Should I try to force creativity? As a rule, I try not to, but after enough ennui, I’m willing to try just about anything. I’ve been playing this text-based free form role playing game on IRC for a while now. It’s really helped me exercise my creative muscles, but every once in a while I find myself drawing a big old blank. As I’ve said before, I’ve noticed that when I’m faced with the possibility of doing anything, I often find myself doing nothing.

With sustained effort, my imagination is capable of giving birth to vast, fantastic worlds with believable histories and entire cultures. In day to day life, however, I find myself staring at an empty text box. Anyway, I’m done belaboring my lost creativity. I doubt it’s likely to help things.

Work has been long and hard, resulting in sore muscles and a tired employee. I haven’t been getting much in the way of sleep these last few days, which only makes matters worse. We need to hire another driver, but for some reason my employers are a little more than reluctant. I’ll take the hours where I can get them, but it’s feeling like an uphill battle, to say the least.

I’m having a relaxing evening enjoying my last bottle of Dos Equis and watching Avatar. I might try to play Bayonetta later on, but it’s doubtful. I can’t even muster the enthusiasm for video games. That’s just sad.
