T-T oh how I wish I had been able to give myself a monthly hobby budget. A local yarn shop is hosting a sweater yarn dyeing workshop- 5 skeins for $125 CAD, extra skeins $25/per. It's cheaper than their in-house-dyed yarn! AND they still have room!

But alas, I have already pre-spent my birthday, xmas, AND my hubby's birthday budget (with his blessing) plus some of our expected tax return money on Hozier in August.

Plus groceries are going up so our wiggle room is gone. Over $1K CAD a month to feed a family of four! $75 is ordering out ONCE. And we do NOT buy brand names, fancy foods, or meat that's not on sale.

I really hope it happens again next year or something when I might be able to scrounge up some extra cash or I finally find a second job.

It still kinda bugs me that the Warrior of Light was straight up POISONED and DRUGGED at Falcon's Nest and literally no one gave a shit, Thancred acts like you decided to take a nap on the floor on purpose and speaks to you rather disdainfully when he wakes you up and like. Bruh??? Yeah I know there were other things going on but the fact that not a single person cared is just. UGGHHH. WoL deserved better than that

-->And with that, it was finally off to Van Liddelton Groceries once more! Alice got to open the place up this time, though first, I had her set the prices to “Sale” (aka 15% markup) down from the regular 25% markup. Why? Because they DO NOT need the money, and I wanted to see if stuff would sell faster if it was a little cheaper. She then got sent to have some zoomies to deal with her slowly-growing Fury (no wolfing out at work!) while Victor bunked down for a nap in the break room and Smiler went out to handle the sales floor (after consulting their future cube for advice, since I wanted them to do something while waiting for customers – “the cube abides,” apparently)! Amusingly, the very first Sim to show up for the day was L. Faba – guess she was tired of Morgyn getting all the attention whenever the gang visited the Magic Realm. XD (Which reminds me, I really gotta bind Victor’s dragon familiar to him already...) Anyway, after a bit of lag, Smiler was able to let off one of their patented vampiric happiness bursts for the incoming customers and chat with Catarina Lynx for a bit to try and convince her to buy stuff –

-->And then Alice came back, and I decided that I wanted her to make some more food downstairs rather than force her to chat with customers. A decision that led to me transferring $40,000 of their household funds over to the store so I could upgrade the downstairs kitchen area with the best Schmapple fridges and ovens, and add a counter by the corner so I could put in a stand mixer, a waffle iron, and a pizza oven! All in the blue swatches, since I thought those looked nice. :) I then had Alice use the bulk food processors from Simsonian Library to process some potato flour so she could whip up a batch of dough –

-->Aaand suddenly EVERYONE WAS BUYING SHIT. Yeah, apparently cheaper prices DO encourage more sales. I quickly had Alice run up there to help Smiler with the initial rush (since Victor was still working on taking care of his needs) – Catarina picked up a loaf of cheesy bread for $71; Christen a jar of blueberry jam for $80; and Janae a small mushroom for $5. We got a brief break while some of the customers got distracted by the sight of celebrity Brytani Cho in the store (long enough for Victor to get up and go to the bathroom), but after that and another annoying case of lag, the sales started coming again, with Bella Goth grabbing a box of dried sage for $413, and L. Faba getting a box of cheese for $621. I took a moment to check downstairs and saw that Alice’s dough was ready, so I had her go downstairs and grab that –

Aaand got an LE as she did so. However, that was shortly followed by customer Olivia grabbing an avocado from the produce fridges/warming racks, so I think the LE was actually related to that – specifically, to my Brazen Lotus stuff. Meh. At least I'm pretty sure I know what it is (the game doesn’t have a proper animation to play if a Sim is getting a normally-not-allowed-in-produce-fridges item out of a produce fridge, so it goes “hey”) and that it’s not TOO game-breaking!

this past few weeks like 4 or 5 ppl told me at various times that i should relax more/take it easy more or in general take life less seriously... perhaps everyone is trying to tell me something...

oh SHIT gays i just found 11$ in me pocket

[greetingsfromuranus]

ok my game is gonna be like the sims x tomodachi life x petz, its gonna have a really detailed character creator and you can share your creations online so anyone can download them, its gonna have sims-esque behavior editor but i need to play the sims first to get a better idea of how it works, the characters you add to your little world are just gonna run around like they do in petz, and its gonna have animal crossing type graphics, think n64 but slightly higher poly count than most games. most of it is gonna be from the characters because this may kanker model is already a solid 1100 polygons and thats pretty high for what im goin for

also they can get killed and die but they come back the next day. ill add a "plot armor" slider when youre creating a character so you can decide if they can die or not (you can also put the slider in the negative direction making them die and come back multiple times a day)

secondhand bookshops rule so hard esp my fav one in town. there are such specific sections for everything. in the scifi shelves theyve organized things by space sci-fi, sea sci-fi, dystopia etc. there's a paranormal romance section in the romance section. they have 3 shelves longer than i am tall dedicated to the star trek novelizations organized by series and 3 under that dedicated to dragonlance books. i went to look at their craft section and they had subsections for eras and styles of embroidery. i can look for motorsport books by series or manufacturer without coming across top gear books or car manuals, which have their own sections. i can find poetry by nz poets in their own bookcase and books by māori authors all over the shop because they've been marked by a specific tag on the binding.

Guess who showed so much self restraint while buying food. Why did they suddenly have pkmn mugs I wanted to buy that 3d eevee one so badly. It was a big one too!! Perfect for my caffeine addiction I need more big ones. I already bought okami merch recently for too much since I couldn't believe I found them in the wild (finally having an okami shirt and amaterasu plushie was worth it but hnnn I should watch it more).

there were sooooooooo many records i could have bought while i was burning time at the antique store today and yet i didnt. so thats called restraint
