Prompt Card: You are suffering from Altschmerz (weariness with the same old issues that you’ve always had — the same boring flaws and anxieties you’ve been gnawing on for years, which makes you numb to them and they're no longer interesting to think about).

I've written autobiographical stuff at great (and I mean great) length since joining WdC. Every so often I decide enough is enough re wallowing in the dim (or should that be grim?) and distant past. And, like New Year resolutions, it never lasts—see "Broken Reflections" in this very activity. One of these days I'll eventually manage to shut up on the topic.
