January 24th = Worst day of the year
Thanks, Seattle Times, for validating my crankiness today. Apparently a British scientist has come up with some sort of formula that proves that today, January 24th, is the worst day of the year [Times].
According to this Cliff Arnall, we’re all allowed to be depressed because we’re still in debt from the holidays and have probably already given up on our New Years resolutions. (I haven’t, yet, but that’s mostly because I didn’t decide to quit anything this year–I resolved to start doing a few things more often.) There aren’t any three-day weekends for a few weeks, and it’s mostly cold and rainy. I don’t know what this formula is, exactly, but it sounds about right to me.
So go ahead, Seattle, have an extra cocktail or three today. You deserve it.
All this, AND I missed my bus. Four cocktails for me.
Plus dessert.
it’s nice that “the smell” coincided with the statistically worst day of the year. way to go waste management!
