The first half of today it rained. A lot. I was dead to the world last night while I slept, so I woke up with quite a bit of water on my windowsill on the inside, since I had the windows open all night. It was beautiful, until it rained. That’s okay though. My plants probably liked the shower, I’m almost certain.
The rain made playing video games today all the more sweet. Like reading a book on a rainy day, playing a video game feels just as cozy. And so, I curled up on my comfy recliner for many hours today, slaying shadows and repairing social links that went sour.
Not to self: Don’t record gameplay with a digital camera ever again.
No matter what you do in life or where you go or who you meet, you will always learn something, and a lot of times that something you learn is about yourself. Valuable insight. A glimpse into the mirror. And no matter how many people gripe and whine and bitch about the evil in video games, there is still something to take away from them, even if it’s a small piece of something.
Chidori admitting her fear of attachment (rather than having a fear of death, like most people) was something that struck an odd, minor chord with me today. It’s one of those things that deep down you know, but until someone or something disturbs it on the surface, you don’t realize or acknowledge that it’s there in the first place. Thanks Chidori. I’ll have to work on that.
Gotta work on website stuff tomorrow so I can get paid. Worky, work work. I guess the play days had to finally come to an end, huh? I’m still going thrifting on Monday. I owe that to myself for sure.
