An Ode to Summer Laziness

Ahh, the lazy days of summer. I say this almost wistfully because I know full well that there won't be many of them left. It doesn't seem right that the end of July should basically mean the end of summer, but that's almost the way it is. Some of my schools are actually starting marching band this week! (*shudder*) So even though I feel like a slug when I sleep till nearly noon on Fridays and Saturdays, I really feel no guilt for doing so, because I know that the dual-alarm-clock clarion call of 6 a.m. will be coming all too soon, and I'll be up to my ears in teaching again....and I'll love it, but I'll miss these days where I get to do a whole lot of nothing but recharge a little bit.
