Seven fun summer-esque things to do in Tulsa

7:00 AM EDT on June 26, 2012

Okay, so this whole sit-in-a-cube-for-hours thing (predictably) doesn't agree with me.  The world tells me I need to spend my time constructing complex functions on Excel and tending to the arbitrary needs of my sales reps, but all I want to do is make half-day-Friday a daily ritual, befriend someone who owns a salt water pool, and pump my veins full of Jamba Juice.

If this post were a term paper, this would be the part where I'd insert a quote by Oscar Wilde or Dylan Thomas or Robin Williams urging us all to live deliberately, frolick through the woods, and consume bone marrow. I vowed to never become one of those people who comes home after work, turns on Lifetime, cooks dinner for their cat, then goes to bed at 8:30. Unfortunately, with every passing day, my life begins to look more and more like this. Luckily, summer is a great time for all of us on the 9-5 schedule to stay up a little later, go on a few adventures, and reacquaint ourselves with things like "fresh air" and "UV rays." So, I've compiled a list of fun things to do in my dear old Tulsey Town. You know, to help us all feel childlike and carefree again.
