Still here

[katrisims]

I thought maybe it was time to actually say something. So... "something"? As you may have noticed, I haven't been around much. Or, I have been following what's going on and commenting with my usual delay, but I haven't posted anything myself.

I haven't really done any simming recently either, or writing. Basically, I haven't felt like it. Taking care of real life has been a priority, and although there has been a certain amount of waiting around (maybe I'll get around writing something about it f-locked one of these days), I've found myself preferring simple relaxation and entertainment over project-type hobbies. So I've played Civ 5, or some game on my Wii, or done some other such thing.

Today was actually the first time I've opened my simming computer for... maybe a month or so. It was getting dusty. :P I miss my simmies, and today I'm actually feeling like maybe doing something with them. We'll see how far I get with that. I'm also contemplating maybe joining SimStoCremo next month. I may have a lot of time in my hands then, so maybe. Of course, last time I tried it, I ended up having an extended writer's block, so I'm a bit wary too. I suppose by the end of the month I'll be ready to decide.

So yeah. Nothing hugely much to say still. But I'm still here, and not intending to go anywhere. And I'm glad you're still there too. ^^

Glad you're still around and things are going OK. The waiting can be the hardest part, and I'm sorry you're having to go through that IRL. I hope things get going better soon. In the meantime, just remember to have fun, and we'll see you around when you're online. :) *hug*

Thanks, Esme! *hugs* It's good to have this place to still be around. :)

Hi Katri! *waves*
It's always good to hear from you :)

Hi Lorin! *waves back* Thanks. :) I'm glad to have this place to come back to!

Glad to hear from you, Katri. I second what Esme said. Real life is definitely important, and you did what you have to do.

I'm with you on CreMo, since I would love to join once I get the next chapter out by the end of the month so that I can work on the one after that. Whether or not I'll accomplish it is still a matter of time, though.

Thanks, Lenny! Real life is like that sometimes, but it's good to be able to come back/be around.

Yeah, CreMo might be a nice way to get some progress, I'll see how things go... Good luck if you decide to go for it, or you know, even if you decide not to! :D

I am still here too, I just massively suck at commenting >.<

It's frustrating how many good games there are out there that do not involve being productive. Curse them and their distractingness :P

Also, I've signed up for Simstocremo and am already 99.8% sure I've massively overreached for my target, so if you have signed up and don't manage it, don't worry, you won't be alone >.>

*Hugs!*

*huggles Mzyra* You're still here too! ^^ Don't worry about the commenting, I know exactly how it is.

Yup! And right now, it's been much, much easier to play a game like that than to try to do anything productive... I'm showing signs of missing my sims and my story, though, so hopefully I'll get to the swing of things again. ... eventually.

*cheers Mzyra on for SimStoCreMo* I'm still undecided, but maybe...

*hugs*
