| TV, games, dog, sleep, crud |
 by Fëanor |
-Still trying to catch up on my TV. I'm watching the latest "Lost," which by tonight will not be the latest one anymore. Then I've got the latest "Battlestar" still waiting on the computer at home. Definitely need to find a way to make more room on the iPod for this stuff...
-This past weekend, our old friend Erik flew in from Cincin and we had a hardcore day of gaming with some of the original game night folks. It was a really, really good day, I think mostly because I didn't spend a lot of time planning and agonizing over how we would do it and what games we would play and how could we have the most fun and so forth and so on. I just took it as it came and had a great time. It was good to see Erik again and to just hang out and play some games together like the old days...except this time for over 12 hours. Also got to show off the Wii and Guitar Hero II, which really made me itchy to get back into GHII again.
-Meanwhile, the dog is becoming more neurotic by the day, it seems like. Or maybe he's just going through phases. But right now he's in a phase where he shakes with fear when new people come to see him in the condo, and even when he's alone with just us, for some reason he refuses to turn the corner in the entrance hallway, which means most of the house is inaccessible to him, including his food and water bowls. We've been able to get him to eat in the past by sort of waiting him out or coaxing him on, but last night I just got really paranoid that he might be really thirsty and hungry, so I moved his bowls closer. He wolfed down his food immediately. He's such a freak.
I've been trying to coax him down the hallway with treats, but I'm not having much success. He's just not very motivated by food when you get right down to it. I don't know, maybe we just need to wait him out again, like we did the last time he was acting like this.
-Neither poppy nor I have been sleeping well lately. My lack of sleep is mainly my own fault, but hers is due to some really nasty and pernicious insomnia. Hopefully we can make that go away soon, because it's certainly not helping!
-Today just seems like a really crappy day. Nothing in particular is wrong that I really want to talk about here (besides what I've already mentioned, of course), but there's just a lot of background noise that's worrying at me. Ah, well. I should eat lunch and get back to work. Hope you're having a better one! |
