Yes, so I'm aware it's September and thus autumn is creeping in,
but here in Texas it's going to be summer for a while yet!
It's strange- Fall has always been my favorite season,
and yet despite this hideous drought and blaze we've been
experiencing down here, I must admit I'm a bit sad to see summer go.
I want more skinny-dipping, more slip wearing, more nectar sipping!
My body loves being warm here- it's like floating in amniotic fluid.
Muscles unfurl, neck loosens, shoulders un-hunch themselves
and the smell of hot cedar sap and baking asphalt are a strange balm.
Popsicle season. Sweaty sassy dance party time. Sunset hour.
Summer! Who knew I could ever grow to love it so, especially after
years in the South- swearing up and down that I would never subject
myself to another blistering Texas or muggy Louisiana summer.
