zehntaur has posted recently, and
non_seqvitvr is posting like mad, so it looks like I better get my booty in gear.
Vitamin D is my friend. Due to morning happenings several days last week, I neglected my supplementation and paid the price with a nice crash into depression Sunday and Monday. You could argue that after the dayful of hypomania I had the previous Monday, I was due for a slide, but usually it hits sooner……like *before* my period. Whatever the cause, I am so not forgetting again. Having to hold back tears at the sound of one’s alarm in the morning is not something one should expect.
I like knitting. Knitting is fun. Ravenclaw scarf has about 4” done and it looks pretty damn good.
Saw Narnia, which was great. As if to confirm what the director said at Comic-Con about aiming to make the movie every child saw while reading the book, parts of it felt as if I were seeing them again. I did want to shout repeatedly at the kid (pfff, not a kid actually) playing Peter, “You’ve got Ron-face!” but I think I managed to confine it to under-breath mutters. Not so for the kid across the aisle, who was old enough to be very articulate but not quite old enough to follow the plot 100%, nor to understand what an indoor voice is. Still, less annoying than the cell-phone idiots behind us in History of Violence.
Never again drinking beer during a late-running D&D session.
I would give a great deal of money and/or cookies for something that would keep me from rebiting my lip every time I eat. This has been going on for nearly a week and it’s getting old.
Pinning my hair up keeps me from wasting time messing with it. Looks good too.
Work gives us the 23rd and 26th off. I’m also taking the 22nd and 27th. Probably be making cookies or something equally unhealthful.
Downloaded Avernum 4 and have been conspicuously absent from Y!PP forums this week. The game is the latest in the series that introduced me to RPGs during the summer just prior to UCI. The guy made three games in the series, then did stuff unrelated to it, then remade the original three. What I've seen and played of those has been a definite improvement, mainly to the depth of the story and the quality of the graphics. A4, on the other hand, is enough of a departure in engine and interface that it's jarring, and for this long-term groupie, it borders on unplayable. I'll probably still buy it, especially if the plot turns out to be what I think it may. It has the potential to be a retread of 2 and 3 together, but for now I'm trusting the designer. We shall see.
