If we talkin about ugly sims we got talk about the sims 3 twinbrook cause what was going on there 😭 the bayless family still haunts me and tay bayless looks British ngl
I never got into Sims 3, so I don't know any of the townies/worlds that don't relate to premades from the earlier games. Let me look them up! Gimme one sec...
... Oh 😬. Oh my. Well that's ummm a choice! But let me just read their wiki description real qui-
OH?! What the fuck?!
The absolute crime of excessive camo... the incestual implications...I am... lmfao I am just... WOW! There really are just no words. I feel like their description is a wild ride from beginning to end.
I added a Graphic with up-close pics of the family below for those who, much like myself, might have been blissfully unaware of this monstrosity of a family's existence before this cursed day.
Skeet and Gwayne... that's ummmm another choice! I have never heard the name Gwayne in my life and have no idea where they pulled that from! You're right about Tay though, he does look British! He's very out of place with his little sweater vest: a little sickly Victorian boy in the midst of what looks to be a trailer park family.
But listen... I have to admit that I hate the way all the sims in TS3 look, so I'm not super impartial. The animation just weirded me out for some unknown reason, but I've thought of giving it another chance in recent years as it is so beloved on here. My younger sister, however, loves The Sims 3 - I need to ask her how she felt about this family as they are indeed especially rough, you're right!!!
All that being said... I'm not gonna lie I'd play this family and have a grand old time. This kind of wackity-tackity cuckoo banana shit is right up my alley. Now they're on my townie makeover list! 😂
#I feel both blessed and cursed to have learned about this family today... so thank you friend!#atfs ask#forbiddenwhims#lore anon#The Bayless Family#Skeet Bayless#Gwayne Bayless#Chase Bayless#Tay Bayless#ts3

Еще один небольшой мэйковер. Чейс Бэйлесс Девочка подросток из Твинбрука. Дочь Скита и Гвейн Бэйлесс. Мне не нравятся ее наряды, как то все хаотично и неподходяще получилось. Скорее всего я ее переодену снова. Мне кажется она похожа на свою маму:) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Another small makeover. Chase Bayless Teenage girl from Twinbrook. Daughter of Skeet and Gwaine Bayless. I don’t like her outfits, everything looks chaotic and inappropriate. Most likely I will change it again. I think she looks like her mother :)

“Jack Edwards doesn’t take his job seriously!”
Have y’all seen Shaq and Chuck on Inside the NBA? Shaq getting chased by another commentator and getting LAUNCHED into a Christmas Tree? Or Chuck (seriously) saying he wants to murder Skip Bayless because they’ve had beef for DECADES?
#and y’know what? it’s the funniest shit on tv#if they can do their jobs and still be insane? keep them on air#i could literally watch shaq and chuck videos all day#q(ueue)b1

The Athletic Introduces New NFL Podcast "Scoop City"
NFL training camps are about to open as much of the U.S. swelters in oppressive heat. It's a rite of passage for football fans. We are treated to images of 350-pound men passing out from the heat, head coaches dousing fans with platitudes about their optimism for the upcoming season, and contract holdouts.
I tried to count the number of podcasts I could find specifically about NFL football, and I lost count after 200.
Say hello to # 201, or #2001. The Athletic has released a new NFL podcast called Scoop City. I am not sure why the name included the concept of a news scoop, an older media concept that has lost meaning in today's hyperkinetic social media firestorm.
Here's what The Athletic says: "The Athletic’s senior NFL insider Dianna Russini and longtime NFL quarterback Chase Daniel, Scoop City, a new podcast from The Athletic, takes listeners inside the NFL framework, explaining not just what’s happening, but how and why too."
That is the description of almost every other NFL podcast. In fairness, The Athletic does produce thoughtful and unique coverage in print, on audio or video.
The Athletic continues: "Twice a week, Dianna and Chase dish out the latest buzz from on and off the field, going beyond stats, scores and game day chatter to bring fans unparalleled insight into the stories captivating the league. Each show will be packed with information about the NFL delivered via fun, free-wheeling conversation." Question: When are these sports podcast conversations ever not fun or free-wheeling? I know -- when Stephen A. Smith, Skip Bayless or Colin Cowherd are speaking. Let the bloviating commence.
“In my 15 years of covering the greatest sport, I’ve learned the best fans like being ‘in the know,’” Dianna said. “We want to give listeners an even bigger connection to their favorite teams and players. The conversations will be centered around our favorite sport, but we promise you, we never take ourselves too seriously.”
“I’m so excited to dive into the world of the NFL like you’ve never heard and seen before. There are so many things that go on behind the scenes in the league that so many people don’t understand and Dianna and I can’t wait to share it all,” Chase said. In the show’s debut episode, Dianna Russini and Chase Daniel share what they’re hearing about the quarterback room in Pittsburgh, the hype building in Houston, and the drama that always seems to be following the New York Jets. They also sit down for an exclusive interview with Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid about the quest for a three-peat, Patrick Mahomes, and all the attention Taylor Swift has brought to the team. Chase explains how his perspective on the fight over an 18-game schedule landed him in an online beef.
Let it never be said that podcast listeners do not have multiple options for hearing about the NFL. My favorite NFL podcast is still the Ross Tucker Football Podcast.
I listened to the first episode of Scoop City and admit it was excellent. So, if you're looking for a new favorite NFL podcast, try Scoop City.

