    We deny the weather in all sorts of ways. I was caught in a lunchtime downpour yesterday becuase when I left the house and saw that it had rained overnight, I thought to myself, “Well, it already rained. Surely I’m OK now.”

    After wringing out my socks at my desk later, I vowed to remember an umbrella today. (Of course, today it’s not raining.)

    For people like us, NewsWorks issues a challenge: Tell us how you defy the weather in six words or less.

    I’ll get you started:

    Wear flip-flops while Christmas shopping
    Sunbathe on a bright January day
    Picnic basket on a frozen pond

    Your turn.
