Sorry if I’m not around much—I’ve had a case of bad luck recently. First the transmission went out in my car, so I bought one (( my step-dad said he’d look at my old car and see if he can fix it, but to get another car anyway )) so I could get to work and not have to rely on my coworkers. Now my computer’s on the fritz. I’m trying to fix it myself. I think it’s either stuck on an update or there might be a virus on it as my antivirus didn’t update automatically like it usually does. My computer is freezing just being on the desktop part. :( When I get home today, I’m going to try a few more things to get it fixed. Pray it works and gets fixed! I miss my computer, Sims, writing, and my friends!

So it looks like my computer’s harddrive is either not working—or I messed up something inside my tower when I was trying to fix it.

As of this moment, Sims is a no go—but I’ll still like stuff… I just can’t download anything, unless I use my mom’s computer and stick it on a USB for the future.

THANKFULLY, I did save a bunch of my stuff; including saves. However they weren’t the latest, but I do have them. I just wish I would’ve saved the most recent stuff. :/

Okay, so... I will either 1). be getting a new computer and upgrading it to be a REALLY good gaming computer (( and also be able to add TS2 back onto it! )) or 2). see what can done with my current computer and see if I can go ahead and upgrade that. I have to wait until my step-dad checks it out to see what would be the best approach. :/ That won't be until July. But I'm using my mom's computer until then. I've been playing Nancy Drew (( I added a couple of games on her computer, because my coworker said she bought one and I figure, "Hey! We could 'play' together and help each other out!", but... that was a bit of a bust )), Sims 4 on the XBox--but will now switch back to my Lego games, and Hogwarts Legacy on Switch. ...yeah. Because of using my mom's computer, I just decided to make a USB of all the downloads that've come out and save them for my new game. Also got my new car insurance bill and nearly screamed. x__x In other words..... looks like I'm going to have to wait to play mini-golf with my guy friend (( and my coworker on another occasion )) until, maybe, October. >__>; So much for my fun summer vacay starting Sunday. ;__; My guy friend basically told me, "You just can win, can you?" Gee, thanks for that. XP ...he's a guy, what do you expect?

hey simmers reblog this and tell me what's your main sims game AND what's your go-to non-sims comfort game? for example i'm a ts2 simmer but my absolute comfort game is batman: arkham asylum.

TS2 is my main sims game. And I'm not sure I have a comfort game.

Comfort is rereading a fanfiction that I love (if I'm not reading fic or searching for my next fic to read I feel lost, lol. I absolutely always have an AO3 tab open.) Comfort is crocheting or knitting. Watching repetitive, calming videos like content from Girl with the Dogs 2 is comforting.

If it needs to be a game, I like watching Gopher play Skyrim or Fallout though it's been a while since I've done that.

Sims 3 is my main sims game, but I do play the others, I'm just terrible at posting gameplay pictures.

I have a few comfort games I'll play off and on. Old School Runescape is one of my main ones as I have so much nostalgia for it, and it genuinely still holds up! Depending on what you decide to do, it can be very relaxing! It's one of the only games I like almost as much as the Sims series.

TS3 is my main game, but non-Sims comfort game? SO many choices, but I'm going to pick.... either one of my Lego games for X-Box or Nancy Drew for the PC. Specifically Crystal Skull, because it's my favourite, and it rains in the game---comforting sounds!

LOST CC REUPLOADED: While digging around some of my older CC that I downloaded, trying to find "lost" CC from other package files.... what did my eyes behold but Lyrea's/Ptylo's TSM Tattoo conversion. A piece of CC that NO ONE can seem to find. Myself included, because I honestly thought I had it on a DVD I burned (( CD-drive isn't working )) and wasn't able to get to it. WELL, here is that piece of CC. TSM Tattoo NOT MY CC--I take no credit for this; I just reuploaded it. It belongs to Lyrea/Ptylo. Enjoy!!

