I think it’s pretty safe to say that we’re ALL sick of winter. It’d probably be different if we were used to this much cold, this much snow, and this much ice — but we’re not. This has been a terrible season here, one of the worst in the past twenty years, and I’ve pretty much had it. ‘Course, this tolerance level translates to staying indoors a lot, blue moods, and a low tolerance for b.s. of the “social media” variety. I suppose it could be my sheer lack of patience talking, but commentary on what people are commenting on in the way that people are supposed to comment on it… Well, I’m guessing I’m not the only one who’s going through seasonal bleh-ness. Apparently my trip to San Francisco didn’t put a big enough dent in my SAD.
Anyway, I could be channeling all of this energy into writing, but partly what’s happened is that I had a mad, mad crazy rush of hundreds of thousands of words, outlines, etc. and then? Full stop. Or rather, partial stop and waiting on approvals, etc. I only have myself to blame, really. But, I’m human. Shocking, I know. I mean… Writers are human with biological bits outside of words? THAT’S CRAZY TALK.
Excuse my French but vas te faire encule vieillard hiver. Yep, I used Google Translate for that one. (Note to self… Improve my French…) The only way I know how to move forward is to change my routine, so I’m segmenting my social spheres a bit by joining Ravelry (Thanks again, Jonna!) and Fitocracy (WOO!). The first is a knitters/crocheters/bead weavers website and the second is for fitness.
I will not be defeated by a sharp-angled ice man who spews cold spit to get his point across.
