Here I am, not working as I type this (bad PD, I'm supposed to be working), and it seems feeling myself drain away. It isn't being fun at all, my mind doesn't seem to track beyond what it is directly doing and it seems at times it just completely stops, and 5 minutes later I realize I haven't even moved my eyes or typed a single word. And all the minor things seem to be 100 times as irritating as usual, space allocation on my desk, monitor flicker, key stiffness, papers trying to escape. Things I would not normally notice, but now noticing. And I normally like my job pretty well.
Sorry for the unusually mopey tone of this post. But well, guess this place is as good of place for it as any.
Cheerio

you know PD, if you can't express your annoyance in your own blog, then where? :>
hey, if you're really bored, you can always look at this and try to make sense of it. :D

Seen that before.
Sadly I need less things not more to distract me from the work. Though actually, it's not work specific really, lately found myself blankly losing all focus even when I've been watching movies or even roleplaying or whatnot.

That was a great post. You dont realize that you wrote what you felt, however long it took, to the best of your ability and expressed exactly what you felt in the least amount of words. Keep being good to yourself and remember blogs are for all kinds of feelings, ideas and living breathing dormant dead bright and beatiful things. God bless you. Check your diet and go to the DOctor, you may be suffering from depression, or just writer's block. Best of everything. -

WHen you have no focus, maybe you should divert yourself it's all I have left, when everybody is at work or busy with their day, Im taking photographs of the shoreline, walking, and contacting old friends. Be good to yourself. Focus is hard to maintain. Iam very unstable in that area myself lately. Dont forget to update me, OK? -

Hey, Pen, your on my blogg and Im wondering since November if your doing any better. I was like you, a very sad writer out of work and extremely sick mentally, now Im slowly getting better and wondering about you. Are you working? Did you try "Helium" Or Journalism.com to find a job? Consider it if your still looking....Im only offering you SOMETHING to help you out, IF I may. Dont be sad; look at me saying it; pray, talk to friends and get out of the house! Slowly youll start to come around. God bless and keep you. I sincerely hope all is well with you after so much time, 'just wondering..... CU, BV...
