Weather Rock (If it's warm it's sunny, if it's wet...)


Yesterday was beautiful sunny and pristine. The night before it rained, but most of that day was sunny with some clouds. Before that we had two full days of glorious sunlight, not a cloud in the sky. Four days of sun. Broken up by a little rain, but the quality of the sun on those days far outweighs the rain. Four days of beautiful sunlight. Four days like this do not come without a price. Today was that price. It didn't just rain, no, that would be too simple. First it started off like another warm sunny day so you didn't even bother to think about bringing an umbrella or a raincoat, then BAM! Somewhere around second spell the rain started falling with a vengeance. Three seconds out in that would soak you to the core. Guess how far away the bus stop is? Not very. Guess how much that mattered? Not at all. There's only so wet you can get before jumping in a pool might actually be a method to dry off.

  2. Oopsies... : (

    On another note, you managed to confuse plural with possessive throughout this entire story which would normally drive me mad, but somehow I'm actually just impressed with your consistency. So, good on! Your brain must've still been soggy : )

  3. Fixed. My brain must have been waterlogged, once you pointed it out, I couldn't believe what I was seeing. But like you said, at least I was consistent.

  4. If you would just break down and go out and buy the freakin' umbrella and keep it in your backpack (with your pack cover)....

  5. IT STARTED OUT SUNNY AND BEAUTIFULL!
    And you don't even carry your umbrella everywhere. And if you say you keep in in your car, guess what?
    There's a line between being prepared and ridiculous. Carrying an umbrella on a sunny day is ridiculous, not to mention that it was raining so hard and it was so windy, I doubt an umbrella would have helped.
