Going to attempt to pull an all-nighter tonight in order to fix my insomnia. I've tried this before, and whenever I mention it, I end up going to bed at, like, midnight. But I'm really going to try it. I'm not going anywhere tomorrow, so I can sleep in as late as I like.
Don't know what I'm going to spend the night doing. Play P2? Crochet? Draw? Put the Xbox on for the first time in a million years and play some ilomilo? *shrugs*
I might yarnbend because I've been reading about freeform crochet and wanting to try it so badly. But during the day I'm mostly working (finishing a bag at the moment, and making a roll for Jackie to put her tools in). Also looking after mum. If I do it at night though, chances are that I'm in my room, so next to my stash anyway.
(Although from looking on t'interwebs just now, what I mainly do is freeform anyway, since I rarely follow patterns if I can help it. But in its strictest sense, I don't do freeform at all. If you want to see what I'm burbling about, google the Institute for Free Form Crochet and check out their coral reef. Amazing stuff is amazing).
On the other hand, I guess I could finish Jackie's roll, although I'd rather work on that when I am feeling awake (ha, and what I am feeling right now? Yeah. Busted).

Oh, yeah! Tarot references in Tactics Ogre! I meant to mention it before, and forgot. See, I collect tarot references in stuff (one of the reasons I love the Persona games, and the reason Escaflowne is probably my favourite anime, for two examples). I've always wanted to design my own tarot cards, but it's like doing a calendar - it'd be a great idea, but I am just too frigging lazy (and it'd take me so long that, by the time I finished, I'd want to go back and redraw the old cards because I'd deem the art too horrible. Heh).
Which brings me, kind of neatly, to Persona 2. You need to collect tarot cards for, I think, fusions (yes! HI, MY NAME IS MULADHARA AND I LOVE FUSING SHIT). I have a pitiful collection so far, because my attempts at conversing with demons are far from great. Yeah, you get to converse with demons, like the main SMT games (although these ones mainly ask you stuff, they don't demand ridiculous amounts of yen, or precious items).
The music is cool (it's Shoji Meguro, how could it not be?) But I think the best bit, by far, is no social links. Don't get me wrong, I do love the social links (especially my ability to make the Main Character a complete dick by Japanese standards), but it makes me kind of panicky that I have to micromanage this virtual life, or fuck I don't get these awesome personae. I suppose it's more a refreshing change than anything else.

So, um. Yeah. I'm going to go and do something that's not computer-related c:
