A writing depression?

default
I haven't been updating much of late, which is kind of odd given I've recently sent money to Livejournal, so you'd think I'd use it more.

But I have an explanation.

In the early ages of Canada (circa late 1970's early 80's) there was a boom in bizarre vending machines.

One particularly odd device offered to predict your "Bio-rythms" for the next month? year? I don't really remember, other than you entered your date of birth and a large handfull of change and it would spill out a wacky little report with a bunch of little sine-wave like charts representing your high and low points for emotions, body, spirituality etc.

And if they actually worked, and had an entry for "feels like writing", mine would be especially low for the last couple of months.

Who knows. Maybe it's a mild depression. I'm still wandering out and doing stuff, there is just this little edge of procrastination and laziness wedging in, and even worse, I've been happy a lot of the time, which isn't really good for making progress at writing.

Know the feeling,

I've had all sorts of things where I think "I want to write about that" from generally updating people on life stuff to specific rants/commentary on various subjects.

But then when I am online I end up mostly not.

Yeah, I also have the problem of getting good ideas when I'm at work and can't update, but by the time I get home I don't feel like typing, or the idea evaporated because I didn't bother to write it down.
