My Woodstone Sims Live!

anonymoose_au9:30pm: Yes! I finally got the game to open and reconnect with Trevor, Hetty, Thor, Sass, Pete, Isaac, Alberta and Flower, as Isaac would say "Huzzah!"
I also went to my Hill Valley save to see if that would load up, which it did, hooray! Although, Biff's grandma (currently a teen) manage to set the kitchen on fire... and because her family lives in a tiny apartment in Chicago the fireperson took their sweet time getting up there and then just stood around for most of the Sim day. Fortunately Gertrude's father managed to put out the fire himself. LOL, just crazy Sims 3 stuff.
In real life news, today was the last Beginner's Archery lesson! I started off pretty well, despite the wind (which because of how close we were to the target didn't actually affect the arrow, but it did make it harder to aim with the bow!), but I still can't quite figure out the damn sight thing, is it too low? Is it too high? Too much to the left? Or the right? Who even knows :OP
However, I along with the rest of the class passed and we each get a certificate that says we know enough about archery now to be safely admitted to any archery field in Australia and the world. Wow nice! And next Sunday I'll be heading down again to hopefully join the Adbow class (which I've belated realised stands for Adult Bow, as Kid Bow is obviously for kids, don't know how I missed that one).
I also found out what sized bow I should have, which unsurprisingly is a shorter one than what I had... although the poundage of the draw-back (if that's the right term) tends to be heavier, which is a bit of a worry for me since I'm a weakling. Also if I do buy my own bow, unlike the ones we've been practicing with are metal rather than wood and heavier. Man... shakes head. Still it would be pretty neat to have my own bow with a green riser (the part that you hold), although that might be a bit much, the cheapest bow you can get (that's not second hand or whatever) is like $250. Might be a bit much, since I did buy my own ice skates, which i haven't used in ages, grumbles at self.
Anyway! After archery I went straight to my Aunt and Uncle's place for the family brunch, and thankfully it was literally just around the corner, because Mum told me to come at 11, but it was more like 11:30. I didn't miss the brunch though, which was great because it was delicious! Also I'm relieved to announce that my blueberry muffins tasted great! I was honestly a bit concerned about them yesterday when they seemed kind of...over cooked. However, my aunt put them in the microwave for like 40 seconds before serving them and they were nice and soft. Huzzah! Also despite my concern there was a nice amount of dollop cream left over, which as agreed I got to take home as well as a few leftover muffins. Hmmm...I wonder if I should take them into the office, maybe not as there's only 3.
I dropped Dad home on my way back to my place, where I got my Sims game going and continued to watch James Turner's Bigwallet marathon, which is set to end around 10pm tomorrow night. Which is probably for the best because it makes for very addictive watching LOL.
Also distracting! It's a quarter past 10 now, so I better haul, before I go though...

These questions were written by Dreamwidth user zenigotchas.
1. What's the strangest, unexplainable incident you have experienced or have heard of? Hmm...well the Bermuda Triangle stuff used to sound pretty creepy, but there seems to be logical explanations for all of that. I guess...they time I had this dream at camp and the very next day it came true! O.o Unfortunately, it wasn't a very fun dream. Creepy!
2. Which mythical creatures or cryptids do you think are most likely to exist or have existed? Hmmm...I dunno... maybe Big Foot? Although it'd pretty cool if there used to be unicorns.
3. If you became a mythical figure how do you think you'd be portrayed? Hmm... I honestly haven't got a clue, depends what sort of mythical figure I became! If it was a Greek Goddess I'd probably be a really beee-eetch.
4. What animal do others find creepy that you find cute? *Scratches head* I'm not sure I can think of one to be honest. Charlotte, from Charlotte's web is pretty cute for a spider, but then that was probably the point of the animation. LOL.
5. What is your favorite lost civilization? Well, you can't really go past Atlantis can you? That would indeed be a sight to see!
And now it's past 10:30, so I better wrap this up and head off.
Goodnight all!
