Enjoyed last week's foray into the warmer temps however short lived it was. Don't enjoy the meatheads who use the first slightly warm day to crack out the summer clothes and throw on their finest pair of cargo shorts. It's 55 degrees and it is certainly a nice relief from the snow and the cold but it's not really shorts weather. It's as if there is some race or prize to see who can be the first to wear the shorts. I mean I get it but seriously it is only 50 degrees outside so I say save the white legs for June and bundle up Nanook. How can these people even have a pair of shorts at the ready? I assume everyone is like us and packs up the summer clothes in those plastic bins and then stores them away in the attic. We then spend the next few months piling the Halloween Decorations, Christmas decorations etc on top until essentially the summer clothes are inaccessible. The last item that usually goes on top are the "Great Bargains/Can't pass these up" after Christmas rolls of wrapping paper. I know these are hugely discounted after Xmas but unless they were free, we, to the best of my knowledge, have never wrapped anything with them. Why? Well, because as mentioned earlier those items get placed last in the attic and when summer rolls around and the Prestons are sweltering in their corduroy pants and long sleeve shirts it's time to act quick. That means throwing things around like a family of circus clowns juggling hula hoops and bowling pins. The wrapping paper becomes either torn or buried alive and smooshed beneath all of the other stuff. This year is going to be different because this year we bought a plastic container for the wrapping paper....Oh wait the one we bought doesnt fit a normal sized roll of wrapping paper....DAMN YOU WAL-MART!!!!!
