But it's true, it has been a cool summer, day after day of light clouds and mid or low 20sC, like living in some civil west coast city without the rain. (I keep forgetting that it *does* rain, because when it does it seems to belong to a different season, not to say country, entirely. Think Kyuushuu or Bangladesh.) I can't tell you how easy this makes life. None of the strain of keeping the house cool, of sun-struck heat dizziness when biking the main streets, of being hammered by muggy unbreathableness whenever one leaves the shelter of work's AC, or of checking the extended forecast daily to see when the world will become a rational place again. Summer is so nice when every day isn't a fight against the elements. I see why other people, living in other cities I assume, like it so much. It's like fall without the need for a jacket.
