X’mas.

Merry Christmas, everyone.

Boredom

Yesterday, I finished up a few assorted tasks. Then I watched a few things I was supposed to watch. With all that done, it suddenly hit me. It’s a feeling I haven’t known for a while. Boredom.

I still have chores (packing my music library, for instance). I still have things I need to do before the year is up (lots of planning for my studies and so on). But I have to admit that I don’t feel an urgent need to get to any of them, and there’s nothing but the lull in the meantime.

I’m not sure I should be complaining. I’m not even sure I am complaining. It’s just that I was enormously surprised when it attacked last night.

I went to sleep just past midnight. I haven’t gone to bed before two in a long time.

I’m sure I’ll be able to figure out how to combat it by tomorrow.

Meanwhile, all my school work has come back, and the results should be out closer to Christmas. The work that I’ve managed to get back so far has been encouraging, so I am at least glad for that bit. I have to admit I wasn’t quite expecting that. In fact, in the middle of the semester, I was convinced I wouldn’t do very well.
