How Was My Day? Thanks for Asking.

I always get a little sad this time of year. It's the end of the summer, and soon I will have to start showering and brushing my hair in the morning. I have compiled a list of things I will miss about Summer 2010:

1. Not showering or brushing my hair in the morning.
2. Getting dressed at noon.
3. Pretending I am an heiress who is running from her stifling obligations as a socialite.
4. Celebrating stuffed animal birthdays with my child.
5. Grocery shopping when there are few people in the store.
6. Complaining about the weather with strangers: "It's not the heat, it's the huMIDity!!!"
7. California's Central Coast.
8. The fabulous summer lineup on USA network
9. Hanging out at coffee shops long enough to make people think I may be spying on them for national security reasons.
10. Allowing my daughter to use swimming as an excuse not to bathe.
