I didn't write a journal yesterday despite enough stuff happening 'cause it wasn't really such a good day for me. See, I didn't sleep well that night because of a weird dream that kept repeating itself in an endless loop like that one Hellraiser movie so by the fourth time, I got in a half-asleep daze and was very uncomfortable. I was a teen playing with a highly customizable transformer-like lion figurine when the cops knocked at my door and said I needed to go to court because my neighbor had filed a complaint against me for supposedly stalking her. My mom then started crying and yelling incomprehensible things while they dragged me off to court. There my neighbor started laughing and everybody in the room joined while she said I was an idiot who was too obsessed with her and told the judge she'd see me in my backyard dressed in a lion fursuit and staring at her while fapping so I was like wth I'm just a kid and I don't even have money to buy anything my family is poor etc etc and the judge was like "yeah they all say that, you got any proof that you're innocent?" and I was like "how the hell am I supposed to prove something like that, she's the one accusing me so she should be the one to give some proof that I WAS doing that shit" and my neighbor said "how the hell am I supposed to prove something like that, you're the one who's guilty here so you should prove you're innocent you liar!" and we basically just turned in circles forever till the dream looped and I was aware it looped so when got to court again I'd go "ugh we literally JUST went over this, what is wrong with you people" and they'd go "dude we just got here, you're obviously crazy" and that'd piss me off so bad. And of course when I "woke up", I was feeling nauseous and it didn't get better. By the end of the day I also had a headache and a fever. Most of the day was spent completing the first expansion campaign in AoE II and when I was done, I was getting ready to play a random map when I noticed the HD version actually has custom scenarios in it. Dozens of 'em, in fact. So I decided to try 'em out and ends up all of 'em are in Engrish and most of 'em are terrible and clones of other scenarios. Plus all of 'em are meant to be played by human players so the AI has absolutely no idea what to do (and since they don't have instructions, neither do I; it's mostly trial & error) and just stand there doing nothing. Less than half a dozen scenarios were actually pretty good even with the AI alone and I imagine many of 'em must be simply epic with friends to play with. But when I was done and started feeling like shit, I figured I'd go to sleep early when my girlfriend had an issue she needed to talk about. I won't over the details since it's relatively private (private life in a journal? Blasphemy, Ibby!), and also since I don't remember much of it thanks to headache/nausea/fever/exhausted uhh.. quadrio? Anyway, result is I stayed up an extra two hours or so so by the time the issue was "fixed" (I've waited for her to login all day so I could confirm the issue is fixed but she hasn't logged in at all so I have no idea), I just dragged myself to bed and collapsed.

Today, on the other hand, I felt wonderful! Slept like a baby log, allowed myself an extra hour of sleep and started the day in beauty. Day went pretty well but wasn't in much of gaming mood so I spent most of it watching videos instead. Plus my throat was a bit sore for some reason so I didn't sing in order to give it a chance to recover before it gets hurt for real (I swear that instrument is fragile as paper; I wonder how professional singers manage). Not an eventful day at all but at least the forums are having a new burst of life so I've been helping that sudden outburst to survive by both participating and reviving a few old threads of mine that should also help it stay alive (or at least I hope). For now though, I don't think much else will happen so.. tune in next time!

Oh wait I almost forgot, yesterday's SOTD is now my most popular of all summer!
