Just had my annual check up (preparation for David’s return) and my lab results were in every way perfect, except that apparently, I have absolutely no vitamin D in my body. The normal levels range up in the 90’s and my level was so low as to not even rate a number. I was not surprised by the news; the only light I have received for months is from the weak glow of my laptop. It has been far too cold to venture outside for long and since sunlight is essential for acquiring this vital vitamin, I was instead prescribed massive doses of vitamin D. That, along with the welcome promise of warm weather will soon put me right. Yet the whole thing got me thinking about another deficiency in D that I have been suffering from for the past two years. By that I mean vitamin David. The symptoms for both are remarkably similar: a general feeling of being tired and a tendency toward depression. hmmm. Coincidence? I think not. It appears I am in good company as a cursory scan of twitter revealed several others who feel that David is sunshine incarnate.

@Attwittsend Awww. He IS sunshine. David Archuleta Is Coming Home 🙂
So it appears that many of us suffer from the same want: A severe deficiency in vitamin D caused by a lack of David Archuleta, i.e., Mr. Sunshine. There is no cure for ODD, but we know its cause and ODDly enough, it can only be managed with adequate exposure to it, uh, him. In short, we need our sunshine.
