Stupid Sims! Why do you have to be so bloody addictive?!

I mean really?!

I've had Tales of the World since Saturday, and I still haven't started it yet, cause every time I grab my PSP I start thinking...I should work on my Sims, what with their stupid pets suddenly not liking them ^_~

*sigh*

Not like any of this is a real problem ^_~ I'm occupying my time, and I always have a new game to fall back on.

And I found out a couple of days ago that mom's going to get me Jeanne D Arc It looks like it's a tactical game like Final Fantasy Tactics. What I always wonder about is how it will compare to Tactics, because Tactics really hit on perfection, and so I've played and enjoyed a bunch of tactical games, but none so far has compared to Tactics.

So now I'm going back to Sims *shakes fist* you shouldn't be so addictive! Its just not right! ^_~

Why the hell do my stupid pets suddenly stop liking me?!

I go through all the trouble of fulfilling their wants becoming best friends with them...and then all of a sudden all the points goes away, or worse still I end up in the negatives...

My brother thinks its a matter of keeping me busy, but this just doesn't seem right. Even the random characters that I make friends with don't drop all the points like this, they go down slowly giving me a chance to build it back up.

Very furstrating, yubsie i_paint_the_sky do you have any idea what's happening?

Also I now have my copy of Tales of the World: Radiant Mythology ^_^ haven't started it yet...am enjoying the fact that I have it...might seem strange, but then I've never denied being strange ^_~

Will probably end up starting it later today, it has a very thick rule book feenix I'm so lazy ^_~ I'm not even going to read it. If you were sitting in my house right now I'd just be bugging you about what all to do ^_~

The Is'nah family has moved into a 2 bedroom house, I've thought about getting another pet but just haven't found one at the pet store that I like yet. Been working up their goals...but Ahrum has a goal I'm not sure I can meet I have to beat a chicken at checkers...

So addicted to the game...only problem is I often forget to save, and yesterday I lost a lot of work. When I went to move from my bachelor home to the 1 bedroom house I realised I'd lost some of the items I'd bought. So when I went from 1 to 2, I made sure to sell off the items in the house that I'd just be getting more of in my new place. But it still wasn't enough I lost my wardrobe which just happens to be the one thing I can't buy a second of...so I had to reset.

I've been saving more today...got to keep in the habit.

hmmm Vailyn was abducted by Aliens!!!...I was trying to build up her logic with a telescope. In a side note I'm definitely getting a better understanding of the game, and how to progress my Sims. So yeah aliens...just what's going to happen now?

I really need to get a bigger house, had to inventory a lot of my stuff to make room for the items I need to promote my character's in their jobs.

Seriously though this game is way to addictive ^_~

But one the bright side it does give me something to do when writing isn't playing fair. And at the moment I know the scene, I'm pretty sure I know how I want it all to play out...but when I go to look at the story by thoughts scatter. Also concerned about writing this scene just right. After a buildup in the chapter before I want it to meet expectations.

So unfortunatley you might have to deal with the cliffy a little longer [Iz sorry]

PS I was aware that there were aliens in the game ^_^

So my Sims house caught fire twice...and this while I was talking with neekabe *laughs* I know why it happened there may be too much stuff in my small house, I can fix that. But I ended up having to shut it off so I could restart from my last save because too much damage had been done in the second fire.

In other news Snowball is the greatest kitty. So easy to please, so loving of her people ^_^ *huggles* Snowball! It was definitely the right move to make selling Lex...I never really considered the fact that a pet might be incompatible with the people. I'm not even sure that's what it was but it does make a little sense, they give the characters personalities and the animals.

In either case looking forward to more play tomorrow, and hopefully some writing. Today every time I looked at Lift me Up my thoughts just scattered...really rather frustrating actually. But hopefully tomorrow will be better *fingers crossed* I really honestly don't want to leave all of you waiting with this cliffhanger for too long if I can help it [whoo, was that a really roundabout crazy sentence? *shrugs*]

At least I'm ending today on a slightly up note

Well Lex is no more!!!

I don't now what was up with this dog but nothing I did was right, he was upset all the time and didn't like either Vailyn or Ahrum. So I finally got fedup! and sold his sorry ass!

I now have a kitty, her name is Snowball ^_~ [what Josh wants Josh gets] ^_~

This kitty too seemed to have a thing with feng shui...but I rather enjoy rearranging the furniture. So Snowball is getting on great with both my Sims w00t

But if she should start causing problems....*shakes fist*

^_~

PS NO DOGS!!!!

It would seem my dog Lex has a serious case of feng shui as it took me bloody forever to figure out where I could actually put his bed so he'd sleep on it, instead of tossing and turning on the floor while moaning dreams of a bed *shakes fist*

But all is straightened out now...found a cheat for Sims 2 Pet, on GameFAQ...but no matter how I tried it or how many times nothing happened. I'm not even sure what was supposed to happen. But now that I have a few of my frustrations sorted out I can continue on slowly building up my money so I can move my Sims' Ahrum and Vailyn Is'nah [couldn't think of a last name ^_~] into a bigger house!

And I've at least got chapter 9 for Lift me Up started, which is the hardest part, so *fingers crossed* I'll get some more written tomorrow!

My Sims' are no longer living in sin ^_~ I got their relationship up high enough for Ahrum to ask Vailyn to marry him. And of course she said yes, so now they're a couple trying to save enough money to move into a bigger house which I've unlocked...but I really think it's going to take as long as in real life ^_~

What makes this game so fun? I'm really? you're just moving people around during their average day, sending them off to work, talking to friends...maybe it's the power aspect of it? Their lives are totally in your control! Mwahahahahah

Oh did I mention despite setting him to genius status, it would appear as though I have the dumbest dog alive...I buy him a dog bed and he ends up laying on the floor dreaming of a dog bed....I just want to kick...but there's no option for that ^_~

I finally managed to pull myself away from the game, I'm going to see if I can't get even a little writing done today.

Well I was enjoying my new game >_<

And then there was some sort of glich and Dean couldn't move..I could still doing things in the game like renovate his house but neither he nor kyo could move ARRRG!!!

I hate it when stuff like that happens takes all the enjoyment right out of the game! Now I'm going to have to start all over...not that I was very far into it but still *Shakes fist* not knowing why something happened [so I can avoid it next time really pisses me off]

Edit: Dean is dead...new character is Kiefer Stross...and he'd better not piss me off or he's done too!! ^_~

Edit the second!: What the Fuck? you greet other sims on the street let them welcome you to the neighborhood and suddenly they think they have free access to my house?! Again with the What the Fuck?!

but this time it has entirely to do with the video game I picked up.

I got Sims Pets, and so far I'm really enjoying it made my character Dean Smith [Winchester was too long ^_~] and he has a kitty named Sohma Kyo ^_^ which is great I love doing things for both of them....

But I'm confused by a lot of the symbols that come up when one sim talks to another....I feel like I'm flying blind here ^_~

But still enjoying myself
