Lazy day playing the Sims – Day 35
March 14th, 2010
Yeah, the title says it all.
To start, I woke up late due to two factors: going to bed at 2 a.m. and the wonderful practice known as Daylight Savings Time. So once I crawled out of bed at 11 o’clock, nearly half of my day was already gone. I’m not going to berate myself over it though, like I normally would. It’s Sunday. I’m allowed a day to recharge and slack. It’s very much needed.
I read over my journal for a couple hours while I waited for my laundry to wash and dry. Took more notes. I’m nearly done with the year 2001 and as I begin to ease on into 2002 I’m sure I will find even more events, thoughts and feelings to write about. It’s strange reading back on some of this stuff. I was depressed, granted, but I was also very much over dramatic.
November 2nd 2001
I’m horrible. I’m horrible.
My head is a mess, a huge wash of indescribable sound. Voices and screams. Metal scratching on metal. How blatantly obvious.
Maou said that humans were trite.
Are we? Do we always fall into the same traps over and over again without learning a single thing from the past? Or is it just a quality that is stuck within my soul. That lusting for the wicked. Insipid. How disgusting. But you can’t refute solid facts. I crawl and crawl carpet and nail with head up-lifted. Eyes glazed and—
Shoot me.
“What fun would that be?”
I’m not too sure, but you enjoy my falling and suffering.
“It would be a lie to say otherwise.”
But demons lie.
I like watching my Sims do crazy things. I trapped some neighbors in the pool so they’d die; my teenager wanted to see a ghost, so I thought I would make a couple for her. It was fitting, I thought. I think the Sims would make a pretty hilarious horror movie if done right.
WE CAN’T GET PAST THIS FENCE!
I need to work on my writing some. I’m too stuffed with minimalism. Maybe I can try my hand at putting together a local writer’s group. A way to hone our writing skills, that would be something fun to do for sure. I wonder where I can start.
Tomorrow is Monday, and it will be time to get to work.
How about checking if the local library has any writing groups? If not suggest they have one. I think Lowell does.
I looked at the bulletin that the library puts out and no such luck. I think I can drum up people on Twitter though.
