You said it. Something about the buzzing of those insects, and I had the fan in the window as well. Also, remember the way those summer nights used to smell when you were a kid? You know what I mean- kind of a mix of sweat, bug spray, and that warm air? Ah the bliss of youth.
My birthday (August 13th) when I was a kid was always bittersweet. Of course I loved having a birthday, all my friends coming over, presents, etc. But an upcoming birthday always meant the first day of school was only a few weeks away.
