Mid Winter Blues

February 7, 2006

I really hate this time of year. The days are too short. The weather is shitty. When the temperatures get warmer, it rains. Then it clears up, but the temperatueres drop.

I feel like I just stay inside. And do nothing. Nothing.

I hate it. I want to go packpacking. I want to be outside.

Right now, I’m just a useless lump. I work. I come home. That’s it. This weekend I didn’t do much more than import songs into my music library. Not exciting.

I keep telling myself that I should get to the gym. It’s not as good going outside, but at least it would get my blood moving. But my wife is working insane hours, and this puts me on Daddy Daycare Duty. The result being that the time I have available to go to the gym is very limited. And my motivation has rarely lined up with those times.

Lethargic. That’s what I am.

I need to break this rut. But first I need to add another 500 songs to my music library. And make sure they are all correct labeled.

Man, I really need to go backpacking.
