The Dark Knight
This is absolutely, without a doubt, the best movie I have ever seen. I mean, seriously, it was beyond fantastic. If you only see one movie this year, you MUST see this one. And if you’ve already seen it, go see it again.
Christian Bale, fantastic as Batman, of course. Heath Ledger–OMG. Dare I say even better than Jack? I think I do. Yes. Better than Jack. I am so speechless at the pure uberness of this movie. That’s about all I have for now. Go see it. Now. 
I must be cursed.
Why do I have such friggin’ bad luck with this game? Every thing was going hunky-dorey and then all of a sudden the school bus won’t show up. Carpool’s were working just fine, but no school bus. I moved the Troi’s off their lot and back to see if that would work, it didn’t. So I figured I must have a missing portal or whatever. Even though I don’t use boolprop. So I moved them off again and bulldozed the lot. Moved them onto a small lot to see if that would work, and yep, should be fine now.
Except now I have to rebuild their home from scratch. I lost my Legacy Tree and my garden that was just about ready for harvest. Poo! Poo, I say! Oh well, I’ll just plant another Legacy Tree and pretend it never happened. Stupid glitches. *pout*
First Legacy post is up…
The first post of my legacy is up. You can check it out here. Hope you all enjoy!!
Grrrr!!!
It’s official. My Sims 2 game hates me. I go to load it up, nothing unusual, I haven’t downloaded anything or put anything in the game since the last time I played…and nothing. No error, just nothing. The game just won’t load. I am so frustrated right now.
Yippee!
So far, the past few weeks have been a total bummer. Life is really sucking right now. But…I just saw the Edenstyle review for the Apartment Life EP and wowee! I haven’t been this excited since Seasons. I told myself that I was done buying any more Sims 2 EP’s, but yeah, I MUST have this one.
Apartments…spiral stairs…ceiling tiles…MAGIC!!! Man, I hardly stand myself right now. Anyway, here’s the link to the review with pictures and all. Of course, most of you have probably already seen this. I’m always the last to know about anything, but, I’m putting it here anyway. 
ADD much?
Is ADD contagious? I mean, really? I think I’ve caught it or something. Just kidding! Seriously though, just when I think things are going great in my neighborhood, I see a great new neighborhood terrain…or some great custom content, and BAM! Jade, I know why it took you so long to build Thyme…at the rate I’m going, The Sims 3 will have come and gone by the time I’m done with this. *sigh*
But I’m having fun, so I guess that’s all that really matters. Right? 
So, basically what I’m saying is…I’m starting over. Big surprise there, eh? I guess I’m just indecisive…and I am this close to buying SC4 so I can make my own neighborhood terrain. Don’t get me wrong, there are some amazing terrains out there. But, every time I find one I like, I still think to myself…”I wish there was…” So the hunt continues…yet again.
My husband helped me build this great lighthouse and house on a beach lot. (I stink at building things, but my husband rocks!) And of course, my neighborhood is named Emerald Cove…ya know, implying that there actually is a cove. *wink* But I despair of finding a hood with a usable beach that works for me. I really really really want to use the lighthouse lot.
That’s enough for now. I’m just chattering.
Domain name and web hosting
I’m still seriously thinking about getting my own domain and host for Emerald Cove. I think I’ve found a place to host my site, but I’m really a bit clueless when it comes to this kind of thing. So, if anyone has a suggestion, please drop me a comment. I could really use some help on this. Thanks!
Life stinks sometimes.
It really does. Sometimes it feels like we’re never going to catch a break. There’s that saying, “When it rains, it pours.” Not always true, but when it is…dang. Life is flood for us right now and it makes me so angry. I can’t go into specifics, but let’s just say I’m tired of companies lying to my husband to get him to work for them. Twice now it’s happened. We’re mid-twenties and still barely eking by. He’s got a college degree and loads of certifications that should be opening doors, but apparently luck is passing us by or something. Grrr. Anyway, just wanted to vent for a minute.
Finally!
I finally have begun some real work on Emerald Cove. I found a terrain I liked and I have most of my lots plopped down and set where I want them (for now.) I posted a little preview of one of the homes over on Emerald Cove. Go have a look and tell me what you think!
Wow.
There is so much beautiful custom content out there. If I don’t stop downloading soon, my Downloads folder is going to explode.
In other news, I scrapped my neighborhood…yet again. I found myself going in a country-style direction, which I don’t want to do. I always do country, so I refuse to do it yet again. I want a historic feel to my neighborhood, without being historic…if that makes any sense. I’m trying to decide whether I want to do a Victorian-style (because I found some awesome Victorian stuff), Georgian, or Tudor…or something else. Well, probably not Tudor. If I was going to do that, I might as well just play Veronaville.
I’m also still having a bit of trouble finding a neighborhood terrain I like. But I’ll get there. There will be no pictures until I finally settle on something I like and am going to stick with.
