I am alone at work today and SOOOOO uninspired to work. I was up til 1am finishing reading The Help. All I want to do is play FB games and manage personal life crap that I never get around to doing. I will feel UBER guilty though if I do not have all my work complete, so I best just hunker down and do it.

BTW, wrt FB games. ANyone else here who I have not already friended play the hidden object games, cause I need more neighbors/helpers/whathaveyou. Yes, this is my life, don't hate cause you jealous.

I was playing Sims Social on FB for a while but I was overwhelmed with the constant need for more neighbors. I've never done too many FB games. When I lived in China I was ALL ABOUT the social games on their social networking site because if you couldn't talk about Happy Farm you were more or less a social outcast.

I'll let you know if I get sucked back into Sims Social, though!

You don't need lots of neighbors for the hidden objects games (but they help.)

I have played Sims Social and I'm just kind of "eh" about it. I have enjoyed Adventure World a bit - it's got this great Indiana Jonesesque music and adventure.

Pot roast sounds better than Taco Salad to me right now, Sophia, but that might be because I haven't had breakfast yet.

The only hidden object one I play is Garden of Time. I tried the Manor House or Mystery House and never got the hang of it.

I also play Pioneer Trail and just got sucked into It Girl -- where you shop for clothes and go to parties and have showdowns with other players to see who looks the hottest.

Because of Pioneer Trail and It Girl I have added a ton of people I don't know to my friends list. I need to filter them.

Also I have Sims Social but I suck at it. I get tired of having to send my Sim to the bathroom.

This was me yesterday, except for The Help substitute Sarah's Key.

It's hard to get past a certain point on the hidden object games without either neighbors or throwing some money at it (or re-building everything every time you level up to get the maximum points for the space available)

Full disclosure: I played Gardens of Time once and have never been back, so I'm not really paying attention to the things you guys send me or ask me to give you.

My mom loved Sarah's Key, too, megan. Another one she keeps bugging me to read.

I had the Taco Salad, but mostly because I needed to leave my hallway for lunch. They are painting, and it is seriously exacerbating my cold. I was getting better yesterday, and today I have taken a turn for the worse. It is just a cold so far, but I need to be well for fittings this weekend.

I finally remembered my flickr account login info, so a brief revisit to the siblings-and-parents-resemblance thread.

Growing up, everyone always thought my sister and I were twins. However, my sister looks more like Mom and I look more like Dad. Can anyone explain that to me?

Here's Sis, Mom, and me in Tampa a few weeks ago: [link]

(And a slightly blurry pic of the three of us so you can see what the dress I had for the wedding looked like: [link]
