I can relate. It ebbs and flows, but right now I'm content with devoting my weekends to working on my projects: also practicing music, organizing several terabytes of photos from the past decade, hobby robotics projects, making a dent in the tsudoku'd pile of books and films and media I've amassed. I think often of our modes of consumption and creation. I've experienced enough of those shareable interests to know that those are pleasant in moderation - human beings as social creatures and such - but that I find them to be primarily consumptive in nature. Creation takes a lot of time - often alone, occasionally frustrating - but the delayed reward is (usually) worth it.
