So, there I was watching a DVD of The Jacket, which finished, so I reached over, grabbed my controller and leapt straight from there into a game of Geometry Wars 2, which is a nice thing to be able to do.

Didn’t get a new high score, but I probably got my second best score ever, I think. The trouble is, after about 100,000 it just seems to get stupid and there’s no way to survive beyond blind instinct and subconscious control. It just gets too much for the conscious brain, but it’s not easy to just let go and let the dark parts of the mind take over.

The zone has to be somewhere you find yourself in, not somewhere you can go and search out.
