1. Still got insomnia, still not amused.
2. Still feeling like an unsociable bastard. I don't want to go out because the weather is so horrible, and I don't want to interact with people in general, because I can't be bothered BUT. On the plus side, I am not actually depressed. I feel this is some kind of minor miracle.
3. I have nearly finished Xmas presents for all concerned. Just got to finish mum's painting now.
4. Sold my first item (a scarf) and got my first order (some fingerless gloves). Feel quite proud of myself!
5. I got our portable record player out earlier, and listened to some stuff on vinyl. Nothing compares, I tell you. I listened to two albums I have had for years but never heard. One was Mr Bad Guy, by Freddie Mercury, and it sounds very eighties (well, it was made in '85). The other was Low, by David Bowie, and it sounded very much like the soundtrack to some avant-garde movie. I felt like I should've been in a garret in Paris, sitting on a rough wooden floor while listening to it. And it would've been snowing outside, in all likelihood. I also liked that the majority of tracks were instrumentals, and the ones that weren't didn't have many lyrics.
(Wikipedia tells me it was intended to be a film soundtrack, so that explains a lot).
6. I haven't played video games in forever, but I might finish up playing ME1 and start on ME2 over Xmas. Which will be a stark change as, for the last three years running, I have played an Ivalice related game. It's nearly becoming a tradition!
(I waver constantly on ME2. Part of me doesn't want to play it because fandom says it's awesome, and talks about it all the time, but then a bigger part of me wants to play ME3 when that gets released, and to do that, I have to play ME2 for any of it to make any sense*).
7. Ugh. That's it. I'm going to sleep.

*That said, I'm sure Bioware will include a generator for people who are new to the series, like they did in ME2. Maybe?
