Hey, not nearly as crabby, but Monday left me with a cold. Not a cold bad enough to keep me home or anything. Just one to annoy me. It’s great. Makes me dim. I tried three or four times to write a blog post yesterday, but kept ending up with “blah.” So I’ve mostly been working on a blog design for someone.
Dim, however, is the perfect state to be in when one is playing the sims. Whenever I am feeling dim, I like to create sim families. I’m still looking for “the one.” Usually, I end up with a sim I like the best, and I concentrate on her and her life. Yes, it’s usually a female sim. I had a sim tragedy a couple of weeks ago. I lost everything. All my sims. Including Coral, who was my “one.” So I am rebuilding. Creating lots of sims, still looking for the inspiration. Yesterday I created Oscar. Poor Oscar, he recently lost his wife in a drowning accident. No, I did not kill her this time. It’s pre-story. I’ve killed before, but not in the Sims2, since you can simply move someone out to get rid of them. Anyway, Oscar has two tempestuous teenage daughters, Rose and Daisy. His hands are full. He, currently, is following a career in law enforcement, because it makes the most money right away. And he’s all about the success and money. As is his daughter, Daisy, which is why she took an after school job… in CRIME! duh-duh-DUH! Oh the drama. Rose is more concerned about learning and knowledge. She wants to get into private school, if she has to drag Daisy with her kicking and screaming. Will she be successful? Should she potentially sacrifice grades for the chance to enter into the science field with an after school job? Or should she pursue medicine? Will Daisy stay in crime after she graduates, or make the natural progression into politics? What about Oscar, is he going to be alone forever? Can he get over the loss of his nameless, yet soggy, wife and find new love? Who knows? I haven’t made it up yet.
