Damned overcast mornings!
If you've ever lived near the Central or Northern California coast, you know what I mean -- during summer, you wake up to that "marine layer" probably six mornings a week. Maybe it burns off by 11 a.m., or 2 p.m., or maybe it lasts all day; you just never know. It's depressing and makes it harder to get going.
My sister and BIL moved up near Sacramento after she retired just so she could get away from it.
"Sunny California," my skinny white ass. That's for SoCal

You probably have an efficient A/C. 
Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
