...and that's enough of that

[jethrien]

I'm slowly and painfully making my way through Portal--my video game reflexes are crap so the simple act of jumping onto a platform instead of falling into acid is a bit of a problem. Also, I get really tense when I keep dying.

And I just hit the level with the live fire robots who are actively trying to kill you. Holy crap, my heartrate feels faster than it did when I was running earlier today. If I just managed to spike my adrenaline again this week, I'm going to have to have words with my adrenal glands. Words, I tell you.

I think I'm going to back away from the computer now and try to convince my body that really, there's no bear going to eat me in hopes that I might sleep sometime tonight.

No. Absolutely not. It seems innocuous, at first--oh, puzzles! But then the puzzles start trying to kill you.

It's a really cool game, worth playing, but wait until the stress level comes down a bit.
