A serious case of the Blahs

Ever had a good case of the blahs?  You know, the feeling that yu are just dragging through the day, meandering from one point to the next.  Looking for something, anything to make throught the day.  Those times when you do as little as possible at work, trying find something that validates your existence.  Goofing off as much as possible, when you know you have a full plate of things the really should be done.  Driving home (to a loving family), nowing that there is more grief to come.  Mind numbing screams from the kids, animals that are getting into every last little thing.  The usual honeydos that you have done soo many times, but just seem to be an irritation.  Looking for any time to have a few quality moments with the wife, only to have it interrupted by some crisis or another.  I look back on the weekend and say it was good (Dolpfins, Jags and Bucs all won) but still don't feel refreshed.  Or enthused about anything.

Maybe its a bug I'm catching.  Maybe its the change in season (Fall starts today).  Maybe I just need a vacation.  A break from reality.  The limited amount of time I seem to be able to beg, borrow or steal to get a little gaming in, just doesn't seem to do it.  The mind is still so fired up and going so many different directions trying to make sense of it all, that the gaming just becomes frustrating as you fail at some task again and again (I was able to kill this guy last time, but can't do it now).  What's the deal.  Putting this down on "paper" may be therapeutic.  Who knows.  Meander though another week and see how things go?  Find a solution? How to find a solution, when you don't know the problem.  Interesting dilema.

 

Not exactly a feel good post, but sometimes  I guess you just have to say WTF!

Yeah, well blahs come and go. 'bout all you can do is weather them when they hit and enjoy the hell out of life the rest of the time. An alternative is to do something totally out of character (not illegal or immoral), just something off the wall. Go bowling, play pool, take a long walk, anything but your usual routine. And when you do, look closely at the folks around you, observe, just immerse yourself in your surroundings. Try it!
