The Urban Dictionary says about the 'summer slump':
A period during summer in which a person performs inefficiently due to the excessive amount of free time on their hands.
Causes: Lack of school or a job, absence of friends, insufficient funds, and/or lack of transportation.
For me it is: lack of business. All good, hardworking husbands and boyfriends are on vacation with partner and kids. And, God* forbid, they may even have sex with their wives. The poor things. Meanwhile we are bored to bits here. Even the bar is empty now.
So this is how Chrissy and I walked into the bar at the opposite side of the street. Well... guess. No one there either of course. So we amused ourselves for a few minutes and then walked back into Bar No.5 for a cup of coffee and something to smoke.
August really is the worst. I should go on vacation too.
But then, someone should go on vacation to here, right? As this photo by Chrissy shows, it does get pretty hot here, even in August.
* I am not even religious, but I guess this is an expression.
