(no subject)

Despite sleeping tablet, I had a horrible night's sleep. There is a reason for that, and that reason is that I have a cold. It is not the worst cold I've had, but it's still pretty annoying. Although good timing on its part, since I was already off work due to feeling like Zuko a heap of emo. (The only downside is that I have to keep reminding myself what day it is).

I woke at half seven this morning (my mouth tasted like I'd swallowed a robot), conversed with mum about how awful I felt, took some paracetamol, read a bit of a book, and then went and had the best two hours of sleep I'd had all night.

(I realise half seven is normal time for some people on Sunday, but not me).

The book's interesting. It's about insomnia, and the woman who wrote it has the same problem as me - in that she wakes in the night, rather than not being able to get to sleep. She doesn't have problems with waking too early, but apparently that's a huge-ass symptom of depression.

I then spent the rest of most of the day playing Okami, which I enjoyed much more than I did the day before yesterday. I have also discovered a bunch of stuff I don't remember from last time (now got ~20 demon fangs, but I really can't decide what to spend them on. I'm going to see how many I can collect first).

Tsuta Ruins make me think of the one temple in Majora's Mask (I don't know which one it is, 'cause it's so long since I've played, but the one near the swamp and the monkeys). Also some of the music makes me think of the Spyro the Dragon soundtrack. I have been meaning to say both these things since forever ago, and forgetting.

I think I've figured out why I didn't enjoy playing it the other day - because there's some part of my brain that decides when I have to be productive. Therefore, if I spend the day gaming instead of creating distressed looking collages (or whatever else), I'm being a lazy ass. Frankly that is stupid.

I need to make an icon, I think.
