relax day

Today I didn't get anything accomplished. I got up at noon, for one.

I washed some dishes, I guess. I swept a little and listened to some more Delta Green APs.

But mostly I played Deus Ex: Human Revolution, watched X-files, read a little of John Dies at the End.

It was really nice. I only really felt justified because I'd been sick and, well, April was a vicious monster of a month. And I was just too tired to start a project or work on an old one. It was nice to have an actual whole recharge day. It's been a long, long time.

Yesterday was pretty laid-back, too. Pizza, the movie Infernal Affairs, and board games. Lots of tea. I did workout despite being short of breath, completing nine full months of workouts.

I think, even with the stress, I have been learning how to like things again. We watched some of the Americans and it's really good. I finished watching Exile (previously titled the Sunderland Experiment) and it was weird in a way that I really enjoyed despite some rough spots. Infernal Affairs was really fun to watch.

And Deus Ex is super good, the first video game that's really pulled me in a long while. The Wii U version seems to have some nice improvements over the clunky controls of the PC one and the gamepad support is great. It's very much a cyberpunk mystery and the mystery elements are engaging. So are the upgrades - they're fun and let you do new stuff. I know the game came out years ago but that is how I do.

John Dies at the End is really fun, too. I think I'm about halfway through.

As I type this, Goblin is watching through a slitted dragon eye as he cuddles Bruce possessively. I guess he is jealous, Bruce spent about 10-15 hours this weekend on my lap.

video games, movies, sick, books
