So I finally got Castaway Stories and I like it for the most part, but it's driving me nuts that I can't use custom hair or makeup (for nose masks, freckles, etc.). I made sure to enable them and restarted the game, but the only things showing up are the default replacements. Maxis hair is teh gross >.>

Also, I thought I was going to be able to start working on the Cutler update but some heavy RL stuff has presented itself today. Well, more like yesterday but the shit really hit the fan tonight. Ever meet a man that is a complete fucking selfish bastard and all you'd like to do is shoot him in the fucking face? Seriously. Every time he throws a tantrum like a kid he makes me hate him a little more, but this just takes the cake. He doesn't deserve to be a father. In fact, he doesn't deserve anyone in his life. Fucking bastard.[/end rant] Sorry. I've just been dealing with this BS since last summer and it's steadily getting worse because of that asshole.

ANYHOW. Yay for The Sims loading in a timely fashion.

I mentioned on my craptacular twitter the other day that I was working on a new skintone for lovely Mr. Larson. I ended up just slapping Aikea's hair overlay onto an Ephemera skin, blending a peggy face onto it so he would still look the same. Although he still did look fairly close without it. Then I put his tattoos on moraque's overlay box so they wouldn't be passed down to the kidlet (omg, red hair PLEASE!). It'll take time getting used to, mainly because his pecks are no longer so massive and strange. It got [profile] seraphic_slayer's approval anyway xD

It's amazing how my game or computer always decides to have a problem when I need to do something. I was already having a frustrating day yesterday as it was but I decided, even though I really wasn't in the mood, to fire up the game so I could get the pictures of the wall decals for next week. It loaded up to the neighborhood selection screen faster than usual but Belladonna Cove never loaded. I had a similar problem the day before so I restarted the computer and it did go after, but the stupid game crashed when I sent my sim on a date. With a teen Jesse Larson oddly enough =P

So now I'm thinking there's no point in trying to hurry my writing to work on the update if it's just going to have problems. I've been extremely moody towards it all anyway.

Now I guess I get to take the pictures on my laptop, which I hate doing because they're never as nice and the lighting seems to suck balls. I thought about doing another set but I'm sick of thinking up new things and quite honestly I don't feel inspired at all. So it's 3 gifts from me and however many Kayleigh ends up uploading when she can get to it. Good e-fucking-nough.

If you think getting a divorce will be really hard on your son, stealing something from a neighbor that can get you fucking shot probably isn't a good idea either. Just a thought.

God damn, some people just don't think about the consequences.

Holy crap. Suddenly I'm glad I don't do graphics for a living.

I've been working on a vbulletin theme since Saturday morning (and I'm talking early, just before 6am) for a friend of my husband. Usually when I do such things I drag it out over a week or more because I'm lazy and it's not so bad. Unfortunately this time around I'm cramming it all into a couple days because he's so anxious; the first day was also hell not having slept since 9:30am Friday. I was amazingly productive just the same! Ignoring my 20 minute nap at the dinner table, of course XD

Thankfully it's winding to a close, or at least until he finds something else for me to do. He's nice and everything, but holy hell, I don't want to do this again for a long time! *cries*

I was trying to recreate some of the Cutler characters in The Sims 3 and oh my god, Jesse was perfect. I mean he was so close to the original yet better! Sloane wasn't quite right and David was kind of similar. I was so excited because I wanted to see their personalities play out.

Yeah, well, so much for that. My game decided to crash on the way to the neighborhood. Stupid thing. I should've taken screenshots.
