Gingerly


The Most Depressing Day of the Year
So, it would be easy to believe the theory set forth by Dr. Cliff Arnall, a researcher from Cardiff University, that the third Monday of the month (Jan. 21, this year) — a day he calls Blue Monday — will be our most depressing day of the year. Arnall bases his yearly prediction on a formula he developed, which factors in the weather, consumer debt from holiday spending and failed New Year's resolutions and arrives at that conclusion that we'll hit rock bottom on Monday the 21st.
Hey, we're inching our way to spring, the light is getting stronger little by little, every day from here till one year from now will be the last with Bush as President. That alone is cause for optimism.

Great song from the 80's Blue Monday by New Order , re-mixed by Orgy in the early 21st. Great day to make a big purchase. I bought my Caravan 10 yrs ago today on a Blue Monday in Jan. Got a great deal. Still have the Van to this day , because I can't afford to buy another one.
