illusion_is_mine I took the day off work yesterday to take some much needed care of myself due to the stressful weekend. I'm feeling much better today.
My friend and I are supposed to exchange gifts today. She sent me a message saying that we're still doing the gift exchange today so I'm excited about that. I hope she likes her gift. I bought her a gift card to a book store (she loves to read), some pikachu socks, and a few other things that I figured she would like. I also put a cute little mini anime figure from fruits basket in her gift because I got them in an anime crate, and I didn't use them so I figured she would like it.
As for other things I spent most of yesterday sleeping, and played a few video games. I played a bit of Titanfall that morning. It's very therapeutic to killed bad guys in video games when you're mad at the world. It makes me feel like I have some control over some things in life which is reassuring.
I also forgot to mention the one good thing that happened at work. I received my Secret Santa gift and it ended up being really awesome. She bought me 2 graphic novel comic books. One of Suicide Squad, and the other of Harley Quinn, and 2 pairs of Pajamas with face masks, as well as some really cute socks. The person that was my secret santa is good friends with my sister so she really tried to get me something nice. I told her thank you, and that I really liked the gift. She was worried if I would like the comics, and I reassured her that I like comic books in general, and will literally read any comic book. I was very pleased with my gift.
As for music I started listening to Sopor Aeternus & The Ensemble Of Shadows, and I'm really enjoying her stuff so far! I wish I would have gotten into her music sooner. I'd heard a lot about her, but hadn't listened to her music until recently. I'm really enjoying the "Children of the Corn" album quite a bit. Her blog posts are also really hilarious.
Here's a song from "Children of The Corn" that I enjoy.

It sounds like you're giving and receiving some awesome gifts! I would love to get Pikachu socks and the comics sound great as well.
That song is really cool and I love her voice.

Yeah, I try to think about the person whenever I buy gifts. I was pleasantly surprised by the comics that I got. I've always wanted to check out those titles, but never bought them for myself. Now I can check them out. :)
Sopor Aeternus has such a lovely voice. That's really what got me into her music in the first place.
