I've noticed when I look at my site stats that a lot of people come here looking for Sims skins... sorry, folks, none here... BUT... I can help you out with finding some...
Whether you use LJ or not, check out The Sims LJ Community... on the userinfo page, there are a TON of links... some are to pay sites, but a lot are free sites...
And for my favorite site, check out The Sims Resource... it is a pay site, but if you register, a small portion of the stuff is available for free... and it rotates every three days... so you may not have access to everything, but if you have some time to kill, and don't mind sifting through the pages of free stuff, you can find some good skins... got two of the Misfits from there, and a lot of cute gothy clothes... :)
There are some other good ones, but they don't update all that often... but, if you check out The B List, you can see what's been updated recently... and that makes searching for new things a LOT easier...
Though, honestly, I haven't really been keeping up on downloads lately... since I haven't been playing The Sims much... between watching wrestling, game (and related meetings), and HeroClix, all of my time after work is pretty much eaten up... :)

Monday Mission isn't up yet... I might catch it later... we shall see...
Had a generally good weekend... the highlight, aside from the movies, was that we got a few more boxes of HeroClix, and played a couple games of that... the conclusion: Cyclops is a bad, bad man... :) And playing with 2 big baddies against 5 or 6 little guys is a sure way to get the baddies killed off quick... :) But we now have a big piece of Lucite to go over the map! :) So that will make playing a whole lot easier!
As for movies, why yes, we watched a couple! :)
First one was "Comic Book Villians"... rather odd movie, but it was pretty funny... of course, there are two scenes that even a casual comic book reader/collector will practically cry about... one involves water, and the other involves fire... but that's all I want to say about that... :)
The other one was "The Cat's Meow"... and it was quite good! It's about the death of Thomas Ince, who was a 1920s movie mogul... the interesting part is that his death was at least allegedly related to his birthday weekend on William Randolph Hearst's boat... so you get to learn a lot about Hearst, and some of the other people that were on this trip... like Charlie Chaplin (played by Eddie Izzard... :) )... at any rate, it's a very good movie, and I highly recommend it... :)

Movie to go out and rent: "Donnie Darko"
We watched it on Sunday night, and it was awesome! :) If you ever want to play a schizophrenic Malkavian, this could be a useful start to your preparations... definitely worth watching, regardless of your character intentions...
So let's see... weekend recap...
Friday night we ended up playing HeroClix, which was a lot of fun... for those who haven't heard of it, it's basically a miniatures game, where the miniatures are based on Marvel (or DC) comic characters... you get to pick characters to use based on their points (and everyone starts with the same number of points)... so I had Jean Grey, Scarlet Witch, and Wolfsbane... except that I had the Rookie Jean Grey, so that she didn't even have Telekinesis... hell, she didn't have any special powers at all! Still, though, I had fun with it... :) Then on Saturday, we of course had to go get some HeroClix of our own... :) We're up to 36 of them now... :)
Saturday game was pretty kewl... MUCH better than last week, though the repercussions may end up sucking greatly... *sigh*... but I'll get over it, I'm sure... :)
Sunday was basically a day for sleeping late, and doing nothing... which was nice... and then I was off yesterday, which was also nice... :) Wrestling was typical, but made good background noise for chit-chat and looking at HeroClix... and then Gabe got to make his character for Karac's Marvel game, which plays tonight... his character ended up pretty kewl, I think... :) Even though I don't know Marvel all that well, I was at least able to give him a couple of ideas... :)
