On Thursday morning last week my SAD lamp arrives. On Thursday around 1630 I gather the courage to place it on my desk and turn it on. Later that evening, A Girl, aware of my new experiment, emails me the following chart, where I have to track daily light exposure and daily happiness:



By Tuesday, we are ready to analyse the preliminary results.

Me: Light on

A Girl: Don’t forget to keep your tracker updated

Me: It’s not looking so great, is it?



A Girl: I don’t know if we should be worried about what might happen to you if your happiness line and exposure line were to cross each other, but I am, very worried

Me: I’m scared too. At the moment they appear to have a perfectly negative correlation

A Girl: Why does it not surprise me that this clinically proven form of SAD therapy is resulting in these figures for you?

Me: You are a realist, that’s all

A Girl: Perhaps your lamp has already acknowledged that you are a lost cause and is trying to distance itself from you slowly. I think you may actually be making your SAD lamp depressed

Me: I see

Oh and a propos of begging, please note, the Amazon Wishlist near the bottom of the panel on the right is alive and well

I need to find a tween Lloyd forum somewhere and I need to see what their reaction is after Saturday's debacle, and how they plan to remedy the situation this week. Is a massive voting campaign being planned? Teenage girls have always been a well organised, rational and non-hysterical bunch of "go-getters", so I expect this to happen post haste.

I need to stop hating Danyl from the bottom of my broken heart and through the marrow of my resorpting bones, but most of all I need him to go have that disconcerting mole from his left shin removed, because everytime I see it in a picture (89% of them to be fair - he must think it's his Madonna tooth gap or unruly left eyebrow or something: a "natural flaw" that will elevate him into worship) I just think that the poor bisexual lad has stepped into Lucie's dog's shit when practising his dramatic stage falls.

And this is the LAST time I'm typing here selmi-conscious on forgotten Xanax from a bedside draw that expired last month (I don't use this bedroom much)

Here are my top 50 songs of 2009. With youtube clips (or other link where the song can be heard). Occasionally I've squeezed two songs by the same person together. WHATCHOU GONNA DO. I'm going to post the list before I go crazy making small changes here and there. The order is a bit fluid anyway, but generally 1-10 > 11-20 > 21-30 etc. And that the number 1 song is farking awesome and I had no trouble putting it there. EDIT: Actually I take that back about the order. As I was finding the videos and putting the list together I heard all the songs again and they should all move up. Apart from number 1. Which clearly can't get any higher. Either way.
