Off By One

Blurgh

As I write this, I am so ridiculously unmotivated…

I don’t know why, but every time I look at something that isn’t work-related associated with the computer, I get this massive sense of ennui, and a powerful desire to … well, that’s the problem. No powerful desire at all.

I could be working on “cron-o-meter”:http://cronometer.sourceforge.net/, and in fact, I’ve started hacking out the outlines of the changes I want to make, but the scale of the alterations necessary to robustly support the fixes we need daunts me, for some reason, and I can’t bring myself to start.

I could be working on learning Perl, but for some reason the language just bores me.

I could be working on my “Azureus plugins”:http://azureus.sourceforge.net/plugin_details.php?plugin=autocat, but — again — no motivation.

I could be reading a book, but I don’t have a powerful desire to do so at the moment.

I could be playing a game, but … meh. Just don’t care.

This is irritating. A long weekend, and a big, steaming pile of fuck-all accomplished. I’m not happy with that.

    Sez you. Who’s the one getting up at 5AM? Not me, that’s for sure.

    You’re all kinds of go-get-em.

    Love the idea of an autocategorizer. What would be so sweet be to be able to apply custom categories to torrents based on tracker, filename, filesize etc. Then it would be perfect to be able to specify a destination directory based on the category applied to the torrent. That way, music could go to one download directory and videos to another, etc…

    Sorry you’re not feeling very motivated. That’s a crap feeling.
