Oh the pain of being stuck inside when Seattle is gloriously sunny outside!

Maybe it's because the usual weather here is gray and drizzle, but the sunny days here look different than in Socal. And the sky is clear... with none of the gunky smog residue... It's like turning up the brightness dial on your computer to super-bright. Or like you had been covered by a gray tent, and all a sudden God pulled it off, and your eyes are trying to adjust to the light.

Did I mention yet that the UW campus is GORGEOUS?

I'm chained to my desk writing The Paper and hope that the weather will hold up for at least another day or so...


Sunny Days (Jars of Clay)

Sunny days keepin' the clouds away / I think we're coming to a clearing and a brighter day

So far away. Still I think they say / The wait will make the heart grow stronger or fonder / I can't quite remember anyway

So if you're waitin' for love / Well it's a promise I'll keep / If you don't mind believing that it changes everything / Then time will never matter

Winter, Spring...is what love can truly bring / Ice turns to water, water flows to everything / You can lose your mind, maybe then your heart you'll find / I hope you won't give up what's movin' you inside

If the car won't start, when you turn the key / When the music comes on, all your cold, cold heart can do is skip a beat

It's a promise I'll keep / When you're waitin' for love / If you don't mind believing that it changes everything / Then time will never matter
