The Winter of Our Malcontent

Okay, it's been a long, painful winter. My blogging has dropped off, but I'm back. One would think winter to be the best time to write, because what else is there to do when it's cold OUTside but to stay INside. This hasn't been the case with me, though. For months now I've been...restless. Maybe hitting 40 back in October DID cause a crisis, because I've been nothing but reflective, distracted and anxious. Work's been stressful (doing two jobs for the price of one), the economy sucks, and my finances aren't doing much better. But I'm digging myself out of these holes, slowly but surely. I also think that for the first time in a long while I'm actually a bit lonely. Not lonely in the sense that I'm looking for a boyfriend, just generally lonesome and more than a little bored. I can always tell when this happens, because home is normally my refuge; I like to spend evenings at home as well as take a long Sunday to just stay in and read, watch a movie, spend time with the dogs, write, or find a new Colin Farrell screensaver for my computer. But this winter I've wanted to be ANYWHERE but home, which leads me to believe I'm searching for something...or, perhaps, avoiding something. While I search for the correct answers, I promise to start blogging again. My public awaits. The Not-So-Young and the Restless, Darren M. |
