We spent the summer with the top rolled down, wished ever after could be like this

Do you remember when summer was fun? When summer meant spending long, lazy days at the pool, watching bad day-time tv, or lounging around reading books? Now summer is hot and miserable with the 98°F temperatures and 108°F heat indexes. Now summer is dreading having to go outside, because outside is hot, and going in and out of air conditioning gives me a headache, and all those aforementioned things are really the only way that you can even differentiate that it’s summer at all … because there is no summer vacation, no three months off to do nothing. No, now summer is just hot outside, freezing inside (at work at least), as opposed to winter where it’s freezing inside and hot inside … ahh what I wouldn’t give a for an old fashioned summer day, or two .. with nothing to do and nothing to worry about… a day spent at the pool, eating fun-dip during the once-an-hour mandatory “everybody out of the pool” for adult swim. . . . summer just isn’t the same anymore.
