Wait. Hold on. You're telling me it's almost the end of April already? Okay... well. I've been busy loving Sims and Hogwarts Legacy, as usual. I went to see the Mario movie (🍑😆) with my bestie cousin and finally took the hour ride to visit her apartment and meet her cats (🐱❤️🐱). Here are some other favorites from this month!

Once Upon a Broken ( Read more... )

This has been a month of recovery and readjustment. I've been playing a lot of Sims 2 and Hogwarts Legacy. (I rode on a hippogriff for the first time, and it was glorious!) Continuing to enjoy Once Upon a Broken Heart when I'm in the mindspace for reading. Here are some other favorites!

Raging Loop: I started watching this visual novel and got ( Read more... )

In February, one of my closest friends got married. And though it was difficult - hadn't been to an event that large in 15 years - I was honored to be there to support her. This brought up many emotions. Memories. And yes, anxiety. But it was worth it. Self-care was essential during this process. Here are some favorites that helped me through ( Read more... )

We're already a month into 2023? Wow. Okay. Time to write a favorites post.

Except... well, I honestly don't have a lot of new stuff to talk about. Continuing a theme from last year, this month was mostly just about hanging with my besties and playing games with and for each other. I had several sim weddings. Watched most of Deus Ex: Mankind ( Read more... )

This year was about connection. Deep conversations. Multiplayer games. Obsessing over sim families. Streaming games for each other. I didn't read as much as I usually like to. I didn't write as much as I'd hoped. And I had far too many appointments. It was a busy year, in both wonderful and exhausting ways ( Read more... )

It's the end of the year. And I never could've predicted some of the twists and turns 2022 would bring. I'm both very grateful and very exhausted. Here are my December Favorites!

DefunctTV: After discovering the Disney Theme documentary, I watched many other Defunctland videos from the DefunctTV series. It's so interesting to see these TV shows ( Read more... )

Another month passes, and we're close to the end of the year. Why does it seem like every year goes by faster and faster? And yet, it feels like so much happened this month. A ton of Sims, a lot of fun gaming with besties, and even some writing! Here are my other November favorites ( Read more... )

This month was amazing. I met one of my best friends in person. I had a big wedding for my cousin's sims. And I felt supported and loved this month. Those things made the month, but these favorites added to it ( Read more... )

I spent a week with one of my best friends. After talking about it for 19 years of internet friendship, Shane (Vivi) came to visit me from all the way in BC, Canada. I was mildly terrified when he asked if he could visit. ("Well, Val, I made a life decision, and it involves you." 🤣) Because it had been a long time since I had a non-family friend ( Read more... )

This month was all over the place. And so are my favorites, so let's jump in ( Read more... )
