For some reason I seem happier when it is cloudy. 'Paradise' is irritating, with its washed-out sunny days, low crappy buildings, and more-or-less soulless inhabitants. Out of town, in the hills on a cloudy day in the winter, this place isn't so bad...but it's still a 'waiting' place, a place loved and hated...more love than hate, the hate more like a despondent sigh. Do you think it is the cold, emptiness, adversity and the like that makes those northern folks, (what I once was) so productive and motivated?

At least it is cloudy today. It is a big help.

  1. We're having the perfect in-between day today...enough light that you know it's day, and huge, low clouds in interesting shapes, bouncing the light back and forth and making cool shadows on those hills across the valley.
