Summ’a Girl

(to listen to while readin': sexiest summ'a song eeeeeeva!)

Deb: I have four distinct personalities and I wear them in equal parts every year. Right now, I am a summ’a. I’m just all summ’a, with my summ’a clothes and my summ’a tan and my summ’a attitude and my summery sum sum summ’a ways.

I am spending time in the sum sum summery sun and gettin’ all back yard basky and feelin’ like I can’t do anything but be a summ’a girl!

Yeaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh summa girl. You know the one I mean. The girl that’s sittin’ in the summ’a sun with sum summa readin’ and not carin’ if the counters are wiped o’ the dishes are dun.

GONE FISHIN’

Too hot, you say? Not for summ’a girl. She just slides into the pool. Or rather slides onto a plastic chair that floats on the pool. Cause she doesn’t have to actually swim. Can’t make her. She’s summ’a girl.

Streets are steamin’ and summ’a girl’s just takin’ it slow. She’s eatin’ summer salads, bbq chicken and corn, local berries and tall cool drinks.

The summa brings out the sexy in the summ’a girl. She’s walkin’ barefoot and smellin’ the crayon coloured flowers. 

Summ’a girl is 17 when she looks in the mirror. On her next birthday that is!

She paints her toenails with summery colours with names like “Sandy bitch” and “Sunny bunny” and “Shorts Story”. Summer, doncha know. Gotst to do it. She’s summerlicious.

Mornin’ tea on the deck?  OOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHH summa girl, where ya been all my life?

But summ’a girl can’t answer any questions right now cause she’s too busy just doin’ some summ’a sittin’. Sometimes summ’a girl falls asleep in her “Gravity” lawn chair. Then she wakes up and just gets real busy sittin’.

She tried on Tuesday to think a complex thought. She couldn’t ... Summ’a!

So, come on, join in the summ’a fun! But like, don’t talk to summer girl! She’s “outta the office!”

Have your own summa fun and summa girl will talk to you ... in the fall.

Barbara: Deb, that is so summa-licious I want to play along, like tag and Manhunt on a hot summa day/night, but summa brain has me all, I don’t give an f about bein’ all cool and wit it like Deb. I’m just gonna rock my rum and coke on the deck while P smokes his stogie and Dad and Sis pull out the deck o cards and I’ma gonna chiiiiiiilllllllll. S’at what you mean, girlfriend?

  3. I was just thinking about all those summer days by the pool and visits to Siesta Key white sandy beaches. Feels so long ago. Those carefree days.

  10. This cracked me up! My summa fun has been great; haven't had to deal with the blazing hot 90 degree weather like at home! Ahhh...bring on the cool 60's and 70's :D

    Love the song, too. Listening to it right now. Enjoy the rest of your summa! Cheers!

  11. I'm a summa girl in Saskatoon. Volunteering to usher at my favourite riverbank theatre. Then, while the show is in, sit on the deck, have a drink and read my book, or watch the river flow. Very nice in the evening - until the mosquitoes decide I'm their favourite buffet. :) If it's a matinee, and I get too hot, go soak my feet in the water fountain flowing over a rock.

  12. Lovin the summer time too! However, it is too dang hot here in the desert and I can't bring myself to go outside too often, so we've had lots of indoor summa fun here.

  13. I'm not particularly fond of summer, never have been. (Just not into that whole "Humidity=sweat" thang.) However, living ~2 miles from the Atlantic Ocean, I do have to take advantage of it SOMEHOW. I've discovered that, after 6pm, when the sun isn't the enemy and the breeze has really picked up, walks on the sidewalk parallel to the beach work very nicely. At least I can play a summ'a girl for a little while.

  14. Ahahahahaha!!!! I love this! While I do long for summer, especially after months of rigorous college academia, I will always be a spring girl. About to end the most amazing summa journey of my life (I leave from England TOMORROW!) but summa still ain't over yet!

  15. Summer is great, Deb, but I must admit, I'm a fall lover! Love the leaves, the layering of clothes, the deeper colors, and the flavors (pumpkin!). Fall in Western NY is awesome, yet short! :)

    And, Barbara, don't forget:

  23. I'm a summ'a girl in front of the a/c crankin full blast in my pasty white non-summ'a face. 100 in the shade here in Houston. No place else to be but drinkin summ'a icy sweet tea, and thinkin a/c replaced sliced bread as the greatest thing. You think that when you live where there are 2 seasons, summ'a and February. :) ENJOY yourselves, lobsters..uh...ladies! :-D
