Happy Canadian Thanksgiving to all the dudes I know in Canada!
Also, my new tablet arrived today, huzzah! It feels a little different form the old one, but thusfar it is working just fine. The surface is a little bit rougher, so there's more resistance when drawing.
This is something I've been thinking about polling on because I am curious. I used to think it was just some weirdo thing that I did, but now I'm actually starting to suspect that it's a lot more common than I thought...it just never gets mentioned because everyone thinks it's just them. But for many years now, I will usually help put myself to sleep by thinking out some kind of fiction in my head...usually fanfic-related, because fandom stuff is fun to think about. Maybe something I plan to write, but often not; it's just a story written out in my head, and it'll help me get to sleep, because it keeps me on something happy or comforting and not thinking on what's actually worrying me about that day or the future. Basically, it's a bedtime story.
So what I am now curious about is how many other people do this, too. Do you tell yourself some kind of bedtime story to help yourself get to sleep? You don't have to share what your bedtime stories actually are; I think they're intended entirely for your own personal benefit. I just want to know how many people do this, and how common it may (or may not) actually be.

Okay, and now the KH meme...
Kingdom Hearts 30 Day Meme
Day 21 - Favorite Opening Animation
Ummm...I think it'd be the KH2 opener. While the KH1 one is great, I loved that the KH2 one recapped a bunch of KH1 and CoM, so we got to see a bunch of the best scenes done in the full FMV animation. I'll admit I love seeing the Disney characters that way. And the scene with Sora and co. climbing the stairs in CoM is also really fun.
