Stupid Girl neglected to bring an umbrella with her this morning. In fact, she proudly announced to her roommate that she "doesn't believe in umbrellas" and "wouldn't be outside that long anyway". When Stupid Girl got out of the subway, the rain turned into a DOWNPOUR OF BIBLICAL PROPORTIONS, and Stupid Girl got COMPLETELY soaked on the block-and-a-half walk to work. Utterly. She entered the office with her pants plastered to her, water literally streaming down her face and into her eyes, her hair dripping, her shoes squelching on the carpet as she walked. Stupid Girl squelched straight over to the Reference Dept., where her bestest friend of 20 years, Practical Girl, took the socks off her own feet and gave them to Stupid Girl to wear. All day long, Stupid Girl walked around the office in warm, thick, white cotton socks. It felt a little funny, like she was walking around her bedroom. (Practical Girl also shared her soup with Stupid Girl, and gave her some sugar-free Mentos, which she had long been coveting, and bought her a soda. Practical Girl is getting treated to lunch on Friday.) |
