"...and wishing you were far away"

A horrible day, it's cold and the sky has that mid November tint that's probably called "Suicide grey" in god's sample book. Paul Weller got it just right in "That's Entertainment":

Days of speed and slow time Mondays,
Pissing down with rain on a boring Wednesday,
Watching the news and not eating your tea,
A freezing cold flat and damp on the walls.

That's entertainment.

and later:

Feed the ducks in the park and wishing you were far away

So I've just spent a few minutes day-dreaming about the heat and light of the South Western United States, where I once drove 972 miles non-stop from Phoenix to Denver, via Flagstaff and Albuquerque. Oh to be back there now.

Sigh....
