Things I re-learn every summer

-- The 66 bus is so much nicer when the students are not in school.

-- Sandals and sweatshirts are not mutually-exclusive fashion components. Neither are sandals and gloves.

-- I am, it seems, a tasty snack for mosquitoes.

-- Thunderstorms are simultaneously fascinating and frightening. It depends on how close the lightning is hitting (the house I grew up in was hit by lightning when I was about 7; that's something that stays with you. Trust me.)

-- There's some formula by which it can be determined, based on the humidity outisde, just how crowded the local ice cream shop will be. I have no clue what the formula is. If I did, I wouldn't get stuck in long, long ice cream lines on the most humid day of the year.

-- My hair, which is naturally curly, hits "poodle stage" somewhere around the second humid day of the season and doesn't behave itself again until first frost.
