Summertime -- And the Living is Easy?

Memorial Day is over and even though according to the calendar summer hasn't officially started, but who are we kidding.  The weather is hot as hell  warm, people are headed to the pool, and kids are getting out of school.  Summer is basically here!!! And with summer there comes rules....rules that people don't quite want to follow.   Summer time comes with a lot of blank stares and What the hell heezy?  So, this week I have 20two questions about the sights, sounds, and smells of summer.

1.  Isn't this still one of the best summer songs ever? 

2.  Did anyone else's parents make a slip and slide out of a roll of plastic?

Our plastic wasn't this long and was held down with logs in each corner.

3.  Does anyone else hate to see adults in shorts? 

Exhibit A

Exhibit B

Exhibit C

4.  Don't you hate when you see short people in capris/crops and they look like regular pants that are just a little too short?

5.  Don't you hate when you see tall people in shorts and dresses that would be a normal length on the average person, but becomes daisy dukes or a mini skirt on them?

Please tell me you forget to put on your pants.

6. Does anyone else besides me think that being at a crowded amusement parks is NOT the greatest way to spend a hot day?

7.  If your toes look broken or appear to be doing the gangsta lean shouldn't you wear closed in shoes?

8.  Or is it that everyone does not know they should NOT wear sandals. flip flops, peeptoes, etc.? 

9. Even though you are an adult do you still want to run behind the ice cream truck?

10.  Don't you wish you had this in your backyard even if you can't swim?

11.  Don't you wish some days you could have an old school water gun fight to cool off?

12.  Does the park become you favorite place to hang out May-August?

Nothing like Screen on the Green

13.  Even though you know it's a racial stereotype don't you just love watermelon?

14.  Don't you wish all jobs would honor summer break?

15.  Do you remember catching lightning bugs (fireflies) in  Mason jars? 

16.  Do you get excited or dread your family reunions?

17.  Does this song remind you of several things that deal with summer?

18.  Do you get excited about all the summer festivals and outside activities?

19.  Does summer mean that people can get away with wearing things that don't fit their body type?

20. Speaking of which are you afraid to go to the beach because you are afraid you might see things that will burn the UV protection off you sunglasses?

  

21.  Isn't going to  drive-end movies with friends and family the best?

22.  Were your childhood summer's  filled with fun memories of Vacation Bible School, sleepovers, band and sports camps?

Stay cool,
