In order to read more, my goal is to be finished with 100 books by October 1, 2010. I started this goal on October 1, 2009. I'll be updating this post with the books that I have finished reading.

I saw Metric live in Milwaukee with my friends Caitlin, Emma, Katie, Rachel, and PJ. Ohmygod, they were so amazing!!
They were playing at The Eagle Club. The way that place is set up is mosh pit style. We started off at the back of the pack of people but weren't happy with that at all. We decided that we wanted to shove our way through the crowd and get as close as we possibly could. We settled for being somewhere around the 7th row. Caitlin wanted to be closer so she shoved her way closer and got 2nd row. Me and Emma tried to join her but the people ahead wouldn't let us. They linked arms and wouldn't budge. Some girl looked directly at me and screams in my face, "SERIOUSLY?!" Sorry, I was just trying to get up by my friend so we could enjoy the concert together! Whatever.
We ended up getting up around 3rd row anyway. And the people I stood in front of didn't seem to mind either, so that was awesome. The bad thing was that no one around us was dancing. "Empty" played and I started going crazy. I was jumping up and down and I'm pretty sure I stepped on a TON of toes.
At the end of the show she jumped off the stage and came up to the gate and stood on it. People swarmed her and me, Cait, and Rachel got SO CLOSE to being able to touch her hand but she moved over to the left side of the stage. Shoot.
It was awesome though and I'd love to see them again!

Ok, so the dream started off with me and some other people sitting on a pink roof eating waffles. We were up on the roof to avoid being captured by some giants. Shortly after I had to run away because the giants spotted me. I ran to a playground and was chased around by the giants and some of their children minions. That then turned into this fort like multi level wooden structure out on a lake. This man tells us that the giants are headed our way. I don't listen and instead go swim in the lake. Everyone leaves. I get out of the lake and there's a cute boy there who also stayed behind to swim. He looks at me, smiles, and then steals some cocount soap and suggests I do the same. Then we walk to a hotel. In the lobby of the hotel we see two girls. One looks irritated and the other has a ton of pill containers. She's telling the irritated looking girl that she's stolen a ton of pills and that she's a recovering alcoholic. Me and the boy got on the elevator. The irritated looking girl shot us a look and ran for the elevator. Pill popper looked pissed and then yelled, "BITCH!" and ran away. We were riding in the elevator and flirting with the boy. Then the elevator stopped. We all screamed and decided that a gorilla was to blame. Some how we got out of the elevator and had to walk through this room that looked like one giant garage sale. (I work at an art supply store and there's one section where there's just a ton of easels so the dream shifted to be located there). There's some snobby girl painting at an easel and she pissed me off so much. The girl that got on the elevator with me is with me and she distracts the snobby girl so that I can destroy her painting and smash her easel. I run up the stairs to get away from the snobby girl. I unlocked a room that looked like a giant dorm room. My old roommate was sitting at a table painting her nails. She scared the shit out of me. She started talking about a swim meet and I talked about garage sales.
Then I woke up and wrote down the dream. It was bizarre.

3.375? I don't even know if that's right.
Do I care?
No.

I've thought that this entire challenge but I've been too lazy to change it.
Mannnn, it is ugly.

Chapter 1.5 of The Rowley Family OWBC.
It's a pretty short chapter, but it's seriously a huge pain to edit pictures. Small updates will help keep me sane. :)

Here are the Mini-Challenges I'm going to be attempting:
Boolprop Naming Scheme:
Naming the first generation's three children names that start with B, O, and O. The second generation's children would be given names that start with L, P, and R. The third generation's children would be given names that start with O, P, and C.
I'm doing this one to an extent. I will not be following the 8 commands every 24 hours, but I will be marrying in simselves. I know that I will not receive points for this mini-challenge, I just wanted to make it known that simselves will be marrying in.
Beyond Cheesy:
Your sims may only ever, ever, ever eat grilled cheese. This rule does not apply to Sims living in dorms at college. Otherwise, morning, noon, and night your Sims will eat, breathe, and live the glory and wonder and majesty of grilled cheese.
Family Scrapbook (*maybe*):
Every member of the family must have either their picture taken, via photobooth, camera, or printed in a family album, or their portrait painted or sketched with a draft table and hung somewhere around the house. Your house must contain a picture of everyone that has ever lived in the house by the end of the challenge. Each generation, starting with the founder, must write one novel.
MOAR ALIENS aka Bitsy's Challenge:
Every generation, starting from the birth of first generation, you must have an abduction result in an alien child. If an heir is abducted their pregnancy may be considered one of the three mandatory pregnancies, and the child may be included in the Boolprop Naming Scheme and may be up for heirship.
Yea, I know, I'm going for a lot of them.

I'm desperately trying to update my legacy, but it's been slow going. I plan on playing this weekend (maybe for several hours on Friday), but sometimes it's awkward when my roommate is in the room with me. I told her that I play The Sims, but it still feels weird to play it. I know I shouldn't be weirded out because it's just a computer game, but I feel like she's watching over my shoulder (I know she's not though). So, I promise to get the next chapter out as soon as I possibly can. The first baby in generation...5 has been conceived and is a belly pop away from being born. Then I have to sim like mad to get them to be teenagers. It's going to be difficult, but I'll squeeze in some sim time next time I have a chance.
On a completely unrelated note...birds have taken shelter from the rain in a tree RIGHT OUTSIDE MY WINDOW and they won't shut their beaks. I can see about 15 of them sitting on the branches.
I want to snap their necks.
No wait, that's too violent. I just want to flail at them so they'll go away.
My brain's oozing out my ears.

Right, let's get on with it!

Hi! Welcome baccccck!
Took me long enough huh?
Sorry about that. Things were pretty crazy. I'm getting ready to head to school (Freshman year!!!) so I had a lot of dorm shopping to do. I'm finally finished and I was in a legacy mood so I played for about 4 hours last night...not stopping until generation 3 reached teenagerhood.
And when the generation gets to teenagerhood what do you guys get? You get a chapter!
Sooooooo, let's go!!
This update is huge! I got a bit picture happy. :)

Well, I got bored. I decided to start off a new legacy this evening. Now, I'm not a storyteller, so I'll most likely just be posting pictures tracking the legacy. You can read or you can comment on how awful it is...I don't mind either way. :)
