Lame Update December 03, 2003 - 7:21 a.m. I've been sleeping really stupid hours lately, and I don't much like it. I especially don't like the part where I'm not get a whole lot of sleep, when I do. Until today. I fell asleep around 5 pm and slept off and on for four hours. I got up for awhile, then went back to sleep shortly after Chris left for work, sleeping another five hours or so. That's a lot of sleep. But I bet, I'll still fall asleep incredibly early tonight. And it sucks. Of course, I've felt like crap lately. Just generally achy and sore. Mostly my neck and back. But I've had a sore throat for over a week now. Monday afternoon we went out and had lunch, then went to Walmart but decided against it because people suck. The crowds are already stupidly insane, and we just don't deal well with that. So any shopping will take place very early morning, or very late at night. There's still a crowd, but less of one. I've yet to buy, or even consider, a single Christmas present this year. It's like I'm not able to realize that the holiday is quickly approaching. I hope we can put a tree up really soon, as that might help. Just waiting on Chris to decide if he wants to use his existing tree, or buy a new one. The existing one is a little too big for the space here. So anyhow, after deciding Walmart was a no-go, we went over to Game Force and just happened to ask if they had the Buffy Gameboy game. Even though it's supposedly utter crap, I still want it. Obsessive much? They didn't have the game, but they ended up calling one of their other stores that did have it. They sent it to this store that's closer and as of that night, it's been sitting on hold for us. Chris is just waiting until after he gets paid tomorrow evening to pick it up. Before leaving there, I made the mistake of pointing out a case full of DVDs that were on sale for $10 or less. A nice selection, too. Not all crap. Also, there was a sale of buy three get one free. So he bought eight movies and spent just over sixty bucks. That's not even $8 a movie. Aside from my brother calling the other day, that's all I've been up to. He needed to get my social security number again, so that he could put me as his beneficiary in the event that something happens to both him and his wife. The conversation wasn't long, mainly because I had just woken up and was eating, but there was still that sound of disappointment in his voice. He also made some comment like 'You don't talk much, do you?' If you had to ask that, then you obviously don't know me so well. Also, I think I'm afraid of his criticism, so I hold back from saying much of anything just to avoid it. Not that criticism in and of itself scares me, it's just the way he says things. And the frequency in which he says it. Speaking of feeling useless, I also started playing The Longest Journey recently. Other than being insanely heavy on the exposition at times, I really like it. I even have the soundtrack, as they offer it for download on the official website.
