I've been invaded by family, and thus have been mightily distracted. My brother and his girlfriend have come visit for a month from Holland. Didn't even tell me they were coming until they were here, very naughty.
They're also quite cute. Bro immediately nicked my Sims 3, proceeded to make a household with himself and gf and then had babies. Twins, as it turned out. He's been happily shairng how they're progressing. Heh. One of these days I will become an aunt, I suspect.
Also, there has been posting on
bsg_remix and I might even have done more than one story. Humhum. You will see on the reveal. Some very interesting stories posted, covering a wide variety of characters and topics. Worth checking out. Also I am doing one more remix on a private basis, with a
lotus79 story.
Meanwhile, this story out of Germany has just depressed me so much. A woman who happens to be a muslim gets harassed by guy, takes him to court over it. He stabs her eighteen times in the actual courtroom and when the police come storming in, they accidentally shoot her husband who is trying to help her because they think that is the attacker. So he's in critical condition and she was even pregnant when she was killed.
Seriously, Ireland? Seriously? Then you have this story, which... Yeah, the horrible things people do for money.
A meme I rather liked and nicked:
• Post ten of any pictures currently on your hard drive that you think are self-expressive.
• NO CAPTIONS! It must be like we're speaking with images and we have to interpret your visual language just like we have to interpret your words.
• They must ALREADY be on your hard drive - no googling or flickr! They have to have been saved to your folders sometime in the past. They must be something you've saved there because it resonated with you for some reason.
• You do NOT have to answer any questions about any of your pictures if you don't want to. You can make them as mysterious as you like. Or you can explain them away as much as you like.










And what's up with you all?
