Hello and Goodbye to Summer

Summer is not my season. It’s humid and hot. I hate shaving my legs. My toes do not look cute no matter how many pedicures I get. I am one of those people who instead of getting normal mosquito bites I get those awful blisters that scar even if you don’t itch them. Summertime is just not for me. In contrast, my wonderful partner is essentially a lizard. He is perfectly content to lay out in the hot sun for hours and slowly roast in a meditative trance. It’s honestly amazing to watch. I have tried to be that person. I want to be that person.

I am not that person.
