I am quite proud of the fact that, at the current time of writing, I have not been skewered by a banshee in ME3. I nearly was, the last time I played, but I hit Adrenline Rush (which triggers Bullet Time *g*) and ran to a safe(ish) distance, and filled it full of bullets.

I have also yet to be killed by a brute.

But do you know what made me cry this time? One of Shep's nightmares. Because Legion was talking, and asking if he had a soul, and basically I went ;_;

Stupid game making me cry all the time.

I have now done Sanctuary and the Cerberus Base, and I have a question! If Miranda died in ME2, who takes over/what happens with her bit on Horizon? I assume the whole thing with her dad and Oriana happens, but...what about Miranda? I only ask because she died in Zoe's game. (Hmm, TVT says nothing. Guess I will just have to wait and see what happens. If she magically comes back to life, I will NOT BE AMUSED).

I did like that you eventually get to kill Kai Leng. Bwahaha. I wish he would just stay still and let me slaughter him, however. I do not regret taking that renegade interrupt AT ALL.

Just Earth to do, now. Yeesh. It will have to wait till the weekend.

In other news, I started knitting a sock! On five needles (not just because that's what I'd been recommended, but also because I bought a set of 2.5mm needles which came as a five specifically for knitting socks with. Which I nearly typo'ed as cocks. I should go to bed).

I thought I only had enough yarn for one pair of socks (Regia; which is German, though I believe some of the best sock yarns are) but, on digging it out, I found I had a 100g ball of a make I've never heard of, that I managed to acquire for the grandiose sum of 50p).

Also I have learnt that turning a heel is 100% easier than it looks/sounds.

On insomnia news, I think I'm having the monthly grrs, because I'm really failing to sleep well at all. So this is no reflection on whether f.lux works or doesn't (I'm getting used to it now), and whether the advice I read works or not (it is to not look at any type for screen for at least an hour and a half before you go to sleep. REALLY difficult in our house - we have a widescreen, and my chair is smack opposite it. So I have to sit funny on the chair and try not to look at it. I would think use of f.lux on the PC would negate this in that case??)

TL;DR version: I'm still having trouble sleeping, but I think it's my brain's fault (it doesn't like me).
