SAD

[poliphilo]

I tell Ailz I think I've got SAD and mean it as a joke, because what could be sillier than getting SAD in July? but she says other people have been saying the same thing and- what is SAD, after all, but a quasi-scientific term for being pissed off by the weather? Apparently we've just had the wettest June since records began.

I too thought it was about lack of light, but apparently it can be caused by the opposite as well.

The people who talk about getting SAD in summer are all American. American summers can be stiflingly hot and bright.

I miss the night sky.

One thing I have noticed about the long days of summer: when the daylight is longer I feel like I have more time.
