Nothing like a Mudhoney dirge beat with an I-could-care-less wail for a rainy day.

Nothing against rainy days.

It's better than snow.

And I like rainy days.

Truely.

That's why I moved to Seattle, on whim, oh so many years and another life ago.

It rarely rained, as in less than 7 days a year, in my hometown.

Rainy days there were a celebration and that carried with me.

But now I've moved away again, and the rain only serves to remind me of then.

I like sad songs too.

So long as they don't carry me too far to the edge.

Actually, I like the edge.

That's the allure of the rain and the sad songs.

It takes me there, without pushing me over.

I've never seen what lies below.

Rather, I've peeked, but never leaped to confirm..

I have no desire to fall.

But just there, the precipice at the edge, that's home.

Rainy day, Mudhoney in ear, and inebriation in head.
