(no subject)

I started playing Dragon Age II today. Because I needed to kill pixels, was feeling awful, and wanted to play video game. And I REALLY do not want to finish DA:O. Seriously. I just. I can't. Maybe one day, but not today.

Got a female Hawke (Eirian), and I love her already. Though she does kind of look like Joan of Arc. She's also the only one in her family who's familiar with hair dye (presumably because the programming to make the family look alike is based from the defaults you can choose, rather than what you end up with. IDK. It would explain why the rest of my family are as pale as death warmed over while Eirian has what looks like a slight tan?)

Also please please please someone tell me that the subtitles/on screen text are legible on a widescreen TV? Usually I have subtitles on to help me with audio, not the other way around. And I'm pretty much guessing what response Hawke has to make from the icons that appear, rather than actually reading the text (because I can't. I'd have to have my nose practically planted against the TV screen in order to).

Anyway, I haven't played much (literally just met Varric and got freedom to wander around Kirkwall. I think I'm supposed to go and see Aveline?)

Working. Feeling like I'm going crazy (my own fault - I'm not eating too well at the moment, but I am trying to remedy it). Feel like I need a holiday, but can't afford to go anywhere (yeah yeah, I know I've had time off work but I need an actual change of scenery). Got insomnia. Time I should be asleep.
