You should definitely try the book if you get a chance. It was by turns amusing, sad, and wise. ^_^<br /><br />Haha, that's a great story about your math teacher! XDDD Teachers do say the randomest things sometimes. One of my mine had the best line the other day: "If you smell something rotten, it's either a dead fish, a dying fish, or something rotten!"<br /><br />Thanks for hosting such a fun linkup!Tracey Dyckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03445222618456673198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6620960568844915525.post-77487057723272734342017-09-29T15:27:34.553-05:002017-09-29T15:27:34.553-05:00This post made me smile - in a good way :) Loved i...This post made me smile - in a good way :) Loved it :) Keturah Lambhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05041749245034077912noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6620960568844915525.post-58724350292596786692017-09-28T22:02:50.836-05:002017-09-28T22:02:50.836-05:00Loved these pictures.

For some reason, I've not read To Kill a Mockingbird yet? I've watched the old black and white film and since then have been wanting to read the book.<br /><br />Teachers do have such hilarious quirks though! XD While my math professor was lecturing, it started raining. About five minutes after it started, she stopped and said, "Really?! If I had known that, I wouldn't have worn white pants!" It was the most random, hilarious thing ever.

Ah yes, that infamous ham costume. I'd actually forgotten about that till now! XD<br /><br />Understood! Just send me all the pesky foxes that try to steal your chickens, so that I can enjoy staring at them over here. XD<br /><br />Autumnal IS a lovely word. What, still swimming season! That's a distant memory for me... Today was cold and damp and it rained all day and I soaked my Toms shoes in the puddles on the way home. XD<br /><br />That coat, though. It sounds like just the sort of thing I would love! Kind of envious of the artiness and Oxfordness of it! I have a greenish/earthy colored coat too, but it's more fitted and its pockets (sadly) do not fit any books. It is kind of artsy, though, so I'm happy. ^_^<br /><br />Sadness and beauty, yes... I kind of feel like autumn might be the season that sums up an INFJ personality, actually.

Thank you! That...You linked up you beautiful thing! Thank you! That is a great quotation. It's been a long time since I read TKAM. I read it in Portugal. I remember starting it on the beach and being like "ugh it's far too hot for classics I hate life" but then getting super into it! My clearest memory (or at least one of them) is Scout's ham costume. My mum and I talk about it sometimes ...<br /><br />As a chicken-keeper's daughter, I can't get fully onboard with your fox aesthetic. Foxes are beautiful. But also ...<br /><br />It is getting very autumnal over here! (I love the word autumnal. It just sounds autumnal.) But I did swim in the lake today -- swimming season is definitely not over! But I am very much enjoying that it is firmly tights weather, and getting my big green coat out! I got this amazing coat in Kenya. The high street of our town was full of shack shops, ramshackle shops made of bits of wood and fabric with open fronts, selling anything from clothes to mangoes. Lots of the clothes shops were like full of "aid" clothing sent from Britain/America, so they felt like (very disorganised) British secondhand shops -- just huge mounds of clothes to sift through! But a few of us on the team got really fun coats. Mine is mabes just above knee length with big shoulders and it's dark green. And the pockets are big enough for a paperback! I've been told it makes me look "arty" and "Oxford" so I'm going with that! XD<br /><br />But yes, I love autumn clothes! And the leaves changing colour. There is a sadness, but so much beauty, too.Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08057480293595295502noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6620960568844915525.post-31109923700027071672017-09-25T17:44:32.508-05:002017-09-25T17:44:32.508-05:00To Kill A Mockingbird is The BEST and gah, those p...To Kill A Mockingbird is The BEST and gah, those pictures are lovely!!!! *squeaks with happy*<br /><br />Looking forward to the Superhero Post (don't worry!

I'd wanted to see a wild red fox for quite a time (I live in the middle of the woods, so it isn't an unfair aspiration), and I finally saw one several months ago.

Can you send a little Fall my way? Or can I just come live up there with you? Because it's still in the 90s (Fahrenheit) here and it doesn't look like it's going to cool down any time soon. It's depressing me. I'm ready for cool weather! For now I guess I'll just have to enjoy all the pretty fall pictures. *drools over them* Foxes, trees, and books--LITERALLY MY FAVORITE THINGS.<br /><br />This whole post was just full of happiness and made me smile.
