Summer Meme

Mode of transportation: Train

Earliest childhood summer memory: Going to Kerry's Custard for ice cream. It was just up the street from our home, but going with just my friends (no adults!) gave me a heady sense of freedom.
Favorite Drink: Coke
Favorite Snack: Ice cream
Place to read: Anywhere!
Most annoying: Rudeness. People are friendlier in cold weather, and more short-tempered when it gets hot.
How I handle the heat: I don't. If it's over 80ยบ, I hide indoors.
Pet Peeve: Space hogs. If you didn't pay for two seats on the train, you shouldn't take two seats on the train. Your backpack shouldn't be riding in comfort if it means someone else has to stand.
All-time favorite bathing suit: One piece, because I burn so easily. With a skirt, because I don't feel like dealing with a bikini wax. (You'll never lose if you bet on me being lazy.)
Best Time of Day: Around 7:00 PM
Most romantic: Watching fireworks
Summer movie: So far this year, Begin Again.
These are the thoughts and observations of me — a woman of a certain age. (Oh, my, God, I'm 65!) I'm single. I'm successful enough (independent, self supporting). I live just outside Chicago, the best city in the world. I'm an aunt and a friend. I feel that voices like mine are rather underrepresented online or in print. So here I am. If my musings resonate with you, please visit my blog again sometime.
I agree with rude people! They're everywhere!
ReplyDeleteYou have a valid point about the weather. :)
ReplyDeleteI like mint chocolate ice cream :)
ReplyDeleteThat is a very cute suit!
ReplyDeleteRudeness or over-arching disdain are hard to take, so yes to rudeness.
And I'm with you on the 80° weather! Soon, I hope to have air conditioning.
Have a great week!
I had mint chocolate gelato Saturday and it was delicious!
