Autumn and winter in Holland: I've had twenty one years to get used to it, but I still can't help getting sad these days. And it's gonna take fricking 7 months for the sun to get back. :(
I'm sorry, O. But look at it this way: at least you don't live in a country facing 4 more years of Cowboy Bush.
And you can legally smoke weed.
O, try to think about the good things about winter in Holland. There must be some ???
Get back to us, eh?
Hey O....I went to Amsterdam twety years ago. Is their a hash bar called the Milky Way still around. I had the greatest time there.

Yes. Think positive. At least you've got wooden shoes to keep your feet dry when it snows!!!!
--- I hope I don't have to add that I'm just funning with you. Even if I don't, I will.
Go ice-skating in all the different canals :)
wow, what's with the nonlove for the Netherlands?
hey O, I've been bouting with the blues for a while, so I've got empathy for ya. What works for me is usually loud, LOUD music of all types and lots of coffee. Also, some physical activity that involves moving your arms a lot helps. try to go for some indoor stuff if it's too cold.
and about the aforementioned weed: don't be too depressed as you can plunk down in a hash bar and start puffin' away. even if that's not your thing, just do it once for all of us american stoneys! :o
And don't forget what cold weather is best for... snuggling up next to a hot body :o
Been to Amsterdam a few times and always had a really good time - for a variety of reasons.
Love the city and the people.
Very chilled and laid back place to visit.
o man have you tried enhancing you light/dark cycle with lighting that's available that approaches sunlight quality. It's supposed to enhance your mood in people experienceing seasonal affective disorder (yet another label for a side effect of changing seasons). Something to help ya look on the bright side--you could be here with me watching the Boston Red Sox choke again >:(
I kinda start to like winter time. It's always the period where I listen back to a Cd I really love. O, try to listen to Bloody kisses by type o' negative, my favorite autumn cd and you'll chear up immediately.
Hang on there, the jacket's almost back in town.
I feel it on the leafs falling from the trees.
Cheers, guys! It's really nothing, I guess. It has a lot to do with rain, for starters. Autumn and winter in Holland, that's mainly cold and rain. No snow or ice or anything romantic like that. Just rain.
Now, with the weed thing: somehow I'm in the sort of blues where the last thing I want to do is drink and smoke weed. Usually that helps for me, yeah, but these days it just doesn't. But I know how frustrating that must be for all you Americans, me being able to smoke week and not doing it. :D
