The Official Nonsense Thread

Anyone home? *lies down on sofa*

It's cold again. Crazy weather. I note that it's supposed to be well below zero tonight and v nippy indeed in the north. Hopefully no important bits will freeze off Minty, like toes for example. Fortunately I have retrieved my winter coat from the cleaner so if it gets really frosty I'll be prepared.

I've had a slightly odd weekend, being massively hungry at all times and not sleeping properly. I had some freaky dreams and woke up very confused in the early hours of Saturday. The neighbours have been doing some yelling and the birds outside have been noisy too, with woodpeckers making a racket in the morning and owls hooting like nutters in the evening. I guess everyone here is acting a bit crazy, including me.

My team lost AGAIN and are now sinking towards possible relegation. Be a terrible shame after spending all that money on the floodlights and nearly raising enough for the new food stand if they then get relegated. Oh well.

On the plus side, I've played plenty of my game. It's a welcome, absorbing distraction. I did something wrong with an invisible friend doll (that sounds a bit wrong but never mind). I thought if the sim child talked and sang with it a lot as a toddler then it would become "real" when she aged up to child. But it remained a doll. Then I sent her to boarding school and now she's a teen and can no longer interact with the silly doll. I think I'd better just delete it and try again with the next one.

Also I forgot to check the mailbox for quite a long time, then when I remembered there were absolutely loads of love letters in there, including several from a deceased sim. Bit creepy, that.

Oh yes, and a boat-taxi got lodged upside down in the front drive of a house I'd just finished renovating and I nearly went mad trying to delete it. TS3 routing failures do not really help with anger management. I had to send my sim to sit in a hot tub until I calmed down.

That is all my news.

In the wider world, some idiot minister has banned prisoners from being allowed to receive books as gifts, and that plane is still missing. Where are you, plane?
