Now that sounds appealing.
Playing a desperate housewife could entice women gamers
From the BBC article about female video gamers (and pink Playstations). Which raises some important questions; are we attracted by the idea of being desperate, housewives or both?
I suspect it was meant to be capitalised.
Scraping along the bottom today, mood wise. But got to work and may even manage to do some at some point. Spending a lot of time contemplating campsites near Hay-on-Wye and eating Minstrels.
We ended up watching Nausicaa last night, which was rather excellent and enabled me to try out some "resistance is useless" jokes which fell completely flat. I think possibly Mirrormask was slightly disappointing in contrast to Studio Ghibli; a bit too linear. Beloved tells me the Nausicaa comic is considerably fuller of plot, but I did try to read it at one point and found the style of drawing very impenetrable.
Time for a small amount of work before meeting Beloved for lunch. Must remember to pick up a cinema leaflet for Son as well, who is doing some sort of project using it. Nothing on again; where have all the decent (or interestingly bad) films gone?
