So.... tired...

I'm really, super exhausted today. All week. Which is fine, but, you know. Annoying.
So. I'm going to see Watchmen tomorrow. While, in the end, I'm thinking it won't matter, the main reason I'm going tomorrow instead of today is I know that between the violence and the fact I can't stop thinking about it anyway, it just wouldn't be good for me to see it. I'd be thinking/dreaming/obsessing about it all night. I want to be able to sleep tonight and have more time to think about it tomorrow (never mind I'm finally allowed to work on my novel again... YAY!)
Anyway, I also want some more time to get through the book. I'm about halfway through my second read.
I like it a lot better than last time (although I still can't stand "Tale of the Black Freighter". It just drags down the story for me, 'cause I have trouble trying to decide how to read it [interspersed with the dialogue or all together or once] and, frankly, I find it boring story. I get that it's a analogy or metaphor or whatever for Veidt and (possibly) the others, but beyond that, I don't know and I don't really care. I just groan every time it pops up).
Also, it finally sunk in why the world is all screwed up. The combination of the costumed adventurers (mostly Manhattan, but everyone) and the way they changed history all led to it. Plus, we're seeing such a small slice of people.
I really want to write a Rorschach-sue. Mostly, I want to write it because someone (don't know them; just saw the comment) finished the book and went, "Oh no! People are going to write Rorschach sues!" And I'm just so sick of it, you know? 'Cause, guess what? Just becuase people write bad fic about source material you enjoy, doesn't mean you have to read it. It also doesn't hurt either the source material or your enjoyment of it. There are always good fics out there, maybe it's harder to find them, but they're there. Just... stop being sucky.
Also, I'm thirsty.
