cosmolinguist for the December days talking meme: I always like hearing about people's lives. What's a nice thing that's happened to you lately?
So, there's been a lot of stress in my life lately, but the one thing that's given me a lot of little moments of joy has been the weather. I've mentioned this before, but for new people, I moved from Florida to Tennessee earlier this year, after about 20 years living there, and the main reason I always hated Florida was the lack of changing seasons and the constant heat. It's been really nice to watch the seasons change; our apartment has a wooded area directly across the street, and going outside or peeking out the window to watch the leaves change colors and the trees die has been a real source of excitement.
And shortly before Thanksgiving this year, we had a day where it snowed.
It wasn't very much, it didn't even stick really, but it was my first snow since I was, mmm, eight I think? I didn't even take trips outside of Florida until the last couple years, and even then, never in the winter. I've been waiting most of my life to have the cold and the snow back, and I just had a ridiculous amount of excitement when it finally was there.

In other nice news, Bast got me a paid account so I've been playing with icons. Man, I love having lots of icons.
