Walking home from uni, it started raining. I looked up at the cloudy sky, wondering why this was happening to me. I had my laptop in my bag, and a 40 minute walk ahead of me.
I sighed, still looking at the sky and said out loud 'Please stop raining.'
And the rain was like 'RAIN!'
I pouted, becoming disconcerted. 'I need to get home dry. My laptop's in my bag and I don't want to get it wet. Please stop raining until I get home.'
And the rain was like 'RAIN! RAIN! RAIN! RAIN!'
I honestly felt like crying.
But I put my jacket (actually my boyfriends jacket, which I'd stolen that morning) over my bag and continued walking.
Eventually I got home (quite wet, but my bag was fairly dry) and almost gave a sob of relief when my laptop worked.
Catastrophy averted.
