The weather
Written on Aug 20, 2007 // Thoughts.How’s the weather?
At work we have to go outside for a smoke, and inevitably people will be walking by all the time. Now for me, a hi will suffice. “Bah, it’s raining, I hate the rain”. Yes thank you Captain Obvious, I can see that quite clearly, and feel it by the water splashing everywhere on me. I know it’s meant well, but it still annoys me at times. Especially when it happens too many times in any one day. But it’s small talk, and a way for people to reach out and connect I suppose.
So…
How’s the weather?

Well, I guess you are right.
On the other hand, half the time the people who ask you how you have been doing are just asking to be polite, they don’t even hear what your answer is. I suppose the same goes for people who talk about the weather ;)
I have been good, thanks ;) How have you been doing? :)
Ow, and yeah, wet and not remotely summer-like

Weather……. It is rainy, and not humid. I hate humid days. It literally feels like the world is on your shoulders when they come in my neck of the woods.
