I played a bit today. Christopher Steele\'s newly expanded house.
\r\nTwo townies moved in (whom I quickly moved out via Edit town - they didn\'t bring any money. But I got to cull the townies that moved along with them. Yes!)
\r\nMalcolm Landgraab IV who was living here, moved out with the one of the townies ( a repair woman he\'d befriended.) They have their own cottage and I\'m hoping to get them together. (I love playing cupid)
\r\nAlmost lost Christopher down the catacoombs of the graveyard. I thought he was brave - but he wasn\'t and emerged very terrified (even had a terrified moodlet!) But his hunger, energy and hygiene were all extermely low (red). Luckily he made it back home - but I was sure he wasn\'t going to.
\r\nMy Simself rang to adopt a child. (5,000 happiness points boost too - enough to change my lifetime wish) Child arrived and I\'ve called him Yallop. In the Sims I am married to a guy, so this is a very odd set up.
\r\nWould have played for longer but the mouse settings were affected by the adoption move. Never mind, I\'ll check in later!

Just for bit of fun, I\'ve decided to do a bit of \'Big Brother/Paris Hilton\' in my Sims.
\r\nWho gets evicted is decided by who is fading into the background. Because I have SP/ageing off this is one creative way to keep my town balanced!
\r\nSadly Jennifer Martinez and her husband Pablo have been removed. The final evictee was Jamie Jolina. All three had no friends and made the least advance in their careers.
\r\nNew residents include \'celebs\' (but really their Sims with famous names!)
\r\nChanning Tatum living with Pixie Lott (they have moved swiftly into boyfriend/girlfriend status) - turning one bedroom into a new study. I downloaded a Robert Pattison sim from TSR and so he\'s moved in.
\r\nMichael Bachelor is now a YA nd has three loves; Erin Kennedy, Esther Cramp (my own character creation since Sims 1) and Dina Caliente.
\r\nI\'ve never done themes before but I\'m really getting into this \'Create-a-style\'. Michael\'s house has a blue gingham theme running throughout the accessories, rugs and small objects.
\r\nWhereas Channing and Pixie have a cow print on their rugs and bedspread.
\r\nSimis Batchelor is wooing Corniela Goth and Christopher Steele befriends local tycoon Malcolm Landgraab IV and they become roomies. As Malcolm lived alone he\'s brought $423,000 into the kitty. Wooo! (**** shame I can\'t buy a hot tub or helicopter!)
\r\nI\'ve created Sims from Sims 2, my fave Sims from the various expansion packs. Ryan Wheeler and Christy Toyanaga from Apartment Life, Malcolm Landgraab IV from Open for Business and Dina Caliente from the base game.
\r\nThat\'s all for now.

But it\'s nice to see the original settlers back and it\'s like I\'ve re-installed without actually having to re-install.
I\'ve scaled down to 33 sims spread out over 28 houses. And scaled down the trees/shrubs on the \'community\' lots - let\'s hope this stops the glitches and helps my computer out!
The Goths and Bachelors are now living together (in the hopes of match making Bella and Mortimer.) Michael has grown into a young adult and met Dina Caliente.
Leighton is single and fancy free and one of the most sought out batchelors. He\'s got three loves.
But this time Jennifer Martinez is very background, last time she was one of the main \'stars\'.
One thing I have kept the same is to bulldoze the criminal warehouse. No crimmy simmies for me. I own the town. It\'s all mine!
