(FOUR) WATCH A MOVIE
Summer is when the big movie studios throw the big blockbuster movies at us. This means this is the best time to see the best movies. Sure in the late year the Oscar-bait movies come out in droves, but in the summer we get the best of everything. The best action movies, the best comedies, and it seems the best horror these days. Great movies come out when they come out, but you’ll have a better chance at seeing something that’ll be rewatchable a million times during the summer months. It’s kind of a fact.
(THREE) REVAMP THE WARDROBE
Put those sweaters and scarves away. Pull out the shorts and tank tops! Woo Hoo! In all reality everyone should do this. Go through your clothes and organize. If you have stuff you don’t wear and don’t plan to wear donate it to Good Will or the Salvation Army or something. It keeps you from being a hoarder and lets you feel good about yourself. Meanwhile you can put all your sweaters and thick long sleeved shirts into the back of your closet and pull up the lighter stuff. And make sure you follow those rules about wearing white after labor day… Rules are made for a reason!
(TWO) PREPARE
July is coming. This means The 4th of July, random family vacations, the bigger and better concerts, beaches, parades, crazy heat, mosquitoes, sun burns, horrible allergies, illfitting clothing on illfitting people, the smell of suntan lotion, etc. etc. etc. You need to be prepared for this mentally.
(ONE) REALIZE BASEBALL IS GOING ON
Are you done pretending to be the superfan of your local region’s basketball team. Football is far from happening, basketball has just ended, hockey is still hockey, and there’s not many other excuses one has to get drunk outside of degrading themselves to NASCAR-land. So you have to pick up the paper and realize “your” baseball team is 11 back and suck. But now you have to watch it and now you have to bitch about it…. Or else!
