I am a bit amused, but more fascinated by my own obsession and verbal topic of conversation with my friends and acquaintances. The Weather! My first comment to a dear friend last night, as I climbed into her car, was not “ Hello, or How are you” or even Thank you for picking me up for choir.” It was, “ I think the wind has died down some since morning!”
Hardly the conversation starter, but it soon turned into a weather dialogue that pretty much lasted all the way to church. Really, Ellen, with the troubled world, the wonderful abundances of life experiences you have enjoyed or sometimes tolerated, the wind is foremost in your mind!
With the topsy, turvy weather of the last week or so, I can cut myself a bit of slack for not being a brighter, more informed, and interesting conversationalist. We can also forgive our weather forecasters as they dealt with this unpredictable weather. We even had a very rare weather phenomenon happen from Page County to New Market called a Wake Low, which devastates every thing in it’s path. I’ll give you the opportunity to research it, lest I come across as a real nerd for having done just that!!
Today, having the forecast of a pretty normal winter day, I am going to find something else to obsess with, beginning with a new JoJo Moyes book, not once checking temperatures, humidity, pressures, or in what direction the wind blows!! Good luck, Ellen!
