Savoring what's left of fall break

Fall break is brilliant. Absolutely brilliant. To celebrate, here's a list of things that remind me of fall:

1. "The Beautiful Letdown" album by Switchfoot
2. Dan in Real Life
   
3. The Pumpkin Spice latte
4. MLB playoffs
5. High school football games
6. A Hard Day's Night
7. Twilight
8. "Forget and Not Slow Down" album by Relient K
9. Sherlock Holmes
10. Apple crisp

Also, the marching band festival was great. The band placed fourth in their division out of 12 bands and they were the smallest band in the entire competition. I was impressed and excited - and exhausted. It was a very long day with a lot of crazy kids and crazier parents. And, aside from an odd Starbucks encounter, a prolonged hunt for non-concession stand food, an even longer search for a pregnant lady, wiping gravel dust off Dinkles and getting locked out of our house, everything went pretty smoothly.

In conclusion, I would like to share that I think my dreams may be set in some obscure TV show time warp. Last night I dreamed that Milo Ventimiglia and Taylor Lautner were superheroes competing for my fancy. I'd like to tell you which one won it but I wouldn't know. Also, I think Jim Parsons was involved to some extent, thrown into the mix of random people I actually know.

I turned on the TV first thing this morning and Gilmore Girls was on. Milo happened to be a key player in this episode. I don't know what to make of it, but I'm not worried. :)
