Something else that's been bothering me lately is the weather. Some people get the Seasonal Affective Disorder (which really has no good scientific evidence for its existence), a syndrome of depressed mood, spirits, and otherwise crankiness when the trees lose their leaves and the temperature drops. I think I have the Anti-Seasonal Affective Disorder. It's too annoyingly not winter here. The coldest high temperature we've had was about 63. We have no snow, naturally, and nothing that even resembles winter weather. I've had to wear a heavy coat once, and had I been in Iowa, I probably wouldn't have worn it at all. Depressing, eh? It's as though I'm homesick for sleet, freezing rain, snow, and ice. Bummer.
