Because it's 2 and I was up after 4 last night watching tennis after the Grand Prix. Oops.

On the train this morning, two people from a publisher I used to work for chatting loudly about someone I vaguely knew.

"Yeah, he's moved from Sydney to San Francisco. So he's gone from the gayest city in the world to the gayest city in the world."

Never a truer word spoken. Back fine, camera bought, cats adorable. More later.

[*is affronted*]

it is not dreadful. not anymore than SF and the perpetual fog is dreadful. just takes getting used to. the bluest skies there's ever been are in seattle. song says so [*smirks*]

not really affronted, but i did grow up there and love it dearly. i now live in the third windiest city in the world. i prefer the rain :P

What are the first two windiest? (I may need to avoid them). Still working on the Bath to-do list, week has gone spac, in the next few days!

[snottygrrl.livejournal.com]

winnepeg and chicago. both much colder, too.

bath is filling up fast, but i haven't a good sense of brighton. go to the lanes i guess. i only have a day there. so should be able to occupy myself.

do know there is an exhibition in leeds while i'm there on hollywood armor. drats and double drat. weta will have a bunch of stuff there and i won't get a chance to see it [*pouts*]

Nothing beats the summer in Seattle... I just couldn't take the constant darkness in the winter, being a Southern California native. And I did love living there: all those hills, and so many things to do. :)

oh, well the darkness is latitude, not weather, and definitely something one has to get used to.

but isn't boston as far north? aren't the days just as short?

[norton-gale.livejournal.com]

Boston is as far north. But it's the cloud cover in Seattle that made it dark, I thought. There were months when it looked like 3 in the afternoon all day.

true. the clouds certainly don't help. guess if you grow up there you don't really notice it that much. [*shrugs*]
