rainy day concepts

It got dark today around 3PM, or so it seemed, since the sky has been the same sea glass blue all day and began fading in late afternoon. Now it's dark out, and soon the street lamps will give the streets, the sky and everything else a creepy orange glow.

"..I'm the only one left, and ... I have the feeling that it's going to get colder and colder until everything I can see, is going to be covered with a thousand miles of ice, all the earth, right up to the sky and over every bit of land and sea." -Allan Sillitoe, The Loneliness of the Long-Distance Runner

I'm reminded of people who live above the Arctic Circle and experience months of darkness at a time. It must be amazing to see the sun again after perpetual darkness for so long.
