Blue Monday, which this year fell yesterday, Jan. 16, is a holiday of questionable intellectual provenance on which you are supposed to feel very depressed because you’re not doing enough, you’re in debt, and the weather’s bad. So, basically, it’s what the Jews call “Monday.” We’ll see you next week.
