Yeah Dave I made my family of 8 Sims and not counting all the times I had to stop and ask people for amendments, it took me 3.5 hours.

Then an additional 2.5 to build the house, and probably another hour to decorate and furnish it to everyone's specifications.

If anyone ever asks me how much time I've spent playing video games, I'll just say:

- World of Warcraft
- The Sims 2
- The Sims 3 (and rising!)(it only came out in frickin' June!)

I first tried to build my own house and was disappointed that you couldn't furnish whole rooms as a set. So I bought a larger house, added stairs going up to an upper floor and had the Gal sisters move up there.

One question. How do we know whose room belongs to whom? I want the two girls to sleep upstairs but Chaz keeps going there like he owns the joint.

Once people sleep in a bed they kinda "imprint" themselves on it. So the first night you gotta kinda tell people where to sleep and after that they'll autonomously decide to sleep in "their" bed unless you tell them otherwise.

ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!

Not only am I unbearably frustrated/stressed/feeling like a complete and total idiot about an upcoming writing assignment for Non-Fiction writing, but I can't seem to buy a goddamn fucking month bus pass. Why? Because very few locations in the city accept either debit or credit card as a form of payment. How the hell can a major form of a city-wide transportation not accept either as a form of payment in this day and age?

And this assignment. Fuck, I don't know. I have to break down a paragraph of a non-fiction essay, finding all the different grammatical definitions within it (participal phrase, etc) and then write a short essay of my own in the same style. Unfortunately, even though I'd like to think of myself as a good writer, I've never remembered what all those different things are. We have a grammar book that's confusing as hell and even then, all the definitions go right over my fucking head.

Couple that with the fact that I have no social life, lonely as hell, been single for five years (haven't been laid just as long) and just...hating everything about my life these days. Feeling like a loser. Honestly, I've been tempted to just step out into traffic a few times while I've been crossing the street.

Failed my test like a man. Time to comfort myself with an episode of Arrested Development, chocolate milk, and a light nap before crackin' down on homework.

It's good to be the king.

Read the Mav thread about how to socialize. I know you have issues with meeting new people, but don't you have any friends to hang out with?

I'm wearing a long sleeve tee under two sweaters and I'm still freezing. Fuck this giant hole in my house.

Last time I saw a clock it was about 7. Headed into work now. Ugh.[/quote]

It gets better! Drove 25 minutes to work and found out they don't need me today! I just wasted a gallon of gas and half my morning.[/QUOTE]

I seriously wish my work would have said that this morning. I'd waste the gas if I could go home.[/QUOTE]

Yeah, when you have a nickel in your bank account you tend to prefer to work, even if you're dead on your feet. :drama:

I hate having to contact my father. It only underscores the fact that he hasn't spoken to me since I became disabled and I inevitably get depressed. Maybe I'll get phenomenally lucky and he'll actually answer this email, which only has to do with a bit of family medical history.

EDIT: Well, he replied. He didn't answer the question.

I know I'm a grown woman and all that shit but I'm going to go cry now.

So, my grandma has alzheimers. She's had it for a while now, and it's gotten pretty bad. Lately she has been in and out of the hospital frequently for pneumonia, and they finally figured out why she keeps getting it. Apparently due to the alzheimers her throat doesn't work right anymore. Some of her food is going into her lungs when she eats. They asked my grandpa to start thinking about when they should stop trying to treat the pneumonia...

Now it's time to put on a happy face and go to a wedding.

GAAAAARRRRGGGGHHHH! I am at the theater anywhere between one to three times weekly, and I still did not know that this was being shown. And I did so love Evangelion, too.

DAMMIT!

Watch the first couple episodes up to the laser shooting cube thing, imagine a few scenes with Rei and Shinji looking looking awkward and Gendo and his second saying how they should make the 2 closer and a scene of the last angel on the moon.

There you saw the first Evangelion movie.

I need to get a blog, because I think I use this thread far too much.

Rant1: I've been practicing line drawings in pen. I can do pretty well with most things, but somehow I cannot do humans. At all. Not a model, not even from a photograph. I'll keep practicing, but so far this weekend, I've done 20ish pages, none of them worth half a damn. Ink is so unforgiving.

Rant2: We just went over our monthly interweb limit. I didn't even know we had a limit. Anyhow, now I have to slack off my heavy internet usage, and this makes me less than happy.

Rant3: Old ex girlfriend that I've been hanging out with, and trying to maintain a friendship with, is acting girlfriend-y. She's saying girlfriend-y things. This really concerns me. I am not interested in her, but I hate hurting people's feelings.

On the plus side, the new visuals were very pretty. New Ramiel = creepy.

Also, the second film takes a rapid turn for the batshit insane.

Incidentally, though I realise it's nowhere near the same, you can actually find a decent-quality version on the 'net with a quick Googlesearch.

I think I accidentally donated my daughter's Halloween costume to Goodwill. Otherwise, a portal from the 5th dimension has opened up in my bedroom and it was the only thing taken away.

How weird...a post of mine from about 8 years ago seems to have resurfaced.

Seriously, good luck with that. I ended up just living with the hole in the ceiling.
