Seasonally Affected

<<< Previous Entry: Two Buskers Faced Each Other | This Month's entries | Next Entry: Update On The O2 Situation >>

So for a few years now, I've been thinking I've got Seasonal Affective Disorder or at least Sub-Syndromal SAD. I've had the symptoms since I was eighteen so there was always the chance it was just a late spurt of teenage angst or something. However, the other day I was coming home from Cambridge and I started listening to "Read Music/Speak Spanish" by the Desaparecidos which I got last year at Christmas. You know how sounds and smells will sometimes bring back really vivid memories. Well while listening to the the Desaparecidos I got the really strong feeling of having that "just woken up" breath in my mouth. Now the Desaparecidos album isn't boring or sleep making, but train journies are, and I listened to that album mostly on the train.

Now this may seem slightly irrelevant but I got the Hell Is For Heroes album May-ish time, and I listened to that mostly on the train. I rate the albums about the same (HIFH's album though has got "I Can Climb Mountains" on though which is the best song ever about mountains) but the HIFH album doesn't remind me even slightly of that groggy foul mouth taste. So I'm thinking that this means I sleep more in winter, and that would agree with me having Seasonal Affective Disorder. Okay so while it doesn't prove it scientifically, it does prove that buying cds is a good thing. Possibly.

Mr.Moony

i used to get that when I was much much younger (8 or 10). Now answer my and bens Q's in an earlier post

Sparticus

Yes, and the one off the place that occasionally has the market by the bus station.
Possibly Probably in March as well.

David

it also goes to show that people with decent taste in music take the train. two quality albums (though desaparecidos just beat hifh as conor oberst writes better lyrics than justin schlosberg)

Mr.Moony

Good Good, make sure you come visit me this time.

That's called "Gloucester Green" - doesn't that one claim to be the cheapest in Oxford??
I'm guessing you're not free to come to Spring Harvest 8th-13th April with the rest of us from church...?
