Hi Laura!!! Found this thread so of course I had to respond!!!
It's great to find out so much insight into your story! I will check back here too from now on.
Love the header. And I'm wondering a lot about who the mystery girl you just mentioned is.

Oh my gosh! I almost spit out my coffee from your first post! Definitely had a share of frustrating sims/situations. I'm enjoying this little insight too! Definitely going to check in on this thread too. I'm really curious who you are referring too... I have an inkling who it may be from some possible *hints* you've wrote out before. (*hints* like this, because sometimes I look too hard at things, and you may have meant nothing by it.... )

Maisie, I love it when you guys pick up on my little "hints" - it makes it all worth putting them there in the first place. So you're probably onto something

I wasn't really sure where to ask you this, so I figured here would be a good place. I noticed in the round 2082 overview that you have an update planned toward the end with Phoenix (Sophie) and I just wanted to tell you im really excited! she's one of my favorites and I feel like I really havent heard that much from her at all. I went back and looked through some of her updates, and then I realized well, she's a happy married older woman, LOL and it makes sense to turn the story toward Hayden and Summer's problems.
Anyway, whatever you do I will be more than happy to read, just wanted to make a request.

LOL, I'm glad you like Sophie, she's a sweet lady She'll get a decent cameo in Hayden's update, and she'll participate in a prequel story I'm planning for the next chapter break. She's never given me an ounce of trouble on her own behalf, and the only complication in her life, really, has been Hayden, lol! Pretty much since he was a kid. She'll be happy to have him married off and happy again, I think

Which is more fun, "shopping" for Bella Bradshaw's wedding dress, or shopping for the bridesmaid dress she's going to make Mariah wear as matron of honor? LOL! I think she's thinking red, and way more skin than Mariah's comfortable with This wedding is going to be too much fun!

Oh, you're making me want to do another big wedding, with a bridal party and everything! That's it - next wedding I do is going to be another huge one!
I cannot wait to see what Bella makes Mariah wear! I'm giggling already and cringing in sympathy for Mariah.

Sometimes I'll be writing Max, and I swear he's inhabiting my brain because otherwise I just don't know how such filthy, filthy things get in there, lol! It's not me, it's him! I swear it! Carla, lol, Mariah is going to have one hell of a time at this wedding! I think I'll do a bridal party dance too, just so she has to dance with Max (who is best man) in that dress! OMG, she's gonna die!!! I'm pretty sure James gets invited to the wedding too, lol! I'm SO cracking up at this, lol! I am just evil - EVIL - to my characters! But I love Mariah, so I'll make sure Micah is there to save her - after we watch her squirm a bit But man, this whole series of stories is taking FOREVER to finish! The game crashing doesn't help!

I love that. Can we try blaming our characters for other things too? Like it's their fault I didn't do the laundry today. Yeah. And omg, you're being mean. You can't do anything else online until this story bit is posted.

I kind of take the opposite approach... I use the load screen time to tidy up and declutter... so if my house is untidy, I just tell myself, I need to play sims more

Well sure, if they weren't so damned compelling, I'd get tons of laundry done The wedding won't be until the third part, probably this weekend, but I'll be working on the second part today. Blackcat, I need to do more of that! It's just so easy to check emails instead, lol!

Ugh, it's coming people, it's coming! Before I go to bed tonight, I swear it!
Do you ever feel like not only are you whipping an update into shape, but then kicking it while it's down and dragging its sorry ass through the mud? lol!

I just wanted to say, Bella Bradshaw and Cameron Gibson got married last night, lol! It was a fun (and huge) wedding! But because it was so huge (in Sims terms, with my computer, seriously, the 20-something guests they invited is the biggest I've ever done) I didn't end up torturing Mariah as much as I thought I would, lol! Oh, I tortured her a little. She tortured herself a bit as well. Shenanigans in the bathrooms, people! What is it with my Sims and bathrooms? Eeew! I think I'm aiming for Sunday/Monday-ish

I don't know if it's my Sims with the bathroom fascination or me, I counted a total of four scenes that take place in bathrooms for this coming update. Only one of them is somebody getting busy though, lol! And on another completely cryptic note - I just figured something out! Don't you love that feeling when you've got this character, who's all kinds of messed up and you have no idea why. And then, like a light bulb, you know. You finally know exactly what they need and how they can move forward. I love epiphanies like that ...and I was in the bathroom when I realized it :\

Good news? My novel is spilling out of my fingers like MAGIC this week! That's always a nice feeling Bad news? Novel trumps this LH update I keep meaning to work on. But you know, that's got to be the order of things. I hope to get a chance to work on it today... that is, if this novel of mine decides to stop being so witty and charming, lol!

I just enabled the AllMenus cheat, and I'm about to try it out! I've already shot through the wedding update, but I'll try it out on their honeymoon. I don't usually do honeymoons, but Bell and Cam are both begging for one, and I feel bad that I never, ever give any of my Sims a honeymoon, lol!
