I Will Shake My Rain Stick And Make Everything Better

“Ben, I’m angry with you.”
“Why?”
“It’s raining!”
“It… it is. Raining. Yes.”
“Why aren’t you doing anything about it?”
“Because… the rain is out of my control. I don’t, y’know, I don’t have any real influence over the rain. If it’s going to rain, it’s going to rain. I can’t stop it.”
“Not even for five minutes.”
“Er… no.”
“You can make it stop for five minutes.”
“I can’t make it stop at all. I don’t have control over the weather.”
“Really? I don’t believe you. Not even for five minutes.”
“No, not for five minutes.”
“…”
“…”
“I’m so angry with you right now.”

Hehe. That reminds me of when I was 6. My mom’s roommate Scott would let me tag along while he did chores that Summer. I remember being in the car and whining about how hot it was. I begged him to make the sun go down. He said, “Sure. It’ll be gone at about 6 o’clock.” He was such a dork. He told that joke at least three times. I wonder where he is today…
