no blackbirds today, just magpies

[incandescens]

The weather feels more like October than May-nearly-June - all right, maybe a bit milder, but the rain and the greyness is depressing. A little bit of sunshine would be nice.

Incidentally, for anyone who's interested and missed the last one, the dragon-breeding game Flight Rising have an upcoming registration window on the 3rd June.

I wish it was October here, as so recently (up till mid-May) it was. Rain and greyness however are the same whatever the season: only rarely do they turn into 'a melancholy that is not displeasing.'

I would be quite happy with a pleasing melancholy, so to speak. I'm not asking for blazing heat. I just want something a little less depressing.
