robotech_masterOkay, clearly I shouldn't have told my parents about my journal, because now they're pestering me whenever I don't write in it for a while. I suppose that's part of the price one pays for trying to keep one's life in writing.
Yesterday was another day of rest for me, largely dedicated to playing Starcraft online, with a brief interlude to exchange a damaged canister of soup and get a much-needed oil change for my car. I think that if I've ever gotten my money's worth out of any computer game, Starcraft would definitely be it. It's about the only thing I ever play anymore--that and Opposing Force Capture the Flag.
Today was six hours of work, and a slightly worrying one. I kept zoning, and feeling a little short of breath. Had to hyperventilate from time to time just to stay awake. I'm hoping that it's just because I haven't really been sleeping too well lately, and not a sign of anything more serious.
I happened to pick up another good movie recently--Running Scared, starring Billy Crystal and Gregory Hines. It was on $9 on DVD at my K-Mart, and I remember watching it on videotape a long time back at home, with the brothers--with that kind of nostalgia at that kind of price, how could I resist? It's a pretty formulaic film--two wisecracking Chicago cops, etc. etc.--but the chemistry between the two leads saves it from being dull. Billy Crystal is just hilarious.
I think I'm going to go relax by way of playing some more Starcraft and perhaps work on my résumé now. Whew, what a day.
