Uneasy Waters Ahead

I don't know if this is funny or not, but I've gotten into Ficly, under Jason Month at

I figure that I'll 'publish' something eventually.

This weekend I broke my habit and I'm regretting it. Yesterday, Saturday, is the day I reserve for doing incidentals like tidying up, doing laundry, checking accounts and the like. But there was ASME stuffis yesterday, so instead I tried to get work done. But I need that break from the work week, otherwise I get tired, and listless, and above all depressed about how much I think I have to do. Imagine this last week colored a comfortably warm shade of red. I was on the ball. This next week, imagine a shade of rolling grey-blue. It feels like when you've taken off your jacket, but the room is just slightly too cold, so you've gotten cold, but not cold enough to notice, or take the effort to put your jacket on. So your arms feel chilled and lifeless. I'mona put my jacket on because that's more reality than fiction.

Anywhoo, I'm convinced it's all in my head, because I really don't have that much more due than normal, and it's all entirely manageable. Like today. I FEEL like I have everything to do, and haven't gotten much done, but when I look at my list, it tells me I really don't have that much to do (though I've still gotten less of it done than I should). At anywhoo. I'm just worried I guess. And incoherant. That too. But that's normal.

I've been plagued with two feelings lately. The feeling that I should be working, because I've got a lot to do and not enough time to do it, and the feeling that if I'm not working, I should be doing my hobbies. Problem is, feeling like I've got a lot to do makes me tired, so I don't want to work at work, and I don't want to work at play either. And lately, my hobbies have leaned away from those nice mindless things like e-comics or TV or movies. I've reciently gotten through all my e-comics, and I don't want to start up again on my list so soon, and I don't really find movies or TV all that enjoyable right now. So I'm left with my hobbies, and although I'm really proud that I've filled my spare time with such constructive things, they're all such hard work, and my mood demands something relaxing and brainless. So I don't do anything, which makes me bored, which makes me listless, which makes me think of all the work I need to do.

Anywhoo. I'mona muddle though it like a scout muddles through mud (while it's raining and his shoes are soaked). I've got alot of cold and wet imagery right now... I was trying to write a Ficly story earlier, and that's all that I came up with. Weird. It's sadly not as cold and dreary as I'd like it. We've had, like, two days of decently rainy weather. Anywhoo cole's packing up so so shall I
