Crap. I'm in a bitchy mood today for no apparent reason. Hate that. Don't think it's PMS... don't really keep track so I could be wrong, but... Don't think it's the heat either, 'cause the past two days were hotter and even that wasn't that hot (although everyone else seemed to think it was, but go figure). Pre-con stress, maybe, or something? But yesterday I was all psyched about it and went to the mall to get cosplay stuff and met some cool people working at Suncoast starting an anime club, and I was all "yay! Con!" ...but just now I was working on my Shuichi cosplay, and there's a few details that just don't hang quite right, but not that big of a deal, and people came in and started talking to me, and I went full-out bitch. No apparent reason. Argh. Hate that.
Well, I wound up thinking that my cosplay looked like crap and no one's going to recognize me, but I usually think that way, and I'm usually right, but I usually have fun anyway, so... crap, now I've got a headache... Why the bitchy mood? Why?
I very nearly started crying a few minutes ago. My eyes were tearing up, and then I noticed, and went what the heck? ...although I've got a vague guess as to why that happened, but that probably belongs more on my other blog... moving on.
I've been bored beyond belief lately. Seriously, incredibly, bored. And I don't know why. I've got all the work to do that I had before, I've got all the hobbies that I had before plus two... but I get home and I sit in front of the computer and get off the computer and wander around the room awhile and get on the computer again and blog about being bored. And this has been going on for weeks. And I keep thinking, 'well, why don't I do something fun?' and answer myself 'what's fun?' 'well... um... hey, anime! Let's watch anime!' 'I've seen all my anime before, and all the rental store's anime, and I don't feel like driving up to the mall just to buy a movie.' '...okay, fine. Um... let's call someone!' 'People suck.' 'Well, aren't you pleasant... wait, you? Now I'm talking like you're a separate individual...' 'Yep. We're full-out crazy.' 'Anyway... let's work on our contact juggling!' 'Okay. There's a ball on the back of my hand. Wheee. I sure am having some fun.' 'Prick. Work out?' 'Already did. Yawn.' 'Guitar?' 'Fingers are still sore.' 'Piano's out too, then... and drawing... and typing, for that matter... damn. Walk in the woods?' 'Tempting... but too hot.' 'Geez... let's just get on the computer and blog.' 'Fine. Not that that's fun either, but at least my body will be moving...' ...and lookie, I'm still bored.
And what makes it worse is there's nothing to look forward to. It's not like, well, I'm bored now, but soon I'll be able to go... insert-fun-activity-of-your-choice-here. Which is wrong. 'Cause I'm going to a con tomorrow. Cons are fun. I was excited about it yesterday, for a while (most of yesterday I was just bored). But... I don't know. Not excited. And past the con... more cons... college... eventual career... trip to Japan... okay, there's a little 'yay' involved in that last one.
I'm thinking it's wanderlust. I haven't been anywhere in ages. The only things that catch my interest at all involve travel (although at times even that can't get me excited...). I want to wander... Sucky modern world, modern wandering bards so hard to do and all... *sticks tongue out*
Oh. Got an idea. Looking for deeper meaning in my life. That's probably it. 'Cause the things that keep me entertained are just that--entertainment. Not very deep, that. Even working out hasn't served any major practical purpose that I can see. I am the definition of practical (well, with my own bizarre self-interest twisting that ino whatever I want it to mean), but most of the things I can do to keep myself entertained are very frivolous. Video games. Japanese cartoons, for crying out loud.
Damnit. Deeper meaning, huh... Anything beyond this belongs on my other blog.
