It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year

I love late May/early June. It's definitely my favorite time of the year. It's warm and kind of breezy with the occasional thunderstorm. It isn't very humid yet and it's just all around pleasant...kind of like how southern CA is all year around. Ok seriously, would someone slap me in the face and tell me to just get over not living in CA already because I'm really starting to annoy myself. Anyway, most people say that Christmastime is their favorite--no way, man. It's cold at Christmas and I'm usually on the brink of a major seasonal affective disorder plunge.

Some of my favorite things about Late Spring/Early Summer:
-You can find cute sunglasses at Target for $5.99. This is solid gold for a girl like me who breaks/loses her sunglasses every other week.
(i for one, love big sunglasses but i thought this cartoon was funny.)

-Pools/water parks are open.
These are staples in our weekly summer schedule. During the winter our schedule basically is like gym, grocery store, home...over and over. And when we are home, we just stare out the window at the drab sky and the icy ground. And then when the girls' backs are turned, I give all the snow the finger with both hands, which in our house is the ring finger, not the middle, because we'd like to think it means something less obscene but pretty close to it.


-I spend less money on things I don't need. I'm too busy to wander around Target and put random things in my cart because yo, it's sunny outside!


-A tan vs. pasty, pasty, white.

-I can get away without wearing make up. I don't know how much longer this will last as I'm nearing...dun-dun-dun...THIRTY.


-Free extra channels on TV, like Bravo. I finally got to watch the last season of Project Runway, my fave. It takes me a good 2 hours to stop talking like Christian Siriano after I watch it each time though, which is always fierce.
