Today's weather can best be summed up with "what the heck is it raining now?".

(Current answer: snow. Previous hour's answers include water, sleet, snow and hail.)

Well, at least it isn't raining frogs. Or fish.

The weather in iceland is so wonderfully random.

You could actually have one of those clouds by itself that only rains on your house. Or if you're driving, for 5 minutes while you're under this one cloud, it rains, then you overtake it and everything is sunny again.

you can all ignore me I'm a bit of a bad weather junkie

There are castles in the US. Not many, and not as old as the ones in Europe, but they exist.
And Hearst Castle? Also I think a couple of real ones transplanted from Europe?

Most of the "castles" in the US would be more like palaces than castles -- big, indefensible houses for really rich people.

Keep an eye on me. I shimmer on horizons.

I'm having another of those "meh" days, when I really don't feel like doing nothing. At least I made some chocolate cake, that always cheers me up a little. :)

Chocolate cake makes for an excellent cheer-up charm, I agree. : D
I find the only way for me to get rid of blah is to just ride it out, alas.

Just in case you were asking for suggestions, let me mutter "shadow unicorn" (just outlines in the dark) and "ball pit unicorn" ("if only they wouldn't get stuck on my horn all the time!!") in no particular direction ...
