I broke a chair today.

ayashiYes. Today I sat in a chair and for the first time in my life... it broke! It wasn't a sissy break either. It split right down the middle in the seat (from front to back) and the middle bar between the legs broke.
I wasn't hurt at all and in fact afterward began to laugh hysterically. I was so shocked! And the glass of milk I was holding when I sat down was barely disturbed (I spilled maybe 3 drops, but most of the milk was somehow still inside the glass - no idea how I didn't drop it).
Yes, little 130 pound me broke a chair :( rofl... I didn't even get to really put all my weight on the chair - I think my butt had contact with the chair for a tenth of a second before the whole thing just crashed down. It was really funny though... we were at Jared's for dinner and... it just happened!
Anyway I'm going to go do some important work now. I'm glad I wasn't hurt... and it was funny. At first Jared thought it was the chair that he asked his dad to fix that had broken, but in fact it was that chair's twin which was not broken at all before I sat in it. Apparently those chairs suck! The break was SO smooth and clean too... it didn't look like a random break at all. Maybe I was set up! (gasp)
I started a Sims challenge today that Veela mentioned (well I didn't really start it but I made my "family"). Looks much shorter than the Legacy challenge but still difficult. Mini Challenge: Asylum
Every character I made for it was a woman (all-female asylum!) and I already gave them all weird issues and stuff. It was really fun making them all :D My main girl is a pleasure aspiration which is probably my least favorite one (I have a really hard time keeping them happy with dates and stuff, and she isn't allowed to go Downtown in this challenge), but hopefully she'll have a fun lifetime want.

Hmmm..

That was bizarre, he was "the fat kid", but he couldn't have weighed more than 150lbs. And I'm more than that and a swing can still hold me, especially those heavy duty rubber ones that have on school playgrounds. Reminds me of that :]
