Do you give up on hobbies when they aren't fun anymore?
Or is the fact you aren't having fun part of a bigger problem?

I won't be StoryTelling for the VHS in the fall.
I may not be continuing my mage game, which I still don't have a good idea for tonight.
Nothing that flows.

My gaming experiences as a player have all sucked ass lately.
Womped at cards again last night.

I'm sick of it.
Sick.

That's one word for it. When you first are exposed to something, it becomes imprinted in your mind. Anything that changes or deviates from your "snapshot" becomes inferior.

In the same vein of "it's not the end of the world if they say no", you can say "it's not the end of the world if you don't win once, or ten times." You can't just give up after a few bad experiences.

There's something to be said for running into a brick wall head first, too.

Well, there's running into a brick wall... and then there's throwing yourself at a wall of swords, hoping that THIS time you'll break through it instead of getting torn asunder.

Just riffing off your imagery in my sleep-deprived brain, pay no attention...
