apropos of nothing

Today, it rained outside.

For this reason -- a moderate rainstorm -- my office was closed for the day. Anyone with an ordinary job would not care, but I have a ton of things today and being out of the office was a frivolous waste of time. How shameful is it that I feel this way?

All that aside, it was a lovely day. I read about 500 pages of the Half-Blood Prince, baked cupcakes, made egg salad and hung out with my mister.

Thanks, Hurricane Katrina, for making every minor rainstorm a state of emergency.
