I just can't seem to summon up concentration on things any more. Or maybe I just can't summon up any enthusiasm for AI lately. I have at least six images sitting around I want to do the AI on, that I'll be glad to see when finished, and I just keep on web browsing and mucking and messaging instead. Is it the timelessness I sink into when I don't have a regular work schedule to eat up most of my time? The changes in chemistry going on in my body? Vague depression (probably from layoffness)? Not enough caffeine? Weather changes? Any and all of the above?

I can't even seem to concentrate on reading a book. Which is scary when I stop and think about it. Because I can always lose myself in a new book. (Although the current new book is ultra-dense and needs to be read in small chunks... I'd probably still be able to devour a new Discworld or some other mind candy.)

Maybe I ought to try disconnecting from the net and turning off the music and the lights and just... focus. Try and figure out how to turn it on and off when I need it. Which would be a lovely skill to have.

The last time I did any actual work was Saturday last week, when my Internet was out. I keep meaning to take a few more “vacation days” from it so I can finish this project I've been working on far too long.

The Internet is an evil conspiracy.

"The Internet is an evil conspiracy."

I second that notion. :)

Treat the net like TV. For a long time, I couldn't focus long enough to even play a roleplaying video game. That's bad. I'm much better now. *twitches*
