Stumbling Through The Dark

I had meant to come home and go right to bed, but then there were phone calls, and then there was dinner, and laundry and working out, and by then I needed to settle down a bit, so I put in a movie. While THE MACHINIST is slightly less horrifying than REQUIEM FOR A DREAM, which I had the misfortune of watching earlier in the week (and later nightmared about losing an arm), it's still pretty tense. Right around the part where the insane, insomniac main character is about to destroy the only good thing in his life, I turned it off and headed to brush my teeth and go to bed.

Lesson: If it's upsetting you, there's no need to keep watching.
