Limbo shuffling, not dancing

I feel that I'm slightly in limbo at the moment. It think it might just be fatigue but I'm not sure. I'm also a little under the weather but the doctor told me this morning that there's no chest infection so just one of those cold/cough things that lingers around. My poor wee boy has the same thought the bugger gave it to me. It's not always nice to share. Anyhoo, I'll be starting a new job in October so at the moment I'm working my notice in my current role. I don't have any motivation but I'm trying to remain professional and keep on top of things. It's difficult though since I lost interest a while ago, before I even had a new job. I may talk more about this once I leave but right now would not be appropriate. I find also that I've no inclination for gaming either. I didn't have an opportunity last week but I got a short window on Saturday. I turned on the 360, saw there were a few friends on line but just couldn't face a game of Halo2 or even call of Duty2. I downloaded a couple of demos recently released, played them, had a game or two of Texas Holdem, then just switched it off. I haven't even been able to read anything either. Reading has always been something I loved doing. More so than gaming to some extent. I find reading a good novel takes me to another word far more than gaming. I can become immerssed in a book adn empathise with the characters far more than a good game. gaming remains remote. When I read a book it's like watching a film in my head. I have a good imagination so if the book is well written than I can relly lose myself in it and become eager to read at every opportunity. I recently finished Ken McCloud's Newtons Wake. I couldn't get into it. It wasn't bad but I just couldn't read more than little bits at a time. I have Dan Simmons Hyperian Omnibus sitting ready to go but I haven't been able to even open the cover. The latest instalment of Kevin Anderson's Saga of the Seven Suns is out now too so I need to pick that up at some stage but I've a dozen or so books waiting on my shelf to read. My taste is mainly for Sci-Fi. I've tried crime and thrillers and they are fine but sci-fi does it for me. I want to be taken to another world, another time, another universe so i don't want ot read something set in the current world that could in fact be true and pausible (although good sci-fi needs an element of plausibility too). I have also been reading alot of ancient historical fiction set in Rome or Greece. I read the Iliad, though it's debatable as to whether this is fiction or based on fact, I have the Odessy to read. I also have some stuff by plato to read (stuff! ha, such respect for some of the finest literature known to man). I also read the Alexander trilogy by Valarie massimo Manfredi (sp?), that was a great story and based on an incredible true period in history. I am also know to read poetry, autobiography, Politics, travel writing and others so quite an eclectic mix. I miss reading. I miss gaming. I miss a lack of fuzziness in my brain. I need a fuzz free heid.

I haven't even writen anything in ages either, which is another story. Or at least it would be if I actually got around to it.