Sims 3 - Missing Mouthwash
Meanwhile Yasmin worked on a case she had gotten the night before.
When she talked to Tay Bayless he pointed the finger at his sister Chase.
Yasmin found Chase at the gym, and after a small bribe she confessed to taking the mouthwash.
Yasmin had a quick lunch then returned the mouthwash to Tay.
She also gained enough job experience for a promotion.
First a toothbrush, and now mouthwash. The cases in this town sure were weird.

NFL Week 3
This wideout shit is getting out of control. This week we had 15 wideouts that reached the century mark. We also have some big names making their way to the blog this season. Without further ado…
Keenan Allen is a man amongst boys. Right now Allen makes the game look really easy. The chargers have used Allen in the slot more than I’ve ever seen. And it’s definitely paying off. Allen caught 18 balls for 215 yards with zero scores. And now that counterpart Mike Williams is injured, I expect Allen to continue putting the weight on his back and carrying the team.
Davante Adams takes home the WOW (wideout of the week) award. It’s refreshing to see Adams have the type of performance he’s capable of having each week. Davante finished his night with 13 catches for 172 yards and 2 touchdowns. Adams dominated all over the field to make his first appearance of the year.
Tyreek Hill is amazzzing!!! Hill cannot be guarded 1on 1. Agains the Denver Broncos Hill was up to his usual shenanigans. Hill caught 9 passes for 157 yards and 1 tub. Hill continues to obliterate angles. And although he left Patrick Mahomes 2 seasons ago, Hill’s production has steadily increased and I believe if not Justin Jefferson, Tyreek is another wideout who can eclipse the daunting 2000 yards in a season.
Mama…Their goes that man! Justin Jefferson is a beautiful thing to watch. I love the way he’s playing right now. And I’m even more impressed by his run after catch. He’s dominating the field in every aspect of the game. Against the Los Angeles Chargers Mr. Jefferson caught 7 passes for 159 yards and 1 touchdown.
Another name I have never heard of had himself quite the performance. Nathaniel “Tank” Dell absolutely destroyed defenders on his way to a rookie break out performance. Catching 5 balls for a whopping 145 yards and 1 touchdown. Dell most definitely caught my eye and I’m glad the kid had his first 100-yard game in the NFL.
Adam Thielen is a name I have not heard called in at least two years. Glad the kid is still able to put up big numbers making his first appearance on the wideouts4life blog. That boy Adam pulled his old bag of tricks out on his way to an 11-catch, 145-yard, 1 touchdown performance.
Ja’Marr Chase Your Dreams has not started the year like he would like. As he put it after the game against the Rams, “I’m always fucking open.” Sounds like a true wideout. I remember in college saying the same shit every play to never get the ball thrown my way. Chase caught 12 balls for 141 yards with zero scores. I’m hopeful Joe Burrow and the Cincinnati Bengals play callers get this young lion the ball. Wideout fans like to see the wideouts ball.
AJ Brown is a dog. I know when watching tape of Mr. Brown, he’s going to give everything he has to give. After not contributing to the Eagles as he would have liked too. AJ Brown caught 9 passes for 131 yards. Brown did not score but every yard he earned helped the eagles beat the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
No introduction is need when a name like Deebo Samuel is mentioned. And as I write this blog, looking at the names above, I’m ecstatic because for the next decade I will get the chance to witness some of the greatest wideouts to ever play the game. You have to be a man to play for the San Francisco 49ers. They run so many fucking slants, it’s ridiculous. Deebo scored on a beautiful go-route thrown by Brock Purdy ending his night with 6 catches for 129 yards.
It sucks that on a great day that Mike Williams was having. His knee got twisted in an awkward position leading to the young man tearing his ACL. Williams is out for the season. But prior to the injury Williams caught 7 passes for 121 yards and scored on trick play from fellow wideout Keenan Allen.
Amari Cooper is like fine wine. He just keeps getting better with age. I still standby the point Skip Bayless and Shannon Sharpe that Cooper does turn it on and off. But maybe that isn’t a bad thing. It definitely lures defensive backs to sleep. Amari still is the best on press release and it’s not even close. Cooper almost made a guy fall on a sweet fade route he hauled in finishing his afternoon with 7 catches for 116 yards and 1 touchdown.
DK Metcalf is a physical specimen. His route running is not great. And that’s ok, Terrell Owens wasn’t a route runner but he damn sure made plays. As I watch more and more film Metcalf reminds me of the hall of fame wideout. He catches better than T.O and for sure is faster as well. Against the Panthers Metcalf caught 6 passes for 112 yards helping secure the victory for the Seahawks.
Stefon Diggs is one of my favorite wideouts to watch. One pet peeve of mines is when wideouts make a routine catch against zone coverage and get up with the shenanigans. Against the Washington Commanders Diggs caught 8 passes for 112 yards. I feel he needs to do more because there are two hogs in Justin Jefferson and Tyreek Hill battling for the NFL’s top wideout spot.
Ohio State and Alabama have put out tons of the wideouts who are really good as of the recent 5 years. One of those wideouts Chris Olave an Ohio State product just keeps on producing. Olave had a sweet one-hand catch up the right sideline that was ridiculous. Olave finished his night with 8 catches for 104 yards. For a 2nd year player, Olave checks all the boxes and I can only imagine his game will continue to get better.
Last man to reach the century mark this weekend is none other than Amon-Ra St. Brown. Against the Atlanta Falcons, St Brown was a nuisance. St. Brown hauled in 9 passes for 102 yards placing him at #5 in receiving yards.
Another week of wideouts balling out. 15 wideouts catching for at least 100-yards is a record. Im ecstatic to see if we can eclipse this feat once again during the season. A lot of writing but well worth it. Wideouts Let’s Go!