Favourite Sims 3 Lighting Mods

Just the lighting mods themselves; not anything else that enhances the weather, the indoor lights, clouds, moons, suns, etc. And note: I use these one at a time, not all of them at once. ...although I suppose I COULD for custom worlds. But I don't. Because I am lazy. And get bored easily. XD This is why it takes me so long to convert anything and upload it for you guys. Brntwaffles { ALL. We're just going to get this out right now--all of the lighting mods on this Tumblr I have. Why? Why not. Because they are great--unique! } @amberpuggle { Tropical Aurora + Topical Aurora v.2 } California Day @nilxis { Uranesia+, Uranesia, Hylewood, Mediterranean Day } @potato-ballad-sims { Clear and Bright } The Blue Dream @niobecremisi { all } @auroraeternal { edits } Soggy Bottom Spooky Sky I don't know why no one makes lighting mods anymore. :/

And we're back to the AU Preggo Pirate save--here's The Captain with a new formalwear dress. I decided to try to get her all new clothing while she's pregnant, because I found a mod where she's pregnant for 15 days, so I can get a little more use out of the clothing. Also the clothing the game gave her was awful. XD For her formalwear, I changed her hair style and her makeup just slightly. She is SO pretty here!

Testing out energy drinks with my, surprisingly, self-Sim. She doesn't actually get a lot of use in my game, so... Also the fact that she died in my friend's game...... she kind of deserves a bit more than that. XD Anyway, started off with cherry, as that's my favourite flavour. Since the guy's trait is "unlucky", I'll have him try out the mystery flavours, so I don't die again, lol. So far, so good though! Unsure if it's just my game however, but the can didn't show up in my inventory.

ONCE. * @kurasoberina [ all + primer is my default ] * Moonskin93 [ gods of elements [all], guardian of elements, KEM, KEM pale, beast inside, furry and proud, blood drinkers, Claire de lune, Kristabella, latte, Mona, Morbido, moonlight blood, nestea, Panna, Rutina, Sayuri, spotted ] * Navetsea [ busty, hairy v3, hairy v4, bad, freckled, real, hot, sexy, glam ] * @nectar-cellar [ gardenia, santal, neroli ] * @brntwaffle [ blueberry pie zombie, cloud parade, feather and pearls, freckled nectar, nectar, polyester bride, wild blue ] * @horusmenhosetix [ blue cherry pie, buddleia, shooting stars [all], Idola ] * @niobecremisi [ mermaid, natural, sea, stardust dragon, vampire, earth, freckles ] * @taty86 [ leaves, avatar, deer, ghost, dandelion, darklight, mermaid ] * @noodlesims [ hello bubble freckles, hello bubble alien, apple cider vinegar, apple cider vinegar v.2 genensims, paper heart freckles, catch me if you can freckles ] * @pyxiidis [ innocent bones, cinder and smoke, run boy run [ as a zombie default ] ] * Firefly * @sim-it-up [ alien, plant ] * Full Of Stars * @cozygirlsimmer [ ciao bella ] * Freysims [ wolfie ] * Galactic Sandstorm * @imamiii [ tabula ] * @amuhav [ curvy blue, chaos, game+, freckle r, mix, natural+tan, realistic, RPG, tan, freckledfrou ] * Simmerstore [ Nymph ] * Ladyfrontbum [ burnt, stitched, naughty, silk, velvet ] Ramps: & Everything Nice | Snowberry | Jazzberry | Scattered Genes | Fantasy | Fawkes | Dessert Trolley | Harmonium | Berry Pastel | Berry V2 | Rainbow & Alien | Pastel | Faerieland Berry * There are many, many, MANY more skintones I've downloaded and use in-game that I randomly find on CC Finds blogs, so this isn't considered a completed list by any means. I have quite a lot of tattooed/vitiligo/freckled skintones, for instance--and some I made for my own Sims (( aka, characters )).
