Summer

Well, summer is officially here. And I don't just know this from the intense heat I feel whenever I leave work and get in my black interior car. (Which wouldn't be a problem if I got to work at an obscene hour to get a covered parking space). Here is how I know summer has arrived....
Old men in shorts with black socks and dress shoes. This one cracks me up a little :)
Anyone with sandals and socks - seriously people I don't know how many times I need to tell you, no socks are required!
Too short shorts. Especially on individuals who shouldn't be wearing anything shorter than the top of their knees. Although even those stick skinny girls really aren't that attractive in those shorts. Haven't they heard the statement that you need to leave some things to the imagination?!
And along with the short shorts, are the tube-tops or even worse bikini tops. It is completely ok to wear your bikini top while at the pool or beach. But walking around downtown is not one of those places, so put on a shirt. Seriously!
There are plenty more I could share with you, but I think you understand my angst with summer attire. I don't know why people think that since it is summer, clothing becomes optional. Really, clothing is rarely optional in public settings.
Now don't get me wrong, I enjoy the summer. There are many things good about the summer - which I can't think of right now since I am still annoyed about seeing socks and sandals.
