Life is good
Success! I think.
I ended up having to extract Riverview into what seems like a billion .package files and inserted them into my Mods folder. A quick check told me that Riverview is back as it should be, no weird names for lots, no weird numbered description, everything is as it should be. Now I'm wondering if I should just go and run it through the Compressorizor and then make a .dbc file of it all... It's supposed to speed things up apparently but truthfully I didn't notice much of a lag... But then, I don't have hundreds of .package files like some people either...
Ah, well, whatever, I'm just happy it seems to work again and that everything seems fine. I have yet to play any of my old saves or even a new game -- just looked around checking to make sure everything that was wrong looked as it should.
Today has been a very productive day though! I fixed our Charter online account so I could actually access it for once. It only took me about...three years to actually do it. But Kent wanted to watch live curling so I went and got access again. And I don't blame him -- curling is surprisingly strategic and fun to watch! I mean, one minute it's like midnight and you're flipping through the channels and you land on either MSNB or CNBC and curling's on. And the next thing you know, you've spent the last couple of hours watching.
Also, today, I made quick run to the supermarket and bought myself some vanilla ice cream, heavy whipping cream and a pound of sharp cheddar cheese. Also, GIRL SCOUT COOKIES.
I have been stalking the Girl Scout cookies website for MONTHS trying to figure out when my local troop(s) will be selling these delectable morsels. And finally, I found out they were going to be at Safeway this weekend and next (just in case I eat it all now and cave and must get more) so I went and bought myself three boxes.
I was showing restraint, I really was. But at $4 a box, ouch. They were cheaper in NYC (marginally, but still a little cheaper)! Anyway, I had the greatest idea -- mix the Samoas cookies I bought with the carton of Dreyer's Samaos Ice Cream I bought that already had Samoas cookies broken up in it! Brilliant, no?
The vanilla ice cream I bought is for am impending batch of apple crisps/crumble that I'm planning to make and the cream and cheese are both for scones! Regular scones and cheese scones! I still have that tiny jar of Double Devon Cream (the closest thing I could find to clotted cream T_T) and another jar of jam just waiting for an afternoon tea. ^^
Oh! Maybe I should add the apple crisp on to the snack as well! Have it all in one go. Although, I don't think they mix well... :\
And I'm excited about tonight! B&S returns!!! Double hurrah! And the Amazing Race! TV is back, once again! *huge sigh*
Life is good today. ^^
