Mental Block

I haven't done bugger all today... well I've done less than I normally do anyway.
Some sort of mental block, though I dislike referring to it as a block because I would find it hard to believe that there is a Lego-ish shaped object lodged in my head blocking the path of my thoughts and if it was physically there, not being able to concentrate would rank low on my concerns.

But that aside I have been able to do some reading, mainly on 'Rules of Play' by Katie Salen & Eric Zimmerman. Has some nice concepts that can be applied not only to games design but all design processes. It also points out the progression of games' social development amongst other medium.
If nothing else It's an interesting read and has somewhat made me think about my approach to games design and development with more consideration for planning and testing.

*YAWN* yeah I know that was boring. I have been really lazy with completing games lately as well, I';m determined I'm gonna beat Twilight Princess tomorrow. Also been neglecting practice on Guitar Hero which is a shame because i just started being able to tackle some hard mode songs.

Well I'm off ( as if anyone would read this ).
