I'm done.
Okay, this is it. I've Freaking had it with Melbourne's rotting awful weather. Seriously, I am over it all. Nothing but clouds or the last 3 months, and the days in the 7-day forecasts continually get changed from "fine" to rain and showers. The forcast for the next week had 4 days of fine weather predicted, with relative mildness, but now that has been replaced with bloody rain and showers and freezing temps. We can now expect 1 fine day, without any guarantee that it will be clear. Even days that are forecast to be fine just end up being foggy and drizzly. Over the last 3 months we had perhaps 5 freaking clear nights and days with more sun than clouds. I think I'm depressed now, I'm drinking everyday and haven't been in a geniunely good mood in weeks now. I feel I'm always just pissed off.
So from now on, I quit astronomy. I have torn up all my observing lists and threw them in the bin, ready for garbage collection tomorrow morning. From tomorrow, I'm going to resume a favorite pasttime. I'm going to buy the latest edition of Microsoft Flight Simulator and concentrate all my energy into that.
I've had enough of this crap stressing, so I'm now going to re-start my flight simming hobby, which in the past has provided me with much fun and entertainment. I'll be happier person and it will distract me from the horrible gloominess outside my window.
I will see starlight again, but not in the near future.
