Ahh, see, our heat-seeking kitty can't stand the draftiness of having the windows *open*... to each her own!
Oh, I agree about the notebooks. One of my favorite parts of fall has always been school supplies. I love the way they smell. They smell like potential.
I love school supplies too. It would be worth going back to school just to get to buy them.
