Sant Jordi 2008: ALL THIS BECAUSE OF THE WEATHER.

I would buy an umbrella. But, I’m afraid, if I buy an umbrella, perhaps it won’t rain. And I’ve seen the prices of umbrellas. Umbrellas are expensive. If I spent my money on a useless umbrella, I couldn’t buy another thing, maybe more useful. I don’t know what to do. Oh! What’s this noise? I look through the window. It’s starting to rain. Yes, now it’s raining but when I buy an umbrella, it won’t rain anymore. I’m happy to use my neighbour’s umbrella. She’s not very happy, but she always lets me take her umbrella. And when she asks me for something I tell her that I don’t have it. She may think I don’t have anything. Anyway, it’s better for me. It’s already finished raining. Now, I can go to buy an umbrella, but I don’t want to. I think it’s better to buy a hairdryer. Oh, I’m thinking too much and I’m not doing anything. I’ll get unfit. What’s that? My boring neighbour is knocking on the door. Oh, I’m lazy. I won’t open the door. I’m not here. I’ll go to bed, and I’ll pretend I’m sleeping. One minute, two minutes, three minutes... I am a fool! She cannot see me! It’s hot here. I’ll open the window. It’s raining again!! I’ll try to close the window. It’s not easy, it’s windy, too. Uff, finally, I can relax... Well, I will have a shower...

I am having a shower. Relaxing... But, suddenly, I slip, and start falling down... I injure my head. And while I’m getting unconscious, I think: If I had bought an umbrella, I’d have gone out, I would not have had a shower...

All this because of the weather...
