The past week has left me feeling unmotivated and stalled. Maybe there’s more on my plate than I’m capable or driven enough to do. I’ve kept myself fairly content in terms of getting out, resting, and doing things I enjoy, like eating good meals, playing sports, and some time with good folks, but the projects at school are lacking overall, and it’s having an effect on me. It’s thinking about the next couple months and next year that is particularly daunting, and if I could magically absorb programming languages, things would be easier. I want to be producing more and designing more, but similar to the time when I held a fullt-time job, responsibilities are fighting each other for my attention, which doesn’t seem healthy. Anyway, some more solid hours in a quiet room with this machine might be what I need. I’ll try to make it happen this week.
On a more positive note, today was voting day. The wait at the polls was almost two hours, but it provided an interesting opportunity to observe my fellow residents and press a little input into the bigger picture. My fingers are crossed for change with Obama/Biden…
