The first time I visited Seattle was the middle of July. The weather was warm and sunny. I recall going swimming in Lake Washington. Everyone was really, really happy and joyful, to the extent that I wondered if I had been lied to all my life about Seattle.

I guess SAD is a thing. Is there an anti-SAD?

Even in Norcal, Seasonal Affective Disorder is a thing.

I think your body just notices the (smaller) temperature and sunlight fluctuations.

People living in places that have long, dark, cold, wet winters certainly appreciate the shit out of summer while it lasts.
