Here I am Again

Must be a reason for all this procrastination. Not writing the memoir. Not writing the novel. Not learning about 21st-century publishing. Also not preparing my presentation for Tuesday. What am I doing instead? Feeling bored, playing solitaire, reading drivel.
Is this just 'short attention span' as a result of 'too much reading facebook?' Probably, in part, but what's the important piece that's missing?
Lots of nostalgia lately. Thinking about movies from long ago, stars I used to love who have died, or stopped appearing. Or worse, appeared lately only in talk shows and cameo roles. Is that true of the actual people in my life, as well as the characters?
I miss Captain Furillo and Miss Davenport. I miss Leo and President Bartlett, and CJ (both as press secretary and as chief of staff). I'm glad John Spencer got to have fun with his acting career and sorry it ended so soon.
I could be unpacking more, or arranging the living room better. I could be hanging the pictures I sorted three days ago, or the coathooks I bought on Thursday.
I'm stalled, and I'm asking why instead of just moving through it.
Hmm.
