TIRED OF HEARING ABOUT THE WEATHER?
YOU CAN ALWAYS TURN IN TO POLITICAL DEBATES
When we were younger I use to laugh with my cousin that the old people we knew seemed to only talk about the weather or their illnesses when they got together.
Well now I'm fucking old. I am not on the make, I am not partying, I am not traveling, I am not having wild adventures, so I claim the right to talk about the weather (I'll spare you my aches and pains.)
Yesterday (February 12th.) the high temperature was 9 degrees; today the forecast is for 13 degrees; tomorrow 2 degrees, the next day 23 degrees and the next 46 degrees - what the fuck?
This is February, Maine's deep freeze month; to wear long johns or not to wear long johns - I've never had to make that decision before... I'll just keep on the long johns and complain.

To keep a kid occupied, all you have to do is turn on the cartoons. To keep us old shits occupied, turn on the weather channel. I don't know when it happened, but suddenly I'm enthralled to hear it's raining somewhere.
