Good things today:

England through to the second round of Euro 2004.
Wimbledon started. Henman through to 2nd round.

I miss the drizzly mornings of March and the rain-before-7, fine-before-11 of England. It didn't even rain on my trips to Montreal and Minneapolis. Well, here's to another 3-4 months without rain.

Universal Studios
