Blue Monday

Each day brings a new dawn. But it always brings another sense of waste. I wake up, go to work, apply for jobs I know I either have no genuine chance or interest in getting, come home, spend my evenings on the couch or in front of a computer screen, killing time. I know were I in England that my days wouldn't be much different but at least I'd have people to talk to, people to see.

Today is "Blue Monday". Officially the day of the year that people feel more depressed than any other day of the year. I have to admit, I felt worse earlier this weekend than I did today but I can understand why today might get people down. Third Monday of January, Christmas is over, all that you have to look forward to is more dreary weather and that awful made up holiday in February.

On a random side note, I just discovered that Keith Barry was presented last night with the Merlin Award of Mentalist of 2009. Go Keith!
