AC: That thought may have indeed crossed the event horizon of my brain and gotten sucked deep down into its murky depths.
AC: But alas, not much is up. Recovering from an arm injury, blah blah, I can still use my hands so it's not like my typing's been compromised or anything. What about you?

MP: ah, that sounds like a real bummer
MP: having an injured hand that is,
MP: but i bet a miraculous full recovery of your hand may be well underway : D
MP: and not much has been up with me lately too
MP: other than my mother trying to get me out of the house to join her in yet another one of her sporting events
MP: but i'd pass on that

AC: What sort of sporting event? I am certain your mother means the best for you, it is not all parents that can make time for their children in such a manner.

MP: i'm well aware of my mother's good intentions
MP: and it's just a little ball game internationally known as football
MP: which i guess is much more known as soccer here in America :/
MP: why is it called that anyway?
MP: soccer i mean.
MP: but i digress, the thing is
MP: i'm not that big of a sports person
MP: i can't run a 100m to save my life
MP: that's what i think

AC: Perhaps you should start small? Inquire that your mom accompany you on short jogs around the park?

MP: ahaha..
MP: oh, i'm all but sure that if my life were indeed on the line
MP: those leaves would fall away and yet be caught by whatever metaphorical, i would assume monstrosity, that would be chasing me and putting my life on said line at the point of time
MP: and i would love to
MP: if only she had the time of day
MP: the only times i do get to speak to her is when she talks to me first
MP: otherwise, she'd be whizzing off from one place to another
MP: pictured: the tasmanian devil
MP: from the cartoons that is

CC: Hmmm, quite a conundrum you present!
CC: Still, I wonder, would it not be best if you accompany your mother? As opposed to pester me? Grateful as I am to the distraction, the bond between parent and child is one of great preciousness.

MP: i do appreciate the sentiment of trying to bring me and my mother a little of closer together MP: but i'd still prefer to stay inside MP: at least for the time being MP: i'm still not so sure about facing the human race just this moment MP: besides, there's this new game beta coming out MP: and i'm not leaving the house until it arrives MP: which must sound very strange |

AC: I fear that I am becoming a bit of a bitter nag holed up here and waiting for my arm to recuperate, I am usually more cheerful, I promise!
AC: What is this game about? It sounds interesting!

MP: boredom can be a real drag i'm sure
MP: perhaps you could find a way to pass the time by doing some less strenuous activity
MP: like reading a book : )
MP: and it's a game i recently read up on in this game magazine
MP: and also heard up from friends through the internet
MP: i suppose it's like a save the world from destruction kind of online game?
MP: but also a little bit like Sims?
MP: i'm not very sure, it didn't get a very high rating from it's reviewer
MP: but i suppose it's worth giving a shot

AC: This games sounds most intriguing. I believe I have played the Sims game, it is the one where you are in charge of a city or a neighborhood, and must direct its people, no?
AC: Having them save the world from destruction sounds like an intriguing step up.
AC: What is the name of this game if you do not mind me asking?

MP: that would be the one
MP: but i don't think this allows you to kill any of the people in it
MP: except for the bad guys I'm sure
MP: but they didn't specify what kind of bad guys you're meant to be fighting either
MP: and i think it's supposed to be YOU who save the world
MP: and not the people you create
MP: which doesn't seem like the usual kind of Sims game to me
MP: The title of the game is "SBURB"

AC: However, I admit, I am a little confused by the meaning of your words... 'you' save the world? As in your player character? Would that not contradict the entire gameplay mechanic of the SIMS?
