Mao is Surrounded by Idiots!

While I wait for Maxis to fix what they broke (and trust me, they broke a LOT), I’m going to work on my other project, which is essentially a story I created for the purpose of telling through The Sims 2. Click on the picture to go there for more information, or you can find out more at my SimScribes post.

Between exams and projects and just messing around with other stuff in The Sims 2… I haven’t even managed to get the TH out of college yet. The lot of them are about halfway through. I’m really, really dubious about pushing them out with University looking as buggy as it is. I don’t want to lose them. We’ll see if I get brave over the weekend or not. If not, I may just wait for a patch… as I’ve gotten this far and I do not want to lose my progress. I am making it to generation 10!

I’m definitely stopping at generation 10, I think. My interest has waned and ISBI has become way too easy for me. So we’ll see what I end up doing after this is over. Noble will be the last TH… so he better make it a good one!

We open up with Noble examining the remnants of a very squished bug on the bottom of his shoe. I’m not entirely sure how, but there was a major roach infestation issue at the Lex house. While the house and family has experienced their fair share of roaches, never have they endured something of this size! Everyone had the flu, everyone was coughing and hacking, and there were at least three roach swarms skittering about! It was truly disgusting.

…Annnnd we’re back! Kicking off this update is Monica Lex, displaying her complete lack of dancing skills, despite being a teenager. She’s wearing the OfB teen girl outfit I mentioned in the last actual entry. I think it’s pretty cute, especially for a Maxis outfit. Then again, I’m pretty pleased with the majority of the Glamour clothing (despite it being a small amount at best). In true Pleasure sim fashion… Monica has the ridiculous LTW of 50 1st dates. Sorry, sweetie… no way you’re becoming the TH now!

Unfortunately, I have a lot of tests and homework piling up in this tiny four day week (Friday is an in-service day of sorts), so I don’t have time to even put together pictures for an update, much less actually play. I’m really missing my sims. I’m still cruising other people’s blogs when I need a tiny break between studying and homework, so at least I still have that luxury. Here’s hoping for an update either this weekend or next week, at the latest. Who hates midterm week? I do! I want to get to generation 9’s TH, dang it!

Poor Unix goes into labor while her mother and husband are duking it out behind her! All that stress can’t be good for the incoming baby, who turns out to be a girl the RNG dubbed ‘Monica’–Monica Lex. For some reason, that strikes me as a name that would be present on a video of questionable morals.

Anyway, no baby picture, because I am a bad, bad simmer. She’s got green eyes and brown hair, medium skintone.
