Argh  
You know what a guy wears when he goes out to dinner? Like a nice pair of slacks, a clean shirt, and maybe a sportcoat? Why is this type of outfit impossible to find for sim males? A guy's wardrobe is not just t-shirts!!!!!

ARGH!!!!!!!

Pets? Yes or No?  
I never planned to get Pets. Sure, the werewolf thing was cool, and I like the idea of sims having pets, but it was an EP I could do without.

However.....I kinda want it now. The only obstacle was my crappy laptop. The thing is, I'm getting more RAM this week. And once I get it and run the game to see how it plays, I just may give in and get myself another EP.

So, my question is, to those who have Pets, how is it? Do you use it a lot? Do you mostly ignore it, etc. I'm just curious what you guys think. :)

Sim Blather  
I'm not in the right mood to write the next Valenzuela update, but the pics are ready to go. Hopefully tomorrow. :)

Now, I won't just leave you hanging with nothing to look at. I've been working on something else. It's almost ready. I'm hoping to get the intro post done in a few days or so. However, something really cute happened while working on it, and I can't help but share.

Damn Those Elusive Butterflies... )

Computer Update  
I think the worst is over. I went to Geek Squad and the guy said that it was probably Limewire fucking up my comp. Didn't expect that one. So, I came home, un-installed it and a few other similar programs. I just finished scanning and the comp seems to be okay.

YAY! To celebrate, I'll try to get the next Valenzuela update out by tomorrow......maybe. :)

More Computer Issues  
Once again, my lappy is being a douche. I have no idea why, but I really think it justs hates me.

I'll get on, then after about 10-15 minutes, it just freezes. I can't even get a computer scan going because that freezes too. I'm hoping that if I let it rest for the night, it'll be better in the morning. If not, I'll take it to Geek Squad on Thursday. I'm hoping they don't have to wipe it again, but it they do, I'm not completely upset. I do have some backups.

The only worry is my Valenzuela hood. I haven't backed that one up in at least a month. In those 15 minutes, I'm uploading to mediafire what I can. It may take me all day, since I have to manually restart it every time, but I'll do what I have to in order to save my files.

I'm a little scared about it, but I'm trying to be optimistic about it. Thankfully, I do have the house computer to use, so I'm not completely cut off. I'll update ya'll when I know more. :)

InTeen + Same-Sex Marriage?  
In the comments of one of my Valenzuela updates, [info]simantics asked me about the same sex marriage hack. Apparently, it wasn't working in her game. The only hack that seemed like it might be messing with the hack was Inteen. So, she asked me to see what happened in my game.

It didn't work it my game either. To be honest, no, I didn't take out Inteen to check the hack worked without Inteen. But, it's the only massive hack, save for ACR, that could possibly mess with it. Ugh.

So, I figured maybe one of you guys may have Inteen and a same-sex marriage hack that worked. Or, maybe confirm that the two don't work together. I like have Inteen in my game, but I'd also love to skip the whole "Union" over marriage poo.

Help, please?

(I can only bribe you with the promise of a Valenzuela update sometime tomorrow :D)

Eye Defaults  
Inspired by a recent post in [info]thesims2 by my good friend [info]simantics, I decided to mess around with Sim Pe, and try to make my own default eyes.

I really love this set of eyes of [info]pooklet, who credits [info]simrenity as well. However, I wanted some of the custom eyes as my defaults over the ones she chose. I've always tried to stay away from messing with Sim Pe, cuz I'm pretty sure I'll mess up my game, but this tutorial make it look easy enough, so I tried it.

Would you like to see how it turned out?

Assassin: Volume One Part Four  
It's been like 3 months since I've touched this story, but I have a good reason! For half that time I didn't have access to the computer, the other half............I just wasn't motivated okay! I've decided to have smaller chapters rather than the long epic ones I had originally planned. That way, I won't get discouraged when working on each.

I higly suggest reading the previous chapters, since it's 100% likely you forgot what the hell was going on. I know I did! :P
