Fall is finally here...
« on: September 22, 2008, 12:16:37 pm »
Bout dang time. So I made a list of things that are totally awesome about fall:

Not having to have the A/C on max when you ride with the windows down and still sweating away. Summer sucks

No more 190 degree leather seats when I leave for work. Blistering hair removal FTL!

Football

Camping out and actually needing a fire to stay warm... till you get in the tent.

Being able to keep my shop doors open and not have to worry about bugs so stinking much.

Four wheeler rider

Freezing to death watching high school/college football, drag race or whatever other sporting event you like but not caring.

NO MORE MOWING!!!!

I can hide my sagging man boobs, and bird legs with layers upon layer of clothes and feel HAWT!... I mean hot. Because of the layers... sweating.. crappy joke.

Finally the wife wants to snuggle

Gotta love Halloween and the candy. Kids love the candy, I love carving pumpkins.

Mopar night next month in Tulsa.

Gotta love this time of year. Fall > all other seasons

Though as a fellow Okie, I gotta point out football season. Too much Sooner crap.

Other than that, I love fall. It's my favorite season.

I like football (not a huge fan), I just hate the Sooners. (Well, their fans, actually)

could be worse, you could live in Bama. You'd get stabbed if you said anything but praise about Bear Bryant.

Either way fall rocks. Where in Okie do you live? I moved outta there 2 1/2 years ago but I go back to visit this weekend.

Fall ---my bottom---... Its 82 degrees here in Illinois today, and thats cooled off a bit! Once we get down to the 60's in mid october, thats when it gets awesome. Half of November is spent out of school (we only have one full week in Nov.), Thanksgiving = my moron uncle Deep frying a turkey/chicken/house, Dad gets  in a good mood the day after cause whatever store he is running is idiotically busy, deserts from then till christmas, fresh snow, holiday spirit, Macys is all decorated nice, the mall isn't depressingly empty, Christmas break, PRESENTS!!, New years party, then everything goes down hill. January through March sucks. The temperature stays the same but instead of being associated with the Holidays, its just sluchy and bitterly cold. School gets harder with no end in sight.

Fall is only awesome because it leads to winter and the fact that they sometimes mix is even better. Nothing better than watching football while its snowing so hard you cant see the end zones.

That reminds me.

Q. Why did Humpty Dumpty have a great fall?
A. To make up for a rotten summer.

I would like fall if I didn't have terrible seasonal allergies.
Old, but not obsolete.

I didn't find this summer to be that bad, we actually had rain this year.  I got to cut my lawn like 10 times this year compared to once or twice last year(i think the gas in my lawn mower is like three years old).  Plus it was nice to look at green grass instead of brown dead grass. 

But yes fall is the best season.

man lots of okie's huh. crazy. I did not know about the show here in Tulsa. I'm supposed to start a new job tomorrow so I may have less time to work on stuff but should have a bit more cash to get the stuff I really want!

oh and another thing that rocks about fall is you almost never have an ice storm here :D Ice storms are cool by them selves it's just the no power that sucks so much. have to get out the portable heater again as we may need it come January/Febuary
