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.

There's a level of fear in taking a break. I have a compulsion to fill my free time with doing things that I like. If I sit down for an afternoon doing nothing more than watching TV or reading, it feels like I've wasted the day. Perhaps that's a mental trap that could bear dismantling. As busy as our lives our, having time to do Nothing is a joy that should be savored.

Last weekend was a small step in that direction. This weekend I'll be missing a wargaming tournament to help friends move... and having a cookout afterwards! A nice break of routine indeed.
