crossover_chickAnyway, played both the Clayton House and the Brown House. Sunday at the Claytons, Jennifer had Cho over (I cannot for the life of me spell the guy's first name) in an attempt to be friends. She didn't quite get there, but I think maybe next time. . . . Lorraine and Clara both got promoted -- Lorraine became a Waitress, while Clara made Field Researcher. Lorraine also got a call from her pal Pollination Tech. I used up some rewards points and got them a Money Tree and a Thinking Cap. Monday, Lorraine took advantage of a free morning to head to Lot 88 Road to Nowhere and pick up some groceries. I also had her try to fulfill wants to learn how to make hot dogs and hamburgers. She ruined the hamburgers, but did fine on the hot dogs. That morning, I also got my most annoying moment from a Sim to date. Clara had two wants -- eat Toaster Pastries, and Learn how to make Toaster Pastries. Easy enough, I'd have her grab the stuff and satisfy both wants fast. So I sent her to the fridge and had her grab a pan for making toaster pastries. She puts it on the counter, prepares to cook -- then turns and yells unintelligibly at me.
-M: Of course she's unintelligble. She's speaking Simlish.-
No, I couldn't understand her thought bubble either. She just wouldn't make the pastries. And I have no idea what was wrong -- both Lorraine and Jennifer could cook fine. Clara just refused. *snarl*
-D: SimClara, you're only making her hate you more. *blinku* Great, she's got us talking to the computer.-
hehehehe. Well, whatever. Jennifer came home with another A+ and decided to have Marty over. Marty wanted to bring a friend, and I immediately said yes in the hopes it would be George. Nope -- it's Crystal. *frown* Marty doesn't even know Crystal that well. However, I like to think it was Sim justice for me. For as Marty and Jennifer were kissing and appreciating and holding hands, Crystal busied herself insulting and annoying Clara. I figured that was enough to let Clara know she is very capable of cooking herself a meal and let her dismiss Crystal. Jennifer and Marty were all mushy with each other. Lorraine got another promotion, to Prep Cook. Clara called Doc over, and had some nice interactions with him. He even told her a dirty joke.
-D: *suspicious* You don't know which one you want me to fall in love with, do you?-
I'm leaving my options open until you befriend all the girls. Then SimYou can pick.
Speaking of SimYou, the Brown's Sunday was similiarly successful. Marty made a new friend, David Gibbons, through the use of the chess board. Doc's rapidly gaining skills, which is good for his Knowledge aspiration. George came home with a promotion to Scholar. Marty asked George for permission to go out with Jennifer, George granted it, Marty headed out at 8 and didn't come back until midnight, exhausted but happy. We bought a second Thinking Cap and had George use it to get another Logic point. Doc upped Mechanical and Charisma, then I let him use the Energizer so he could work through the morning. I left him still working on Charisma.
-J: Our Sims have busy lives.-
Yup. Tomorrow, after talking with Walden's and submitting my application to the grocery store, I'll move in J.C. and Adelaide. I think I'll make an original guy too, just to even out the genders. I've got three female familes to one male one.

Re: About Clara
Date: 2004-10-12 12:19 pm (UTC)Nope, George and Lorraine still haven't met. *sigh* I'm trying, I'm hoping that one day George will be a walkby at the Claytons (or Lorraine will be a walkby at the Browns.)
Yeah, George was in a good mood anyway -- Marty asked him right after he got promoted. They do have a good relationship -- all three of the boys are in the 90s with each other. And they all have an interest in sci-fi! (Moderate, though -- I'll have to buy George a magazine.)
