Baby Did A Bad, Bad Thing
Mea culpa – I bought the latest expansion pack for The Sims - Superstar. Hey, whadda want from me? EA.com sent me a coupon for $15 off as a birthday present. It was beyond my control. Leadeth me not into temptation, for I shall shove thee aside and hurtle headlong into the abyss forthwith. And stuff. Yeah. Like that.
Never mind that I’m about fifteen books behind on my reading list, that I have a website to rebuild for this guy (who’s a total sweetie and writes fun stuff), a synopsis to write and a couple of short stories to edit. Never mind that I have to research writing contests and get more of my stuff out there, never mind that I am meeting up with a bujinkan practitioner to set up a training schedule, never mind that I need to join a gym and pay more attention to PookaToes the Fluffy Warrior of Luv lest he succeed in eating my left eyeball next time I approach his cage. Never mind that I’m heading off to Big Sur this weekend to celebrate my birthday in mellow, outdoorsy style and am supposed to raid Las Vegas for a bachelorette party next weekend and go to the Renaissance Faire the following weekend and play tour guide for a new internet buddy the weekend after that and possibly sing at a wedding the weekend after that. I have a brain-sucking monkey on my back the new Sims expansion pack and ain’t nobody gonna get in my way.
