There are some REALLY annoying flying enemies in BG&ER that shoot right at me whilst I'm trying to shoot at them. Shooting in video games is already my least favourite thing but I have to hit these things TWICE each. They come in waves - 1 then 2 then 1. I am not having fun! I've stocked up on healing items and will try again - probably Thursday.
A side question at church this morning was 'what is your hopeful song?'. It made me realise a lot of my favourite songs are pretty dark and gloomy, and involve activities I've never thought of engaging in. Maybe singing those songs (particularly Crawling, Runaway Train, Everybody Hurts, Hurt) are how I get those things out of my system...? Actually, a lot of my 'happy' songs are ones we sing at church.
I got in an episode of Psych. Things are definitely thawing! But Gus and Shawn made a REAL mess >D
And I've just watched the first two episodes of Becoming Elizabeth. I've always found Elizabeth I a fascinating character. She had to tread so carefully, even after she became queen. But the wrong word, a careless action, and she would never have made it that far. As far as I can tell, the programme is staying faithful to history. Looking ahead, it looks as though the series only covers the reign of Edward VI but it's already 2 years old. I wonder if there'll be a second series covering Mary's reign?
Managed to get out for a walk with the husband. It was a really good day to be out - overcast but not cold, with enough breeze to stop it getting too hot.
I'm in the office tomorrow, but it's a mostly desk-based day.
I've solved the problem of getting too hot at night. I'm sleeping on top of the duvet but under my bedspread. I really like being fully covered when I'm asleep, but the duvet is just too warm. The bedspread is just enough - I've slept like a baby the last two nights.
Speaking of which...
