i did some research on how to do the modified 40s pageboy hairstyles that sS1 thru 3 and sort-of-S4 Scully wears and honestly those are some specific, time consuming steps. While in a Doyalist sense, A) it was the early 90s and professional women had to show up everywhere polished and styled to meet the ridiculously high bar social expectations for being well groomed enough to be "taken seriously" and big hair was, well, Big in the 80s/early 90s, and B) it was television and there were stylists and an updated 40s pulpy noir aesthetic they were creating.
But it does make me wonder in a Watsonian way about how careful or un-careful baby Scully was about letting Mulder see her in her rollers when he was showing up at the crack of dawn to drag her away on some new case 😆🥺💜

I must confess, my toxic trait is telling you I don’t have any time to make conversions and then spend hours playing the sims lmao
No for real, these last couple of days I felt the urge to play the sims, like I NEEDED it. I actually didn’t play at all for such a long time, because more than a year ago I decided to clean my game as it became impossible to play due to the amount of CC I had (more than 10.000).
So I converted everything to package and began to check every single piece of CC I had, one by one, to decide if I should keep it or not, make the files smaller by deleting useless swatches, fix what needed to be fixed etc...
And guess what ? It took sooo much more time than I thought (especially because I found a job in the meantime) and one year later I’m still not done, I have 2000 CC that are done and still have 900 to go (plus the ones I’ll have to download again and check as well 🙈)
I keep telling myself to finish that once and for all before doing conversions again but it just bothers me too much. And two days ago I decided to launch the game to decorate a building because I was missing it so badly ! But it’s so frustrating because I’ve only put like 200 CC in my game so it wouldn’t lag so I had to make it with that, and it’s not easy when I’m used to thousands and thousands of objects haha, the choice is pretty limited
Anyway, as I said a few weeks ago I won’t be able to convert stuff before I come back from my holidays in December, and then I’ll have to decide if I finish to clean my game first or if I share new stuff as I miss that too !
And there are sooo many beautiful TS4 stuff that I want to convert to add to my game and share with you all, that’s why I think maybe it’s a good idea to finish doing what I began before adding new CC over and over again ? Well we’ll see what the future brings haha !
Sorry for that really not interesting essay but I just wanted to write what was on my mind 🙈

this was one of my favourite rooms in the house to decorate! it’s very rare I play with babies / toddlers in my games, so I don’t get a lot of opportunities to decorate kids rooms - it was super fun!
(look how cute the wallpaper is?!🥹)

Two of Nova's paintings were water themed so I figured they'd be perfect for their bathroom
