What can I say? It is so true. And don’t think I don’t feel guilty about it.
Because I do.
But this has been a summer that I actually enjoyed. I went outside. I sat in my porch – in the morning, afternoon, and evening…for hours. I gardened. I went on walks. I BBQed. I made mojitos. I went to the State Fair. TWICE. Oh yeah, and I watched TV. Reality TV like Top Chef. Daytime TV like The View. And Nighttime TV like David Letterman.
I used to despise. DESPISE. summer. It was just way too hot for me.
Maybe because I used to. USED TO. drive to work in an air conditioned car and go to work in an air conditioned office. I remember dreading the minutes I had to walk to my car. It’s not like I didn’t like being outside – it was just such a shock to my system.
Oh yeah, and I am not built for the heat.
I sweat. My face sweats. And gets red. It is very obvious that I am uncomfortable. And I don’t tan. I just turn red.
You should have seen me in Thailand. I was uncomfortably hot and burning ALL THE TIME.
Amanda was all like, “This is so great” and I was like, “This is so HOT.”
What I am trying to say is that I had a really great summer.
BUT I am looking forward to Fall. Which will most likely include apple pie, pumpkin carving, raking leaves and hopefully a little more regular blogging.
