Embrace the sun and the pale

brightlotusmoonThis is my favorite kind of weather. Upper 60s to lower 70s, sunny and bright with a few clouds, a light soft breeze, short sleeves optional.
I just realized that I haven't worn shorts or skirts in years. I'll be 33 next month and I haven't worn a skirt since I was in my 20s. Huh. I should remedy that soon. I'll need to find the kind of soft summery skirt that's just below knee length and has elastic and twirls when I spin. I hate tight skirts. As for shorts, I'll need to find some that hit just above the knee, because I also hate showing my legs. And people wonder why I don't like to tan. I also hate that question. I can tan very well; I just don't want to. I inherited Dad's Greek-Sicilian ability to turn wildly bronze after mild sunburning, but I prefer Mom's Hungarian-Russian snowy paleness. Also, sunburns and tans are painful. Just saying.
When Adam comes home from his long New York City job in exactly one week, I will ask him to take me shopping for skirts and shorts. It could be like a birthday present or something.
