Autumn is approaching

Fall and I are in a sort of love/hate relationship. 
What I love about fall
1. Walking through corn mazes.
2. Carving pumpkins.
3. (as a child) collecting candy on halloween, sorting and trading through the stash with my brother, and then giving the crap candy back to annoying late night bell ringers. 
4. Eating more hot homesome meals.
5. Apple orchids and the like.
6. The premiers of all the new seasons of television shows. Which reminds me, Boardwalk Empire is on tonight!
7. Shaving less frequently. Also, getting away with not wearing a bra. All small breasted ladies can vouch for the wonderful 9 month boob vacation. Wahooooo!
8. Watching the squirrels fight over one chesnut when 100's of them are in plain site. (I live next to two chestnut trees).
9. The amount of public body odor slightly decreases.
10. Inappropriate attire decreases.

What I hate about the fall
1a. I wear one layer of clothing indoors and I'm too cold.
1b. I wear 2 layers of clothing indoors and I'm satisfied.
1c. I wear 2 layers of clothing outdoors and I'm too cold.
1d. I wear 3 layers of clothing outdoors and I'm satisfied. 
1e. When I wear 2 or more layers of clothing, I get grundy's and feel like I'm suffocating.
2. Autumn leads to my least favorite season of all. 
3. Daylight is decreasing at an accelerated pace.
4. It's flu season. 
5. The grass and flowers are decaying.
6. Football.
7. Dry skin
8. Many beautiful species are migrating. I'll miss you lady bugs, monarchs, and most of all, waking up to song birds.

Before I created this list, I was sure that the bad would out rule the good. It turns out, I have less to crab about after all.
