Annie’s right

It’s, like, totally sunny here in Seattle. Gorgeously sunny and warm.

When I first moved herein July 1991, seven weeks before the release of Nevermind and the ensuing culture boom that made my arbitrary relocation seem like the hippest thing in the worldI marvelled at how these gloriously sunny days affected the Seattle populace like a drug, or a surprise paid holiday. I’d never seen an entire city get in a better mood en masse.

Anyway, that’s kinda how it is in Seattle today.
Meanwhile in Berlin, God sends down the rain to wash away the forthcoming sin.
