I’ve started to wear a baseball cap into work. It’s the only solution to the weather we’ve been having.
The problem is the weather changes so frequently. I leave for work in the morning and the sun is shining. It looks like it’s going to be a beautiful day so I dress appropriately and go to work. Then at lunchtime I have to borrow an umbrella.
You can toss a coin or close your eyes and stick a pin into a list of options as to what the weather will be like when you’re going home in the evening and your guess will be as good as anybody else’s.
It happened the other way around today. I looked out the window this morning. It was miserable; a good steady drizzle and the sky was completely hidden behind grey cloud. Just the type of Monday morning we all look forward to. I dress casually where I work and I’m glad of it. I put on a good warm hoody and headed off to work.
At lunch time it was still medium dull. At the end of the day the sun was splitting the rocks. There’s a phrase that’s buried in my mind since my childhood: “You could fry an egg on the rocks. If you had an egg”. It’s a line from an advertisement for something. All I remember is the line. All I know is that if I had an egg this evening I could have fried it on the footpath on my way home from work.
But at least the sun wasn’t in my eyes.
(Now, go out and buy a baseball cap. Tell them Sean abc sent you.)
