masquerading as a man with a reason ([personal profile] ysobel) wrote2010-04-15 01:55 pm

I think I am /going insane/

It's not that I don't have anything to do: my apartment is full of books, some even unread, and full of yarn.

But, perversely, I (only) want to do the things I can't. Chat, GW/WoW, whatever. The gaming bit is partly habit, but I even want to write -- never mind that I haven't written anything in ages, never mind that if I physically could I probably wouldn't -- which is nigh impossible when I am on a keyboard that I can only type on by poking with a stick, which is slow and pathetic and hurts my wrists. Doesn't stop me from writing entries, obviously, but I can only manage short ones, and only because I am self-destructively persistent.

(The above paragraphs took ~15 min to write, allowing for "ow fuck" breaks every few words.)

*wallows about in the yummy gloopy mud of self-pity*

I sympathize. I've been sans television since the ex moved out three weeks ago and took it with him (it was his, so no argument there). I am not a huge TV-watcher generally, with the exception of the handful of shows that I fangirl, but of course now that I don't have a TV, it's *all* I want to do. (Fortunately, new!TV is being delivered tomorrow, at which point I'll probably decide I'd rather read a book. My brain is perverse that way.)