Skip Bayless gives snarky reaction to LeBron James' performance against Kings
Skip Bayless gives snarky reaction to LeBron James’ performance against Kings
LeBron James gallantly tried to carry the severely undermanned LA Lakers against the Sacramento Kings last night. He finished with a game-high 31 points to go with 11 assists and six rebounds but didn’t have enough support to lose 134-120. After the game, Skip Bayless promptly took a shot at James’ effort with a tweet: “LeBron did a nice job of stat-padding and Kareem-chasing tonight in a blowout…

Chase’s whole grade went down to the Science lab! Not the wisest choice on the teacher’s part. You can’t put kids like this in a research facility and not expect explosions, theft, or total boredom.
Chase wanted to get in on the explosions, personally, but Jeffery Castor wasn’t into that. He was into what the tour guide was saying. So she stood pretty, nodded along and looked interested in order to keep Jeffery interested...if you catch the drift. But at some point after lunch, they got brought into this huge room full of robots! Freaking robots! And all that pretending instantly became real. It left the girl thinking for days on end.
Tay had a school trip as well that week-- but he wasn’t allowed to go. Gwayne wasn’t about to throw 80 dollars at a school the boy skipped or goofed off in at every turn. His friend, Bunny, called him when it was all over. He tried to play it off like it wasn’t cool that she got to ride a horse. Whatever, horses....pft....Who cares?

