I suspect one of two things:

  1. My spleen has secreted excess humour – a black bile if you will – that has brought on a bout of melancholia.
  2. I’m getting fed up with the Christmas experience of staying at my folks.

This leaves me with two possible courses of action:

  1. It’s quite probable that a course of leeches and blood-letting will clear up the issue. Failing that, drilling a hole in my skull should allow a means of egress for any demons therein.
  2. I could just go hide away from all familial interaction and read this splendid book that Santa brought.
