When do people breakup?  David McCandless performed an analysis of 10,000 Facebook postings and status updates and discovered that:

• Most breakups are announced on Mondays
• There is  big peak in breakups right before Spring Break
• People like to start the summer being single
• There is a run up in splits ups right before Christmas, but the fewest breakups occur on Christmas Day.

 Though I suspect  the study was based upon British Facebook postings, the findings are consistent with my casual observations. For instance,  I have noticed that I receive the majority of my new client inquiries on Mondays and Tuesdays and right after the major holidays.
