Depressed

[bloodline]

hey Karlos... a few of us have noticed your lack of Amiga commitment recently :-)



<-- Look, it's me with my friend Oliver Kampshoff (in the background) in Hampstead, north London :-)



I assure you, that you are not alone... my January and much of February was spent lying on my living room floor wandering why... Anyway, I've thrown myself into learning German and it seems to have helped a little... though it didn't stop me spilling my heart to the wrong person... :-(

This time of year is always the worst (usually December to March)... But I have the advantage of a nice bottle of red wein and some German sausage to cheer me up and get on with life...

Remember, there are quite a few of us here are good to talk with :-)

[bloodline]

Perhaps we could all list the things we do to cheer up? I'd like to see how other people get on with life :-)

Ahhh yes I remember him from a previous thread :-)

All very well... Alas I'm allergic to dogs (and horses, which caused me some problems a few years ago, when I had a girlfriend with both :-) ).

Not sure karlos would know what to do with alcohol!

-Edit- Clean some electrial equipment perhaps... though I doubt a nice spicy Shiraz is good for that...

@Bloodline

Happy belated birthday. Turned 33 myself just over a month ago :-)

Cheers dude!

Today I feel about 73, but that's probably down to having a bit of a cold.

@All

Thanks for the jollies and advice. I'm not having much luck shaking out of the malaise just yet, but I'm working on it. I guess I'm just growing into a miserable old fart.

As Moto says... get down the Gym... that really does help :-)

Anyway, time to take the old black dog for a walk...

I hope that isn't a euphemism...

My new contact lenses are 69% water...

From the movie "how to cheat at curling"...

Eh?

The scene in which the protagonist is seen dragging the large weight across the frozen ice made me think of a comical way one could cheat at "Curling" (possibly one of the most pointless sports ever conceived in the history of humankind)

I think you have defined most sports!

Uppen?

From a depression pov ;-)

Sorry, I'm not sure what uppen means:

Improve (make depression better)
increase (make depression worse)
raise (lift the depression up a bit)
