It's another vamp post!
Jun. 4th, 2009 11:07 pmSomeone posted on MATY asking if it would be possible to create vampires like the ones in *Twilight*--sparkling, don't burn up in the sunlight, all that stuff. Well, of course, a Maxis vampire is going to have most of those vampire characteristics, like smoking in the sunlight and stalking with their arm over their face and saying "Blehhh!! The sun!!! I must flee!!!" With the exception of biting everyone in sight, I like those characteristics, but I still thought it was an interesting question, and of course. . .
Ulysses, this means you must become a sparklepire again.

Toddler pix

( Oh, sure you do. )
Penelope and Dinadan had their third, and it's a boy, so I'm still trying to figure out what to do. I'm leaning towards waiting a few days and letting the two eldest enjoy their grandparents, now that they've all actually become friends. And then I will probably let Jack and Sophia move out. They won't have to die, and that will free up two more chances for a girl, so it's a win-win. If they *still* don't have a girl, then I'll be able to send the oldest two to college, and keep trying, but let's hope it doesn't come to that. ARGH. You can see why I like playing Achilles and Ulysses. It's a nice break.

Happy birthday. . .
Oct. 27th, 2008 10:35 pm. . .to all of us who are October babies, including DocNerd, the Almighty Robinoli, and me (Halloween.) For all of us, and especially for Robin (because I think she will like it) I am posting this picture of Ulysses.

Happy birthday to us from a toymaking, lightbulb-hat-wearing teen vampire in a pirate outfit.
