A lovely word for boredom
That’s not quite right. Ennui is boredom and so much more! It’s being bored and tired at once!
What more could I ask for?
As it turns out, I could ask for a whole lot more, because ennui results from a lack of excitement. And, it turns out, that’s where I am right now. I’m bored with editing. There’s nothing really happening in my life except an upcoming cataract surgery, and even my writing isn’t piquing my interest.
Whatever will I do?
There’s lots of things I can do. Change my scenery, whether local or out-of-town. Find novel experiences. Find something new to write. Find something gripping to read.
It’s just so hard getting up to do something.