Dear David...
If you’ve kept up with The Krazy Crazy Life of Kassiopeia Fullbright, you’ll know about the appearance of the Bayless family from Twinbrook. If not, then, ***minor spoiler alert!***
Davis Lamar is related to them... a.k.a. David Bayless. Arc 34, Remembering, briefly features the Bayless family. I decided to share some stills from my gameplay for fun.
Avery Bayless (14) is rather angry that the soda machine ate her simoleons. She really hoped for a refreshing drink after school.
Dear David, I really hate this blasted machine! I wish you were here to reach up with your long arms and grab the cola.
Frustrated, Avery gives up and comes home to play ball with her brother, Taye on their Bayuck swamp farm.
The days and nights kinda blend together, but every night, Taye and I play ball. It’s kinda nice. I know he wouldn’t admit it but he’s grown to be handsome while you’ve been gone... er... except for those ears!
Taye Bayless (17) tosses a baseball with his sister, Avery near the swamp. He’s taking a break from studying for exams, and he adores his kid sister.
At least I can wear my hair long to cover mine. The girls at school still make fun of me. I don’t know if I can ever show my face again there after falling flat on my pimply nose while trying to get that blasted cola!
Avery and Taye play ball in the yard near the water tower that provides fresh water for the Bayless family. Also Avery’s sporting her rainboots since the ground can be quite mushy in the swamps. Avery shares a special relationship with Taye as they both love the outdoors and are active.
But here on the farm, I can just be goofy self and laugh and play in the yard. No one’s gonna see me with all this swamp grass ‘round. Don’t feel like you gotta write back. It’s just stupid stuff here, really. Don’t even know howta end so bye, I guess. ~ Aves
Skye Bayless (16) plays the bass much like their older half-brother, Davis. They also have a flamboyant style. In game, when Skye aged up from toddler to child, they had a feminine hairstyle, and when they aged up to teen, Skye was actually wearing a dress. I decided Skye is gender fluid as the game encouraged me, preferring they/their as pronouns. Look at the pure joy on their face!
Evening hangs in sultry skies; the heat of sweetgrass swaying in the sweaty breeze. The scent of sun-soaked tea tickles my nose and tempts me away from practice. I ponder little and then I play the love song only Bayucks know and beat my foot upon the porch wood. I strum the notes you taught me b’fore and think of the soft twangs on a sweltering night that barely scratch the sky for which I’m named.
Skye shares a room with their older brother, Taye. Taye is a studious kid and is looking forward to university and getting out of the backwater swamp. Here he practicing writing his speech.
How do I start? I miss you sounds trite. I love you sounds stupid. But I do, mmkay? Uni apps are due soon and M’as breathi’n down’em my neck, but ya know...what she dont’ realize is I really wanna go and be out there in the world. And somehow I know its tough for ya’s now, but you make it seem okay... that the world aint so scary if you can face everythin’g that’s you have and still come out okay. So hang on... oh and um... when you get home... I still need help with apos’trophes. - Love, Taye (and yeah, Im cool with mushyness but dont’cha tell Ma).
Little River (5) Bayless is sad. She misses her big brother very much. She also lost her doll somewhere and fears the dog took off and buried it somewhere in the swamp.
Dear David, I miss you. I love you. My dolly is gone. I think the dog took it. I think the dog put it in the yard in the ground. I wish you was here. We could dig it up to...to...too...(it’s a big word - Chase helped me). together. ~ River
Shepherd Skeet Bayless may live in the Bayuck swamp, but he’s far from backward. True, he prefers the simple life, but he takes pride in his swamp farming skills. Here he tends to the sweetgrass his family has grown for generations and practices his sermons. After all, plants are very good listeners.
Son, I miss you. We can’t wait for you to be home. I think it would be good to spend time in the garden together. Plants have a healing nature to them. After all, the Good Lord gave us a garden to tend to give us purpose and a place. Enclosed are my notes from my latest sermon, some psalms, and a few of your favorite hymns. I’ve taken to preaching to the plants. I know it’s dumb, probably, but they listen. I hope you’ll listen and know that you just get well and get home soon, okay?
At twilight, Chase Bayless (19), all grown up, and capturing the land she calls home on the canvas. It’s a cooler evening than most, the mists of the swamp rising up to provide some low haze. She’s home on break from uni, an Education major, and she took up painting to unwind.
Dear David, I don’t want you to worry about me. Shark Racket broke my heart all those years ago and I know how angry you were. But today he brought me a cake. He dropped it off on the porch and ran away like a sissy, but I saw him through the curtains. I think he heard about your situation somehow. Townsfolk talk. The parishoners whisper among themselves on Sundays and I don’t like it. But you don’t need to worry about it. I’ll bop any of ‘em on the nose if they speak badly about you.
Ma Bayless... Gwayne, that is, has enchantress abilities. She hoped at least one of her children would inherit her supernatural genes, but alas! No matter how many kids she popped out, not one of them is “special.” She takes out her frustrations by crafting potions (legal and illegal) in the attic of the Bayless Manor.
Ma’am’s spendin’ most nights in the attic. I don’t think she’d admit it, but she feels guilty. She’s working on the perfect stress potion. She says it’s for her, but I don’t think so. I hear her mumblin’ to herself, hissing at herself, and she says your name a lot and that she’s uh... failed you. Don’t tell her I said that. She’d probably wring my neck like a spring chicken.
Avery, like her siblings, Davis and Skye, loves music. It brings a smile to her face every time she can tickle the ivories in the evenings. What southern home is complete without a family music room?
The armless statue of the goddess Veni offends Pa Bayless, but Chase brought the beauty back from her studies abroad in Sim Union. After three days of arguing, Gwayne finally convinced her husband to keep the peace and allow the lady to be on display.
Did I tell you I got to study abroad? You aren’t the only Bayless to travel now, big brother. I betcha can see my smile. I can still try and one up you, ya know? I spent some time in Championne, in the City of Lights. Oh it was beautiful! I wish you could’ve seen all the art and culture and that you could taste the scones. I’ll make you some when you return.You still like blueberries, right?
I’ve enclosed some of my silly scribblings from the trip. I hope you don’t mind. Tonight I’m painting on the porch. I can hear Skye and Avery both play different songs, and yet somehow they blend so beautifully. I think you’ve inspired them.
When she isn’t enchanting, Gwayne likes to feel the earth between her fingers. After all, an enchantress has a special relationship with nature. It’s the only time she can be “free” and doesn’t feel the pressures of motherhood and her business management career.
And Ma’am too. You know she loves you in her own way. She spends more time in the garden now than she ever did, in the section we used to call yours. She’s trying to cut back on her hours at city hall. I think she misses you. But yeah, don’t tell her I said it. This is our secret.
Taye gets in a late night workout in a dark corner of the attic. He really wants to grow out of the “skinny boy” stereotype. Alas! I don’t think he’ll grow into those ears!
Taye’s upstairs now fighting on the weight machine like you always did. He’s determined not to be so scrawny anymore.
In the backyard, River plays pirate in the treehouse. Land Ho!
And River... I caught her in the treehouse you built with her and Pa tonight. She sleeps out there most nights, playing pirate into the wee morning hours. She says she’s lookin’ out for you over the Gulf. You’ve got a guardian angel you know that? Well, I should sleep. I’ve got an online class in the morning and I need my beauty rest. I hope you’re hanging in there. Hurry home. ~ Yours, Chase
Hope you enjoyed!
(The arc itself is NSFW, but if you want to read the chapters featuring the Bayless family directly/indirectly, you can read Unyielding and Unexpected.)

