stupid reasoning lesson #1

It doesn't look that cloudy out....I think i can make it to the bank and back without an umbrella.

5 minutes later I'm huddling under the Black's building's 2 inch awning waiting for it to let up a bit.

It doesn't.

10 minutes under the awning and I see one of my co-workers scurrying by with her little broken umbrealla.

"CHERYL!! SAVE ME!!!"

I crane my head under the saggy side of the umbrella with the metal spoke poking out and the excess water draining down the back of my shirt.  My feet are sliding all over the place as dirty downtown sidewalk runnoff washes over my sandals.

Now i'm sitting here in Duncan's gym shirt, smelling  an odd male scent becasue it beats spending another 4 hours in front of my computer in a sopping wet long sleeved cotton shirt.

You got me this time, mother nature....
