In Which songs from 2011 bring me some memories of days past... a post done out of nostalgia

Good morning my excellent friend, reader of this present post! How are you? How is the week going? It has begun, and I pray, in a good way. I am overall okay. Not much else to be said, really. Just awaken way too late in the night/early in the morning. I will likely be sleepy by 6 to 7AM, but I won't desire to sleep. It will be that annoying battle against the heavy eyes. At times I am with much anxiety to sleep. Maybe I should look for some other comfort beverage besides coffee. I did cut to 3 mugs a day, 4 if I am indulgent... I used to think it would just make me stay awake, but it just mitigates sleepy time, so the enchantment over caffeine has been dimmed...  This is just a series of impromptu thoughts I had when the social media algorithm recommended me a post with by now old songs, tunes that were mainstream a decade ago. Imagine, a whole decade! In fact, 16 years ago, give it or take... bitter, that it went away so completely. I was 14, then, I am 27 now. Almost 3 decades o...

In which we talk about creative block!

Hello everyone, happy Wednesday and good morning!!! How are you and how are things going? I wish you the best in this rainless day! I'm just here watching The Office while writing this post about something that's affecting me right now: CREATIVE BLOCK!
YES, THE DEVIL IS HERE TODAY, PAYING A VISIT, WHICH IS TRAGIC! I'm 100% out of ideas today! But it's actually worse than that, I'm out of ideas, with no inspiration in sight, and also completely unmotivated for today, a perfect storm known by the name on the title! The situation is reaching a point in which I almost left today without any posts, but I really didn't want to use the red emergency button just yet, I know I said my schedule is more of a guide than an order, but I really wanted to write something today inspite of my situation, so here we go to talk about what's troubling me right now, and this might be something that's troubling you too!
Creative block is a really bad thing, the ideas seem out of reach, you feel tired and with no clue what to do, and this can led to frustration easily. Your life can feel grey and honestly sometimes everything may sound bland, I think it's something related to boredom, and usually it comes with it. And how do I cope with that? Well, you can't really cope with this weather of your mind, you just have to wait the marasmus go away, and it will, so don't worry! Don't rush it either. Sometimes I do force myself into doing something though, even if the result is bad or just not pleasing, just for the sake of doing something in the day, since everything is better than just sit on the couch staring at the ceeling, no matter how fascinating the ceeling may sound. Should you do the same? Well... not necessarily, but if you feel like it, I don't think it can harm a living being. 
This is the evil of creative block, even writing this small post was a pain! But I won't fall into desperation, this will go away, and in the meantime, well, guess it's not that bad, I'll just do a bad sketch and if everything fails at least the ceeling looks nice today and the couch is comfy! I don't want to close this without any piece of picture, so let me show y'all this!


This is the self-portrait with blue spotted background, painted in 1907 by Richard Gerstl, an austrian painter! I just love it! Well, so I managed to finish this post today! Thank you so much for being here! I'm always so happy to share my words with you! I see you on music of the week Friday!