Chase Bayless called around 6am to ask Ven on a date! They just hung out in the hospital parking lot and chatted before school started. So... not much of a date. and poor Venture's had someone else on their mind nonstop, although that person is taken...

The Wanderings of Chase - 15
It all begins the same, in a flurry of sparkles.
Her final trait is Equestrian, which is more strictly planned than usual. Chase knows what she wants now, after years of careful observation, study, and two small cats that crept into her home one winter’s evening.
She wants to be a vet. There isn’t one in Twinbrook, and since the Equestrian Centre opened up, there’s a need for one locally, especially considering you’ve got to travel all the way to Appaloosa Plains for the nearest one. She can do it, she thinks. But first, she needs to do something important.
Her mother of course, offers up the usual fare, because her cousin is roughly the same age and that colour suits you, sweetheart, but Chase didn’t spend every spare day she didn’t have to study just to end up with Lilly Mae’s discarded dress. Instead she took every odd job she could, the small stint of work experience or fixing the school’s boiler, just enough for this. Twinbrook might not have much, but the stylists are pretty good, treating her body like molten liquid to be molded, like it was precious.
Designer. The words taste like mint and sugar and raspberry on her tongue. De-sig-ner, three syllables that are the magic words into a world she’s never been allowed into before. There’s no longer the careful game of keeping too small shoes fitting for as long as they can, or clumsily mending her green winter hoodie with blue thread pilfered from a stray kitchen drawer, because she’s kitted out for everything now. Maybe, this’ll make the difference.
and oh diamond she hopes so
She can fit everything important she owns in one ragged suitcase, because her budget only stretched so far. Her summer clothes, her new, frighteningly adult pyjamas, and a green dress she bought to quash that voice that says she’ll never get to wear it. Her workout clothes, because a new outfit and highlights can only go so far in changing a body, and proper winter clothes, so for the first time, she’ll feel warm when the snow starts to fall.
Her Twinbrook State University flag, because school pride is never a bad thing, and her first riding textbook, squashed safely into her brand new backpack. Her old bear, because where she goes, he goes. The family portrait gets stashed in there, too, because she doesn’t want to forget her roots, she just wants to grow.
And as a new autumn morning breaks, after a eight hour drive in an ancient camo pickup truck, she’s finally, finally made it.

