hot times of year, I like being outside and doing stuff, but really, August makes me sad.  Once September starts and the days start getting shorter (slowly but surely) and cooler (heh. Not really, not til November here in TX, but…) it just feels like a little…death…to me.  I somewhat mourn the loss of my summertime.

It’s silly, I know, but there it is, another one of my neuroses.

I try to keep in mind some of the better aspects of fall and winter in Texas…like I can start wearing hoodies again, while wearing shorts or I can wear flipflops almost year round or I don’t really have to wear tights or hose if I don’t want to…or I can start wearing deeper shades of makeup and more dramatic liner without it sludging down my cheekbones.  See? I can find the bright side!

What do you look forward to in the fall season? Cooler weather? Dramatic makeup? Those supercute outfits where you can wear the little jacket with a shirt and skirt with tights and boots and not look completely ridiculous because the sun’s out and you’re forsaking comfort for fashion?

I think having that little part of the beauty world to anticipate really gets me over the hump, and kind of keeps my mind off the fact that my days of sitting by the pool for the year are diminishing rapidly.  What about you?
