I smelled the rain and it made me sneeze. So I grabbed for the tissue box. But there were no tissues. So wiped my snot on the front of my shirt.
It was a black Henley, my shirt. People noticed. They also noticed my hair in disarray.
What did soften their grimaces however was my announcement that I was giving everyone the day off. Because our company had made a record deal on that particular Thursdays. But before they were allowed to jump away from their desks, I told them I wanted to buy them drinks.
Their grimaces then returned.
