in honor of summer

[aephi alum]

Having a good couple of hours of sunlight to enjoy after getting home from work
Sitting out on the deck and having a drink
My garden in full flower
Fireflies
Block parties
Cookouts
4th of July
My wedding anniversary
Outdoor dining and people-watching
Driving around with the sun roof open
Not having to lug around a down jacket

[sororitygirl2]

I can't wait to:

-buy a dozen pairs of flip flops... in every new shade, and of course, the de riguer black.
-look sunkissed and healthy
-go to a fourth of July BBQ
-drive around blasting Sublime... so summer!
-wear J. Crew sundresses
-ice cream (oh wait... I eat that all year!)

[trisigmaAtl]

yay for:
"driving around and blasting Sublime"...it is the only thing to listen to when it's hot outside and your windows are down!!!!!

I love:

walking around outside at eight pm barefoot. The pavement is warm, the air is cool, an it's still light outside

NIGHTSWIMMING

beer tastes soooo much colder

sleeping outside after a day at the beach and your skin is pink and warm from the sun.

the one book you get to read ever all year that is NOT for school (the southern belle primer is on my list this year, I've heard too many funny things about it from GC. plus nobody wants to think too much during their summer reads)

preparing for the LSAT....oh wait, I HATE that!

lol... you read my mind. I was playing Submlime and Bob Marley on my way to work this morning... windows down, sun shining. And I'm about to go BACK to Payless today to see if they have any new flip flops to pick up.

It's the reverse for me - running the A/C all summer is expensive. Is your heat electric?

Go me, getting a job and not doing anything else. Though i do know some fraternity guys maybe i can party with them.

Summer for me means CAMP!!!!

And this summer I'm bringing one of my littles with me! YAY! I'm so excited about showing her all around my summer home...

And camp for me means...

Lots of crafts
Getting messy/playing in mud/creekwalking
Frozen pudding for dessert
Pajama breakfasts Monday mornings
Sleep-in breakfasts Friday mornings (my favorite!)
Campers who say the funniest things
Playing, laughing, and singing all summer long!

That camp thing sounds better than my summer i wish i could go.

I used to work at a summer camp...but this summer I work at Pottery Barn Kids and it's kind of like camp with air conditioning...I played with bubbles and beach balls when I was at work on Sunday! lol!
