Mint Orange N' Cream Chaser

Lying awake late at night thinking what are probably unproductive thoughts. What better time to be on the internet?

I'm home again, to see my newest niece and to spend Halloween with my family. Tomorrow we finish getting costumes together and visit haunted houses. An old friend (elementary school) is joining us for a few scares. The weather has been clear and clean, having not quite reached the crispness that comes a little later in the year. The trees seem to be in the middle of their Autumn fashion show, and I know the next time I return they will be in full Winter regalia. It's been some time since I've been here for this season; it's refreshing, and perhaps it's that it is 2am, but it seems peaceful as well.

On another note, I've been strangely content to spend hours at a time staring at code since I arrived home. I think the change in scenery has cleared up much of my restlessness. I find restlessness makes a better garnish than it does a base. That being said, my daydreaming and plotting also seem to be much more coherent and productive when restlessness is tugging at me rather than driving me mad. I like variety and change. I wonder to what extent I could stay sane without it.
