if the line at a cafe is long enough that the position of the sun will have noticably changed between the time I enter and the time I sit down, I'm probably just gonna go to a different cafe

    During midday, when lunch usually is,… Wait a minute, no that’s wrong. It’s usually during the afternoon when the shifting in the sun is quickest.

    Sorry, I came to make a point, but realized I was wrong mid sentence.

    I guess I forgot how long I had to stand in line during lunch in highschool.

    As an adult, I either sit inside where it’s always shady, or I intentionally sit outside in the sunshine. I haven’t had to think about it in a long time, lol.
