I think it's pretty clear that I won't be updating anymore Sims 2 stories, judging from the silence from these quarters... silence like the grave... s-sob. But if you miss me or wondered what was up or whatever, feel free to add me on amasaglajax and let's keep track of each other, yeah? :)

On that note... I want to do the whole Apartment Life thing now. How is it? Haha, late simantics is late. Where can I get it? And, uh, do the major hacks have compatibility yet? I figure I've waited long enough that they ought to... :o

And for your delectation, the final part of the first multi-part Ishkabibble offering! Without further ado...




( 6.3 )

I meant to have this up yesterday, but, well, I, uh, didn't. lol. Enjoy and have at, anyway :) Comments most appreciated!



( 6.2 )

It's been a while (like, "over a year" a while) since my last post. Sorry about that? XD I've been playing a lot, just not sharing. I play the Ishkaspares a LOT. I swear I play the Ishkaspares more than the current gen (I'm on gen 8 now, I think). But I have a duty to all who follow Ishkabibbles to finish my tale as I believe so many already have, and then play spares all I want. So here's the last update I made, here's allll my Ishka-updates if you're into that kinda thing, you sexy beast you, and here we go with Generation 7's feckless heir, York Ishkabibble.



( 6.1 )

Anyway, because Gen 7 just has SO MANY PICTURES, this update will be split into three parts. Next part within the week!

Oh, and I went back into the game after I wrote the update and found out that Libeomma's real name is Madd, and Stringthing's real name is Tirol Choco. Madd is after the band Mad at Gravity, and Tirol Choco is after a delicious brand of Japanese sweets that just happens to sound like the name of an Aztec god.

Ooh, lordy, I feel faint. I worked all day on it, just bulled through- took a couple-hours-long nap in the middle of it- and I have completed the Ishkabibble Generation 8 update! I'm probably going to split it up. It's huge. It's ridiculous. It's unwieldy. It's been a long time. It's been over a year! I am probably the last person still doing the challenge. HOO BOY. DOING IT ANYWAY. I will try to update within the next year.

Also, after reading this, my idea of a Sim Twilight parody looks even more amusing. It just means I'd have to reread the books again.... euuuugh. Bad enough the first time! I told music_simbol about it and couldn't stop giggling at the thought. I could use adjectives... many, many adjectives. And sparkly brushes, yesss...

It's another birthday for me, folks- boy, this journal sure is racking them up, ain't it? 21 years ago, I was eight hours from being born, but let's just say, it's past midnight on the 29th of July and that's close enough for my purposes. I'm 21! Yay! Damn, I haven't posted anything since my last birthday... well, there's only one remedy for that...

Liquor!!! Legal liquor!!!

Especially since I just finished reading Watchmen, and mind=blown...

D:

...I did NOT know about that... and I used the launcher to play BV... I haven't had any problems, but... now wtf am I supposed to do? D:

Haha! So my fiancee's sister gave me Bon Voyage, since she has Free Time, so I'm downloading houses (since I can't build houses, all of mine suck and are annoying), and updating my hacks and stuff. I refuse on principle to play my game without the gay marriage hack, for one thing. I'm actually having fun just going through TwoJeffs's and Pescado's hacks, and happily thinking about how much fun my game is going to be with the new stuff. Maybe later this summer I'll pick up Free Time. I wonder when Apartment Life or whatever that is is coming out. I'm super excited about that.

Wargh, I haven't updated in a long time, and I always have a reason, don't I? *laughs* Well, I've been in Japan since January, otherwise I certainly would have produced something. It's at the point where I don't remember the boolprop cheat off the top of my head. THE BOOLPROP CHEAT! I am weeping for the fact that I didn't bring my games here- I was afraid they would break on the flight or something. I've been reading strange_tomato's wonderful Strangetown stories, and it made me miss working on my own. It's been so long since I wrote, though, that I'd have to do some kind of summary, or gripping re-intro, or something, to garner interest... Hell, though, really, no one was reading when I started, so it doesn't really matter. *laughs* I'll be home in a month, and I guess I can think about it then.

Oh, and if you want to email me on a lark- I will get this email on my Japanese cell phone as a text- email saikoo_nyc-1ban-bam@softbank.ne.jp. Keep in mind time differences- I am 13 hours different from EST (is that how you even say that? lol)- and that the vibration may wake me up if you text me at my equivalent of Asscrack of Dawn! I hope someone takes me up on the email- I'm really homesick, and it would help a lot. Just make sure to say who you are if it isn't obvious. lol. ♥

...okay, and I was also tired of it telling me I hadn't updated for 25 weeks *snerk*

All the broken links in the old October Project stuff has been fixed, so please feel free to look back at all the oldies but goodies, and do let me know if you catch any broken image links, or anything out of place! I've been meaning to fix it for a while, but I finally got my ass into gear. Thanks to the many people who have written to tell me about the broken links and such.

I really need to update some October Project stuff one of these days. I'm just so scared of fucking things up o_O

I am now twenty years old. :D

I've spent two birthdays with you guys... here's to many more, my wonderful Sims pals!

Since this is a personal note, I also wanted to add the reason why I haven't been posting this summer: I'm at Japanese summer language camp (I'm SUCH a nerd) and I'm doing third year Japanese in two months. Intensive doesn't even begin to describe it, I'm in class 5.5 hours a day and do about that much work in preparation for class daily, too. I'll be back August 17th. I've been playing when I have the chance, but as yet haven't had time to sit down and consolidate a big old post.

Plus, and this is embarrassing... I get seduced by all the Ishka-branches! Does this happen to anyone else? I keep playing all the leftovers and stuff of the GUCCI challenge. I have this big lot, "Yellowstone Apartments," that I dump all the completely miscellaneous adults in, and it's currently got 7 leftovers and their dog in it, and one of the leftovers is pregnant and three of them are teenagers (well, two since yesterday). Why do I play them? Ionno! I really need to do an ISHKA ALL STARS update at some point when the challenge is over so I can share the shenanigans.

But yeah, anyway, happy birthday to me for I am not a teenager anymore! It's ok because I'm a toddler at heart. :D

I wanted to share a picture of my favorite new alien.

( Zefir Ishkabibble )

Is he not adorable?! Don't let those sweet looks fool you, though...



And yet everyone in town wants to be his BFF. What gives?

I made something beautiful today.

All right, since it's been a while and all... :)

( Ishka-family tree behind cut! )

I wish I could have stretched the family tree out to include all the various branches of the family, but then this sucker would be like, 2000px wide. Poo!

I know I haven't posted about the Ishkabibbles since... uh... December... let's just say second semester was a bitch, eh? But ok, so, Generation 5 is all grown up, Generation 6 is present and accounted for, and... I'm having an impossible time deciding. SIMMERS, A CALL TO ARMS.



( ISHKABIBBLE 5.0 )

I'm seriously having the worst time deciding for Generation 6 Ishkabibble heir, but I'm going to wait on showing pictures and asking for advice until I have a complete update out. Which should be quite shortly. I'm currently making a family tree, you know, to pass the time. :)

( i should tell you )

:) Finally- spring break, and I'm able to get this out!!
This part's been written for over a year, but I had to reshoot half of it to make sense. Talk about a headache...

I'm looking for an incest hack compatible with Pets. I don't need (or, god forbid, want) child/adult anything (eww), I just want teen half-sibs to be able to get it on. I searched MTS2 and InSIMinator and found nothing. Any help?
