    Spend most of my time cursing at the heat, swatting gnat flies from my face, dodging and weaving those douchebag wasps, and dealing with allergies. So from reading that you can probably tell that for the most part I hate the summer. I only like summer when it's on those days where there is a nice steady cool breeze while drinking a beer but there's not many of those kind of days.

    I heard signs help as well. I didn't bring one when I went. I should have though. Hated Punk... Which is ironic because I am from Chicago lol

    Nice! When I went I wore a plain old red hoodie... So I didn't stand out too much. I am shocked my brother didn't get on though. He had a bright pink shirt on and wore some ugly looking pink shorts. haha

    Go home, see my friends. Generally it entices meeting all paramours but circumstances changed recently so just hang out with friends and have fun.
    I miss the sun, swimming every day and the sorts.

    Mostly the same things I do in winter, really. Do not like the heat or humidity. Not that young to desire or have the inclination to hang out at the beach, fly kites or slum it at a some music fest.

    We basically go to dinner, shopping, the movies, long drives, museums/galleries, ballet, opera on occasion, catch a play every now & then or just go on vacation. Not very season exclusive.

    I've worked most of it but was pretty busy on the weekend. Had a wedding and a bucks, a few birthdays and a beer festival last weekend. It should start to quiten down for me by mid May.

    Work,

    I get to slack off for 10 out 12 months doing uni etc, but come late June to sept I'm back in the hometown working, it's good because it's a tourist town so my work place are happy to have me 7 days a week 8am to 7 pm, although, doing that last year, was one of the reasons I ended up in hospital

    So this year it's going to be 4/5 days a week doing those hours

    Sweat, have trouble sleeping and generally be exhausted from the heat.

    I hate summer.

    My summers are now mostly filled with trying to get the kids to go to sleep when its still light outside.
