I hate this... it's 8:30, I have nothing else I need to get done for school tomorrow, yet it's too early to go to bed... nothing is on TV... I'm bored... so I COULD be writing... but I'm so brain dead that even thinking about writing is too much effort LOL. I feel like this every week day and on Friday nights too, which is why I take so long to write chapters now. Saturday nights and Sundays are the only times I have enough energy left to write LOL. Please tell me other people feel this way and it's not just me.

Oh don't worry Julie! I feel the same way! I've been so drained of energy during the week lately, that I sometimes don't even want to come on here! (yes, I know "*gasp!*") I was very inspired to work on one of my stories this weekend, but now, I've lost all hope in trying to write more tonight, because I had a business presentation today, and I had a test/experiment in science, and then I had to go to guitar this afternoon... And then, usually, after I've finished my homework in the evening, I don't feel like doing anything else. I don't how you feel

Glad I'm not alone. I get like that too, where I'm so tired that I don't want to do anything online, not even chat with anyone, because I'd rather just lie in bed and watch TV LOL. But nothing's on right now, so here I am. I have a short story/songfic idea that's been brewing in my head for about a week, but I have no motivation to start that either. I have the inspiration, but not the energy LOL.

aww, maybe listening to the song would help? Or listening to some sort of music. I find that if I have inspiration, but no energy, then I can sort of force myself to get with it and write when I listen to specific songs or whatever.

Don't worry - I feel the same way. I mean Julie you should know that I haven't written in over a year. It's not because I don't want to because I do but I just didn't feel it. I had a blank mind... But be proud of me - I already have written 2 new chapters the last 2 weeks. There is still hope for me and my story. I really want to finish it! =) I would love to talk to you again on YM but I haven't seen you online in so long. I try to write my third chapter the next couple of days!
Love, Franzi!

That's great, Franzi!! I'm glad you're writing again... hopefully that's a good sign! I haven't seen you on yahoo forever either. I'm on a lot, but usually invisible... but I'll try to IM you if I see you on! Or you can IM me and see if I'm there.

well Julie, you are definitely not alone! Working takes a lot my energy and I'm left with only enough to drag myself home to the couch, to watch TV. And I always work on the computer that sometimes seeing my laptop's screen makes me sick. I think in time, eventually we'll get used to it! It also makes me feel very useless -doing nothing, just going to work and coming back home, it's dreadful! I don't wanna be a boring person. LOL

LOL that is totally my life - go to work, come home, finish my lesson plans, watch TV, go to bed, and repeat. I love my job, but my life totally revolves around it. I think it's that way for most first year teachers though... I guess it would be a bad sign if it didn't LOL.

LOL it would be, indeed. But i think we'll get used to multitasking -as of organizing our work life, home life AND social life altogether- eventually. We just need some time to adjust. From time to time, I think about being married and having kids also -I guess women have a hidden energy somewhere to do everything!
