As I stood in relative anonymity near the perimeter of the office lawn, it started to drizzle lightly. So light was the rain that it barely made a sound. I gazed up in the sky and noticed there was nary a star in sight. "It's going to be a logn cold night again," I told myself. As I let my eyes roam, I noticed the slight breeze play with the fronds on the coconut trees lining the outside of the perimeter fence. The lights had started to come on and cast a magical glow to the misty raindrops. I caught myself smiling. Sometimes I may hate my job, but this space outside the office simply beats every other 9-to-5r's yard. I smile again as that thought trails in my mind. Coconut palms, right outside the fence. Makes me think of vacations :-)
