CountryMouse's Refuge

So I'm eating a late late meal and am online on my Eee.

Grrr. I thought I was very sleepy. Then when I got into bed, all I did was toss and turn and fume. :-/

So much for staying on some kind of sane schedule for my meals. ::sigh::

I got to bed around 4:45am. I actually felt pleasantly tired (finally) and was able to drift right off in my soft flannel leopard-print pj's.

I got up around 10:30am. Long breakfast, interrupted by phone calls and online.

Now Bunnicula is out getting the mail at the post office and probably taking some gorgeous photos of flowers.

I'm waiting for my counselor from Cancer Family Care to show up at 2:45pm. I don't really want to get into "Innocent Life: A Futuristic Harvest Moon" until after she leaves. And I don't feel much like doing anything else except fool around online. Or maybe play some Hardwood Backgammon.

I played "Innocent Life: A Futuristic Harvest Moon" for HOURS after my counselor left.

I just finished reading (skimming some parts, to be reread later) the FAQ/walkthrough I've been using. I'm possibly in the last peaceful part of the game for some time to come. Once we get to the baking for the Christmas Party, it's gonna be fast and furious from then on.

The one really good thing about this game is that's it's NOT real-time like the Animal Crossing games. I can leave it alone for days, if I wish, and everything will be the same as I left it. No dire consequences for skipping days (or weeks) of gameplay.

What I have been twittering about today:

• 01:43 @mitchmaddox Hope you and/or your wife don't think I'm stalking. I used to follow you in 2000 and wondered what had become of you is all. #
• 01:45 @annemaddox I used to be a fan of your husband's in 2000, wondered what had become of him, found you are a knitter too! #
• 01:46 Can't sleep. Up late late late eating a late late late meal. On my Eee in the bedroom whilst eating. #
• 02:06 @thatyarnstore Uh...Daylight Saving Time began on March 8th in the USA. #
• 02:08 I'm more a crocheter than a knitter, so I thought crocheted socks might be easier than knitted. Wrong? Patterns look complicated! #
• 02:17 @thatyarnstore Eeep, thought you were in California, USA! Sorry! I think DST is unnecessary and should be abolished! #
• 02:30 Feeling like everyone else went to bed, looked at public timeline! Hi, @MegFitz we like "Dollhouse" too! #
• 02:37 @jsr7 I want a DSi, but no money for pre-order now. I love Nintendo stuff, although my current game is for the PSP! #
• 02:38 @jsr7 More info on "storage solution for the Wii"??? Clueless, but need to know! #
• 02:52 Should get out my flannel pj's. Chilly in here, 40*F. outside at present. I don't know if our heat is still on. #
• 02:59 @JaneBunny Good morning! I'm still up! :-P 4am here. #
• 03:10 Nuts. I didn't put Hardwood Backgammon on this computer? Okay, later today/tomorrow. #
• 03:15 Finished eating, gonna shut down. Might #
• 03:16 oops...knit or crochet a little before hitting the hay. #
• 10:43 @jsr7 Thanks for the info! We can't use our Wii at present because of a roof leak in the living room--Wii is put away for who knows how long #
• 10:43 @mitchmaddox Thanks for writing back and reassuring me. I was hoping it didn't seem weird. :-P #
• 10:50 @MegFitz Wrong Brideshead--my fave is Anthony Andrews and Jeremy Irons. Like remaking Gone With The Wind. Eek. #
• 11:06 @MegFitz I have to say I haven't seen the remake. I loved the original so much. #
• 11:08 Okay, off to eat (late) breakfast. Then I'll probably be playing IL:FHM or possibly crocheting on my Spring Spiral Hat. #
• 11:09 IL:FHM = Innocent Life: A Futuristic Harvest Moon #
• 12:50 Not enough time to get started on anything. Appt. with counselor from CFC. She will be here 2:45pm. #
• 12:50 I *could* crochet...but I'm not in the mood exactly. #
• 21:24 Played Innocent Life for HOURS. Was just reading FAQ/walkthrough. Wow, laid back it's NOT gonna be! #
• 21:51 @Kigurumix Well, there is a lot to do in a few days' time in order to appease the Fire Spirit. There is a sad event. And then.... #
• 21:51 @Kigurumix there is another challenge to meet. I guess you don't have to hurry as much on the second challenge. #
• 21:58 @Kigurumix Then again, maybe anything more intense than Electroplankton would seem stressful to me. :-P I do not do well with hurry-up. #
• 22:03 Tired, need to eat. I used to like the dark of night. Now sunshine makes me happy. Darkness feels sad...prolly missing Cat'r a lot. #
• 22:15 @Kigurumix Oh! Well, the 1,000 crop challenge sounds like it makes farming a LOT more hectic! Two farms! Time management--aaargh. #
