some things i won't miss about summer

i love fall. i love wearing warm sweaters and light jackets, walking through leaves, etc. here in saskatchewan though, the fall season lasted 3 days. at the end of september, it was 33 degrees, then things were normal, then 3 days later, snow, wind, and cold. so to help soften the blow of winter, i like to think about the things i will not miss about the summer:
allergies - i seem to be allergic to pollen. all summer i have a runny nose, a runny eye, and i sneeze on everything.

• no shirts - i'm not just talking about old shirtless men. what is much much worse are young muscular men playing shirtless frisbee in the park, even when it's not really that warm out. is a shirt really that constricting while throwing a frisbee or football? they're just doing it to impress the ladies - unfortunately, it probably works. they also make me feel bad about myself, because my shirt never ever comes off.
  
• people showing off their skills - related to above. my wife and i often each lunch in the park. we often get a hackey-sack in the back of the head. we also get to listen to the soothing sounds of inexperienced djembe players.
  
• business casual summer clothes - i work in an office. the dress code is business casual, which is fine in the winter months because i get to wear sweaters. unfortunately a sweater doesn't work on a hot summer day, which means that i'm forced to dress like my dad: dockers and a golf shirt tucked in.
• teenagers - i remember being a teenager in the summer. there was nothing to do but wander around. now, teenagers wander outside my house, and i don't like it. these teenagers like to throw eggs at my car and break its windows.
  
• getting into a hot car - i suppose it's better than getting into a cold car in the winter, but in the summer sun, you could cook a stew in my car.
  

i sound like a cranky old man. there are, however, many more things i love about summer, but also many more things i hate about winter.
