Stale Marketing that suffers from S.A.D., My M&M-Filled Blood, and My Plea to Eat With You<\/strong><\/h1>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Stale\u00a0marketing<\/a>, short days, and people walking around like zombies. This is what I think of when someone mentions the month of February.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

It\u2019s finally March. I couldn\u2019t be happier that February is behind us. The sun will be out longer. I can get back to figuring out how to get outside, and hopefully get rid of this case of S.A.D. Yes, my doctor says I may have Seasonal Affective Disorder.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Wut? Yeah, that\u2019s what I said to my doc. As I\u2019m telling him I have no energy, I can\u2019t get motivated at the gym, and I think something\u2019s wrong \u2013 he\u2019s talking over me as doctors do (because they are way too important to actually listen). He\u2019s says, \u201csounds like you have seasonal affective disorder. I see this a lot. Very common.\u201d I\u2019m like, \u201cwut, are you calling me SAD? Hahaha, that\u2019s your diagnosis?\u201d He does not think my comment and laughing are funny at all. I\u2019m a tiny-brained commoner who couldn\u2019t possibly understand that he, as a primary care physician, spends his days saving countless lives, and his nights coming up with cures to humanity-ending diseases before they get out of control.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

\u201cCan I get a blood test anyway please?\u201d He blows me off, leaves, and sends in the nurse to drain me of my peanut-M&M-filled blood.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

This all gets me thinking \u2013 what does the MAYO clinic think about S.A.D.?<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
