Ain't that a B*tch!

So I get home from Easter shopping for the kids, because I'm a procrastinator and there's nothing like going shopping for Easter candy the day before at Wal-Mart. Anyway, I am planning on washing the Camaro when I get back because it rained yesterday and there are spots all over it that are driving me freaking nuts. Well the weather is perfect outside, not a cloud in the sky about 60 degrees and very little wind. Anyway, after and hour I'm finished washing, drying and detail spraying my baby and I'm feeling pretty good. When I am about to pull her in the garage my wife asks if I'll run to the grocery store to pick up a few things for dinner and I'm like why not, any reason to take the car out for a spin and I'm game. Please remember that I said the weather was absolutely perfect and it still was to this point. I hop in the car, fire her up and head to the store. I find a parking spot on the end and away from everyone else, as is common practice for me now, and I walk in the store to buy the groceries. I check out and start to walk outside to get to the car and this is where it turns bad. The sky which was picture perfect blue when I entered the store had changed. It was now an ugly gray and pouring rain, which was blowing horizontally from the wind. As I am stand there getting drenched all I can think of is WTF? I try to run to the car all the while thinking this can't be happening, I just washed and dried her not even 15 minutes ago. So I finally make it to the car and start to drive back home. I call my wife, who answers the phone laughing and asking me if I noticed it was raining and "right after you spent all that time washing the car" Anyway, before I got back to the house, not even 3 miles away, the storm was gone, the sun was back out the skies were blue. All I can say is Ain't that a bitch!

Sounds like something that would only happen to me. I'm glad to hear that there is two of us out there with the worst luck on the planet.

Forget watching the weather on TV, just ask if you are washing your car today or not haha. But I seriously feel your pain. That has happened to me a few times over the years.

Knowing I'm not the only one makes me feel a little better. Is that wrong??
