Everything is kind of crashing in around me lately, so I'm going to just keep trying to keep up.
Today I will not write something creative, but discuss creativity.
I lose all of my gusto/chutzpah/power to do anything when I am tired/stressed/angry. Mostly stressed. I have to have down time to equal out and cancel my stress. I have juuuuuust enough work this semester that I have been able to keep up day-to-day without doing anything excessive. Now, however, I have two two-page papers due within a week and the idea of that is making me want to play a video game.
Am I running away? Or am I actually acting normally and just blowing off steam? I think it's the second one, but part of me is afraid it's the first.
I need to let my wife/long-term employers know this tidbit about me. With sufficient downtime, I perform admirably and am happy a majority of the time. Without sufficient downtime, I perform fine for a week and crash for a month. I am like a car running along the edge of a cliff. I need to put my hands on the wheel and feel like I am in control often enough or else I will eventually run off a cliff and never come back.
Bad news.

You'd better get a flying car.
ReplyDeleteSeriously, though, I know how you feel, and I am sorry you're all stressed. But wait-- it's almost Friday!
Friday never seems to help. Kibble has us on an aggressive concert schedule and I haven't had a good Sabbath's rest for a month.
ReplyDeleteI want to break.
Ack, that doesn't sound good. Guess what? It's break!! Enjoy it and relax some:)
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry, Robby. Enjoy your break.
