They call it HAPPY in Australia

Quick thoughts on this:

If you notice that your mood, energy level and motivation take a nosedive each November only to return to normal in April, you may have Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), according to Loyola University Health System doctors.


First: Is it just me, or are there others who incline toward dismissing this ailment as bogus because it has a cutsey acronym?

Second: I propose a contest to rename SAD!

I should probably avoid playing in my own contest, but isn't talking to yourself publicly the whole point of keeping a weblog? My entry: Winter Malaise Disorder. Because I want everyone to take it seriously.
