I say "Lazy Day", what I mean is. .. Not a good health day.
-=-=-
I'm not 100% sure what it was, maybe just a bug, or maybe just my mind saying "OK. If you aren't going to focus on Game Coding, then I'm going to stop you working on JSE all day." and giving me a bad day as a result.
Breathless, dizziness, stumbling, the lot.
It was one of those days where, if the Doctors ever saw me that bad, I'd've been rushed into an MRI scanner for immediate testing. ... And then taken back to the ward and told I was just having a Migraine.
.. they did that once..
What a waste of an MRI.
I'm still not 100% sure why everything goes horrible like that. I think it's likely just a regular Migraine, but that I no longer recognise migraines as being "normal" migraines, any more. The head-pain just isn't there, or more likely a case of "I've felt SO much worse that a little migraine pain no longer registers"
Suffice to say, not an awful lot got done, yesterday.
I did bother to open up the JSE code again, *slaps wrist* and make a couple of minor nips and tucks, but nothing major was done.
Me and Mum have spent most of the night just de-stressing and watching TV, and honestly I think that's what my body and mind needed. A shut down, and a reboot.
Of course, I now have *checks calendar* about 36 hours to write an entire game, if I want to post it on Monday. That's not great.
I expect tonight, then, is going to be one of those late-night code sessions.
Alright then.
Headphones on.
Volume up.
Cheesy JPop playlist activated.
The Easter Scrunchening
Int. Church Hall - Morning
[The hall is decorated with Easter bunting and pastel-coloured tablecloths. Dave is standing proudly behind a display of chocolate-covered ScrunchCakes while various church-goers mill about.]
Dave: And here we have the perfect Easter treat! The world's first Chocolate ScrunchCakes!
Vicar: (inspecting one closely) They're certainly... unique, David.
Dave: Try one! I've gone for a dark chocolate coating on this batch, but they work just as well with milk chocolate.
Vicar: (takes a careful bite) Oh... my... (coughs politely) I think I prefer the original ones.
Dave: Greenie says the raspberry and white chocolate ones are divine.
Vicar: I'm not sure I'd allow that sort of description.
Mrs Thompson: (approaching) Did somebody say ScrunchCake?
Dave: Yep. The tasty chocolate sausage treet.
Mrs Thompson: I thought we agreed you weren't going to attempt these.
Dave: You'll be glad I did!
Mrs Thompson: Just because you can doesn't mean you should.
[Steve wanders over, looking slightly green]
Steve: (groaning) Morning all.
Dave: Steve! Try my new Easter ScrunchCakes!
Steve: (clutching stomach) Thanks, but I've already had three Easter eggs for breakfast.
Vicar: Three? You mean the little Creme Eggs, right?
Steve: I wish.
Dave: But these are different! Not just chocolate. Sausage, too.
Steve: (looking even greener) Think I'll pass. Maybe... .. Can I take some home for later.
Mrs Thompson: Don't encourage him, Steve.
[The Vicar is still trying to discretely dispose of his half-eaten ScrunchCake in a napkin]
Dave: (to Vicar) Oh, you're done already. Would you like another?
Vicar: No, thank you, David. I think I'll stick to the traditional Hot Cross Buns.
Dave: (thoughtful) OMG my god, I could've made Hot Cross ScrunchCakes...
Mrs Thompson: I don't think the raisins will work. Or the nutmeg.
Dave: They put nutmeg in Hot Cross Buns?
Vicar: Sometimes. Or you can use other spices. Cinnamon works well.
Dave: Spices? Like curry powder? Chilli flakes?
Steve: (holds stomach) OK, I need to leave, now.
Dave: (eyes widening) ScrunchCake Curry!
