one more thing

Oh yeah. I didn’t end up doing anything crazy this weekend. I spent my entire Saturday afternoon and better part of the evening working through Metroid Prime 2 (I just unlocked the bog temple, go me!), and was gonna hang out with some friends but got lazy and decided to bum it in my room instead. I’ll have to apologize tomorrow… it’s only the right thing to do.

And one more “one more thing”… one of my best friends (I have like 6 of them, and they’re all tied for first place) suggested I make a mantra for when my mind starts doing that psycho-feedback thing, like when I start thinking and thinking about what I’m thinking and start to panic about certain situations, which of late have been focused more-or-less solely on the K16M-L. I used to have a mantra for anger, where I’d put my fingers to my forehead. I got this from puzzle fighter, believe it or not, when my friend told me about the one character Hsien-ko that uses a paper seal to stop herself from going ape-shit when fighting. It’s kinda silly, but it worked, and lately I don’t really remember a time where I’ve been truly angry. I’ve been stressed before, and I’ve yelled once or twice in the office, but I’ve never been really truly angry.

Anyway, I gotta think of a mantra. It’s important, especially for those times when my thoughts seem to just run away from me, as that bullshit usually eats up an entire weekend, as it did this one.

Anyway, time for bed, or there’ll be hell to pay tomorrow morning when I try to wake up.
