To Tumblr or Not to Tumblr...

To Tumblr or Not to Tumblr...  that is the question of the moment.  I've been considering moving my blogging efforts over to tumblr but I'm not sure about it yet...  I think I'm going to try it out over there for a few weeks and see how I like it before I make up my mind.  I couldn't get an account registered with bloodviolet so I had to go with my alternate name blackpaura ; it's here but I've only made like 3 posts so far messing around with it.

All Through the Night by Connie Brockway

All Through the Night by Connie Brockway
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

I had the Audible audio book edition of this book.  Let me first say it was sort of hard to judge some parts of the book because I kept getting distracted by the narrator.  She was fine doing the female voices but when she was trying to do the sexy male voice it just threw the story for me.  I though it varied from inappropriate to just creepy sounding.  Yeah, no.

I liked the idea of female thief prowling the streets of Regency London while be pursued by the secret service agent, but it just didn't deliver as much excitement as I was craving.  It turned out to be a pretty standard issue  historical romance.  I thought it was a good read but not a keeper for me.

Sims 3 Recolors

Well, here are some odds and ends -- left-overs from my July color pallet on the far right there...  That's the t-shirt from the free set they just released, base game jeans, shoes and animal ears from the store.

The other three sims are dressed in colors I've chosen for my August color pallet.  I'm pretty fond of those shades of green and that golden-orange...

I'm thinking maybe I should try installing the Into the Future pack again and try out those display pedestals again.  my first attempts at making a dress shop were pretty frustrating to say the least.

Here's my studio if you want to download them.

The Sims 4 Rewards

Well, I received another promo for the Sims 4 today.  Apparently if I choose to purchase and register Sims 4 I can get a colorful assortment of plumbob statues and an truly ugly llama / freezer bunny / plumbob thing....  I just don't think that's going to be enough incentive for me to crack out my wallet to the tune of $79.96... that's the current price listing on Amazon for The Sims 4 Premium Edition.  Sorry, but there are just too many other games I'm interested in picking up at the moment; and I can buy most of those for under $20 each.  I'm waiting for a massive price drop.
