all made up with nowhere to go

My mental and physical health have taken a nosedive recently, so THAT'S FUN. Usually I can handle when it's one or the other, but both of them decided to tag team me, wheeeeee!

I'm not going to go into more detail than that for the moment, as I have some plate spinning that I need to deal with first, but I am going to go to the doctor about both things, so I am working on getting it sorted.

In other news, have a meme!

lassarina did a meme whereby someone had chosen three interests off her profile page for her to talk about, and anyone else was welcome to comment and let her pick three interests off their page, for them to talk about. So I did. And if anyone wants me to pick three for them, let me know in the comments!

Rina picked: Digital Devil Saga; Yume Nikki; Ancient Egypt

( blather under here )



I hope those were adequate explanations; if anyone wants more details/clarifications, feel free to ask!

What I wanted to do: spend the entire day drawing

What I actually did: mostly played DDS2

I also had a semi-baking disaster (brought on because I assume our oven runs cold when sometimes it doesn't. Like today). That aside, what I baked (chelsea buns) came out edible, if horribly burnt on top. I put too much sugar in, accidentally, so they taste like diabetes. Won't be making that mistake again.

They made the house smell awesome (like mixed spice), though, so that's a plus side.

So yeah, DDS2. Now stuck on another boss (Vrita). It must be something about the EGG building *sighs*

My brain is now shipping Roland and Argilla. I wish I could say I didn't know why (like why I ship Heat and Argilla. I just...don't know!), except that I totally do.

I'd say more, but I'm brain-dead and should totally be asleep right now. So maybe I better go and do that.

~ Last night I dreamt that they made a film about Richey Edwards. Whoever was playing him was spot on looks-wise. However, whoever it was who was playing Nicky Wire did an even worse Welsh accent than me (and mine is baaaaaaaaaaaaaaad, so I know what I'm talking about).

~ Started playing DDS2 again yesterday. Because it's so long since I looked at it last, every fight became epic/over using Analyse, since I had completely forgotten every single elemental weakness the enemies had. Some of them I hit by pure chance (which is pretty much how my gaming "skills" work).

I don't care if Cielo is not supposed to be The Load, he's still pretty useless IMHO. Roland is still being mostly awesome, though (he's not quite hitting things and they die, but he will be! I am sure of it!)

ETA: I am going to make Gale awesome because I rued not doing so in DDS1. [/eta]

~ I have hayfever, and it is epically bad this year. YAY.

~ I gave up smoking approximately two months ago. I have saved a grand total of ~£56, and I am hoping it will stick this time.

~ I am reading Contact by Carl Sagan. It's going OK, but sometimes the science goes *whoosh* over my head. Next up are The Shadow of the Torturer by Gene Wolfe (because I promised hmpf many moons ago) and Notes From A Small Island by Bill Bryson (because I love his books and I haven't read many of them despite owning most of them).

~ I need sleep.
