I woke up at 6am, groggy and fuzzy-brained. At 9am, I went back to bed. I got up around 1pm, ate something, and went back to bed around 4pm. I woke back up at 8pm, and here we are. I know what this is, I done played this game, and it ain't good.
Not only did I not accomplish anything, I didn't even attempt to accomplish anything. Ben-To! writeup? Nope, and I don't care. Wash dishes? Nope, don't care. Clean the living room? Don't care. Grocery shopping? Don't.
My friends, the potential exists that I'm dealing with a touch of depression. Please bear with me if I'm not funny or anything. Not, he says self-deprecatingly, that I ever was.

Sometimes you can get a lot of chores done by either getting up early and then sleeping in afterwards, or just doing something mechanically while your brain is still half asleep. (Assuming you're not so sleepy that you drop things or burn yourself.) Summer heat and sinus can make the day kinda sluggish, so early morning or late night are better times to do things in the summer.
Turn on your tunes, also, and do exercise even if you don't want to. It helps energize your brain. Obviously that's not the whole story with depression, but it does help. Going outside in the sunlight and getting some Vitamin D are also depression fighters.
So does a schedule or daily routine, as you probably know. There's something about "I have to do this because today is Thursday" that can get your body moving even when your brain is being gray and uncooperative. You can make a rational routine for yourself. It's harder when you don't have external pressure, but you can do it.

I suppose I have another day of weekend, but yeah, not planning anything productive tomorrow either. ;p
It's okay to lose a couple days to the blahs here and there. It's not time to worry until that becomes the default. If it does, get help, 'kay? (Take the advice of the drunk man at your peril. Cake flavor...)

Was a little productive today - rescued my lost box of oversized manga from the terrible fate of still being at the ex's aunt's house. Got some sata andaagi for my trouble too. Other than that it's been nothing but fooling around on the internet, chatting with a local buddy, and playing a couple hours of Project Diva F...
