Big Word Diarrhea

The problem is that I don't feel like reading and i don't feel like writing. Stating it this way is only perpetuating the problem and making it worse. But I can't help it. I can't shake it off. I want to avoid all stages, a pre-emtive strike on all fronts.
I just want to sleep. alot. Or be busy with something that is so pre-occupying that it is like sleeping. like TV, or an experiment, or a social gathering.

...

But you see, i am ok. it is not that big of a deal. It is not an active part of my concious mind. It is just the low drone that everything gets immerced in for the moment.

I just gotta wait it out.

Music that made me feel (good)

Three Albums that were very special to me this past year were (in no particular order)

The Greatest- Cat Power (has a strong solidifying effect)
The Theater Fire-Everybody has a dark side (makes me giggle to myself quietly)
Ys-Joanna Newsom (i can't say...)
