Fall

Dear October,

Hi.  Nice to see you again.  I have a little problem.  You're the best month of the year but I've never felt worse.  Do you think you could do something about this?  Sure enough, everything around me is falling apart, starting with myself.  I've practically given up on all of my beliefs in a matter of months.  I have no interest in getting together with people that I used to consider friends.  I can't find a decent job.  I can't find a crappy job.  I feel uglier than I ever have in my life and I just want to dig a hole and crawl in.  I've basically lost control of my life and I'm terrified.  If you could please provide a bunch of monster movies on television and a lot of Halloween candy all month long, that would be great.  And please throw in several breezy evenings so that I can enjoy the cool sensations on my skin.  Although it won't solve my problems, at least it will keep me distracted long enough to stave off the imminent insanity.  At least for another month.  Thank you.

Sincerely,
Bran
