-->Obtain Maskerade, the next book in the Discworld series that I need to read
-->Obtain the 25th Anniversary BTTF minimate set (I'm assuming they're in Newbury, anyway)
-->Get a
eurekasims and
revison_doc update up
-->Get that still-unprompted Drabbles88 up
-->Reinstall "American McGee's Alice"
Your EurekaSims update! The Joneses have had their baby! It's a boy, named Ernest. And to my delight, he's not a freak baby with extra faces. I've seen that happen with custom skins before on the Sims 2 community here.
-RPD: What do you think he'll look like when he's older?-
Hopefully better than Biff. Now all I need to do is get some Elixir of Life into Allison so she doesn't transition to elder while he's a toddler or something. (And maybe so I can get him a little brother or sister. ;))
As for the rest of the day -- it's the first day of spring, and we started out the day with FREAKING SNOW. I'm serious. SNOW. No accumulation, but still! And we're supposed to get more snow Wednesday night! *wishes she could punch the weather*
-Muses: *seem to share her feelings*-
-VuM: We're all just as sick of it as you are. Bring on spring!-
-HD: Hear hear!-
-D: At least it looks like you'll--
Don't finish it, you'll bring the crap early.
Not much else to report on, though. Split a Subway footlong with Dad for lunch -- Oven Roasted Chicken Breast. The girl doing the sandwich got so into putting on the extras she nearly forgot to put on the meat. *facepalm* Seriously. . . . Otherwise, worked out, wandered the web, got some random trivia into the Secundus Notes document --
-TTV: Pardon?-
Today's
charloft prompt was share a tip on writing you've picked up. My tip was have all your information on your characters organized. Shortly afterward, I decided to take my own advice and scoured
8butterflyboy8's old entries for random facts I might have dropped and would need to refer back to. You'll never know when you need them, and I know for a fact I have a nasty habit of contradicting myself.
-M2: Really that bad?-
When doing my Family Trees thing, I discovered I'd given Biff two different mothers (one in the timeline, one in the bios).
-M2: . . . Okay, yeah, that's pretty bad.-
-TD: Could always claim different universes?-
Different first AND maiden names. I've decided to combine the two, mostly because one of them had a rather overused last name for me. Anyway, I'm not letting that same shit happen in the Secundus-verse. Butterfly Boy WILL be my organized character!
-MHG: Now you've piqued my curiosity -- any interesting facts you would care to share?-
Well, he and his family moved into that big old house when he was seven, and he got lost in it shortly thereafter.
-TTV: Oh, I remember that. Did he also get locked in the attic briefly?-
Yup!
-WRM: Anything else?-
He loves singing Tesla coils, and Mayhew convinced him to try both tobacco and alcohol at least once. Neither experiment went well.
-M: You remember those, Tie-Twister?-
-TTV: *blushing* Yes -- I practically choked on that pipe. And the ale. . .well, the hangover wasn't fun. And apparently I'm a -- chatty drunk.-
This actually comes up in a 25 Foods -- which, you know what? I'm gonna post. I managed to update before 11:59 tonight, so what the hell.
( Prompt 15: Wine )
Okay, this is turning into the most rambly entry I've had in a while. I think I'm gonna go gather up info on the American McGee's Alice casebook and see if I can make a rough, game-appropriate timeline. And maybe find out just how old she's supposed to be. I've always had her at 18 post-game, but who knows?
-RPD: You're not changing anything in
save_us_alice, are you? Because I think she'd like to be informed if that's the case.-
No, no -- the most she'll be getting are those skittering teapots and maybe the new weapons. Her world's way too tangled up with Corpse Bride and too advanced to make me think of adding anything more. This is just because it's bugging me. And I like making lists and timelines.
-VM: You're weird, you know that?-
I know. And you'd think I'd be more organized if I like doing this crap so much!
-DW: Well, at least you're making the effort with Butterfly Boy.-
*nodnod* Hopefully he won't be embarrassed by that.
-MF: I think he's a little embarrassed by every bit of attention he gets.-
-TTV: Maybe I should talk to him, let him know it's okay to be the favorite. . . .-
Would you? Maybe he'll understand if it comes from another him.
