Lately I’ve found myself bursting with de-motivation, filled to the brim with a lack of energy, and exploding with an enthusiastic reluctance to do anything. I’ve been relatively subdued in all my dealings with people, where I would normally be gesturing and chattering like an endlessly whirling dervish, full of charm and wide smiles, eyes alert and mind awake. Not sure what it is, but this month I seem to have lost my soul.<\/p>\n

Er… not that I’m currently brain-dead or anything. I’m still more “bubbly” than most people, and I still skip to the car on the way to the movies, but the everyday things are starting to drain all that’s good out of me. I find myself asking why<\/i>, and I end up pushing the whole subject aside because I know<\/i> why and I can’t do much about it yet.<\/p>\n

In the meantime, my personal projects are put on the burner — my art<\/a>, Fugue<\/a>, Jaunt<\/a>, this web log, and even my movie reviews<\/a>. This whole site<\/a> needs my attention, but here I sit glowering at my new monitor, loathing my lack of productive activity and yet not doing anything about it.<\/p>\n

Hmmm… I wonder if I’m low on sugar.<\/p>\nShare this post:
