I've lived in AZ since I was 9 and it's so freaking hot here that we don't really have anywhere to play outside or anywhere to just go and hang with friends and create those types of memories. I envy those of you with those fun, carefree, summers.<BR/><BR/>Well, I guess I DO have my own type of memories. But you know. Now it's all different that is for sure.Paisleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01627902202210039719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34298967.post-64805243245499268062007-08-16T10:32:00.000-06:002007-08-16T10:32:00.000-06:00stinkypaw, you are so right about the "responsibil...stinkypaw, you are so right about the "responsibilities." Someone should tell you when you're longing to be "grown up" what all that entails. Sigh.<BR/><BR/>stef, a beach summer would do. I think any short term summer job with limited responsibilities could be considered a "zoo summer."<BR/><BR/>noelle, a whole summer off WOULD be lovely. I refuse to become a teacher just for the holidays, though, and I can't think of another way to accomplish that. Well, maybe moving to Europe.

It's funny, the noises and the smells of late August take me right back to that month between camp and school. What I wouldn't give to have a whole summer off again...Noellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11567505547323976582noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34298967.post-45067714078097249812007-08-15T20:48:00.000-06:002007-08-15T20:48:00.000-06:00As you know, I am thinking a lot about lost love t...As you know, I am thinking a lot about lost love this week too. :-( It is indeed a time for August malaise. <BR/><BR/>A zoo summer sounds like lots of fun. But I'd rather have a beach summer instead.Stefaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10128238432671375399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34298967.post-60483396399426469902007-08-15T14:52:00.000-06:002007-08-15T14:52:00.000-06:00Nice post - I miss those summers as well even if s...Nice post - I miss those summers as well even if some people might think that because I work from home I do enjoy more time off then others.<BR/><BR/>Unlike 20 years ago, we now have "responsibilities" (read debts) and can't really afford to take a month off, so we made do with weeks off...
