Why I Haven't Updated Yet, By Jo

[jothirteen]

It kind of goes like this:


I wanted to get an ATOR update out, I really did. But it turns out that nothing comes out when I try to actually write it.


Oh, no, not writer's block! Why do I have so many good plot ideas in the middle of the semester, when I can't write updates, but then my classes end and all the ideas run away?


Maybe if I...nah. Or I could just...well, that's a no. I should probably...
...I have no idea.


I HAVE THE FEELING MY ATOR INSPIRATION MIGHT BE MOCKING ME.


Perhaps if I had a cup of coffee things would get clearer in my head again... *drums fingers against desk*
...or maybe not. Curse my narcoleptic brain!


The only thing it's good at is making me feel like a zombie all freaking day!


I wonder if this will require desperate or really idiotic measures. Or both.


Well, I've had it! I don't care if it is stupid, I will just make a wish to...uhh...the sims 2 legacy gods, or something, to get my muse back!


Dear legacy gods or whatever, please, please, pretty please let me have my inspiration back. Love, Jo.


Any minute now...


Rats. It didn't work.


I have another idea...I'll listen to music all day long, maybe that will end up stimulating my brain and do the trick. Anna Calvi, Florence and the Machine, Scissor Sisters, Doctor Who soundtrack, Phantom of the Opera soundtrack, etc. - I'm counting on you!


Well...this is awkward...


Um...right...


It's not working, is it?
The only thing I managed to do was to make a fool of myself. Again.


This is kind of embarrassing, really...


So...yeah. The only thing I can actually do now is-


Dear ATOR Readers,
There will be a delay in the updating process of "A Touch of Randomness" due to technical difficulties. Apologies in advance!
I hope you all have a fantastic holiday season.
Love,
Jo

This will have to do for now...

And yes, I really am sorry for my incovenient case of writer's block. I hope this silly little photoshoot thingy amused you - at least it had the small advantage of having me try out new poseboxes that I had downloaded a while back.
You might have also noticed that my simself is still a teen, while in real life I am already (in the very beginning of) my twenties. Reason is simple: I am short. I am thin as a stick. I am kind of baby-faced. And I still look like a teenager - people who meet me for the first time always think I am 15-16 years old. (A bit depressing, guess that I will only be happy to hear those words when I reach my thirties!)

Merry Christmas to everyone, if I don't post again before then. :D

Aww *hugs* That was kind of funny though! Hehe. opps sorry. :P Seriously though for the most part I get inspired when I wash my hair and the rest of the time I sit there going urrrr???
I notice that that is a new simself. Is she up for download? My trouble has always been what to do with old simselves when newer better models come along - the used simself lot? I killed Jessies first simself off and felt bad about it ever since! If she is up for download I'll age her up though, adult simselves are just more useful.
Oh yes and trust me while the young thing does get very frustrating, you will appreciate it once you reach 30.

Merry Christmas Jo!

Bad luck for me then, I washed my hair yesterday and no luck from there. :/
Not yet, she is the same one for download along with the Randoms, except with shorter hair (like I have now) and winter clothes. I really should get her uploaded. There is that SimPE thing to give the old simself surgery so that they will look like the new one, but I don't know how it is done, you'd need to ask someone more qualified in the SimPE department. :)
It does, really. Wouldn't be that bad if I didn't have a sister (3 years younger) that has looked older than me since she was 12-13. She now looks 20 while I look 16. :S
Wishing the same to you and your whole family. :D
