Jeanne's Sim Soaps

Life isn’t fair…

When I sat down to play my legacy family after school today it was going pretty slow. Then when Bradley was eating some cereal my gameplay just stopped. I watched as Bradley ate his cereal verrrrry slowly. It took about 30 minutes in real time for Bradley to finish his cereal. I moved the Jones’ to another lot and the same thing happened. The Jones’ were the only family I had so I re-installed the sims 2. I was really angry because I had really enjoyed playing for the Jones’. I think I will just make a family and write stories about them for now…

This update will be a perfect example of how the legacy challenge helps players expirience new things in the sims 2. Bradley was punching his new punching bag (a career reward) and he went into the bathroom to take a shower.

When he came out Marisa was having her baby. Since I always have my sims eat old food (you know when it has green stuff around it), Marisa got food poisoning during her pregnancy. And of course I still had her standing up and painting when she should have been in bed. So right after she had her baby, whom I named Adam (he was a boy of course), she collapsed next to the kitchen. Adam was oblivious until he saw a dark, shadowy figure hovering over Marisa.

Now at this point I really wanted to just go back into neighborhood view and continue from my last save but I knew that was cheating so I didn’t. My best chance was to have Bradley plead for Marisa’s life which he did, looking very pathetic.

The Grim Reaper played that game where you put something in you hand and the other person has to guess which hand it’s in and Bradley won! The Grim Reaper looked upset but still brought Marisa back to life.

This whole time poor Adam was lying on the ground. Marisa leaped into Bradley’s arms before caring for her baby boy. This is the first time I have ever had someone almost die after giving birth, I was so scared Marisa was going to die.

Marisa went back to work the next day, still a little in shock but determined to get a promotion. When little Adam grew up she didn’t want him sleeping in a bed outside like she had done ever since she moved here.

Bradley stayed home that day to take care of Adam and clean up the house. It didn’t take long for the house to get messy and the only time it got fully cleaned was when the nanny came when both parents had work.

Eventually Adam became a beautiful toddler.

Luckily Bradley had 3 days off in a row to take care of Adam. With the help of smart milk Bradley got 9 charisma and learned to talk, walk, and use the potty. That smart milk has some strange side effects…

Welcome to Paradise

I’m back! I just wanted to play the game for fun, not stories for a while but I’m ready to update! Also soccer season is over so it’s a lot easier to update but basketball is coming up too so I will slow down then. Well my new story is a Jones’ family again (I just love that last name!) but it’s a legacy story. I hope you enjoy! Oh and I deleted my other posts, I want a fresh start. I’ll try not to delete old posts in the future.

Bradley Jones looked his new house up and down. He had gotten a huge property but all he had was a small bathroom and some furniture scattered on his yard.

Bradley was a super jock at his school. Captain of the football, basketball, and baseball teams. Now he was ready to move out of his parents house and out on his own to accomplish his dream of being a famous athleate. Bradley is a fortune sim and that is one of their preffered careers so it all works out. Oh and he is a Gemini.

While lifting weights in his fron yard, Bradley saw a group of people coming to visit him. After taking a shower Bradley changed back into his clothes and greeted them. The first person he meets is Brandi LeTourneu.

Brandi was like the typical girl-next-door. Bradley was looking for a girlfriend after his high-school sweetheart dumped him. The next person Bradley met was Marisa Bendett. She was a cheerful blondie and Bradley thought she was kinda cute. Also that punk in the back is Joe Carr.

Bradley chatted the evening up with Marisa. Joe and Brandi socialized too.

Marisa looks uncomfortable around Joe and Brandi so she heads home after giving Bradley a nice hug. Marisa is Bradley’s first friend.

Joe and Brandi continue agruing but more violently now. It was the funniest thing I HAD to take pictures. They did negative interactions for over 5 hours and they would apologize once in a while then slap the each other again.

One thing lead to another and…

Joe wins the first fight, then more slapping occurs, then Brandi wins the second fight. This is all my sims gossip about for a whole week. After the second fight I sent both of them home. The next day Bradley decides it’s a good idea to get friends so that he will have fans when he becomes a professional athleate. First he invites Brandi over. They become friends pretty quickly but Brandi is such a shy girl.

When ever Bradley would compliment Brandi she would back away and look at her feet. A pretty woman in a green dress walked by and Bradley greeted her. Her name is Andrea Hogan. She seems to like to pick fights with Brandi too.

The next day Bradley finally got a job. He was a Team Mascot and he went to work in a Llama suit everyday. That llama suit never gets old for me.
