I'm dissatisfied with my job. I'm having a tough time getting myself to care. I'm thinking I might just be burnt out - I don't really take a lot of time off. I'm thinking I should start. But I don't know what to do with time off - traveling to do stuff with friends and family burns me out, too, and laying around...well, fuck, I do that every night.
I haven't started my Christmas shopping yet. I'm usually better about this, but this year, it's been tough to motivate myself to do anything.I dunno, the last few months have been pretty terrible. I'm used to having crappy winters (pretty much since just before I dated Ari, really) but this year I just feel so numb, almost.
I don't have any desire to write right now. I mean, I want to, but I just feel empty every time I look at a page. I'm forcing myself to write here again for a lot of reasons, mostly therapeutic, but also because I want to get into the habit of writing something out on a regular basis. There were some points during Nano that I felt the old creativity hit, and Amanda T. and I had some good word wars. I've promised myself to try to write a short story every week, and in various genres, to keep exercising the writing muscle. I'll let you know how it goes.
x-mas,
writing,
work sucks
