I looked at the calender on my computer today and was all "Wait ... the 18th? SERIOUSLY!?"

I am still here btw, just ... ummm ... other stuffing? (as opposed to stuffing others .. though that might be fun too, I know a few people who need to be stuffed in really small closets, or maybe air tight boxes ... moving on shall we? Yes, I think so.)

Updates:

Mr. Lumpy is due to be measured again in July(ish) as the chemo should continue working through the end of May(ish). The currently measured shrinkage was .4 cm which doesn't sound like a lot but is actually going backwards by about 3 years worth of growth. Not too bad really. Going the right way at least.

I FEEL BETTER! Not perfect yet, which is okay, better is workable. My stomach has mostly settled down again. Still a few things that will set it off (Like pork chops ... seriously. WTF is with that? I love pork chops.) and I have discovered a new found adoration for pickled onions (before they were only kind of okay, now they are my snack food of choice along with olives, dill pickles, lemon water and strawberries ... no, not at the same time! .. well mostly not at the same time)  I also learned how to make salt  & vinegar flavouring powder with no added shit in it it like the kind you can buy. This is good, and turned out to be super easy once I actually started thinking about how to do it. This came about a few weeks back when I was working my way through my third bag of potato chips in 2 days (it was the only thing my stomach could deal with! Don't judge me!) and was all like "There has GOT to be a way to make these not so greasy." There totally is, and yes, once I perfect it I will share. The flavouring also goes really well on roasted chickpeas ... just sayin.

Seeing a trend of me eating sour things here? Yeah, I don't get it either.

And that brings us to The State of The Sims portion of this update. I have to be honest, it is not looking good.

I don't remember if I told you guys I deleted my downloads, and I do mean deleted, not just moved them somewhere for safe keeping like I usually do, DELETED. I don't even have a downloads folder right now. I also deleted my saved sims, hoods and projects folders. I have zero CC in my game right now, not even the stuff I made myself. I don't actually know what I was thinking when I deleted all of it. Tired of the constant annoying problems I guess. The good news is it is running fine (FINALLY!) the bad news is I totally don't want to play it because ... ick! Plus I have all of this rebuilding to do. Hoods, Sims, houses ... everything. Spending weeks rebuilding so does not sound fun right now. On the other hand I kind of really want to play.

So I am thinking of starting off with a challenge or two, in completely blank hoods (probably a few of these). Build up slowly, no mass downloading. You know, go slowly and eventually I will have hoods that I can work with and be back at a state where I can carry on with the stories I was writing. I was enjoying my BACC, obviously I don't have it anymore (because I deleted it *headdesk*) but maybe start a new one, maybe with a few sims I borrowed from other people ... oh ... I like that idea. I think I still have a a back-up somewhere of borrowed sims. Will have to go through the f-list and see who else has nabbable sims they don't mind sharing.

Okay, so maybe I might have lied. Now that I think about it, the State of The Sims doesn't look so bad at all. Was just a matter of finding a way to put the fun back into the rebuild.

well I'm glad to hear you're feeling better. That is very encouraging to hear.

0.o Sour things? You? Hehe...well, at least you're enjoying them? ^^

D: Oh no! I'm so sorry to hear that. Damn...and I was enjoying your BACC too. It was quite entertaining. Well good luck none the less. I'm trying to stay off the challenge/legacy bandwagon for a bit and just play around haphazardly xp hehe....

Looks like you're about to have a fresh start (fits the season) on the simming front, although I hardly believe you'll stay away from those many old back ups you probably have stacked all over the place :p
I wanna start a legacy, I've never done one. And dig up my first hood from my own dusty back ups.

Glad to know you're feeling better and things are going in the right direction, and shrinking the right way. Yay, good news!!
