It may be that you just need a few days or weeks off to get back in to the groove of things, but if you don't garner your interest back something like Seasonal Personality Disorder could be to blame.
I get moody and almost lethargic every winter around this time as the days become shorter so I addressed my doctor about the issue. He told me that Seasonal Personality Disorder (SPD) was likely to blame and that it is caused by the reduced rate at which the body metabolizes vitamin D during decreased exposure to the sun (exposure to a sun lamp a couple hours a day can fix this). I'm regularly a very active and energetic person, I run, rock climb and work out at two gyms 5-6 days a week but as soon as it starts getting dark around 5 pm, I have the worst time finding the motivation to do things that I normally love (this includes cigar smoking).
This condition affects something like 1 in ten people which I believe makes it is less common than actual depression but it is still something to keep in mind, also the upside is exposure to a sun lamp for an hour a day is usually all that is needed to take care of this.

:headroll::headroll::headroll:
take a break, find something else to enjoy. my desire to smoke goes down in the winter but that is usually when i turn my attention to wine, then once it heats up, back to cigars.
What he said
I've even felt like, "Geez....What an elongated fad! Now I need to sell all my cigars??"
It'll pass... I had a similar spell back in October. I quit hittin' the B&M's and the online sites, didn't make any purchases for a while and went a month or more w/o a smoke. Then one day, I'm tailgating at a football game and some preppy frat boy walked by puffin on what looked like Davidhoff Churchill. The faint aroma was more than I could stand and the next 5 hrs were murder!! I got home and smoked a DPG Series JJ and all was well.
