And the ground was a shakin'!

So I'm finishing up eating a DELICIOUS DINNER, at my scrapbook table while watching SuperNanny, only cause I don't want to get up yet and put in a DVD. When all of a sudden the ground jerks and shakes a bit, long enough for me to jump up and RUN to the door frame, grabbing my dog, (who has NO idea what is going on) and sit on the floor practically hyperventilating - for it to be a little 3.1 earthquake centered northwest of Newport Beach. What can I say? Earthquakes freak me out, no matter the magnitude.

So I called my Grandpa to see if they felt anything and they didn't. Then the news came on telling us where and how big it was so I knew then why no one else felt it. So, I sat in the floor under the door frame, talking to Grandpa for about 15 minutes.

It's just a weird feeling, as those of you know who've been in any earthquake, that the ground which is all the time so solid and secure, to move underneath you. And who knows if a door frame would really save you from a house falling in that has a tile roof. But I'd rather stay there then under nothing. My scrapbook table wouldn't hold up to me laying on it let alone a roof!

Oh well. Not much news to report except for the puny quake. I haven't yet updated my Sims stories, but I will. Possibly tonight. I'm creating a separate page for the Sims so it won't be in with me rambling about myself.

So what is your say on earthquakes?

Thanks for listening!

MEEZ!

This is Wolverina meeting Captain Jack Sparrow! :)

"If I could escape, and recreate a place as my own world..

And I could be your favorite girl...forever..."

Okay, sorry, was singing to the song...woo whoo, yee whooo! If I could escape...oh wait I did!! Yep, I escaped to my own Sim world and checked on Wasabia while eating dinner. Working on the newsletter now and making ring tones on Nero (thanks Erin Road)...

So, after a Honeymoon filled with relaxation and love making, Wasabia and Wez came home. At first they thought that Wasabia had contracted some kind of foreign disease cause she could NOT stop throwing up. It was horrible! She'd sit on the couch then jump up and run and go throw up in the toilet...then sit down and jump up and run and throw up again...which TOTALLY ruined her hunger levels. I mean she was just emptied clear out! So much so that when finally finding out that she was pregnant, it took her days to get back to semi normal.

She was so tired that she couldn't eat, but so hungry she couldn't sleep. It got bad enough that she was falling asleep in her food and passing out on the floor. Stuffing her face in the refrigerator didn't help either. Wez was getting really worried. He moved the spare bed into the kitchen to try and help her sleep close to the kitchen and eat, but that didn't help much. Finally, after Wez cooked her some Spaghetti, she stayed up long enough to eat it.

In the meantime, Wez was still working. He decided that working for Joe Q (the pompous ass) was just never going to cut it, so he left the Comic world and is now a Wedding Photographer. He seems to enjoy his career, although he just discovered his favorite hobby is nature. He likes to hike and walk his dog, Grimalkin, ...and catch lightening bugs! :) Oh well..

So, keep checking to see how Wasabia does and if she will even live through this terrible pregnancy. ..

My Crazy Sim Life

Livin la vida Sims!

Yeah, sad to say, and most of you are just going to think I'm the biggest dork in th world. (Am I killing you Eric?) So if you didn't already know that, you do now! I'm not going to go into a GREAT DEAL of character background for you , but I might as well tell you some.

I created a sim about a year ago...Onyon Funyun. I made her fat, why? Cause Funyun's can make ME fat! :) Was just creating her for the hell of it, but then actually started to care about the sim so I gradually let her life progress. (Of course, the amount of time I actually get to play has been very few throughout the year which is why I say "gradually" let her life progress.)

Anyway, she met this NPC (non-playable character) Ben and they hooked up and got married. He got demoted in his job and became a whiny baby for awhile, but somewhat got better after finding out he was going to be a daddy. (Can't have a whiny daddy can we?) So, Onyon and Ben had two children: Wasabia and Frita Lay. Wasabia was always the perfect student and refusing to be in the same weight situation as her mom. She never let chips get to her and went to college. She gratudated magna cum laude in Literature.

While in college, she met Wez Pretzel. He was just a junkie art student that came from a kinda screwed up home, and would not have graduated had she not helped him. So their relationship progressed inside and outside of school. Wez proposed to Wasabia while in his underwear.... and she actually said yes. They're now on their Honey Moon at Twikiki Island. Wez has made a nice career working on the Spider-Sim comic book (I seriously did not plan that one), and has his foot in the door to becoming something high up in the comic food chain. Hopefully he'll replace Joe Q and kick his ass out the damn door!!....

Sorry, little off the subject there. So, if ya'all are interested in what happens with Wasabia and Wez, and the other Funyun clan, let me know. Otherwise, you won't see another Sim post of them again. ;)

OH, and little Frita Lay? She's attending private school right now and is an A student as well - however she's getting involved with the nightlife and has her sight set on one of the Vampires. Onyon and Ben are still working even though they're at retirement age. Ben for all his crying has made it to the top position in the law enforcement career (cheif i think...) and goes to work in a limo and has a fingerprint gun at home to help with cleaning. Onyon is top chef and can make candy in her home.
