Heisenberg's Cat

I can't wait till we go up North tomorrow. It will be so good.

The Good Lady clucked contentedly from her seat on the couch.

It will be bloody awesome, lady wife. I can't wait either.

I raised my glass and clinked it off hers as we toasted the idea of sticking one up The Man's shitpipe and doing what we damn well pleased for a couple of weeks. Which was mostly drinking on a beach in between looking after the children.

Oh you know what, let's check the weather. Hopefully, we will get some sun!!

The Good Lady picked up her phone and unlocked the screen.

NOOOOO!!

I leapt to my feet like a Hells Angel spying a discarded almond Croissant in a bin.

What the flying fuck?!

The Good Lady squawked with indignation as I batted her phone from her hand as if it were another man's penis.

DONT LOOK AT THE WEATHER!

My voice warbled in panic and I kept my hand outstretched at her like that mad bint in Stranger Things who makes things fly about whilst wearing bad jumpsuits.

Why the hell did you knock my phone out of my hand?!

She was not amused, her mouth scrunched up cutely like a gerbil's rectum.

You can't check the bloody weather. Not in Scotland?! Not just before you go on holiday?!

I shook my head emphatically from side to side like Jordan Peterson blowing raspberries on his secret transvestite lover's belly.

Why the hell can't we check the weather?! We always check the weather before we go away?

The Good Lady once more stretched out her hand toward her phone. I contemplated diving onto it as if it were a live grenade and I was twice the man I thought I was.

You cannot check the weather before a Scottish holiday. If you do it will rain the entire time. You cannot mess with such things. If we do not check the weather then the chances are we might cop some sun but that won't happen if you do check the weather. You will lock in the rain and the holiday will be shite. It's like quantum mechanics or something. You know, Heisenberg's Cat.

I waggled a finger at her in a no no no fashion.

Heisenberg? You mean Schrodinger? Schrodinger's cat?

She let out a snigger and then quickly hid it.

Yes yes, fucking Schrodinger. Heisenberg is the one that made all the Crystal Meth.

We both nodded at that.

Fuck it. I am checking the weather. We can't go blind. It is the middle of summer. I mean, it is Scotland but it's Summer. It can't possibly rain the whole time.

This time she made it to her phone and flicked it open. She looked at me, then the screen.

For the love of God woman, don't do it!?!

I wailed but it was no use. She tapped the screen and then looked at it in horror.

Oh my God. It's raining every single day?! But how? It's bloody summer!?

She turned her phone at me disbelievingly.

I shook my head sadly.

I told you so.

Talking about the cat: I am house sitting friends' place and the cat escaped twice, today, including tonight, an hour ago. I am no fan of these beasts. It also didn't help much that it started vomiting twice after returning from this afternoon's escape.

Hope the weather on your holiday is better than predicted. It sure can't be worse...

Scottish weather is reliably unpredictable. Prepare for the worst and perhaps be pleasantly surprised.

I'm uncertain about Heisenberg's cat (Physics joke).

You are right about Scottish weather. It looks grim but I'm pretending it will be ok and maybe just maybe it will!

How horrible!!

At least if you don't look, there would always be hope that something good could happen, whether it does or not.

So sorry about your rainy every day upcoming vacation.

You tried !

Oh nooo! You have to have sun on your holiday, will send you some from Florida as we're having way too much lol. Have to be honest, I haven't a clue what Schrodinger, Heisenberg or even Wisenheimer even is, so...no comment from me on that.

Regardless of the weather you will have a great time.

Over here we don’t check the weather at all, weather forecasters just waste their time. If it rains heavily when you’re out you’ll just have to deal with it

I feel it is important to check the weather so as to be prepared at anytime. You wouldn’t want to be caught up in the rain without an umbrella😭😭

Generally, I feel like we cannot predict any weather. We may be thinking that the rain will fall when we see the clouds in the sky. Whereas, it won't fall
Crazy weather...lol

My dear Sir, is that climate change has the planet upside down, it's getting awfully hot here, and the sun is very strong, with very warm temperatures day and night with a greenhouse effect. It feels just like when you're sweating a fever, hit from all sides.

I send you in this greeting my weather so that you can enjoy next to your beloved wife a few days of sun, sea, and sand on these well-deserved holidays.

The people who are controlling the world, the elite, are changing everything, and no one believes that. Even when we have different hemispheres, climates, and time use, we are all sheltered by the same sky... God is present in each one of us.

My best wish to you and family😎🌞🤗❤️

The weather's been strange everywhere this summer! Major North American cities are getting pummeled by tornadoes (Chicago, Montreal) which is odd because thermal updraft typically shields them from funnel clouds. I hope you see some sun while you're up there! We're worried about rain during our trip to Ireland in September too. We're landing on the Emerald Isle fully prepared for almost anything. : )

Oh man I nearly choked on the Jordan Peterson comment lol

The damn weather, you never check the weather or else you’ll end up like Milgram’s cat! (Stanford prison shock experiment, zapped!) doesn’t the lass know?!

Someone I work with is taking a cruise up yonder in early august, I didn’t want to be a Debbie downer but I was about to say hope it doesn’t rain on ya!

No wonder the Brit’s and northern isle folk fought so many wars in foreign lands to get away from the rain and clouds. It’s a wonder they had so many offspring, but I guess if it rains all day just bang all the time!

I think that is precisely the reason they forgot those Wats and tried to colonize here there and everywhere. It was to get away from the awful weather!!

I learned long ago never to check the damn weather and just take what comes!

That's what happens every time we go on holiday! Especially the foreign ones. Oh no, it looks like storms is what she says all the time and it's the same, it's sunny as feck!!

It's actually turned out not bad up north. I am amazed!

Are we there yet? So late to the party!! I hope you got there and the weather was disappointing sunny! Hwhw... No wellies were needed, I can hope!

You are off work, with the Good Woman plus the kids!

Bad weather can destroy some parts of the trip, but it will never stop you from having a great time!

Have some fun for me~! I am stuck here!
