Lately, I’ve been so exhausted that I don’t even regret not working on any fiction. So the ability to write goes first, then the desire, then the anguish at what has been lost.
Maybe you suffer from SAD. I was in the pharmacy the other day and the pharmacist had one of those really bright lights set up on the counter near where she was working. She said she suffers from SAD some years, and the light really helped her.
Have you been going to the gym? I stopped, the last months at Tombstone, because… well, I don’t know why. I just know that when I am going regularly, I have a lot more energy.
Rioting is waiting for you when you get time. We’re not talking perishable fruit…. or something that requires athletic ability (so should be done when you’re under 40sish)
I hate the month of January at the gym (though I still go) because the parking lot is so f-ing crowded with people who are trying to carry out their resolution to lose weight in the new year. By mid-February or so, I can easily find parking spaces.
Love the cat photo…sooooooooo cute.
I like January because the holidays are over, finals are next week, and not only do I have Monday off, the rest of the week is filled with half days.
Not SAD, Dean, but TMFW, too much fucking work. I think I’ve said this before — oh well: I’m a lazy person stuck in a workaholic’s job. I loved it when I was in academics; I could spend hours a day surfing the net and fiddling with our department’s web site. Of course, those were hours I should have been dedicating to my research, which explains at least in part why I’m no longer in academics.
Yup, I’m back at the gym, having finally shook my viral crud. So that’s not the explanation, either.
Kate, I’m on my way. You playing the Clash over there, or what?
Hurray for lazy people! I’m finally in a position where I’m good enough at what I do (and the only one who can do it) that I look uber-productive from the outside. And it’s interesting enough that I’m only lazy some of the time.
It’s a piece of cake because:
1. All three Honors classes are doing oral pre-sentations (the big fat Mayor of Casterbridge essays have been taken and graded).
2. The juniors have an objective test plus easy
essay where they have to take a position on a
controversial issue and support it.
I don’t have to be on stage performing during
finals week.

Also. Sorry your month is sucking.

Sis: but won’t you have to grade those finals?

I’m sorry your job’s being a vampire.

My opinion on January 19th: great sunny day; beach; warm weather. Freak cat… I guess that’s the heat…
Well this is my photo there…
that’s cool… thank you for referring to my site, not everybody does that now a days…
