Tiny update and a some small changes.
Since the battle ended and I had some time to think, I've been wondering where a few of my items went. For example, I remembered having one of those floppy white cats. I finally remembered the name and password of my girl account, so I signed on and poked around. I sent everything to this account as a gift, but there was no floppy cat. I decided I must have sold it or given it to someone. A few minutes ago, I checked out my house to see if my furniture is still there. It is. So is my floppy cat. And an anti-Gambino sign. And a Gambino pin. I also have the anti-Von Helson sign and the two halves of the V pin in my inventory. I wish I could remove the cat. Can I? I'm going to play around with this thing until I've done it or I'm sure I can't. I read a few of my old journal entries. Terribly outdated, obviously. I now have six cats. Bastet, Menchi, Sam, Zoe, Oreo, and Loki. Ah ha! Figured out the cat problem. Nevermind, all is well. Now that I've got it back, I think I want it in my house after all. It's either that or on my head. Maybe if I changed my hair, I wouldn't mind a cat on my head. I'll think about it. For now, it goes back in the house. Miao miao. I still play the Sims 2 a lot, but on a different computer. All the sims mentioned previously in this journal still exist on a backup disk somewhere. My new custom neighborhood is Legacy Valley. I have thirteen core families and eight or nine houses on Immortal's Lane. The idea is that the core families age, while those on Immortal's Lane, including my simself, don't. Many of the current immortals will probably be married into core families later. I'm planning to kill off and marry in all Maxis made playables from Bluewater and Sim State. Arjun Alioto has two top level businesses and three more community lots just waiting to be developed. I don't need the Bluewater playables. I just need to remember who has flower and toymaking badges. I use a lot of mods from MATY and TwoJeffs. I haven't gotten Bon Voyage yet. I was waiting for my favorite mods to be updated and a decent patch to be released. I don't know if a good patch will ever come along, but I think the mods are mostly ready now. ACR is still in testing. I'll use it anyway. I'm just lazy. The thought of going through all my mods and finding the updates, and backing up everything, it's all just so tiring. And I'm still awake at nearly three in the morning. Why? Really, I need to force myself to go to sleep at a decent time. I made a family tree for my sims at Tribalpages. It's the website I put in my profile thingy. The Tribalpages family tree page has a link to my Flickr account,which has some pictures of my sims. And my cats. And my fountain pens. I'm hungry, and sleepy. It would be silly to eat now. I should go to sleep. I like all these Egyptian items, but I'd like some Roman things as well. And Greek. I'd like to learn Latin. I'm thinking of changing my Gaia name to Gaius Cruoris. It really annoys me how much people say "sorry" lately. Just today on Threadless I saw this comment: "Sorry...not a big fan of beastiality." Why is that person sorry? That they're not a big fan of beastiality? That the shirt implies beastiality? That they don't like the shirt? Are they really, truely sorry about any of those things? Are those things to be sorry for? More commonly, I see things like "Sorry, I don't like this," or "I wouldn't wear this, sorry." Are they really sorry? Personally, I only say I'm sorry if I'm actually sorry about something. I try not to do anything I'll be sorry for, so I almost never say it. At most, I may say, "I apologize." Even my mother is doing this now. If the shops started selling togas, I would probably change my kilt for that. I almost bought an Egyptian loincloth. I really might change to Gaius Cruoris. I like it. Hmm.
