Its been dark, dank, dismal– and sometimes quite windy. Gerick and I opted to spend the entire weekend holed up at home, watching movies, listening to music, taking care of kitties and half-grown chickens. Neither of us felt like doing anything even remotely ambitious beyond cleaning the apartment. Oh, and he finished his Minotaur head mask. (Its incredible. I'll post pics soon.) The finishing touches were done this morning.
We've been invited to 2 Halloween parties this year, both put on by friends of his from work who throw quite the elaborate shindigs. We've considered doing one of our own, but he and I both feel rather burnt out hosting. Our October social schedule is quickly filling up. When did we become these social butterflies, huh? Its exciting but exhausting. We're trying to balance out our obligations better with lazy weekends like these last couple of days.
Meanwhile, the storm that blew through had its moments, but I don't think we got half the rain they expected. We still broke records all over the place for the month of September– because its usually drier than this in early autumn. The biggest problem was falling trees from saturated soil combined with trees still heavy with leaves and high winds. The worst is pretty much over now, and we came out of it okay.
Overall, I'm feeling… just weird. Out of sorts. Maybe its the shift in weather (although I was longing for some wind and rain actually) or maybe its the shift to being indoors all the time instead of spending part of every day outside. Whatever it is seems to be making me feel as if I don't fit into the world correctly or something. I hate that feeling.
Meh.
