Caffeine addiction, some games

I've denied it long enough -- I am addicted to coffee. Or rather, I experience the effects of being addicted to coffee. That is, if you bother me before I've had a cup of joe I will be likely to get upset for no good reason at all. However, once I've had a few sips I'll be a right Christian again and the day's troubles will pass over me like so much wind. Since it turns out that BioShock requires Windows XP (which I do not have), I downloaded (via Steam) Psychonauts and am really enjoying it. Actually, I was inspired to do so by the entertaining review by Zero Punctuation . The fact that Tim Schafer of Day of the Tentacle (one of my all time favourite games) had a hand in it helped. Eh, I don't really feel like reviewing it myself -- the video review says it all, really. A chore-filled weekend, if you were curious.

Can't sleep

Sleep! It evades me yet again! This time I woke up to troubling, irrational, senseless dreams. My body is humming and alive, and I want it to be quiet. I went to a karate class at a friend's school, and I worked out like I haven't in quite a while, my own school being temporarily closed for the summer. At least, I believe that's why my mind cannot sleep. I imagined that the phone was ringing, but I do think it could be so, that it was a trick of the psyche. In any case, here I am again, restless and surrounded by a thousand things undone.
