•
January Blahs •
An epidemic -rages at this, 'time of the
year. I call it the 4anuary "blahs." It
strikes the young and ,61d. Although the
symptoms aren't physically painful, they
are discomforting. The causes are varied,
and as yet, the cure is undiscovered.
The mast severe attack occurs early in
the morning, when the victim- is ;eked by a
buzzing in his. ear. After the initial shock
r• passes, he fumbles for the source, which is
• usually an alarm clock:fie tries several
methods to relieve the din. He may bury
.his head under 'a pillow or drop-the clock
into a drawer or"throw it into the-farthest
corner of the .room.
When he finally quiets theAlarm, he
slumps back on the bed exhausted. His .
peace is short-lived, ho.k,ever, for he
soon Prodded by the voice of his
conscience... •
The murmur begins gently, hut, i(
unheeded, it builds to a' deafening
crescendo. "You've 'got to get up." You*
can't stay under the warm blankets au,),;
longer. The holiday is over. You've got to
get up. Get up! GET ilk"
The.victim is thus forced to drag himself
out, of bed. This action is hampered by a
sluggish . feeling. Most - investigations
reveal the sluggishness results from the
consumption of to much food and drink
during the previous two week-s. An ;
immediate cure is impossible: only time,
exercisceand diet will relieve the inertia. To
quickly disrupt drowsiness, the victim May
splash cold water on his face or gulp a cup
of 'strong coffee., ' •
The next attack of the "blahs" strikes.
•
O
•
when he steps outside. He is confronted by
a fluffy, white expanse that used to be his
driveway. The 'mound in the middles his
car.
Each time he lifts a shovel full of snow,
another muscle strains., His red nose runs,
his fingers become numb and his toes
sting. The ringing in his ears resumes.
when he starts the motor, press'es the
accelerator and hears only the .sound of
spinning tires.
When he finelly arrives at work, the
glare from his boss informs him' he's late.
This causes another symptom -of the
"blahs" - chagrin. The victim feels
Abashed because he has' already broken—
one 'of his New Years 'resolutions, He
vowed he wouldn't he late again.
As the day progresses, a few more pangs
hit him.•fle forgets to change the date from
1975 to 1976 and gtUrnbles every time he
has to correct a mistake. His frustration
mounts. as he' audits, his accotinfs- and
discovers his figures aren't balanced. Then
he experiences a sickening thud in his
stomach when he learns how much money
he has 'to, scrape together before April..
By the end of the ,day, he is exhausted,
He collapses on his 'bed again.., Before he
relaxes, however, his conscience 'reminds
him, "Set the.-alarm. You've got te. get up
early in the morning. Do you 'Want to he
late again? Set the alarm. Set it. SET IT!,"
The victim spends a restless • night
knowing he'll be harrassed again.tomorrow
,by. those January "blahs".
