More Simming

ink_sec_sims. They're doing the best out of my multi-person families so far, methinks. Mostly because I'm on solid ground with the Family and Knowledge aspirations. We'll see if the trend continues. Oh, and I have another crazy townie name for you: Sinjin Couderc. I seriously have NO idea what my game is on.
Today I played a little of the Jones family in Eureka. Allison and Cyd are doing great -- a Networking opportunity with a friend of hers got Allison a big old TV. Their dog Porthos, though. . . I do not know WHAT happened, but suddenly that dog has decided he has to nearly starve himself before he'll eat. I bought him a new, expensive dog bowl, I put it where there was absolutely nothing blocking it, I had his owners call him to eat multiple times -- NOTHING. He just won't eat until his hunger's almost completely red.
-RPD: Not even calling him to eat worked?-
The action just immediately dropped out of his queue! I don't know -- hopefully it's a temporary glitch. Either that or he'll just keep doing what he's doing -- eating when he gets hungry enough -- and I'll get used to it. Damn it, I used to like that dog. . . .
Anyway. I also played some American McGee's Alice -- and weirdly enough, the Demon Die I've gotten is coming in handy! I almost never used it in previous playthroughs, now I'm finding it a good way to distract an enemy or two. Considering that they deal a lot more damage on Hard. . . .
-TTV: Ever think of trying Nightmare?-
Not without god mode on. I've SEEN how brutal the Boojums are on that. Poor, poor Helloween. . . .
Anyway, gotta get moving -- I've decided I need a mall trip, so I gotta get up a little earlier tomorrow. I mean, what the hell -- I would have been taking the bus normally anyway. At least this trip will be for fun.
-D: *joking* Going to try and prevent yourself from buying more Discworld?-
Actually, I'm over halfway through "Small Gods" (which is quite good), so I figure I can buy the next one, "Lords and Ladies." Which, if I remember correctly, is another Lancre Witches book -- and I do believe Verrence comes back in this one!
-VD: Another one of your favorites?-
Well, I quite liked his appearance in "Wyrd Sisters." :)
