Gosh darn it, summer went by so fast I feel like I was cheated out of it. Summertime is great, with warm weather, no school, and lots of events. Usually, I would have an alright summer but this summer went by so fast I can’t even say I had a summer.

Albert Einstein said that all time is relative to the individual experiencing it. One’s perception of time is different from person to person. So if I say that I did experience this summer it is just relative to my own perception of time.

I feel like I didn’t get a chance to experience summer. I didn’t get a chance to go to any summer events. Hell, I didn’t get a chance to go to the beach. I try to go to the beach once every summer. Most summer I am able to make it the beach, this summer no.

One part of me missing out on summer was my kid. I love her but she didn’t want to go outside. She just wants to stay inside and play on her “phonie.” That’s what those devices are anyway, small portable phony.

Getting big kids out the house is nearly impossible. Like I might have to call Ethan Hunt because convincing my daughter to leave the house I an mission impossible. She did not want to go out this summer.

You can’t force anybody into having a good summer. Like, you can lay out the perfect summer itinerary, but that doesn’t mean it going to happen. When you make plans the devil laughs. You can have the perfect idea but that nowhere near means it’s going to work out that way.

I must say I had a few problems. I had to move to a hostel for a few months. It really sucks stay in a hostel for a few months. It really made this summer a bummer. The worst part was that the AC was broken. At least the stay was dirt cheap, damn near free.

Summer is a time for fun and games, sadly I didn’t really have a great time this summer. I have been stuck in my dorm. My wife and daughter have been chilling instead of enjoying the summertime madness. So I have been just having some R and R all summer long.

I guess it wasn’t all bad this summer. I may not have the pleasure to attend any festivals but I have been to a few and they are overrated. Just people selling stuff, that’s it. Maybe some live music at these festivals. Still and all even if wanted I would want to go alone, I would want to bring my family.

Too bad ehh? There is always next summer. Maybe I can have a better summer; next summer. Last summer was litty, this summer was blah. Oh well, a restful summer can’t be all bad right? Right?
