I just love the Fall or Autumn… whichever you chose to call it. I love the cooler temperatures, the falling leaves that crunch under my feet, and I love the fall holidays… okay, mostly I just love Thanksgiving. It has the best food.
It seems strange that November is here. Didn’t we just get this year rolling a couple of months ago. And on that note, we are heading into 2010. How do you say it?
Is it Two thousand and ten or Two thousand ten or just Twenty-Ten? I’m going with Twenty Ten. I like that – short, sweet and not much to toss out.
I never did get the 0s down — like Two thousand nine or Two thousand eight. I really have missed the nineteens these past many years. They were easy to say – Nineteen Eighty-One. No worries, no concerns, no alternatives. Well, I guess you could have said One thousand nine hundred eighty-one… but that would have sounded…. well just strange.
So now that we’ve muddled through the random that is my brain. Welcome to a tiny bit of my world and the things that perplex me.
What is your favorite part of Fall … oh, and how do you say 2010?
Fall? Nothing good about a face plant …. but if you mean Autumn {messing with another cultural difference}, love having to grab a cardy in the arvo but still swimming in the day.
And 2010? All those math you see-ers would say ‘two-tee, one-tee’
FOOTBALL of course. ROLLLLLL TIDE!!!!!
I do like the leaves falling though. Reminds me of my childhood. We use to rake and burn leaves for my grandmother weekly.
I’m with Sabrina – football! And I’m a lover of Thanksgiving. And then there’s the clear blue skies and crisp air. The whirling leaves, pumpkins, Indian corn, corn stalks bundled together, plaid wool… redneck weddings…okay, I’ll stop now.
All this talk about fall is making me hungry for another pumpkin pie. Wait we already made 3 before November.lol
Fall is also when we have our annual bonfire. Wish you could come Mary. It’s in two days. Don’t worry, I’ll eat a smores for you.
Fall is definitely wonderful for the colors and the first snows here.
20-10 works for me.
Hugs, friend.
20-10? I like it! Short and sweet, and it makes sense. It is the same as 19-10, so why not?
