off guard

I arrived at 8:20am. The weather at JFK reminded me of Oahu -- balmy and sunny. On the subway, ten stops apart, two men boarded with umbrellas. I decided it was a fashion statement. Just this morning my Dad and I talked about my ability to predict the weather. Needless to say, it's hailing now and those two fashionable men are the dry ones.

I was going to go out for groceries. I didn't even bring a raincoat... or an umbrella.
