I tend to do other things when I'm thinking through an update. Focusing on something else usually sparks an idea or two when I am not trying too hard. Focusing on these mosaics was a little more distracting than I expected but I like how they came out. At Beth's encouragement to post them instead of sneaking them into bios, I thought why not? Maybe I will do character studies down the road.

Sessions Update Lady So Divine. Sorry this announcement isn't more interesting; I'm out of creativity for the day. Thank you, Beth, for taking the shots. They are gorgeous!
Be sure to check out Blade's bio.

I Spy
X-Posted at LJ since I don't know if anyone reads here
Actually it is more like I Seek...
What I am looking for is some decent athletic (workout) outfits and undies for men. Particularly workout clothes. What I have is either shoeless due to sexy feet borking the Maxis meshes, is old and crappy looking, or has odd shadows on the legs that make my sim men look like they forgot to bathe or have an exotic disease. I looked on MTS and...meh. I really don't know where else to try. There is always a ton for women but not for men so please point me to a good place to look?

Riding Out the Storm

This piece has gone through all kinds of interesting twists and turns. It is a little longer than some of the more recent posts we have done but it definitely works.
Thanks so much for your patience while we worked this chapter out. There is a new sense of direction that came out of it and a certain muse decided to get off his ass and help with the creative process (he has no problem voicing his displeasure but would he lift a finger to help get us out of the mud until now? NO!) A little incentive is always a good thing...
Anyway, link is here -> Sessions 36 - Some Voices

Spinning Wheels

We are trying slowly to find a plot among all the fragments we have. It isn't working yet but we're thinking it through.
Thought I might throw up a shot of Julia and Gemma side by side (sort of) for those curious. Dug into the deep freeze and yanked Julia out so I could get a shot. They look the same and yet subtly different from each other. Might be the difference in personalities. I never really got into Julia's when she was alive. Maybe I can do a bio on her and bring some of that to light although I have no idea why. During the last couple of weeks I did manage to start mosaics and bios on a few people. They are still in the editing stages so I haven't posted them.
I don't know what I'm doing right now. Broken down on the side of the road without a map or GPS. Slippery slope and I just don't know which direction is best.

Announcement and Small Update
Sessions will be on a temporary hiatus. No explanation needed I'm sure. Thanks for your understanding.
I did put up a small update at Intermezzo, a continuation of Randi's encounter with her cowboy. Those interested can access it here:

Chameleon Update at Long Last

Trying to get this posted has been challenging to say the least. It has been written for months but I had neighborhood issues that kept me from shooting it. Still do in the form of game crashes but I managed to thankfully squeeze it out.
Apologizing again for a lack of comments. I have read them, believe me, I just haven't managed to leave a response. But I will, I promise.

Turning Point

Should have posted this yesterday...I meant to...
Had I known then what I know now about creating Sims in Body Shop this would be a better likeness. I no longer feel that compelling need to recreate him and beat myself up over loss. Most likely this will be my final post on the subject. I did make a cherry pie last night since that is what he preferred instead of birthday cake.
Today would have normally found me spontaneously crying, overly emotional and sensitive, buried away somewhere dark. The loss, the emptiness is still there but it no longer consumes. I think that is a good thing, either that or I am beyond numb at this point. I prefer to think it is acceptance. I never remember the steps of grief and loss but I must have reached the last one. Sometimes it take awhile if you hang onto it too long trying to examine every facet.
I slept most of the day away so that certainly helped. Is it wrong that I didn't feel that pull? I'm thinking not.

In Perfect Harmony
In June of 2007 I posted my first chapter of Dark December. Since that time, the story has evolved and changed in part through a collaboration that developed and lasted over 4 years. During this time a friendship was forged. Thank you Beth, for unwavering friendship, support, and generosity over these last 4+ years. It has been a journey I will never forget.
