Small Talk

While growing up small talk was always centered around the weather. Today is nice, or nasty and because of it I feel good or bad. It was the key in to our weekend plans and other plans, so I hear the weekend is great, we should go play some soccer or go to the playground. These days I think the topic of interest is different. Instead of it being the weather it seems to be oil prices. So today I was lucky enough to fill up for blah, which is awesome since last time I filled up for blah. Or this weekend I'm heading to the cottage I wonder where the best place to fill up gas will be.

I don't know if its just because I'm older or if its actually a change in society. Maybe the weather finally has some competition for top small talk topic.
