Do you think we’re the sort of girls to sit around on a Sunday night? EAH (loud buzzer sound) you’d be wrong!! What’s the opposite of seasonal depression - seasonal euphoria? I’m self-diagnosing here, but I think I’ve got it. I have all the symptoms: Excessive happiness: a level of joy statistically improbable. Compulsive smiling: grinning under the most mundane circumstances. Irrational optimism: the feeling everything will turn out all right. Compulsive socializing: relentlessly engaging in parties and outings. Impulsive behavior: capricious decisions that lead to.. stuff. Difficulty focusing: trouble concentrating on ‘serious subjects.’ Increased appetites: A craving for.. everything fun. I have to call it. The symptoms are limpid, my diagnosis is: Summer, seasonal euphoria, and it feels pretty good. . .
