Updated: 1:51 a.m. ET Jan. 24, 2005LONDON - Is the midwinter weather wearing you down? Are you sinking in debt after the holidays? Angry with yourself for already breaking your New Year's resolutions? Wish you could crawl back under the covers and not have to face another day of rain, sleet, snow and paperwork? Probably. After all, it's Jan. 24, the “most depressing day of the year,” according to a U.K. psychologist.

The only thing I'm depressed about is this cold snap. My the heating oil in the tank is sinking fast and that stuff ain't cheap. |

What a load of shite eh!?!
Here is the theory:
JANUARY BLUES DAY FORMULA
1/8W+(D-d) 3/8xTQ MxNA.
Where:
W: Weather
D: Debt
d: Money due in January pay
T: Time since Christmas
Q: Time since failed quit attempt
M: General motivational levels
NA: The need to take action
Where's the "NWCS" for how many Newcastles you've had and "S" for amount of Stones heard today!?!?!?!?
Oh and the link ; http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/4187183.stm

Well, I hope that's the worse this year can do... It IS Monday, it IS depressing, it IS raining and my new year's resolutions are fading fast...
And what on earth, I got a dentist appointment tonight, how lovely
But all that can change for the better in just a little minute's time. It really can.
*fingers crossed*

Zeeta's right -- the formula is missing a lot of important variables -- the Newcastles, the Stones, chiba!
With the right amount of the above, even the most depressing days can be fun!

I must confess to feeling pretty depressed. Last week was fairly rough. The sun is shining today though. |

" Carson helped Clinton turn it around
1988 news story remembers sax performance "
" LITTLE ROCK, Ark. - Arkansas Gov. Bill Clinton has gone from the media doghouse to media darling in one short week. And all it took was a smile, a few self-deprecating jokes and a song.
Clinton, panned for a Democratic convention speech that seemed like the last word in boredom when he nominated Michael Dukakis for president, has apparently made a comeback with his appearance Thursday with Johnny Carson on “The Tonight Show.”
Cable News Network on Friday cited the governor for the “fastest turnaround ever” on its weekly “Winners and Losers.”
Clinton, considered a rising political star, had been the big loser the previous week for his July 20 speech. “Clinton proved that being a good sport is the first step to political rehabilitation,” said Frederick Allen, a CNN political analyst.
Clinton traded quips with Carson and confided that his 35-minute nomination speech, which was interrupted by chants and less polite suggestions that he stop, was actually designed to make Dukakis look good.
He also took a turn on the saxophone, doing a passable rendition of “Summertime” with Doc Severinson and the NBC Orchestra.
“People who watch television love this kind of comeback story. He was so boyish and charming. I’m sure he won a lot of hearts,” said Tom Shales, syndicated television critic for The Washington Post.
E.J. Dionne, national political writer for The New York Times, said, “It may well be that Clinton had a bigger audience on Johnny Carson than he had at the convention.”
Not everybody was watching, though. Dukakis missed the broadcast, but Mark Gearan, Dukakis’ press secretary, said he did get favorable reports.
“It came as no surprise to him that Gov. Clinton went out of the ballpark,” Gearan said. "
