Simply Having A Wonderful Christmas Time
Dec. 2nd, 2005 11:24 pmSomeone get these Christmas carols out of my head!
-H: I have a hacksaw. . . .-
Preferably without removing my brain. I suppose that's what I get for doing a Christmas pic.
-OD: *he and tentacles stunned* What? When?!-
Just a few minutes ago. Here, have a look:
( Christmas Blackout )
-TD: *evilSparkyglareofDOOM*-
It's all in good fun!
-E: *sniggering despite herself* Come on, Emmett, I think she of all people can tease you a little.-
-TD: *grumblemutter*-
-D: If it makes you feel any better, that probably would have happened with ANY of us.-
Hill Valley day today. It was a McFly house Sunday, and was shaping up to be rather boring. So I broke up the monotony by fulfilling Marty's want for a party. He and his family started off the day with a healthy breakfast:

Then after a shower, Marty threw a Sports Party from his phone. He invited Jennifer and Doc, then called up his friend Meadow and had her come over too. Meadow asked to bring a friend and showed up with Ivy Copur. Merriment was had by all -- George made sandwiches for lunch, and much punch was drank.
And as it was a Sports Party, sports were watched and discussed.

-D: Hey, down in front!-
LoL, yeah, I know. They even lit a bonfire:

Marty roasted a marshmallow at it, but kinda missed his mouth while eating it:

-M: O.o That's a damn big miss.-
I know. But everything still went well. You and Jennifer got a dance together, and the party ended on Roof Raiser status.

Oh, and Ivy Copur? Spent the entire party playing chess with Dave McFly. They actually made friends too, so that's good.

Lorraine came home with Milton AGAIN and with a paycheck that brought her total earnings to 5,000 simoleons. You go Lorraine.

Not so cool is the revelation that if Doc and Lorraine knew each other in this verse, they'd have chemistry. WTF is with my SimDocs liking my SimLorraines?!
-VD: Don't know.-
-M2: Don't want to know.-

George and Linda called Seamus and studied Mechanical -- Linda slept most of the day because of her night job (she got promoted before I saved and quit, she's now a Projectionist). Dave and George did a little male bonding over mocking Robert Parker's cooking skills.
-J: I'd complain, but Dad can burn cereal.-

Lorraine also learned how to grill a nice plate of hot dogs.

The boys thus ate on the back patio. Linda eventually joined them, but Lorraine stayed inside to eat and practice yoga.

And one final note -- Fortune Sim Dave wanted a sculpture, so I got him a cheap one for his room. Sent him into fits of giggles, and I can't blame him.

On the building front, it was back to HVU for some building improvements and the start of a new project. First, I jazzed up the outside of HVU Library, adding a barbeque area, some swings, some chess games, lots of benches, and a fountain.

Then it was over to Future Fest. Future Fest was my pre-Nightlife nightclub -- I did the best with what I had at the time. Now that I have actual nighclub items, I thought I could jazz it up a bit.
The inner dancefloor -- the red squares on the dance floor are actually a buy mode object that changes color when Sims step on them.
Future Fest's outdoor stage, jazzed up a little
The new project is a restaurant for the college kids, called Crepes Sussette (I know, wrong spelling, don't care):
Classy place to eat -- I added the pond simply because I never use water (with my old video card, it was red and looked weird). The top of the room is flat and covered with black floor tiles, that's why it looks a little off.
Inside. I'm still setting up how I want my tables and such to go.
-VuM: Cool. Question is, will we be allowed to eat there? Your college Sims seem pretty much tied to their houses/dorms.-
Heh -- well, you've seen me with the CAS students. With Sims from the neighborhood, it's a little easier as I don't have to worry about the skill-building as much, just the performance. The Marty Sims will have lots more free time than, say, the Agatha and Gil Sims.
-VM: Glad to hear it.-
Okay, time to write before I go to bed (which might be pretty soon, I'm tired). Trying to finish "Teen Doc."
-TD: I still don't like the cartoon.-
Stop being sulky, damn it.
