Are you feeling depressed today? Some scientists have determined that January 24th is the most depressing day in the year:

And if you want scientific proof, then Cliff Arnall of Cardiff University has it.

He settled on January 24 after using an elaborate formula expressing the delicate interplay of lousy weather, post-Christmas debt, time elapsed since yuletide indulgence, failed new year resolutions, motivation levels, and the desperate need to have something to look forward to.

In short, all that's left of Christmas today is credit card bills and a pervading sense that the next holiday is months away.

Personally, I feel pretty good today because I have an awesome brother and today is his birthday. I have triumphed over science yet again. Happy Birthday, Matthew!
