Maybe I'm just recovering from all the deferred stress of my mother's hospitalization and subsequent plateauing far short of her pre-injury self. That would make sense. I do feel particularly slow after talking to her and my dad, as if every minute were forcing me to tap into reserve power. Somehow, though, I still want to believe that knowing the source of a problem can be enough to diminish its scope. According to that logic, I should feel restored from having written something this direct about my state of mind. And perhaps I will. Right now, though, my thoughts aren't tending towards further productivity but more of the staring-at-the-screen lethargy that has been plaguing me recently.
What's the Opposite of Inertia?
