The Great Wind-Up Towards Summer

Yes, it's true--soon it will be summer, my first summer off in a year. I am planting both simple (eg. easy to grow) flowers in my garden, and slightly more ornery and mysterious things (heirloom tomatoes again, corn, and Swiss chard, and flowers from obscure packets my friend Mysteria--not her real name--gave me), and of course many roses. My lilac bloomed with fountains of gorgeous flowers, though they have drooped a bit in the heat. It is am emblem of my devotion to my garden that I get up early to water, to be in keeping with the watering restrictions in my littlecorner of the world.


At any rate, summer is peeking over the horizon and I am feeling very happy about it all!

I'm so ready I've been wearing my bikini to class, even though I know that'll make my student evaluations plummet.

Jeez, you're entering summer, and we haven't even had spring yet.
