Today's Update

- Haven't slept at all these past 2 nights, but I've been sleeping about 6 hours a day, straight through, so honestly, I'm fine with that. It's a little annoying to not be awake for most of the day, but at this point I'm just glad I'm getting an almost-normal amount of sleep at all, so if that has to be during the day until other things sort themselves out, so be it!

- I haven't done so in a while, but I'm very tempted to start writing video game reviews again. I still want to make videos for a lot of them, but sometimes I come across a game where I have things to say but can't quite justify devoting the time and effort it would take to script, record, and edit an entire video, not when there are other video projects I want to work on more. Especially with RPGs, where I want to focus more on doing RPG Recap videos than on making review videos. Between that and Challenge Mode...

So it's tempting to go back to doing some written reviews too, reviving the video game review blog.I've kind of missed writing detailed reviews and finding good screenshots to use. I was never anybody who was anybody, so to speak, but I'm proud of some of the reviews I wrote in the past, and I have plenty of others that I could write now or else very soon, so it's looking a lot like I'll cave to my own pressures and start writing them again.

- More than half done my reread of Anne Bishop's Written in Red. I feel bad, because I really ought to be reading some of my many review copies instead of doing a re-read of anything, but I've been in the mood for a comfort read lately, and I know the Others novels fit happily into that role, so I've kinda prioritized a bit of mental-health comfiness over getting another book review done.
