9 to 5 - Weather
Baristo: "Your usual?"
Me: "Yep."
Baristo: "So how are you today?"
Me: "Oh... OK, I guess. So sick of this gray, gray, gray weather though."
Baristo: "I know, right?"
Me: "And the rain isn't even real rain. I wish it would just pour down and then stop. But instead this drip, drip, drizzle, drizzle... Urgh! It's the same every day!"
Baristo: "I don't mind it that much. I just put on a hat to walk to work."
Me: "Me too, but you don't wear glasses. I end up seeing the whole world in soft focus, as if I'm watching a Doris Day movie!"
Baristo: "[Laughing] Well, you know that they say about our weather. If you don't like it, wait fifteen minutes...[He paused] Then kill yourself."
Me: [Laughing] "Awesome! Although I heard something a bit different."
Baristo: "What's that?"
Me: "Living here is like being married to a beautiful woman. Except she's sick for half the year."
Baristo: "Good one! Here we go. Tall, skinny cap. Enjoy!"
Me: "Thanks! Have a great day! See you tomorrow!"
