Working at my company is like being in the safety of a mother's womb. It is lighting-controlled, temperature-controlled, and I suspect humidity-controlled too. We have fresh air circulation systems so it never feels too stuffy. All our drinking water comes from a central, filtered source. Security is adequately tight. Furthermore, from my cubicle it is difficult to see a window to the outside world.
In other words, during my working hours I cannot tell if it's cloudy, raining, or scorching. This is more troublesome that you might expect, because usually when met with strangers the first thing we do is comment on the weather. Can't see weather = No conversation topic. And boy, there sure have been many uncomfortable silences so far.
However I have discovered a way to tell what the weather was like during the day. My shower has no heating installed, so I have to make do with whatever comes out of the shower head. And I've found out that if the day was hot, the water will be warm. If a thunderstorm happened, I would be understandingly shivering during the evening shower.
Eureka!

I must have been writing gibberish for you guys to misintepret
If you were at home, I'm sure you would have had a window to tell the weather, hence the misunderstanding. :D.
Hey Zeem, what happened to the gal who used comment furiously on your blog...?
"If you won't comment on mine, I won't comment on your's". So kindy one. Aiyoh. I thought karma's a bit slow. You shouldn't comment in her blog in your next life.
