I wonder if I should be concerned about not feeling social lately. I keep reminding myself that it's only because there are other things I want to do, and talking to people gets in the way of it, but I still feel like I should worry. On the other hand, I still talk to people, so it's fine.

People have received their prompts for the Nordic Jul Fest, and I will admit that I'm kind of jealous. I really wish I had been able to participate. But, I will not have enough time to do that, so it's better that I decided to be the bigger person and opt not to take part. But it still makes me sad.

On the other hand, I can try to write stories for my friends. I think I will do that. Or at least try. I have one partly done... I don't know if it will really work out, but hopefully I will finish, and they will like it.

I will have to index, and I do not want to. Hopefully tomorrow I will want to.

I keep flip-flopping between wanting to watch lots of movies and then... Not. I think I just feel kind of restless, but it's an annoying feeling. And I keep starting to read books and then not finishing them.

I catalogued a shitload of books on Goodreads today. It isn't even a fraction of the books that I own, but at least it gives me a better idea of the books I have floating around in my room that I have not read yet. (Though there are also many in here that I have not added yet... argh, I need to sort through things.) What I really need to do is look through my books, pick out the ones that I will not re-read, and donate them to the library book sale, but... I am too lazy to do that. Well, one of these days.

I keep looking at my resolutions list and despairing at how few of them I have actually managed to fulfill. But at least I managed to figure out how to do colourwork. That was one of the big things that I wanted to do.

Recently downloaded Hollow Crown, but because I haven't read all of the plays that it is based on, I'm going to do that first. Have done IHenryIV already, and working through IIHenryIV, because I was halfway through that already. And then I will do the rest. Sometimes I find the historical plays a bit of a snooze, but on the other hand, it's nice to read them - especially since I'm going to follow it up with a visual version.

I would not worry too much - that's not antisocial behaviour, just sounds like the normal kind of fluctuating between more and less social. Sometimes people just need their own time.

Lately I've been trying to kick myself back into fanfic -writing gear. For some reason I never seem to be able to think up subjects on my own that I want to write about, but write for challenges, fic swaps etc. There'll be thesis-writing for the winter and spring so I really think I should use the time that I have now for something creative. Buuuut somehow I'm always so, idk, bleh. Meh. Bleh. It's like I could but then I just don't do it. -.-

Mm, you're probably right. I still worry, though. Or like, worry that my friends will think I'm neglecting them, or something. I worry a lot about things I shouldn't worry about. [/facepalm]

Good luck with your thesis! As for fic, hmm... not sure how one would approach that! I would suggest grabbing prompts from the kink meme or something, but I don't know if you're into that :Va

I think the lack of social activity should be cause for concern if it looked as if it was part of something larger. If you've managed to retain interest in your other hobbies and you aren't struggling to find the effort to make it through the day in general, then it's probably nothing to worry about :)

I haven't gone on to Goodreads in forever. I feel that when I get excited about books, I spent more time and energy into trying to find new books to read than actually doing the reading, oops.

Mph... again, you're probably right. On the other hand, I don't want people to think that I've been neglecting them just because I'm not as chatty as I usually am! I have enough problems with people thinking that I'm cold or something, even these days.

But it really is just a case of being "meh, I don't feel like talking right now, I'd rather read instead" so... I'm probably okay. [/facepalm]

"I spend more time trying to find new books to read than actually reading" SAME. ... and then I end up in situations like now, where I have stacks and stacks of unread books. Urgh.

This comment was very hard to type because my h key has come off my computer (including the little squishy plastic thingy that makes the key work) so I keep having to copypaste the h and it is very annoying. 8| Oh gods I can't wait until mum gets me some superglue so I can fix this. (Yes, clearly you need to know this)



Also holy shit, it's a mimes, get in the car!
