Artists are known to have 'artistic temperments', mood swings, odd habits and lots of lovers. I like to think of myself as a more practical sort of artist not so prone to the stereotypes. But every so often I end up with a good strong blue funk like some romantic hero*. As far as I can tell it happens after I work myself into the ground. I spend myself artistically and mentally and I spend a good few weeks or so drained and slowly trying to put myself to rights. This plus the fact that I have no idea what I'm going to do with myself after this semester also has alot to do with it.
So if I end up sounding abit out of sorts or more subdued than usual don't worry too much. I'm far from needing to be put on suicide watch, I just need lots of sleep, a bit of inspiration, and a good vacation.
*I'm talking victorian novels, drowning in vats of ennui and wallowing in self pity sort of Romantic. Not Romance novels.
