Yubsie's Yammerings

So that offer of cookies in exchange for apping Simon Tam at glaxcinprison? Totally still stands. I seem to have written myself into a playercesty corner where Wash and Martha have to interact that I totally wouldn't be in if we had a Simon. :p

Cookies. Chemists are excellent bakers, btw. :p

Wash needs to stop being so happy. It's making me sad!

So, since Adama/Roslin is the latest addition to my rather short OTP list, I started thinking about the list. And realized it's a depressing, DEPRESSING list. Seriously!

All of Yubsie's Full Blown OTPs EVER

Han/Leia: Actually did okay... other than the fact that one son is dead, the other son is EVIL and dead and their daughter lives at Donna Noble's Home for Abused Characters. :p

Cher/Hubb: Were in WOLF'S RAIN. :p

Angel/Collins: "Hey Nuki, have you seen... RENT?" :p

Zoe/Wash: Are the HMS TESSIE DEADSHIP.

Bill Adama/Laura Roslin: Are on BATTLESTAR GALACTICA

Carrot/Angua: Are in the best shape on the list. Now if only we could get Tess to stop shipping them...


In conclusion: I need to stop letting Tess near my OTPs. :p

I beat Curse of Monkey Island yesterday. It was great fun. I heart that game liek woah. :p

And of course, today being Sunday, I played Sims. :p Poor Dawn Tam is starting to wonder if she's the only lesbian teen in the neighborhood. Gotta loved randomized orientation. (There are actually at least two other lesbian teens in the neighborhood. Unfortunately, they're her aunt [Hyacinth Tam] and her aunt's girlfriend [Autumn Washburne]) Though at least she's a Popularity sim, so she's not distraught about her lack of dating potential. She's happy to befriend the random girls she brings home from school. :p

And Del and Sue had their baby. A son named Anything. He was born in the middle of a date, actually. :p And yet they still managed to have a dream date. :p Sue is a very bizarre Popularity sim and never rolled a want to throw a graduation party. Del did though, so she got to have the party. Sue got to just quietly move back to the neighborhood with Anything. :p Who didn't get accidentally left behind, yay!

Also, Destiny smustled with a llama at the graduation party.

( It was awesome plus bonus pictures )

I take delight in such simple things as the fact that I can say "Wash probably had dinosaurs in his zarf."

Well, it's true. He probably DID. :p

Zarf!

Mount A people will appreciate my pain here...

AAAAAAARG, Western is doing a President search! Not again! :p

Played Sims today. Mal got to join Zoe, Wash and Jayne in the Old People Club. :p Also, Four and Sarah Jane apparently really wanted a daughter. I had to reload the birth FIVE TIMES before I got Luke. Naturally that was when I had declared "If this is another girl, I'm naming her Maria, giving up and making them have another kid." :p

Also, Sarah Jane's stripey overalls look kinda hilarious on a pregnant woman. :p

Oh, and Sarah Jane got fired on a chance card. So I turned around and had her get a job in the same career... and that job was higher than the one she got fired from in the first place! :p

( Vertical stripes are slimming, but there are LIMITS. :p )

Yay using safety rules as an excuse to slack! Today is a fake holiday (Family Day, arbitrarily invented by the provincial government this year), but I was going to go to work and enjoy Monday NOT being a write off for once. Except no one else was there. So I ran an NMR, and no one else was there. And since we're not supposed to work in the lab alone, I went home and played Sims. :p

Jayne now has a daughter named Fred. To go with his alien son, Sue. Sue is already in university, so I could redecorate his racecar bedroom to a butterflies and ladybugs nursery for Fred. Hopefully Jayne's glarey eyes will look better on her when she's older, incidentally. :p

I finished designing our invitations yesterday. So now I just have to figure out how I'm doing the reply cards and, y'know, actually ORDER the things. :p They are full of stealth geekery. :p

I am now composing an LJ post in Notepad for when I next have internet. How sad is that?

But I have the Serenity Collector's Edition and am so thrilled and need to talk about it!

First off, the new commentary is LOVE. Ron Glass is one of the people doing it, and they're constantly going on about how he's NOT IN THE MOVIE. :p Summer Glau doesn't talk much, but when she does she's just so cute! And of course, Nathan Fillion, Adam Baldwin and Joss Whedon are just hilarious. Also, apparently the FSHWING was partially due to Alan Tudyk's schedule being annoying. And Joss feared for his life at fan screeenings. As well he should. :p

There's also some new extended scenes. One of them finally explains why Mal had Jayne with him and not Zoe, which never made sense to me before. But Fanty and Mingo objecting to excess crew and Mal telling Zoe she can go off with Wash works.

The wave from Inara is also extended. There were some PRICELESS lines. Particularly "Please tell me you're wearing pants." and Kaylee saying "They are so pathetic!" when Mal doesn't say what he should. :p Win. :p

I finally got my buspass. Now I just have to figure out the transit system. :p

We also bought a mattress today. It's supercomfy. Alas, it won't be delivered for another week or so. The floor does not have a high comfort or energy rating, incidently. :p

Oh, and my buying of DVDs continues. Today I picked up Chicago and Jesus Christ Superstore. Ryan got Logopolis (death of the Fourth Doctor), Robin Hood Men in Tights and Mirrormask (I wasn't using my soul anyway! :p)

Oh, and Supernatural? Kina awesome. :p

Sweet, sweet internet, never leave me again! :p

I hate apartment hunting. It's hard enough finding vacancies, and then explaining that actually, no I can't show up in person, we're currently roughly a thousand kilometres away! I just want to have a place to live and not have to be doing this anymore.

I've played lots of sims in my internet deprived state. Amid my epidemic of baby girls, Winter and Tycho can't seem to have anything but boys. They have their university oopsie baby Bail who is now a teenager, and then they have a toddler named Airen and baby twins named Garm and Jan. Also, the awesomeness of Seasons includes toddlers aging up to randomly selected toddler hair, and Airen wound up with Winter white hair, which is awesome.

Destruction, Desire and Despair are all now in university. I actually decided Destiny needed a wife, because his house is going to get SO boring once Del leaves too. :p University in fall is a dream, incidently. They fill the class bar SO crazy fast. Combined with only playing every other semester and they're all flying. Though the clock has clicked into winter now. I hope I get to see snow soon. :p

Thisland Washburne is now married to Marigold Tam (Simon's alien MPreg baby :p). It took ages for me to get them married because they were on such different schedules. :p

I looked into manufacturer exchanging Pets, but it looks like the shipping charges would be absurd. So I'm going to return for store credit and just buy the bloody thing elsewhere. :p

Finally, my brother got fed up with CBC's nonsense and downloaded the current season of Doctor Who. We only have three episodes to go.

( And I have been DYING to squee and didn't have internet )
