5:08pm - I'm still feeling pretty off kilter, but at least the temperature seems to have gone up. My hands aren't freezing and I'm even out from my bed and in the living room on the sofa. No blankets.
Anyways I'll try to work some more and see if I can get balanced again.
So far I've come up with simulating personality using the HEXACO model, simulating affection with affection and trust, and simulating the six basic emotions, anger, disgust, fear, happiness, sadness and surprise.
But how do I turn this model of personality, relationship, and emotion into behavior that the player can recognize and act on?
5:38pm - I went over to Emily Short's twitter and blog to see if there was any inspiration to be had. It was a little overwhelming, but at least I found out about a couple of books I'm interested in now. I added them to my Wishlist. Of course, one isn't out yet; it comes out in March.
5:45pm - Now I'm frustrated because I want to take a nap, but I also want to do more work. But, I'm not sure what else to do here.
Alright I'm going to leave this open for now and lay down, and probably take a nap, but if I get a good idea I can come back out and work some more.
12:29am - I spent at least an hour, maybe more, rocking restlessly in bed, before falling asleep. Now it's past midnight and the guys want my attention, but I don't want to finish this work post yet. So I'm going to leave it open and post any other thoughts I have here.
3:00am - Oh well, that didn't work out. I'm gonna go to bed.
