Stream of consciousness:
My mind and fall in a state of transition.
Fall mornings have begun to creep in signaling the waking of the autumn goddess.
Autumn’s begun to turn the leaves left too long by Summer’s lazy frivolousness.
She’ll soon begin to push her golden light through the boughs of the fatiguing trees,
And lull them softly off to sleep so she can begin to blow about the fallen leaves.
For some very strange reason I have begun to feel very fall-ish lately; specifically when I sit in my philosophy class (though I have no idea why). I have been thinking a lot about picking pumpkins in the cool fall air, a chilly Thanksgiving, and those nice weekends when I can drink coffee all day because it keeps me warm. If you are a long time reader, you have no doubt picked up on the fact that fall is singularly my most favorite time of year. You can keep Christmas, or winter in general, summer for sure, and, to a lesser degree, spring.
Fall has great meaning to me as it has traditionally been the best time of year for the personal, family, and creative aspects of my life. Though it also is typically one of the most trying periods of the year for me. However, I always seem to find a way to come out on top. Though in contrast to that, the autumns of even numbered years are better than normal… I have no idea why, but that’s just how it has always ended up being.
Today, the morning was quite chilly reminding me of all of the good things coming in fall. I was completely unaware that I had turned on my car’s heater ever so slightly… though I refused to switch it back off even though it is summer. Furthermore, these past few days my house has seemed to smell just enough like the candles and holiday food to trick me into thinking that I was closer to those wonderful few weeks than I am.
I feel like I wasted your time.

For anyone who is following LOST closely, they know about dharmawantsyou.com. Well, the second test in this ARG (alternate reality game) is up… if you can manage to get into the site. As is expected, the sheer volume of people trying to get in for any season 5 info is very high. I was very disappointed when I got in to find it was nothing but an extremely simple puzzle. Maybe there will be something more to this game in the coming days… or maybe not. All i can say is that the mini-game is only fun once, maybe, twice.

Unfortunately WordPress commenting has been an issue since 2.6. So, I am now using Disqus (an external commenting platform) for comment handling. It is also tied to my Twitter and Flickr accounts.

Not quite sure why comments are not showing up on posts. I think I will do some investigating…

Okay, so DHARMA Wants You is open now. I received an E-Mail, and promptly viewed the source code for the email. Embedded was a link to the video below. However, it was all spelled out along with the words “Banks Claw” as alerts in the HTML. There appears to be nothing else in the email that is “out of the ordinary.”
After taking the DHARMA recruitment test I passed. Though I suspect everyone will. Just be prepared for really strange image, french being spoken in the background (which I can’t quite make out), and strange questions.
