Even with the end of the school year and my birthday both happening in June, this month was the one I looked forward to most when I was growing up and that love has only grown in me as I grew. As a big guy, my internal temperature runs fairly hot so a cooler month is always preferable to me rather than a sweltering summer month. I also love all things Christmas. I know it is sacrilegious as a gay man to say that I don’t really care about Halloween, but aside from the scary movies and the candy, the spooky season just isn’t my cup of tea.
