[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I respect our differences, OP. I feel about summer, the way some people feel about winter. For me the end of summer can't come soon enough.

I love the 5:00pm sunsets, crisp mornings, cooking, being outdoors without feeling sticky, and warm, comforting things.

Same here. Can't wait for fall.[/quote]

I feel a creeping anxiety as we move into fall and hit DST. 5 pm darkness is the absolute pits. [b]I love being outside all day long in summer[/b] and 9 pm sunset. [/quote]

I'm an "outdoorsy" person but just don't understand this. Don't you feel sweaty, sticky, and smelly? Everything smells 100x more in the summer - from everything outside, to ourselves. Do you like feeling like you need to take a shower again, an hour after you've taken a shower? Or collect bugs on your sticky sweaty body? Do you like being sunburned? Damaging your skin? Do you like being stung by mosquitoes, or wasps & bees? Or dehydration from sweating all the time?

But I empathize, because my anxiety creeps in starting in March. I dread all of the above, and more. I can't wait to enjoy being outside again!

I mean we get hot and sweat but I just don't freak out about it. We take another shower if we need to. Wear sunscreen and bug spray. No biggie. [/quote]

Then you stink like chemicals (in addition to the increased BO that comes with summer, for everyone), plus the disgusting greasy feeling all over. And then it gets on your clothes. It's something one tolerates in the worst of times - I don't know how anyone finds wearing sunscreen or bug spray enjoyable or comfortable.

Ugh, I hate summer so much.
