thefridayfive for today

1. Do you have the urge to do a Fall/Spring cleaning as soon as the weather turns?

Never, but I often end up cleaning anyway and I pass it off as seasonal cleaning rather than "I spent the past several months not doing a thing."

2. What tells you that the season (a certain smell, a certain taste, that sort of thing) has changed?

When coming into fall, we get a lot foggier. I start hearing the foghorn at night. I love the sound of the foghorn, and by now I can hardly imagine not hearing it this time of year, though of course I didn't before we moved to Staten Island when I was a kid.

3. What do you look forward to the most with the change of seasons?

Despite the lack of sun, I really do enjoy fall. The weather cools down, and it's okay to burrow under piles of blankets. By winter, I'm itching for sunlight again and warmth.

4. What is something that you probably should accomplish but won’t this season?

Answering this question :)

5. What is the most enjoyable part of the oncoming season for you?

I like Halloween. It's a weird holiday, but I love it.

I love Halloween, too.

It's just so much fun.

My son works at Spirit Halloween store, so I'm always exercising restraint when I pick him up. This year they have a lot of Roaring 20's costumes and the temptation is strong. Oh so strong.

If it helps, all that fringe isn't really period appropriate. (Wait, do you care?)

I love Halloween, it might be my favorite holiday.

Mine too.

I like the idea of hearing the foghorn. I feel the same way about the train that comes past just before midnight every night - it's not something I had before we moved to this house, but now if I'm away for a night, it feels weird not hearing it.

Some things just sink into your bones.
