The Castle Empire from creators of Settlers is occupying all of my free time.  It's very addicting even though it's a simple online game.
The dreams have been softer lately, without much dying or persecution.  I attribute it to eating less before going to bed.  Also, I noticed that I am eating rice more than pasta for the past week.  I put the rice in seaweed paper and roll it into a giant hand-made sushi stick (with various spices).  Then I place it in refrigerator and have a filling snack.  I gotta buy more seaweed paper, since I ran out of it.  Next time, I will prepare Goya yellow rice and "sushimize it"
