Creativity

Not a whole lot to report.

Mostly, I dither, and that creates a hole in the universe through which time leaks.

I couldn’t begin to tell you what I do all day except not enough of it involves REMUNERATION, and this is not a good thing because Trip to California + Moving Across the Great Water = Spent a LOT of Money, & I really do need to replenish the coffers: My bills are not going anywhere, plus if I ever want to travel again, travel costs.

I’m between books. Not having anything to read always makes me antsy.

I have not been particularly diligent about unpacking all those boxes either, so I feel like a transient.

I’m not in a bad mood. I’m not in any kind of mood at all. It kinda feels like I’m in suspended animation. Except I’m awake.

I think that might come from feeling singularly uncreative. There are periods of seeming inactivity when one is gestating new projects, but this doesn’t feel like one.

Could it be that I’m simply not creative anymore?

And if so, would that necessarily be a bad thing?

Maybe you're just a little shellshocked! A lot's been going on.

You will never not be creative. "Mostly, I dither, and that creates a hole in the universe through which time leak." <--That's exhibit A.

I hope that's what it is.

I don't like the idea of not being creative. 😥

I appreciate this phrase, and am really feeling it these days. When it's too warm out, my brain goes on strike.

Yah. I rationalize dithering by telling myself, "All neurons have a refractory stage!"

But the truth is I can't tell "refractory" from "lazy." 😀
