In the gloomy half light I realised how much I am missing the brighter days that will not be returning until into the new year. I&#8217;ll be driving home in the dark too.<\/p>\n<p>The weather does affect my mood, though not as much as some. I love the summer, prefer the autumn and spring. Winter around Christmas is great, probably because of the festive connotations, but also I think because it&#8217;s a time where you can get snuggled under the covers and get intimate without fear of interruption.<\/p>\n<p>The dimmer light and glow of a fire can do wonders for you love life, fantastic ambience. However we&#8217;re currently at that weird time of year. Autumns finished and its colours have faded. Christmas (and the Christmas break) is just over the horizon. It&#8217;s a no mans land where the days are grey and I seem to be waiting for something.<\/p>\n<p>In spring and summer you&#8217;re filled with energy (sexual and otherwise) because of the long days and sunshine, around the turn of the year the weather in the UK means we&#8217;re more prone to clear days, even though they&#8217;re shorter and colder. I can look out over the hills and taste the clean cool air, savour it. It makes the juices flow in every sense of the word.<\/p>\n<p>Ah well, in a couple of weeks it&#8217;ll be winding down for Christmas mode and then some festive fun.<\/p>\n<p>So is it just me? Is everyone&#8217;s mood affected by this particular part of the year, neither here nor there, not one thing or the other?<\/p>\n<p>Tags: <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/sex+and+weather\">sex and weather<\/a>, <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/sex+and+seasons\">sex and seasons<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today was the first day I drove into work before the sun had risen.
