Autumn goes on...

[kodalai]

My car has been in the shop for the last week, getting repaired
(finally!) and I've been renting a car. It's actually kind of sad, how
much nicer the rental car is than my car. It's an automatic, though.

The trees around here lately have been putting on some absolutely
gorgeous colors. Really wish I'd taken my camera to get a few shots
while it was still sunny and nice, before the clouds rolled in. We
have reds and oranges and yellows, sometimes all on the same tree on
the upper branches while the lower and most inner ones are still
green. I'm sure we'll get a sunny break eventually, but with the way
the rain is stripping the leaves off the trees, it may not be until
it's too late, sigh.

The house is all decorated for Halloween after all. The roommates
turned out to have a whole box full of decorations. I should take
pictures of those too -- can't wait for Christmas, at this rate.
There's actually a place to put a tree!

I've been doing a lot of overtime at work; both staying late to help
with heavy loads and coming in on weekends to work on additional
projects. Hopefully it will all come to something.
