Okie. Time to get the winter coat out and have it drycleaned; time to find my gloves.

That was frost on my car windows this morning, in places. Whee! It must be fall, it must be fall.

And as usual, I've been lulled by the last too-hot days into not getting ready for it, mostly.

A moody car?

Good grief.

Think you don't have enough of an emotional attachment to your car?

A new vehicle developed by Japan's Toyota Motor Corp and electronics giant Sony Corp will smile, frown and cry, not to mention take your pulse and measure your sweat.

Nope. Not joking. Rest of the article is here.

Ummm.

Frankly, that thing sounds dangerous. And annoying.

Nanowrimo.

Yes, I too have been drawn into NaNoWriMo.

Hah. I have a major coding push, may have to work overtime that month...but I have two weeks of vacation. I doubt I'll finish that much, honestly, but I've got a story I haven't given enough time to in my head. It's not done "sorting itself out" yet, but it's been doing that for three years, so I'm going to slap whatever I can on the paper.

Maybe I'll get something I can work from later, maybe I won't. It sounded fun.

I've got to be insane. I'll either be less talkative, or a whole lot more, next month....
