where for art thou summer?

10-06-2009 by rialeilani

Summer where are you?! I miss you. Usually you are here by now but the last couple years you have been slacking. I remember at the end of June last year I was wearing jeans and a long sleeve shirt. This is unacceptable!

I know you are right around the corner because I have gotten bit by the “I NEED TO GO UP NORTH NOW” bug. I’m seriously about to get in my car and just head out. I thought about it one night while I was on the freeway. I could have just stayed to the left and I would have been on my way. But as I fantasized about it a bird committed suicide by flying into the hood of my car. If my stomach wouldn’t have clenched I might have been able to continue the day dream but I felt sick that the bird had just died because it flew into my car. Poor birdie.

I tried setting up a weekend with my girlfriends for a weekend up on the shores of Lake Huron but that fell through. I’m so disappointed. We are trying to set up a weekend in August now. AUGUST. WTF? This is what summer is like. The weekends are jam packed and before you know it it’s September!

I asked C if he would go if I could find a place that would take the dogs and rent for the weekend. I found one but he’s on the fence. Seriously, what the hell is wrong with people. Am I going to have to go up by myself again?! Boo!

    Oh, and that’s sad about the bird. I hate even hitting dead animals.

    Going by yourself isn’t a bad deal. At the very least, you’ll get to recharge your batteries. Sometimes I want a break from my Significant Other and just get the heck away.

    First I think I just saw you on a uTube Video over at A Solitary Panda’s website. Do you know each other IRL (well obviously you do if I just saw you in a Utube video together – so I guess that is a rhetorical question…..great video :-)

    I totally hear you about the summer being too packed before it even starts. It’s fun but man way too busy! I am looking forward to a 5 day jaunt to Cape Cod over July 4th and then a relaxing Staycation the 3rd week in July.

  8. I know what you mean… it is cold and crappy out up here in Toronto and I’m so excited for summer!!! I just wish it would hurry up!
