as soon as i got back into the office from lunch it started to rain. the rain started as a steady downpour and then started pounding down on the roof like a jackhammer gone wild.

the raging rain appeared to have no qualms with beating down with the fury of a hamster in heat. it just get going on and on, relentless, with blatant disregard for the poor souls who were caught unaware on the streets.

but then a rather unexpected turn for the worse happened. hailstones the size of foam pellets found in cheap carnival stuffed animals started to plummet from the sky. it isn’t THAT cold here today, but for some reason the hail started to fall and man…it’s been a while since i’ve seen it hail.

the storm came almost as quickly as it left leaving behind cold, wet tidings.

man…i hope the sun comes back…i miss sunny weather.

and i went on and on about how great it is and he ended up buying one. i ate lunch and all i could think about was how great the monitor really was. it really is GREAT. and then i started thinking about why i didn’t have one. and then i started thinking about why i shouldn’t get one.

and i couldn’t think of a single good reason.

not one.

nope.

and so i got it.

the big question is…what am i going to do with it?
