Sims 3: Beginning
26 Sep 2010 Leave a Comment
Ta-da! I have The Sims 3. These are my first two characters…Amy and Maya. Everything is so much more advanced than Sims 2. Not just the “full world” thing, but the interactions with objects, buy mode, everything is just two steps up, it’s really cool. I had been wondering if, with all the advances, married Sims would cuddle up together. I don’t think they do deliberately…but they kinda look like it, don’t they?
Starting Over
01 Sep 2010 Leave a Comment
Right now, I am downloading a torrent of Sims 2 and all its expansion packs. Yes, I’m a file sharer. That’s not the point.
I started playing Sims 3 Mobile Edition on my Samsung Vibrant, and it made me want to get into Sims again. The first week of the new semester is probably a really bad time for this, but I’m going to play around anyway. I looked into downloading Sims 3, but not only is my laptop unlikely to play it properly (video card issues – I’m not sure it’ll even run Sims 2), but it’s more complicated than I’m used to. I like the “Wants” feature, because I’ve played with that on my phone, but the “Open World” feature seems a little intimidating. I would actually go back to Sims 1, because I’m more familiar with it, but I really like the family-building aspect of Sims 2, so that’s where I’m going to start.

Lainey Gets Electrocuted
25 Nov 2007 1 Comment
Jodie and Lainey got engaged the very next day after Jodie tried to move too fast! Within minutes after moving in, Lainey had accepted Jodie’s proposal. So they still haven’t made woo hoo, but at least they live together and they’re engaged. I was a little surprised that even though Lainey’s been in college for as long as Jodie, she’s still a freshman and still hasn’t declared her major. She wants to be a mad scientist, though, so she’s now majoring in mathematics.
Unfortunately, Lainey hasn’t learned much in the way of mechanical skills yet. So when the computer broke after she declared her major, Lainey had…well…a little accident. More

Must. Find. Job.

Arlen is having a real hard time finding a job. Of course it would help if he wasn’t so set on becoming a Mad Scientist…maybe he should just work as a slacker until he can land a science job. Then again, the family is plenty wealthy, he probably doesn’t even have to work!
Pillow Fight

The Bellingers have just moved into town, and what’s the first thing they do? Yup, start a pillow fight. This is Arlen Bellinger and his teenage daughter Jodie. His sister Sarah has already gone inside the house, sat down at the computer, and found herself a job in the tourism industry. Gee, who’s the responsible one in this family?
