My sims just had the weirdest night ever!
Regina:
And I'm exhausted from it!
This family (my Legacy family, of all things) just had the most bizarre time I've seen in a sim household and believe me, I've seen some bizarre times.
The family consists of Alistair, a knowledge dad; Amy, a family mom; Leo, a romance roomie; Bianca the child daughter; Braun, the toddler son; and now, ummm I'm not so sure of his name yet--for the moment it's Berry Green, the new alien baby.
When Leo isn't babysitting or cleaning house, he spends his time romancing the ladies. He was up to four loves when he decided he needed to pursue a fifth. His four other ladies are the Diva, a vampire, a waitress from the restaurant, and a family Downtownie. He decided to take Breanna out to dinner. The evening got off to a great start and he found that it didn't matter whether they had anything in common or not, they could communicate with love and decided to dine. Well, his waitress girlfriend happened to be on shift that night and she came to the table to take their order and OOPS! Here her beloved Leo was cheating on her! Now never mind the fact she's a Romance sim too and would do the same thing given the chance! So, she decides she's going to slap Leo around a bit and finally Leo runs off with Breanna to the neighborhood spa.
Finally, Leo comes home and it's time to get everyone to bed for the night (I need my sims to sleep worse than they need to sleep LOL). This is also the night before Alistair is going to give birth to his alien baby. So, everyone's tucked in for the night when I see movement out on the front stoop and it's Breanna dropping off a nice statue for Leo in memory of their great date. No problem! I decide not to sell the statue since the family is no longer strapped for cash and hey, it looks kind of good on the porch, after all!
I'm not sure if that statue was the trigger or not, but pretty quick I see Buy Mode go disabled and hear a bizarre sound--the one in addition to the burglar alarm. Into the house runs a burglar, and this is a different one from the last time! Of course the cop showed up--this one too a different one from last time. (Now this is really good in a way because I haven't yet decided on the family heir and we're a little short on knowing many prospective spouses at this point). So of course everyone's running around the house like crazy, with the exception of Braun who's still in his crib. I finally set Bianca to drinking some juice which slows things down a hair. Alistair and Amy, of course, run off to the bathroom where they start flirting like mad. Leo was just running around like a chicken with his head cut off.
The cop apparently rounded up the burglar and put him in the car because she was coming back into the house when Alistair started having his baby. She came running into the bathroom, sort of looked around, left a message about the $500 reward money and took off. All the while, the burglar alarm is still blaring, even after the cop left. I saw movement out by the porch and went to check, and it was Nancy, the waitress from the restaurant apparently stalking Leo. Then ANOTHER cop comes running into the house and lecturing Alistair about calling emergencies when there isn't one (no one picked up the phone and made a call but the burglar alarm is still ringing) and so they ended up being fined the $500 reward money (easy come, easy go apparently). The burglar alarm was still ringing so I sold it hoping it would stop and that didn't do it. It still kept blaring like mad.
Out of the corner of my eye I saw something that looked very odd. It was the burglar! He had somehow managed to get away from the cop and was just meandering around the lot like he didn't know what to do. I clicked on him with Alistair selected and my options were the general service people options. I had Alistair go talk to him for a moment, then quickly bought one of Inge's teleporter-plus shrubs and cleared the lot of all visitors before yet another cop could show up and fine the family again.
One thing I'll say is thank goodness it's Saturday and at least some of the people will have the day off! I declare, this was worse than the night Dagmar died in the middle of fixing dinner for the headmaster! LOL
SciBirg:
:D Very amusing! I hope I get to spend extended periods playing soon. (just need to finish the move, the redecorating etc, etc :P)
Regina:
Ah, shoot! Just unpack what you need, donate the rest to charity and you'll be all set! ;D
We moved last year just before TS2 came out. I waited until pretty near the last to set up my computer because I knew I'd be lost in it with the new game. So, when I did set it up I got onto Amazon and ordered TS2 with overnight shipping and was back in business! I was lucky enough to get to play for a while before everything in my life went crazy and it's still kind of crazy at the moment. The last few days, though, I've had some kind of flu bug, and I don't recover well from those at all, so when that happens I'm under strict orders from my hubby to relax and spend time getting better, and end up spending quite a bit of time on the PC.
SciBirg:
When I have the flu I am under strict orders from hubby to lay down and stay off the puter. :(
And I don't feel comfortable leaving all the work around the house for him either.
But I am sure I will have some time to play pretty soon. This weekend maybe?
ZephyrZodiac:
Just shows, it pays to turn your burglars into babies!
