For anyone new to my blog

Is it the shift into the winter season? I am not tired, but I do feel a lack of energy. Year by year I end up in the same situation, however, with every new season I learn to deal with it better. I took some time off work, and spent my leisure time reading and gaming, mostly.  

I read Freida McFADDEN’s “The Housemaid” on the train ride I took to visit my brother on Sunday. It’s mind-boggling to me how women are so invested into true crime, because Freida pushed my heartbeat higher than my yearly jogging does (I wish I was more consistent but yeah). Now I am finally brushing up my book backlog and starting with Kevin Barry’s “The heart in winter”; seems to be a story of hope; it’s written sporadically, but poetic and earnest, the enactment or rather an mise-en-scéne of emotions, a sudden turn to the reader: What do you think? is tiptoeing in your thoughts as to not agitate the known, the self, and risk loosing the unknown, the self. Fuck! SHIT! God, dammit! In the meantime, I kicked off Brandon Sanderson’s “Stormlight Archive” series and like it as well.  

Gaming-wise, Battlefield 6 and Dying Light were released, which is super fun.  

Today’s post is a bit meta, since I am not in the mood to write about anything. The “mental retardation” story is going great, but writing alone is boring at times.

Work is also fine, even though the increasing number of events I have visited in the last few weeks does strain me considerably, simply because I am not used to the amount of exposure.  

I still haven’t worked out “consistently”; it’s been months at this point. I used to do Yoga for more than two years; I miss the days when I was flexible and back-pain free. 

For anyone new to my blog, I would suggest the following posts to get a feeling about my writing: 

1. Mental retardation 

2. Das Schaf und der Papagei 

3. I could never survive a terrorist attack 

4. Is my table happy to be one
