top ten of fall

I hate the cold with a passion. I would happily live in hell, er, Phoenix for the rest of my life. But even I have to admit that it's kinda fun to get out the unattractive/cozy footwear. Hello Uggs! So ugly, hence the name, but OH SO COZY!
This is my TOP TEN for this time of year:
10. Auntie Gracee pulls out the Davey Jones mask to freak out unsuspecting children/adults.
9. Buh-bye to yard work for about 7 months.
8. I don't get weird looks from anyone when I order hot chocolate.
7. It's finally acceptable to sit in front of the fire while I watch TV. I do it all year, but now I can do it without disapproving comments from my family.
6. Ditto on #7 but sleeping with a heating pad.
5. I can let my feet go! Nobody knows if I have chipped toenail polish.
4. I get to wear my coat that makes me look like the marshmallow man.
3. Taco soup.
2. It's socially acceptable for my kids to flaunt their obsession with creepy stuff.
1. Seat heat in the car.

PS - You may have noticed that I somehow lost the sidebar with all my friends' blog addresses. Please leave a comment so that I have your addresses again. Thanks.
