The Last Time I Did This, You Got Two Rants
A few months ago, when I posted another personal rant on a Thursday, the result was two personal rants posted that week and nothing else. Well, unless something will really change in a good way over the next couple of days, that seems the most likely scenario for this week as well. Quite frustrating, in fact, seeing as I obviously have a few posts swimming through my mind, as is usually the case, but I just can’t get myself to write about them. Usual scenario, just perhaps a little worse than on an average week.
Yes, Risen does have something to do with it, as I seem to have really gotten into it and really don’t want to waste the moment and end up giving up again, but that’s hardly enough to explain all of it. For example, even though I played for at least some six hours on Tuesday, I only put in a couple of hours yesterday, all of it at night, so it certainly didn’t prevent me from writing something during the whole rest of the day. And today I started playing shortly after waking up, but then stopped after a couple of hours just to write this… But “this” is just a personal rant, largely about why I can’t write about anything else.
Hell, I can’t even write an e-mail to my representative in the Chamber of Deputies. There is now a campaign against modifying the mining law in ways that are quite clearly tailored specifically to favor the Rosia Montana mining project, so I certainly wanted to be a part of it, but it’s not working. Can’t seem to be able to use e-mail for anything in any way important anymore. But that’s another story…
Getting back to the blog, one of the things I really want to write about has to do with the fact that last week I finally got around to watching Zeitgeist: Moving Forward, which is the latest in the series, and I had plenty of comments to make. But something like this ties in really well with the fact that I’ve been saying for years that I really should get around to writing about my view of an ideal world, perhaps starting with the part about a necessary new economic system, and that’s obviously not happening. Have to hope that this post will get written in the near future though, even if those others still won’t be, but not right now…
Writing this, or in fact not writing anything but this, just got my mood down even more. Don’t even feel like getting back to Risen now, so I guess I’ll just be moping around and feeling like shit for a while longer. Then maybe I’ll get sleepy and go back to bed, since I woke up after getting less than five hours of sleep this morning and decided I might as well get up then and make up the difference later during the day. Seems to work better that way, especially during such periods.
