Today...
I took a brief moment from my 9 to 5 adventure to look at the strange square of light that hides behind my computer monitor on the opposite wall.   It so happens that this square object is transparent and the light is actually coming from outside of the workplace.  After checking the employee handbook to confirm if this odd distraction was even permitted, i decided to perform a closer inspection of the light.  I set my emails, voicemails, and  IMs to 'away', made a note to adjust my timecard,  and walked to the far wall to take a look.  Upon examination if found it was the sun and the sky.   There were also trees swaying in the breeze.  I had no idea these things were going on outside the workplace.  Not even trusting my own senses i hurried back to my dear desk and checked the 23 reliable weather websites i had bookmarked, plus a few others to be sure.  Very interesting... but at this point, feeling guilty for neglecting my work for so long, i filled a request form for a bigger monitor.
