Lacking Motivation?

Written in the early hours of January 9, 1998

It will be time to return to my classes on Monday, and I really should be getting a few things done before then, but umm.... I'm not.

We all know how it is when we get into these little slumps. We don't want to get out of bed in the morning if we don't have to. We don't want to do our laundry or dishes if we can get away with it. I've been experiencing this lack of motivation lately.

I've also lost my urge to leave the building or even to go out into the hall. This is only because I don't have anything important to do, and I still have food here.

Of course, foraging in my cabinets right now you have a choice between rice and refried beans... just give me two more days, I'll be really desperate!

Poor Loki is having a terrible case of cabin fever from it too. He likes going out on his leash and hanging out down in the lobby. The other day I had to take him out because the little brat actually dragged his leash over by the door and just laid there looking at me, rolling around on the floor. So I ordered pizza and took him downstairs while I waited for the delivery and tried that whole social interaction thing again.

I really love the people here in the building... well, most of them. But besides the undesirables, I do have quite a few good friends here, and well, there's a possible Mr. Right. But I'm leaving no information on here about him... and if you've talked to me about my escapades recently, no... he isn't the Bible boy down the hall!

As if!

Well, my motivation will be here shortly... I have to go out tomorrow (err... later on today) for a dreadful dental appointment where he's going to tell me that I need my wisdom teeth yanked out. Joy! But it needs to be done, so I'll live...

Won't I?

Maybe I'll actually do some more of that social interaction as well... but then again, I might cage myself in my apartment for the two or three more days I have left for a bit of silence and stuff...

Let's just pray that my neighbors don't light up the funky smelling stuff again... I hate having sudden attacks of the munchies and no food around to compensate.
