What do you do when you don't want to do a thing?

Are there times in your daily life when chores are relatively completed, and you find yourself not wanting to go for the usual distraction activities of days before? Such as playing with your computer, blogging perhaps,  meaning: reading and/or writing?

And the other hobbies, which might be too many to list, also do not attract you?

Very once in a while, this happens to me. I seem to get stuck in "neutral"; motor running and getting too hot, but I seem not to be able to go on "drive".

Nothing seems interesting.

And, as the saying goes: "It has nothing to do with you... It's me!"

I remember vividly that, when I was a kid, and found myself bored, sitting and staring, my mom would immediately say:

- At least go read a book!

There was this feeling that one could not, should not, do nothing. And it was not related to the idea of "an idle mind being the devil's workshop".

Heck, no!

It was just the notion that a healthy person should take advantage of the moment. All the time!

Well, mom... Sorry about that but, today, I think I am just going to STARE!
