I wish I knew what I ate last night that made me so sick. Bleh. Though it's just as likely to be stress as anything else--of course, I don't know why I should be stress-sick now, instead of last week when I was dealing with Australia and Robert Burns and fifty panicked pharmacology students studying their brains out 50 feet away from me every day....
Probably need to scale back a little on playing Persona 4. The first thing I thought when I saw the soup-like fog outside my window yesterday morning was, "Gah, I should have stayed up late and finished that dungeon--now it's too late and someone's dead! I'll have to rewind a whole week!" Surreality~ Not quite as bad as the let's-drive-the-car-into-that-mailbox! that comes after playing too much Katamari, but close.
Am amused that I have now seen at least five or six people on LJ openly admit to going starry-eyed over the protagonist's uncle, which means there are probably a lot more out there. I wonder if the game designers would be "???" over the fact that some fangirls are skipping right over the young male characters and heading for the older, drinking, smoking, rolls-his-sleeves-up, scruffy-but-attractive cop...okay, maybe they wouldn't be surprised. XD And they let the MC dream about him, so I have to wonder if they're encouraging the Wrong as well.
Oh, hey! In the spirit of Chrismahanukwanzakah/the solstice/general winter-ness, would someone like an ARC of The Fires of Vesuvius: Pompeii Lost and Found? Amazon page here. I reviewed it a few months back, and now that it's been officially published there must have been some extra copies, because I received a lovely hardcover version in the mail yesterday. It's nice, but it also means that I really don't need the review copy taking up space on my shelf, so...anyone want it? (I gave it a positive review, so you needn't worry I'm trying to pawn I book I hated off on you. XD ) |
