I did it again: I put my Civilisation disk in the bin.

I’d had it a week; it was purchased in Morrison’s for £4.99 and I’d had it a week.

I thought I was being good. I thought I had it under control. I thought I could keep a lid on it…

Just one more turn?

How did it get to be three in the morning? How long have I been sitting here dying for a piss? How long ago did I make that stone-cold cup of tea?

I’ll get up in a minute. Just need to kick the Mongols off my continent, take this city, finish this advance, build this Wonder, nuke the shit out of the Vikings (‘cause I know they’re going to do it me)…

Just let me finish this bit…

If I build Cathedrals, this city on my borders will turn. Okay, Universities then. Mass Transits. What do you mean my borders are being invaded?

I know, the cats are hungry. My mother will be here with Isaac in a minute. I must do some housework. Laundry. Dishes. Vacuuming. Dinner!

Just--!

I put my Civilisation disk in the bin.
