Yaxlich Is SAD

In the early hours of Sunday morning the clocks went back. Yaxlich didn't notice them doing it because he was asleep at the time. When he woke up, he saw that all the clocks had changed by magic although Mr E suggested that he had had something to do with that and called Yaxlich a lazy git for getting up so late. Since Sunday morning Yaxlich has been sad. Today he felt so sad that he didn't even want to blog but did anyway with the Italian transvestite thingummy because he was scared people wouldn't come back to see him anymore if he didn't blog today. He thinks it's because he suffers from SAD, although he's not sure. SAD stands for seasonal affective disorder. The Wikipedia* definition is this: Seasonal affective disorder, or SAD, also known as winter depression is an affective, or mood disorder. Most SAD sufferers experience normal mental health throughout most of the year, but experience depressive symptoms in the winter or summer. SAD is rare, if existent at all, in the tropics, but is measurably present at latitudes of 30°N (or S) and higher. When he wakes up it is dark. When he goes to bed it is dark. The bit in the middle of the day is briefly light but then dark again. He would hate to live in Iceland where it's dark 25 hours a day. That wouldn't be very much fun at all. Unless you were a torch battery salesman. * - Wikipedia is Yaxlich's friend. He likes Wikipedia a lot. It's one of his favourite websites. It is so full of useful information that it makes him want to run around the room shouting "Wiki! Wiki!" at the top of his voice. He never does, though.
