No, I didn't run away or forget this blog. I've been without the internet for quite some time. Then, mysteriously, the cable company turned it back on (no complaints here). So I decided to take the time to update my layout and write a quick blog.
It's fall! I LOVE FALL! It's my favorite time of year...The air is cooling down, although it doesn't really get nice here until about the first or second week of October. I love the cool, crisp morning and night air, the magical color changes of the leaves, and the nearing of Halloween, one of my favorite "holidays". I mean, how many times a year do you get to be someone else for a night? Unless you're a spy, or you have multiple personality disorder, but for the rest of us it's one night. I'm also a horror movie fanatic, so what better time to cuddle up and watch a scary movie than the "scariest" time of year.
Growing up, fall was also a special time of year for me. My dad would procure hay bales and cornstalks, and my mom (or my school) would take me to the pumpkin patch to pick out a nice pumpkin, and then we would make a cute harvest scene in our yard with the haybales, corn, pumpkin(s) and a scarecrow. This time of year was also special because it meant that my father, a farmer, would soon have some time off after he finished picking peanuts, and he *might* take my mom and I to the mountains for a weekend to enjoy the foliage and a picnic along the Skyline Drive/Blueridge Parkway.
Those were the days, eh?

Letter Three: Lessons in Sarcasm
Dear Lady Gaga,
I wish you would understand that making your videos so absurd that people scratch their heads and go, "WTF?" does not make you an 'artiste', it just makes you look stupid. I used to love you and your music. Now I just shake my head and change the station or channel. That is all.
Love,
Lucy the Pessimist
Dear Verizon,
When I have to return my phone because there is a manufacturer or software glitch, I would greatly appreciate it if you would give me a NEW PHONE! Otherwise, I end up with a refurbished piece of crap like this one, which has a touch screen that, get this: DOESN'T RESPOND TO MY TOUCH! I will be returning this one, too. That is all.
Sincerely,
Lucy the Pessimist
Dear Stalker,
I'm not your baby girl and I don't like you. If you can't figure that out, that's your problem. That is all.
Sincerely,
The Pissed Off Pessimist
Dear Kate Gosselin,
If you don't want your family photographed, don't have a television show that is about...YOUR FAMILY. Oh, and don't take them to major tourist attractions with camera crew in tow, as it just draws attention. That is all.
Sincerely,
Lucy the Pessimist
