(This message brought to you by the Department of My Head Hurts And Therefore Everything Sucks.)
I haven't really enjoyed my job much lately. On the other hand, I don't want to take a vacation or quit, because then I'd be stuck at home, which is if anything worse. At least at work I can usually lose myself in the task at hand. My usual free-time activities involve the kind of sustained mental effort I can't really muster right now, not to mention the tedium-now-for-personal-reward-later structure which is fine as long as it's not all I do. I need some hobby that doesn't involve my usual deep geekery, or a sense of balance, or timing, or… I think I've ruled out everything except for maybe watching golf on TV. I'm not sure I could learn to enjoy that.
Also, did I mention my head hurts and everything sucks? Also, I'm grumpy. Whine, whine, whine, bitch, moan, etc.
