    Aw, I'm gonna miss the beginning, then. :( But I'll try to get myself to show up later.

    Not much has happened yet....
    We got a cat! We got TWO! And then the Cat Lady came by in the Welcome Wagon! And Kar and Xan welcomed her! (CT was off on the docks adopting cats! :)

    So we haven't really sat around to talk yet...

    And I recolored all the furniture! We've got a beautiful house by @theKalin0Tron ! I love her houses.... she tends to use neutral palettes--I love COLOR! So I always use the swatch tool to recolor everything first off.... now it looks really great for us! So, anyway, this is a long ramble to say that uploading this weekend is in plenty of time!

    @superkyle221 I'll grab your SimSelf tomorrow!

    Plus anyone else who wants to come...

    Plus I need your Origin ID, @For_Eorzea !
    You'll love the kedike! Cookie and Chester! :)

    Oh, awesome! I should check the house out! And my ID is Saaruzka. I didn't have the time to go to the Gallery and check, but if my simself has the very blonde hair, I would like to have it changed to the golden one. Neither really look like mine,but nor do the brown ones. It's something in the middle, with more gold than brown. (And, I am a teen. If you want to change it because school inconveniences could hinder the gameplay, feel free to age the simself up, though it is a little weird since I am kinda short in reality. :smile: )

    I do wish we could apply height to Sims. I'm 4'9" and also feel like I should leave my sim in teen mode.

    One hundred and sixty centimeters here. Yey. And I highly doubt my chances of having a growth spurt.

    @RipuAncestor Guess what? I lied. As far as I'm concerned, I am around the same height as you! A lie slightly below half a centimetre long, but still. Bad Eorz. The ego boost was totally worth it, tho.

    The underrestimation part is true, but... Headpats. And "you're adorable, how old are you?" Aaand the cookie jar always kept in sky-reaching heights.

    Those are annoyances, yes... buuut all of one's life standing on tippy-toes to reach stuff does have the benefit of helping one gain excellent calf-muscles. :)

    Hmm.... should we be suspicious that so many under 5'4" folk are supernaturally interested in extra-Ts? Inquiring minds...

    Worry not, @CathyTea! There's naught of concern afoot. We're too short to be stormtroopers.
  • CyazuraiCyazurai Posts: 1,284 Member
    Just popping in to be amazed that everyone that's spoken up is short, because I am short as well. Somewhere around 5'4"... I think.
    And I would throw my simself in to the fray for the tea thing, but I want to update her, but I want to wait until after I get Cats and Dogs to update her! Which will be after Christmas. So if there's still tea parties happening after that, I'll think about offering her up. c:
    I believe something's can't be explained

    Hello all,

    I'm back with the next chapter of my alien adoption challenge - it's actually a brief interlude from the action as we spring forward in time. Enjoy!

    Magnolia puts her talents to use in order to break through to Blossom in chapter 9!

    While editing this chapter I realized how quickly chapter 9 snuck up on me! I honestly feel like I'm on chapter 3 or 4. I didn't expect communication to be this big of an issue but it really is a major hurtle...

    You're catching up to my pace. Quickly. :smile:

    Yeah, communication was a big issue for me too... which made it tricky when Wendy had absolutely no desire to learn the language. I like your solution! Much more practical!

    Hello! I am 5’7.5”. Would it still be okay for me to join? I can reach up to high places for you guys! :)

    Seriously though - would it be okay? It would be a while still - I have pen pal letters to finish first.
    Sometimes the darkness and I tell stories.
