I realize this is all my own fault for playing a video game.
However.
Playing stupid Link game. There's a chest in a dungeon that I couldn't get to the first time through, and since it probably has a treasure in it that I can't win the game without, I try to go back for it.
Step One: Getting into the dungeon. Involves lots of jumping and leaping and floating and riding tornadoes and getting spat out of plants. One mis-step and you have to start over. Usually all over.
Step Two: Figuring out how to get to the rooms where the chests are at. Solving lots of puzzles and fighting monsters and searching rooms for the secret or hidden escape ways.
Step Three: Getting into the boss room where the door locks until you and the boss monster have duked it out. Except.
I already killed the boss in this room. So the door won't unlock until I kill the non-existent boss. And there's nothing lethal in here I can use to kill myself.

Not going? I'm surprised. But it's the weekend of 15 November.
The incident in question (which I am researching) was my discovery that either my rent check got cashed twice or I have about $600 less than I thought I did in my account.

I haven't been to the last several Orycons... May be next year, as my book should hit the shelves in time to maybe do some promotional stuff for it... I really need to buckle down and write the damned thing... I'm finding incredible amounts of things that need to be done instead (at the moment, I'm pulling all the books off my bookshelves and organizing them by theme, under the pretense of selling a bunch at Powells.)

*Sigh*
