Thoughts While Sleeping

I hate sleep. I always want to be active and doing things, like video game designing, or other stuff. So I dread going to sleep. Some interesting thoughts have come during sleep. Like a few nights ago, I had an idea for a crossword puzzle theme. I remember counting the letters in each clue of the theme with my fingers, making sure each theme word added up to 15. I lie there asleep thinking up words for a crossword puzzle to make. How dull must my life be?! Anyway, the theme was candy. I don't know why I picked it, but anyway, the answers are PEPPERMINT PATTY, PEANUT BUTTER CUP, and THREE MUSKETEERS. When it finally came time to make the puzzle, I thought the 3 Musketeers word would be at the very bottom since it has a bunch of Es and only one U. But the Peanut Butter Cup answer ended up there despite it having three Us. And not very many words end in U. Luckily, they were 3 or 4-letter words. I am lazy. I dreamt this on March 2, and finally got around to making the crossword puzzle today (March 4.) I also have been working on Aaron the Aant again, getting it ready for release. I added a death noise and a break noise. Adding the break noise was a little bit of a problem because the first time I did it, the trees didn't show up. But I finally got them to. This is one of my biggest Odyssey 2 projects, the other being Nice Ice, taking up most of the 2k I have allotted. I kind of gave up on the Q project, so I don't know what I'll be programming next for the Odyssey 2. I guess I'll take a look at what is on the Atari 2600. This is how I got ideas for a few games (Fatso and Chief Chef.) The 50-foot-tall Celery game idea came from the minigame in Mario Paint where you swat flies. I like to do stuff that hasn't been done on the Odyssey 2, no clones of anything already on that console.
