the sims

Jamideadly: you start out with a budget and you buy a house..then you find a job if you want to make more money..you start out with a shell of a house, and then you fill it with whatever furniture you want..they have different options and styles with different prices depending on how much you want to spend
Jamideadly: your people have all the needs of regular people and you have to keep up this chart so if they are dying of hunger you have to go eat or need to pee, they go into their little bathroom and use the toilet
Jamideadly: haha and they take a shower..go to bed..all that stuff
Jamideadly: you can go shopping and try on clothes
Jamideadly: And then the Sims have sim sleaze with sim condoms
Jamideadly: Well not really...but they should make a expansion pack for that ;-)
psychocatblah: hmm... that sounds too much like life
Jamideadly: haha but you play god with the sim people
Jamideadly: you can create and destroy...muhahahahaha
psychocatblah: you know... who am i to be god? is my life so great that i should tell little pixel people what they should be doing? i mean... look at me! bad hair! big ass! ;-)
Jamideadly: haha but its the best power trip ever
psychocatblah: and i'd probably just starve them to death
psychocatblah: ask my fish. i'm a bad god
Jamideadly: and it makes me wonder if we are all sim people being controlled by some game player in the sky
psychocatblah: i totally crumbled under the pressure of my pocket pikachu
Jamideadly: yes my brother used to call me the "hitler of sea monkeys" but i didn't mean to kill all those families
psychocatblah: the brine cleansing?
Jamideadly: yes the shrimp holocaust
Jamideadly: yes i pulled the battery on my pikachu
psychocatblah: at least it died with dignity

Blissed out early christmas morning.

I've spent the day watching the xfiles season 4. the whole day. without commercial interruption. i think i'm seriously working on a dour/fixed face expression in a suit fetish. or maybe i'm just feeling squirmy about skin pustules. i'm not sure.

sometimes i wonder if they end up buying that stuff by the gallon. you know, the goo. the pus-like substance. it's good for monsters, good for icky-looking skin abrasions. Probably a bazillion uses that a spooky Martha stewart would have listed somewhere. Speaking in her oh-so-calming voice she'd explain how alien goo is good for putting a good top glaze on the top of your vinyl flooring. Gives it a nice sheen without being too flashy, or eating into the vinyl. Or something.

I ended up with a plethora of CDs and dvds and books. Yet I tell everyone how busy I am all the time. I guess they've finally figured out what I'm busy doing.

I got a yoga dvd which I'm hoping to get a lot of use out of. You know, until I get bored with watching it :) I also got the first season of the simpsons and of twin peaks. on pre-order i have buffy the vampire slayer.

i expect that it will be easy to tell what boxed set I'm in the middle of watching based on what my images are looking like. "hmm... models painted yellow... must be the simpsons" "ahh... donna's wrapped in plastic series... must be watching twin peaks." i guess when buffy comes in i can go back to being known as a gothic photographer. hmm... that might be nice...
