October. There are many nice things about this time: good leaf colors, nice crisp sleeping nights, fresh air. And then there are the others: turning the furnace on, waking up in the dark, cold feet in bed. The best thing about October is that January comes that much sooner than it was going to in September, and then the days will start showing more daylight.

This is how pessimists make believe that they are optimists.
