adric | Annoying..

Evidence continues to accumulate to suggest I am indeed having some sort of emotional response from the revelations of Tuesday. This is annoying, in various ways.

Wed evening I found myself responding emotionally (I felt sad.) to the story I was listening to at the time. Although that section is sad in content, it's just a podcast, and this is unusual, and unwelcome (The Secret World Chronicle¹ opens up with several first person perspectives on a vicious assault upon Earth by Nazi metahuman alien plot devices. I was listening the the second? part, which follows Blues, an EMT healer as her firestation is destroyed, and later in combat at Area 51. There's character death, but ..).

Later that day I found myself telling an abridged version of part of the story of my life to a recent acquaintance on SL, for no good reason. I only explained how I came to be (back) with my owner, leaving out lots. She was warm and sympathetic, appropriately appalled in places, usw. There was no cause for this, and it reminds of a similar maladaptive behaviour pattern from ten years ago. Right, sophocles?

Tonight, when the alarum struck at six, I shuffled over to it, nosed it off and back into bed for ..*math* six hours. I got to bed on time at 09:30, 18 would've been eight hours, this made for fourteen?! And I believe I was actually asleep or dreaming the whole time of it.

Update: My oatmeal was bland, tasted almost like bad porridge. Tonight's Twilight Zone episode: "Number 12 Looks Just Like You"
