Creative Drain

kybearfuzzI had no plans this weekend. None.
Friday afternoon after work, I raked leaves for a couple of hours and found myself sore afterward. I was thinking of going to see the new "Suspiria" remake. It's only showing at the local arthouse theater and it was the "opening night," so I pushed it off to avoid crowds.
The next day, I went for a run at the gym and rushed to get home for a quick shower and change. I was going to go grab lunch and see a matinee of the movie. The more I read of the reviews and the length of the movie (almost 2.5 hours), the more I felt like not going. That length of time for a movie is a commitment. Plus, the reviews was comparing it to "Mother," a very artsy, out-there flick, which I had not heard good things about. So I begged off again, grabbing lunch and coming home to take a nap. I did watch "John Carpenter's Village of the Damned" on my DVR, which is something I've been meaning to see for years.
My goal for the most part was to spend a bit of time working on the next issue of my comic book, or doing some drawing, but the creative juices just don't seem to be flowing for me right now. I can doodle and whatever, but concentrating on a project or a potential project seems to be escaping me.
So the weekend is now done and I raked the yard and did laundry for the most part. Not what I'd call my most productive weekend.
