The Heat Makes You Do Strange Things ...

It's a common disease. It sometimes hits people worse than others. Small people, in particular, can be severely impacted. In the Midwest, this condition hits people in the dead of winter. But in the desert ... we like to call it SUMMER CABIN FEVER! It typically occurs after several days of being exposed to air-conditioning and the absence of smog-filled outside air.
This disease can cause small children to misplace their shorts and wear PINK shoes ...
Try on their mom's shades and sing "The Itsy Bitsy Spider" repeatedly in front of the mirror...
If it gets really bad ... there is a tendency to start eating furniture in the hopes that it will help eliminate severe boredom ..And when one does make it outdoors, for a VERY SHORT period of time ... your eyes begin to play tricks on you and you start believing your neighbor's slip and slide is actually a tropical oasis!
In the most serious of CABIN FEVER cases ... you might even start to LOVE ON your younger sibling and think HUGGING is a great way to pass the time!

Maybe summer won't be that bad after all!

  2. Strange but cute things, evidently! Or maybe I can think they're cute since I'm so far removed. ;) Love the brother hugs.
