As I was driving home this morning from grocery shopping, the sky (already filled with dark clouds) turned much darker. I was annoyed with myself for foolishly choosing to wear sunglasses, and there was no convenient place to pull over and change them. When I finally got to a parking lot, I opened my glasses case.

I’d been wearing my regular glasses all along. :eek:

So how “dark and stormy” was it where you are?
