Congratulations on your graduation and new position :)

Ithe  work from 7:30-between4:00&6:00 depending on what's up. Generally I get to play an hour or 2 (or a bit more) a night (depending on how late I'm willing to stay up, and what other obligations I have) and several on weekends. I can come here and read a bit or post a bit during lunch for a kind of fix.

I don't watch tv much, but I do occasionally do a few other things, usually when I'm a bit less addicted than I am right now (it comes and goes). I don't get as much done in game as I'd like to, but then I wouldn't if I played 24/7 either ;)


sagana and I are apparently living parallel lives  ;).  I work 8-5, 40 hours a week and all the various duties that being a mother of 2 includes. I get to play around an hour or two at night after everyone is taken care of for the day and depending upon how tired I am (or how annoyed my husband appears to be at seeing me on the computer "again" :-\). Sometimes I get 4-5 hours on the weekends, usually staying up til the wee hours to get my play time. And I have to admit that it's really hard to pull the plug during the weeknights when I'm in the midst of a storyline.....like staying up til 1 a.m. last night because it seemed imperative to get Meadow Thayer to break off her engagement with Joe Carr so that she could be with George McCarthy, after all, she IS pregnant with his baby! ;D

I guess Im lucky. I work at home for a computer salvage company on the west coast ,I live in Arkansas. so I can set my own work hours which allows me to play the sims as little or as long as I like. and since most of my work id\s done over the phone. I have two lines one for the desk top and one for the phone

knitro:
My live-in boyfriend likes to play video games so it works well for both of us, he plays halo or whatever on the xbox and i play the sims with my bird, everyone is happy.

FutureCat:
I work full time and study part time, so my sims playing is pretty much restricted to weekends too.  Sometimes an hour or so in the evenings if I don't have any homework to catch up on.

I'm lucky - no kids, and two computers in the same room, so I can play the sims on one while my partner plays quake or halflife or something on the other, and we can actually have conversations with each other at the same time (although sometimes they do get a bit weird: "Yayy, they finally fell in love!" - "Die, scum!" :D)

IridescentKerry:
Really enjoyed reading all your replies. Now I know I'm not the only one who grabs a hour of sim playing between working!

. . . my husband seems to feel he will implode if I'm on the computer and he's awake and at home (he is REALLY not good at entertaining himself).  . . .
He sounds like my husband! 

I work from 8-4:30 p.m., which puts me home about 5 p.m.  I try to get at least 1/2 hour workout in before I start on supper.  By the time supper is cooked, eaten, and cleaned up after, it's usually after 7 p.m.  I sit with the hubby for about an hour (give or take), then off to sims I go 'til at least 11 p.m. 


I am in the same boat on the same river with y'all. JM has disparaged me over how "needy" my hubby seems to be.  My hubby HATES when I am on the computer.  He wants me to watch tv with him.  Yeah, that's togetherness, baby!   :D  I need to get him addicted to a game so he'll leave me alone to sim in peace.  But he thinks they are a "waste of time"
