March In Texas

March in Texas, to me, means that it's the start of summer.

Sure, there will be about 1 to 2 weeks of spring, and then BAM! Summer! 90 degrees during the day gives way to 110 degrees and the asphalt melting between my feet. Gotta love Texas.

I like summer the best though. Sure it gets hot as fuck every single day for 8 months but I love the sun not going down until 8 or 9 o'clock so I can do more things. For that matter, I love how the sun rises early, for the same reason.

I don't like to swim swim but I still like going to Landa Park in New Braunfels, where the water is cold as ice and you swim with duckies and fishies. And since I will be in Austin this summer, I'll be heading down to Barton Springs.

I love getting brown and tan. Not unhealthy brown and tan, but the tan I get from walking around outside all the time. I love how my hair bleaches out a little bit.

I love walking into a cold house after being out in the hot.

I love ice cream. I eat it all the time during the summer too but that's not the point.

I like summer vacation. Only for the first month before I get bored, but still, vacay is always nice.

I like summer.
