Blue Monday


If you think you're suffering from a regular case of Mondayitis today, think again. It's Blue Monday. Not to be confused with the title of the New Order song (sleeve pictured above), a bunch of wonky researchers in England declared that today, January 22nd, is the unhappiest day of 2007. They cited mounting holiday bills, failed resolutions and crappy weather as the main causes of Mondayitis... how did they know you'd be avoiding your troubles by reading a blog and wishing the weekend wasn't over yet?

Today is the first school monday of the semester, so that doesn't help things.

Well I didn't get much sleep last night so I'm tired and not very motivated today, and we have snow on the ground. I hope Blue Monday goes quickly for us all. :)

Moi: -

when you've laid your hands upon me
and told me who you are
i thought i was mistaken
i thought i heard you speak
tell me now, how do i feel
tell me now, how should i feel

- Thanks... I needed that New Order lyric break =:-)

Thomas: No one pointed a gun to your head to go to law school in the first place... or did they? - Seriously, good luck with that.

AmyD: OK! I'll smile more on Tuesday. Maybe Wednesday too... no one will recognize me.

l.b: Good thing it's over. It's getting better all the time...

Hmmm, I've had worse Mondays than yesterday. How can they declare 1/22/07 as the unhappiest day of '07 when there's only been 22 days so far? My monday wasn't too bad & the weather here in N. CA was gorgeous & warm. So I'm not buying it.