The Bayless Family
Howdy! My name is Chase Bayless, and this is my family. (My mom, Gwayne hates having her picture taken, which is why she won’t look into the camera. She says cameras “are the Devil’s workshop.” Whatever that means.) Anyway, as you mighta noticed, our clothes ain’t exactly the best. Gwayne says “they’re a fashion statement.” But me? I think it’s ‘cause the rich sims what puts their old clothes in the donation box, just use it to get rid of their junk. And poor sims like us, gotta take what we can. Ain’t nothin’ fashionable ‘bout it.
Anyways, that’s me standin in front, with my pa, Skeet, to my left and my brother, Tay, back by our sorta new truck. Our old one, which was newer than this’un, was repo’d by that lowdown, stinkin Clark Peddler. But luckily, we found this’un down in the junkyard and me and my pa fixed it. Well fixed it ‘nuff to get it runnin – sorta.
And this is where we live. It’s not the bestest house, but the roof only leaks when it rains, so that’s good. We used to have a dog and some chickens, but those no-good gators, what moved into our pond ate all of ‘um – the dog included.
And now they won’t leave, ‘cause Gwayne keeps throwin’ our trash out for ‘um to eat, ‘cause she says it’s cheaper than payin’ the county garbage truck guy. “And they ain’t hurtin’ nobody.” Well, they ate our dog! If that ain’t hurtin somebody, I don’t know what is. But you can’t argue with my parents. Not if you know what’s good fer ya.
So, this is the inside of our house. Not real fancy, but we do have a TV, so that’s good. No electric though, so we have to pretend there’s a picture on it. Which ain’t always easy, ‘cause Tay – that’s my brother – likes that Spongebob Squardeypants dude and I don’t. So when I’m pretendin that the Next Top Bridgeport Idol is on, he keeps yellin at me to change the channel. And he usually gets his way, ‘cause he goes tattlin’ on me to Skeet. And Skeet likes him best, ‘cause he’s a boy and “heir to the kingdom”. Whatever that means.
You’re probably wonderin why we’ve got that fancy, ice box when we ain’t got no electric to keep it cold inside. Well, it’s another find from the junkyard, and Skeet says, iffn we ever gets the ‘lectricity, we’ll be ahead of the game. Don’t quite reckon I know what game it is, he’s talkin about, but there ain’t no point askin’ ‘cause it’ll just make him mad, and you don’t want to see my pa when he gets mad. Trust me on that one.
So this is me and my mom. She’s havin’ one of those “mother-daughter binding moments”, pretendin’ she can read, which we all know she can’t. Fact is, neither one of my parents can read. And Tay ain’t much better. He mostly just argues with his teachers. But I plan on gettin’ out of here one day, and the only way to do that is by gettin’ educated. And that’s a fact.
Anyway, I have to visit the outhouse before I go to bed. We used to have buckets we kept by our beds, but that just draws the skeeders, and those bloodsuckers can really bite.
So, you’re probably wonderin why I’m tellin you all this stuff. I know I would be. I mean, it’s not like I’m all that important. ‘Cause I ain’t. Or even interestin’. But last night I got this visitating dream, featurin’ a mangy cat. Called itself the Great and Mighty samkat, Simgoddess Extraordinaire! No lie! And this crazy cat told me to start keepin a journal, ‘cause it’s got “great plans” for me, and other sims need to know how marvelous he?….she?…..it is. Personally? I think I ate one too many crawdads and got me some of that indigestion. But, no point arguin’ with a dream cat, especially when I woke up this mornin’ and found this here book by my bed and a note that said, “Start writing, cupcake! I’m watching you!”
So, that’s what I’m gonna do. At least for a bit.
