Aw yeah. I love it when I -finally- have something to post, and then I hear back from like one person. Just kidding: two.
And there was that time a few months ago where I wrote 100 pages of Crystal Palace 4 and nobody seemed to know except my mom, because I made her sit and listen to me read it. And while I read it, she'd stare off in space, and I'd go "Mom, you weren't laughing at all," and she'd go "I was just thinking about how good it is. Really."
That is my writing life, folks. If I'M too busy to write, that's when everyone's wondering if I'll update, but if I'm updating, everyone's too busy to read. lol IRONY, DARLINGS. SO MUCH OF IT.
Anyway, you can probably tell that this isn't a serious post. I just thought I would mention that I've been playing the SIMS 2 with serious enthusiasm for the past couple weeks. I started a house for me and Jenna to hang with our menz, I made freaking Greg Proops and Colin Mochrie to boot (they look pretty good), and of course I made Nosferatu and He's There houses. I don't have good meshes and have had a little trouble learning to customize in Sims 2, but I've been making do and enjoying it anyway. Hutter and Ellen had a baby named Greta. x3 So cute: It's what Ellen has always wanted.
Anyway, the HT house was supposed to get me in the mood, but some funny things happened. For one, Lily's boyfriend is a vampire.
I'll tell you how that happened. I was hooking up Lily and Erik even though it was very difficult because I deprived him of any "nice" ticks while designing his personality. Even when they were clearly in love with each other, he would randomly slap her or they'd get into a brawl just because they started off on a bad foot and hadn't sealed the deal yet. I enjoyed the challenge, at first, but then I made them go to a Gothic night club and saw an even bigger challenge: The Downtown expansion pack has vampires.
I honestly didn't know this. Lily started talking to one and hit on him and Erik got majorly pissed, so they were broken up, and then the vampire called her at home later. And I was like "awwwwsheeet, I'm so hooking her up with that vampire." This was not easy. I couldn't control any of his actions, he didn't take kindly to any type of interaction except jokes (and dirty jokes), and if you made one mistake it brought down their relationship all the points that had taken a few days to reach, and he'd just go Bleh! and stalk away with his arm covering his teeth. I'd be lucky to raise their relationship level 5-10pts a day, or should I say, night. You can't call vampires or invite them over unless it's dark out, and the same one doesn't always show up at the night club, even though I'd bust Lily's ass getting here there at midnight all the time. But I. Was. Determined, especially after how difficult "Count Waylon Tsukinovsi-whatever" was being, to make him Lily's bitch. And then once they were making out and Woohooing all over the place it still took a while to convince him to move in. I think I persuaded him when I bought a coffin - it's all about making a vampire feel secure.
Since then, he's become my character and I have to worry about him all the time. The house has no basement and little room to expand, so he sleeps in a room with a stereo and piano, both of which Mariam, Paulina, Erik, and Lily all looove to use throughout the day. They wake him up and he doesn't even know what's good for him anymore. He'll go out and about even thought his bars are dropping dramatically, and even walk in front of windows into sunlight.
It's fun, though. XD Through him, I converted Nosey-bosey, so now he's a real vampire who creeps around, and- oh, it's just great. I'll share some stuff from that house later.
Meanwhile, Erik and Lily still do this:
