to-do list, COMMUNITIES, the sims

[nanslice]

Jeep is fixed! I'm cautiously optimistic, just because that's who I am. I'll drive to work this morning and see how it goes but gosh, fingers crossed, guys. The jeep is not okay, I tried to drive to work and it started leaking all of the power steering fluid I put in it. So it's going to the car doctor on Monday. :\

Things I'm working on in the immediate

fan_flashworks is doing an Amnesty challenge and one of the previous prompts is 'photo.' I'm working on a fanart piece for that for a fandom where photos and selfies definitely come into play. :>

The current prompt for 100words is 'bliss' and I'm sure I can write something for that.

...it's a small list but I'm going into my final week of classes so I don't want to try to add too much here lmao.

DW has gotten quite a bit more activity lately but that doesn't always translate to community activity so I broke the ice and made the first post at over at yurionicefans with my work. Related, ffxv! I never bothered looking for a community when this game came out but this one was created about a week ago. I don't really have anything to share over there but hopefully I will soon. :) Also, steveandbucky is also a thing (that I never searched for before) and I have, like, plenty to share there (and also here! Most of my art/fic was posted directly to tumblr and AO3, never here).

I was talking with imperion last night; she's made a simblr and was talking about that fandom and while I certainly don't want to create a tumblr for my sims, I'm a little interested in sharing photos/stories here. :3 Or possibly creating a new journal for it, although frankly I'm terrible at keeping up with multiple journals, haha.

Thank you for the link to the steveandbucky community! I don't really have anything to contribute, but I'll gladly read in it. :)

Sorry about your car trouble! Good luck getting everything going again.

You're welcome! There's nothing there yet but maybe some interest can be drummed up. :3

Ugh, I'm constantly topping off the power steering fluid in the van because it has a slow leak (that and the automatic transmission), but as soon as I have some extra cash, we're off to the garage. Hopefully the jeep can be brought around to full health very quickly!

[nanslice]

It's so frustrating. I'm sure nothing bad will happen if I drive it as is but it's making this terrible whining sound and the steering wheel shakes and it scares me, haha.

[praxedes_osaka]

We've nicknamed the van "Moaning Myrtle" because she makes the most awful groaning when she needs more fluid. It's certainly an upper-body workout to steer her when the fluid's too low! XD

Oh no! Fingers crossed that the jeep doesn't take too much to fix

[nanslice]

Yeah. I'm hoping it's not too expensive. The guy that works on our cars is very honest but still, if there's a lot of parts that need to be replaced....:(

Sorry to hear that your jeep is still not working. That sounds really frustrating.

I admire how much you have going in fandom.

[nanslice]

Hopefully it'll be fixed today!

Thanks. XD I don't have enough time to really delve into fandom the way that I used to (and probably I don't have the inclination either tbh) but I've been stuck at home going on five days now so I've had extra time. XD

Fandom is a great way to fill empty time.
