Worst break ever...

[strangetomato]

So, despite being completely unfocused on writing lately, I've found some renewed interest in my sims. I had some time to play the game today (as all of my silly posts attest) and now I'm very excited to move forward with the story, especially where Frances is concerned.

Sorry to spoil so much here, but I'm just so excited for him.

This is, indeed, a romantic moment for Frances (and double spoiler on the new hairdo, but you surely saw that coming). The cafeteria worker is a peeping tom. *snort* How many times will I crack up at that framing hands animation? Surely, a billion times.



I'm still a little out of it where writing is concerned, but I'm thinking that I might be able to get an update moving sometime near the end of the week. I know I must seem a bit crazy lately, but thanks for putting up with me. I really appreciate all of you being there for me, even if it's just the impersonal internet. I feel lucky to have this right now.

Man, I'm so excited... I want to just spilled the beans right now, but I'll have to wait. You'll see it coming a mile away, though, I'm sure. :P

Frances rules with his new 'do. He seems so much more confident (and a lot more like Rufus Wainwright, but that's only natural. ;D I plan to push the resemblance.)

Seriously, check this out:

Very Worthingtonesque, don't you think? He plays the piano too. ;) Very beautifully, I might add. *loves Rufus Wainwright too*

*also loves Leonard Cohen*

Never trust those cafeteria workers. They're mega creepy.

This is the album version, and it's much clearer, but there's no visual to go with it.

I think I've pretty much connected Frances and Rufus in my mind, but I have no problem with that. They're pretty similar, really.

Whoa, that is quite a resemblance there. :D

I know. Isn't it? I first noticed it way back when he first turned up in madame_ugly's Peculiar. Someone else mentioned it in my comments since then, so it can't just be me. He really has similar lips, chin area, and even the nose (it really has the same upturned angle and bridge bump). He wears the sideburns like him too. It's a pretty good likeness, I think.

Here are a couple of other good examples:
