I feel totally yucky

Because I ate wayyyy too much for dinner, and then I watched Danny playing Saints Row 3 for a while and got motion sick on top of it all. The game is hilarious but urgh, so much wobbling. Also the siren noises were starting to give me a killer headache.

I am willing myself not to freak out tonight. I'm going to go right to sleep now and wake up bright and early and work my ass off. Okay. No neurotic bullshit, self, let's do this.

Oh and hey, we watched the first episode of DS9 season 7. Sisko getting knifed in an alleyway is really hard to buy-- I mean, okay, he wasn't expecting it I guess, but this Pah Wraith plot is way out of line. Whoever on the staff decided to cram it in there back in season 5 was a total jerk. I am no stranger to mixing in some liberal magic with my sci-fi, but when that involves retcons of characters' entire lives, and entire civilizations' history / religious beliefs, just to fit in your stupid plot angle lines need to be drawn. Damn it.

I had read about it on wikipedia by accident already, but Sisko's mom retroactively being a mysterious mortal form taken on by one of the Prophets, and his dad never telling him about it until season 7?

Come on.

Anyway, the knifing in the alley just doesn't make sense for one good reason: what the hell, is it the last dark, hidden alley left on Earth or something? If he'd been any more majorly set back by that, I'd have had to wonder if they forgot what show they were writing for. It's Star Trek and he's in the middle of Magic Science Central, sheesh.

Oh yes, and this week's ponies was great! I love the random magic elements of the setting when they reveal more of them, so the whole wacky Zap Apple thing was so totally excellent. Not to mention learning the history of Ponyville, pretty cool!

Better

Sleep truly heals most ills. At least ills of the nature I had. (And no particularly noteworthy weird behavior that made it hard to sleep! Though the cat kept licking my elbow, which made it very difficult to actually sleep while being unfairly cute.)

So what's one thing you recently discovered that makes everything seem SUPER AWESOME? For me, it is strawberry-flavored applesauce. Stuff's cheap, tastes like strawberries and apples, and makes an excellent addition to my usual breakfast of a banana.

SW:TOR fanfiction, only matters to like three other people, if that

Okay shut up what I'm allowed to write fanfic about MMOs, I've done it before. Once.

...Eesha, Photessa and Allisha make cameos. Ahem. Back to work for me.
