JUST DAYUM.

Well I finished A Rose In Winter last night. It ended with the big fight scene and Christopher dashed in and saved his lady, who then fought bravely by his side. The last chapter was Christopher and Erienne cuddling in bed and he tells her "I spent too much time fighting for you just to have to stay behind me. I want you always by my side, next to my heart." AWWWWW SUCH SWEET LAST LINES. I'd say that turned out to be a good book. Slow in the beginning, but picked up very well and had a lot of fighting and mystery and drama and juuuuust enough sexiness to fit. Now I need a new book :P

BUT HOLY SANTA CLAUS SHIT. MEDIEVAL SIMS IS AMAMAMAMAMAMAMAMAAAAAZING. I palyed a whole 10.5 hours today, and probably a good six or seven last night. This game rocks! I'm totally trolling it, though. I named the Bard character Tuomas because when you start out, your lowest rank is Troubadour... JUST LIKE THE SONG HE SINGS CALLED ONCE UPON A TROUBADOUR. And now he's a Minstrel, which means... PLAY FOR ME MINSTREL PLAY, AND TAAAAAAAAAAAKE AWAY OUR SORROWS like Blackmore's Night sings. I'm such a music/game troll. I always make the same kinds of Sims: pale skin, dark hair, dark eyes, bony face. My Knight is the only blonde. No gingers in my kingdom, unless you want to count Ara Grey, but she's got firetruck red hair and she's a Witch so it doesn't really count. I just made a lady Physician and I have an eccentric Priestess modeled after Anette and a piratey Merchant that bears a very close resemblance to Jukka.

I love this game so much. the quests were easy as a Monarch, but the Wizard and Merchant ones are tough. I just need to research the places a bit more before playing again. I REALLY WANT TO GET THE PIRATES AND NOBLES EP NOW. Speaking of love... these things are the most incredible things I've put in my mouth in a realllllly long time.



YEAH THEY'RE BUNNY SHAPED CHOCOLATE CHIP GRAHAMS. And they don't have a shitty cardboard taste either. These things taste so damn good for being whole wheat and organic and full of other goods. I CANNOT stop eating them... they're just so good! AND THE BOX IS COVERED IN BUNNIES. ADORABLE.

My back's hurting from sitting in this chair. Time to buy a new book and climb into bed.
