All sims have too many interactions...

You oughta treat yourself to an LCD screen. It's lighter, chugs less power, has much less footprint on the desktop, stays nice and sharp, and it's kinder on the eyes. What's not to like? :D
What's not to like? Well, they're small. They're expensive. And if operated at anything other than their native resolution, they're blurry. Which is sara_dippity's problem already.
The good news is, if you don't care about footprints, weight or power, you can get a used 21" NEC or Viewsonic for around $150 to $200 and kiss screen size and blurry issues goodbye. Not only that, but it gives new life to old games. Like Sims 1. Which is how I got started playing it again a couple of months before Sims 2 came out. :D

Back to sarah dippity's original question: You might be suffering from "too many sims" bugs. JM has a collection of hacks that smooth out lots of those problems, right here in More Awesome Than You.
Another thing to look at is whether the sim happens to know a lot of corrupted sims. Look at the recalcitrant sims' relationships in SimPE. If you see "unknown" sims in the relationships table, delete the relationship. Also check the sim's memories for "unknown" sims and delete the memories of them. At least I can say that this works for me.

I had a problem with the Summerdream house in both Veronaville and in my custom hood. They couldn't go to school, work or take a cab. I don't know it its the family or the house because they died of old age shortly after I bulldozed the house and moved them in with their son.

Meh, my plan is the local computer geek's most recent used monitor deal. I can't wait for the new peice of crap either, this one turns itself off when it gets too warm.
I fixed the house. No it wasn't overflow issues, since I just reset all of my neighborhoods. I fixed it by reseting them again, since I only lost about three days of gameplay.
I think it may have been the meshes, I didn't use them this time. Then again, that's like saying someone spit on me when I was wearing red shoelaces, and today I wore blue ones instead, and no one spit on me, so red shoelaces make someone spit on you.
Anyway, problem solved (except my crappy monitor, pathetic budget, and the fact that the damn kid won't go to bed properly.)

This looks more like flakiness in the "Set to Next" primitive again. It isn't looking for neighbors, but different parts of the bed.
