    The Sims: Freddie the Influencer

    Ok so on my new laptop Sims is actually blazing fast! So I’ve been playing again. It’s been a while since we had a sims story on the blog, so I thought I’d share this one. I’ve been seeing people on Tiktok do this 1×1 room challenge where you start a sim in just a plain 1×1 square room and…

    try your best to hold on to sanity

    A friend of mine posted something about enneagrams this morning and I couldn’t remember what I was so I went to take a quiz to see. And I ran into the problem I run into everytime I take one of these personality quizes: costuming me is a very different person than real life me. Do I persevere until the job…

    the bold and the tired

    It’s Monday again. Working overtime Mon-Thurs this week to be off Friday… I think this is my first time doing this since I started working from home? Last year I had a bunch of extra time to burn at the end of the year so I didn’t have to ration my vacation days. Anyway, the past week has been ALL…

    that crying audio bit from tiktok

    That’s me today. Because I found these shoes for my disneybound Leia and they were too dang expensive and there’s no way I’m spending that much but now everything else I look at is just (me crying thinking about the jordans). I think what I’m going to do is find some cheap plain white high tops and just do some…

    it’s a very useless post

    Hey so remember how last Monday’s post I talked about being sick with a head cold? Well just repeat that because I still have this freaking head cold. I was feeling much better by Friday of last week but then Saturday it came back with a vengeance – or rather, it came back with a migraine. I just felt absolutely…

    climbing in the garbage can

    Got one more Christmas present from Chase. My work phone needed a case so Carrie Fisher in a garbage can seemed perfect. Got a good bit of sewing done this weekend. Not as much as I wanted… another storm, another migraine. But made good progress anyway. More work on the underdress. I decided to change the shape of the top…

    its the final countdown

    Sorry for no post yesterday. Had corporate in and I was so stressed I just couldn’t add another “thing” to yesterday. So today is my last day of getting up and going to the office. Tomorrow I start working from home. Yay! There’s a lot of crappy to what is going on at work but I am looking forward to…

    Happy Birthday Sims

    When I did my birthday blog stuff last month, I had considered doing a post just about Sims stuff… but decided I didn’t have enough content and just folded some of it into the “weird stuff” post. But then today I found out the Sims turned 18 on Feb 4! So what the heck, I thought I’d go ahead and…

    A Non-Birthday Blog Post

    It’s been a bit since I did a regular post! I’ve been concentrating on getting the birthday blog posts up and going. So let me pick up since the last post. Chase and I split an amazon gift card from Christmas and I got this: Oh yes. It’s good. And we got a lion hat for Luna. She hates it.…

    Happy New Year!

    GUESS WHAT! My blog is 20 years old now. It’s in college. My earliest blog posts were late 97/early 98 and the oldest post I was able to track down to reupload was from January 8, 1998. I think next week I will do a big post about it for its birthday! So anyway, this weekend was rather lazy. Mostly…

    Sims Pets and Star Wars stuff

    Ok so Chase got me Sims 4: Pets for for Christmas! He surprised me with it early, and then since they were on for 50% on Origin, I went ahead and got Get to Work, too. So now I have all of the Sims 4 expansions. Fun. So I wanted to make a new family so I could make pets…

    Meow Lover (A Sims Story)

    Those of you who don’t like stories about my stupid Sims games, abandon ship now! So I started my game with a young man named Meow Lover. Obviously Meow Lover loves cats – but he doesn’t have one because I don’t have the Pets expansion yet. Instead, he expresses his appreciation for cats through his job in social media –…

    it’s a sims post with no pictures

    I have a Sims 4 story for you guys. But I forgot to send myself the screencaps so I’ll have to add them in later. (EDIT: Now with pictures!) DISNEY PRINCESS SURVIVOR So I like to play “Survivor” games where I just put a bunch of characters in an empty lot and see what happens. This one happened to be…

    it’s almost time

    It’s dcon time. Well almost. Uuuuugh I still have to get through a day and a half of work. I just wanna GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO seeing everybody already on the road or already there is driving me crazy. I’ve got everything packed and ready to go, except the headdress since I’m still hand-sewing on it… I’ve got a space left for it…

    a gigantic post

    Warning you now, I have a ton of photos today. Going to start with probably the least interesting thing. Sims screencaps. And they’re not even screencaps. I literally just took photos of my monitor, because I’m lazy. It never fails that anytime I’m in the final crunch of finishing stuff before a deadline, my brain is like, “Ok, let’s play…

    Dolores, Kuwait, and the Sims

    It’s a super random post today. First up, I’ve already talked about Carrie Fisher’s passing both on FB and instagram so I’m not going to do it here. I don’t want to talk about it no mo. In happier news we booked our hotel for Celebration. We are going to do 3 days at Disney, 1 at Universal, and 1…

    LOL

    Who the heck posted my stupid Sims 4 Pitstain Family story on facebook??? I’m cracking up. Conclusion to their story was I got bored once they got in the big house and stopped playing again. The End. LOL

    The Pitstains

    So, I’m trying to play Sims 4 again. I’ve had it for a while, and I just have not been able to get into it at all. I play for like, 10 minutes and then turn it off. (I feel like I ought to just uninstall it and put Sims 3 back on my computer.) But I really felt like…

    Sims 4 Thoughts

    So I said I wasn’t going to buy it. But then I bought it. I had read about how “downgraded” Sims 4 was going to be – and still being very much into the Sims 3, I figured, why waste my time? It actually kinda sounded awful. But then I read a review that said that yes, the world is…
