variations on a theme

At the Art Hospital we're planning a staff show based around this theme:

Reasons not to make art. Different artists explore the distractions, reasons, obstacles, excuses, and feelings that prevent Bloomington artists from creating.

I think about this oh, at least once or twice a day. I'm interested, however, in your reasons for not making art. Or even not wanting to make art. Please comment! I really want to know!
