Wait, what.

Hi, my name is Kelley, and I'm also a 23-year-old who is a recovering Sims addict. I have to agree with you on the "has to stop" thing... My question, however, is what the hell are 23-year-olds supposed to do if not live-blog our antisocial activities and make digital mock-ups of humans interact so we don't have to?

I was thinking last night, about why I like The Sims so much.

I hate most video games. I panic and then I die and then I throw the controller on the ground. I suck at them, and I hate them. I don’t like to play things that makes me even angrier and anxiety-ridden than I already am.

The Sims is about control. You create people, and then you make those people wash their dishes and raise a child. It’s just so neat and tidy. It’s like a stack of really nicely folded white towels, you know? The Sims is the video game version of some neatly folded white towels and that’s why I love it.

About Wait, what.

I'm really embarrassed about blogging. You would think I would quit this, but I can't. It's like that movie about that gay cowboy and that other gay cowboy and how they want to quit each other, but they can't. It's like that with me and my blog. We're just two metaphorical gay cowboys who don't have the ability to quit each other. Except my blog doesn't have the ability to quit me, so it's even more depressing. It's just me, one metaphorical gay cowboy, not being able to quit an inanimate object. I'm not gay and I'm not a cowboy, but I think you get what I mean. Heath Ledger was so hot in that movie. I write for a hip, cool site over at HelloGiggles because I am a hip, cool person. Just kidding. I don't know why they asked me to write for them. I'm also an LOL tag editor for Tumblr, so that is also a fact about me. You're welcome!

If you're into it, you can start by reading my posts about Mrs. Coco T, pleasure yourself to Super Close-Ups of Christopher Meloni, or really get to the root of how much of a mess I am by reading about Things That Shouldn't Give Me Anxiety, But Do. Or like, whatever. Just do whatever. I don't know how to do blogs. I don't know what you're here for.
