Falling

I have no idea where my love of Fall and Winter comes from, maybe because i'm a Winter baby. Either way, i love when that first crisp comes into the air, we start getting windy, leaves start to litter the streets and lawns...aaaahhhhmazing! I know most people think Southern California doesn't have seasons but we really do. We don't stay perfect sunny 75 degrees all the time lol It gets cooler, low 60s in the day even. We get what we call Santa Ana winds and i love those things! I love a good breeze, on a balmy day with a few clouds in the sky, where you need a light jacket or sweater and it just feels good to be in the sun with the wind blowing through your hair! I'm in love with this time of year, i can't stand it lol

I'm the person who pulls out blankets, hoodies and long socks by the armful lol I get to sport my knee high socks and leggings on my off days. My blankets are soft and just an arms length away. And of course i'm in giant cuddle mode now lol I also spend lots of time listening to feel good music...the kind that gives you peace and warmth inside.

It's the season for people to start hooking up and hunkering down for the romantic-ness of cooler weather and stuff. Guys like to find a girl with curves to snuggle up with. The genuine ones actually come out to play too! Those are the guys that will take you out for coca or a nice comfort food dinner, want to walk the beach or park with their sweaters, holding your hands. They make sure you aren't cold, value you not just for your warmth but for your company and awesomeness! These are the guys who know how to make a pair of jeans and sweater look DAMN GOOD! You know who i'm talking about...yep, them! They are what most of us call "good guys". And i have always felt in Fall/Winter they definitely don't finish last.

As for the ladies, this season brings about wanting to be adored and wanted by someone who really cares about us. We watch more romantic chick flicks and some times us single ones are bit bitter at seeing all the couples canoodle around us. I totally admit i am one of those bitter anti couple chicks lol I mean sure, i enjoy seeing real couples be in love and stuff (but i can't honestly stand teenagers ugh don't get me started on them!) but when you are single it's just not something you want or need to see all in your face 24/7.

It's also the season to take stock in the ones we love...family, friends, pets etc. To see who is really close to us or just on the fringe for the sake of being polite. I always clean out my circle of people during this time of year. I don't like to pretend we are good friends if we really aren't. There is no need to waste one another's time ya know. Yeah we went to school together but if i saw you on the street and i don't hug you, you are probably a fringe friend. I don't wish you anything bad, i just don't think its necessary to have you in my life that's all. If ANYONE gets upset over this...stop it...and you are probably one of those fringe friends. I'm just being honest.

Anyways...Fall is here, FINALLY! I'm enjoying every chance i get to be outside (not often sadly). I'm ready to buy more blankets, sweaters and anything else that will keep me warm...maybe even a man? lol JUST KIDDING...sort of...maybe :P I hope you all enjoy the new season as much as i do! And let's not forget, Dark Knight Rises comes out December 4th!!!!!!!

Sexy Average

Friend of mine asked me could a guy have "sexy qualities" but not be super "attractive". I love my friends, they always get me thinking and thus sharing with the rest of the world on just about anything lol

I definitely believe a guy can be sexy but not super attractive. Sexiness is something that comes from within. Attractiveness usually starts on the outside and can seep inside but some don't bother to look that deep into a person. Sexiness is like confidence, you can have it no matter if you are a 10 or a 5.

Let's be honest, no one seriously believes deep down inside they are a 10 all the time, every time. But it doesn't stop us from acting like we are. Same goes with sexiness, everyone has it, but not everyone shows it or even knows they have it. Intelligence is a sexy quality to some people. When we think of nerds, many of us don't think "sexy". But there are definitely some sexy nerds out there and i'm not talking about the ones who wear the stupid "nerd glasses" and tight t-shirts doing Duck Face in their pics on FB.

To me Channing Tatum is not all that attractive, BUT i do think he has a sexy quality that is, his loving affection for his wife when he speaks of her. On the other end, someone like Blair Underwood is insanely sexy to me looks and personality wise. His confidence, demeanor and the way he carries himself is all sexy and attractive to me. Phew, i'm getting hot just thinking about him lol

Sexiness is objective. A woman could adore a man who has a job, decent car and loves his mom and call him sexy every day, even if others don't think he is all that attractive. He could be a solid 6 but to her he is a 10+ because of his qualities. Someone's looks can draw you in but their personality keeps you there or pushes you away. Attractiveness doesn't hold a candle to personality...at least that's what i feel.

I wish people would just be more honest about these things. You could meet a great person and not be attracted to them. That's perfectly fine. Not everyone is going to get our blood boiling every time. They might just get the wheels in your head turning, making you discover what you want in a mate. They could help you heal from past heartache. They could be that window you need to jump through when all the doors have slammed shut. You aren't going to be attracted to everyone and everyone isn't going to be attracted to you. If a good, decent, fun person comes around, don't toss them aside because you don't want to see them naked lol Make a friend and keep your eyes open. You never know what you might find out about yourself when you stop looking for that wonderful, sexy, attractive person that really doesn't exist as much as we build them up to be in our heads =)
