the downside of fall

in all my excitement for cooler temperatures, changing leaves, apple orchards, and pumpkins i forgot about the downside of fall. that would be the waning daylight. the last couple days its been real tough to get up because its still dark out. im really against being up before the sun, but we are entering that time of year when the sun rises after i do. it hasnt helped that the weather has been gloomy and rainy the last couple days, either. i still think all the other good stuff will make up for it. especially if i can find a girl who will go on fall type dates with me. c'mon, who doesnt like an apple orchard with the leaves changing and a pretty girl by your side? personally, i love it.
