Summer: Anticlimax of the freaking CENTURY!!!
The title pretty much says it all. Summer this year has been anticlimactic, and this is why:
1) When we returned from Vietnam, we were already basically in “Summer Mode” — the mindset of summer.
2) Since it was technically still the school year, “School Mode” — the mindset of the school year — became the same as “Summer Mode”.
3) The transition from “School Mode” to “Summer Mode” was then anticlimactic because “School Mode” and “Summer Mode” are the same.
4) Now we feel like it’s still the school year, and therefore summer is also anticlimactic.
5) How lame.
There you go. The whole thing has been summarized in five easy sentences. Another list — I’m on a roll, aren’t I? Lists, lists, lists! Summer is always all about lists. There are packing lists, to-do lists, things-I-will-do-this-summer lists, grocery lists… I guess even that was a list. They’re unavoidable.
