Tuesday Musings

Last night, the hubby and I went to Sobey's for some late night grocery shopping. As soon as we stopped the car, we noticed the THOUSANDS of mosquitos buzzing around. I mean it was crazylike.... I know white (my car) attracts them but seriously. I was a bit nervous about getting out of the car in fear of being carted off by them! It wasn't a whole lot better INSIDE the store. Yeesh!
I guess summer has officially hit Edmonton.

While I'm discussing summer, how about a Top 5 of goods and bads?

Good:
1) Men without shirts - buff ones, not old, saggy, fat ones
2) We can safely put the ice scrapper and brush in the back seat (it NEVER goes in the trunk as the second you put it there, it snows)
3) Having a smoke OUTSIDE becomes a happy, warm and sunny experience
4) Holidays/staycations/decks
5) No winter coats. And flip flops

Bad:
1) Socks and shorts. Need i point out which sex i am talking about?
2) Stinky feet and smelly armpits
3) It only lasts a couple of months
4) Tornados and too much rain
5) Mosquitos that resemble large planes with talons...poised and ready to pluck you up and fly away with you for a feast. I fear for the dog....

Completely off topic, but worth a mention. Has anyone ever noticed that Stride gum makes your teeth squeak?
