Sims Random Musings 7-6-2013

One day not too long ago I'm listening to the radio, because I'm old school like that and this song comes on which is what happens sometimes on the radio.  It sounded familiar but I wasn't sure why.

 Where do I know this song from?

Then I realized it was from The Sims.  Have to say that I never thought I'd find new songs to like from a video game.  Though, video games really do have great music and The Sims has been using real songs in their games for a long time.

But it really is odd to come across something in my daily life and know I've seen or heard it before but can't quite place where or why.  It's just so freaky when I realize it's from The Sims.

This also makes me realize that I haven't played enough lately.  Hopefully this week will change that.  I'm  VA-CAY!!!  HOLLLAAAA!!!  Isla Paradiso here I come!

Go 4th and Sim!

Happy 4th of July!

Or Happy Wednesday to everyone outside the USA!

On this holiday be sure to follow

safety precautions when setting off fireworks!

Yeah, this one is pretty lame by my standards but sadly I didn't have much time to put something super spectacular together.

Go 4th and Sim!

Real People DO Win!!!

So last week or so I threw my name into the running for a random giveaway from The Sims 3 on Twitter and...I WON!!!!!

 Exhibit 1: Note the third name.  Sim Acres.   That is me.

Exhibit 2: Actual photo taken with my own camera in my own home.

I now own these things and they are in my possession. 

Exhibit 3: Badge I just made to show off my winning.

As a real person and a proud Simmer, I can actually say that in fact, yes, real people do win things from The Sims!  So go ahead and enter and you just may be a real winner too!

Go 4th and Sim!!

Random Picture Thursday

Just adding this because my views of this page were at 666 and just no.

Dirty dirty ghost!

Go 4th and Sim!

Happy Father's Day!

Salute to Dads!

For making sure we were at least in the right room for sleeping.

Just for knowing that boy was trouble before we did.

For giving us the appreciation of good music

before we knew what good music was.

And just for being one half of the pair

responsible for bringing us into the world

(and the house)!

Happy Father's Day to all the dads near and far, dad-substitutes, new dads, old dads and any one else that falls in a dad or dad-like category!

Random Picture Thursday

Throwback Thursday!  I guess that's supposed to mean something but whatevs. Leisure Suit Larry found his way (along with his buddys Duke Nukem and Joanna Dark, star of Perfect Dark) to Sunset Valley and here he is out on the town.

 At a disco, of course.

And on a date with woman he met online.  Asking her for her sign, of course.

It's probably "Stop".

Here's the happy family at home playing video games, of course.

Might do more with these crazy kids because they've been pretty fun to play.  Especially since I've also located them in Lucky Palms.

Go 4th and Sim!
