1. It’s currently 85° and the high is expected to be 89° and yet I’m expected to rejoice in the “cool” weather.

2. Everything is either green or dead. There is no such thing as Autumn here.

3. The knowledge that winter is not coming

4. My drawer full of unused sweaters

5. If I carve a pumpkin, it can’t sit outside for more than one night without rotting.

6. Walmart knows if I buy the Reese’s Peanut Butter Pumpkins now, I’ll just have to buy more, even though…

7. …I don’t get trick-or-treaters anymore.

My Longaberger pumpkin basket hasn’t seen any action since 2012

8. Horrifying previews of horror films on tv every night

9. Scary tv ads for Halloween Horror Nights and the like

10. It’s not December. Not that December will be much better.
