Week 9

Day 57 - Monday (Winter)



For all of his previous perviness, Gordon is turning out to be a decent father. He still thinks only of skilling, but he has no fear of changing diapers or being spit up on.


"If I can't have a child of my own, then I'll just have to make sure that I'm the best Aunt ever. Besides, with Bella and Gordon for parents he'll need me."
Hey! I'll have you know that Knowledge sims tend to be great parents!


Bribery, the best way to make friends. Not really, but hey they need people who will say they're friends. Who cares if they're leeches.


Really? You brough him home with you?

Angelica will be passing over soon and the family can't keep relying on her friends, so for the first time in their lives they're actually having to make their own friends.


Here we have one of the flaws of incredibly small bathrooms. Poor Skylar is now stuck in the shower until Angelica is finished her business.


Day 58 - Tuesday (Winter)



Go Beryl! I seriously can't wait for Gamer and Science to be lifted so that the computers are available again! At least if Beryl lifts Science we'll be able to have a better shot at jobs on Tuesdays.


"Gordon? Sweetheart? It's Tuesday, you should be upstairs socializing."
"I just gotta earn this last body point first baby, then I'll come up."


Good job Gordon, now get your butt upstairs and play nice with the townies.


So how's the pie Blue?
"Well, it's not blueberry, but other than that, it rocks!"


Welcome home Beryl! If you hurry you might be able to check some men out and socialize a bit.


"Beryl, you're squeezing all the air out of my lungs, loosen up a bit girl!"


"I'm all grown-up now Rodney, and I've been waiting for Tuesday so I could see you again. I know you thought it was just a teenage crush, but it's so much more than that."
"I never thought of you that way when you were a teenager, but suddenly I can't keep my hands off you."
Yup, here's a sim who is at least aware of the oddity of his universe.


SHEA!! How dare you make Angelica cry! That's it, you're never getting into this family now boyo!


Just a shot of the Tuesday madness for all of you. Sorry it's a bit distorted. It's a good thing I took it, because I then realized that Bay was hiding in the upstairs dorm. No way my dear, get down there and socialize your little butt off.


Day 59 - Wednesday (Winter)



"Does this job ever give me decent hours?"
Eventually. Besides, I wouldn't complain, while you were gone Angelica, Bay, and Beryl spent the morning cleaning and repairing all the toilets.





"How come I have to workout? You don't make Bella work out!"
Because Bella's everyday clothing covers more than yours and I'm sick of looking at your muffin top.

Uh oh! Looks like we have another stalker. Congrats on the promotion. How would you feel about having another baby?
"Really? You don't think the house is too full?"
Of course I think the house is too full, but I'm willing if you are.


Aww, how sweet! It's not really surprising though. Angelica spends most of the holding Cedar or stuffing a bottle in his face.


Time to grow up Bay!
"But everybody's watching me..."
Why don't you just enjoy the fact that you're the center of attention for once?
"Because I'm afraid something awful is about to happen."


"Oh my, it iz another Knowledge zim brought low by ze apocalypsy."


Cedar had a much happier birthday, which I almost missed because I was so engrossed with Bay's mental collapse. Cedar has an awesome personality, so I guess that little breeding experiment worked! He's a Cancer with 9 Neat points and 10 Active. Hurray!


As soon as you've eaten I'll put the computer upstairs for you and you can start working on that creativity point you've wanted for the last week dear. Although the fans seem to think that Bella is the prettiest, I've always considered Bay to be my favorite even if she didn't get as much screen time as her sisters initially.


"Who's Mommy's clever little boy?"
He is too! He learned to walk, talk, and most of potty training on his single bottle of smart milk.


"Sleep tight little Dude!"


Day 60 - Thursday (Winter)



Goopy, you better put that bird back in it's cage and close the door when you're done if you don't want to meet with an unfortunate boolprop "accident".


You see what I mean about Gordon being a decent father? Even though he'd love to skill build, he's also very interested in teaching his son things.


"He's definitely a stalker, but at least he's an easy family friend to keep!"


"Either the cafeteria food was worse than usual today, or I'm pregnant."


I think Cedar may be a little too popular for his own good. I had no idea the Wabbit could trap so many sims.


"Will this drudgery never end? I want to move out and get married."
There are only two things blocking your way Beryl. Gordon is doing his part, but you really have to start going to work in a better mood if you want to lift Science before you're an old lady.


For crying out loud, will you two take a break please?!


I have no idea why Angelica suddenly wanted to learn Couples Counseling, but who am I to argue?


Day 61 - Friday (Winter)



See Bay? You're just as talented as Bella.


Gordon, would a facial expression kill you?


I knew I could count on you Bella, I don't think you've ever come home without a promotion! Of course it helps that she's reached Platinum Lifetime Aspiration. Err, that's to say perma-plat without having achieved her lifetime want.


That's all your skills Bay, now what do you want to do?
"Buy a green energy source."
Okay, I'll go check my rules.
After checking my rules I didn't see anything about Green Energy being restricted, but I did notice that I've been breaking one rule for a long time. Hunt Bugs is restricted under Natural Science. Oops! Oh well. I'll delete their collections and stop making poor Beryl get stung by mutant bees. She may actually be happy about that part.


"Rodney, save me from the evil diety who makes my life so miserable and forbids us being together!"


"So Mom, I was thinking, all these strange people keep showing up and inviting us to these 'secret' lots, but we can't go anywhere because the Military has everyone under house arrest, so what's the point?"
"Darned if I know dear. Some people just refuse to acknowledge that the world has changed."


Day 62 - Saturday (Winter)



This is why you never hear anything about what goes on during the day. That's all that happens.


Gordon, please, just a little emotion?


Beryl needs a new hobby to generate wants. Honestly gaming is a better choice, but she still needs to get rid of that muffin top. Bay's just keeping her company, plus I get a giggle out of her leotard.


"Congratulations Angelica LaFeuille, you've just won an all expenses paid trip to the After Life!"
"But I haven't packed yet!"
"We've done it for you, now let's go."


Angelica's death hit the family pretty hard. Bella had a hard time helping Cedar cope with his grandmother's death when she couldn't really cope with it herself.


Her death seemed to have snapped something in Skylar's mind, whenever he wanted to mourn her he stood in front of the stairs blocking access to the house while he bawled his eyes out.


I think it may have affected Baryl's mind too. I'm not sure that the night your mother dies is the right time to propose to your boyfriend.


Bay was probably the worse. She just went around crying for days. She never inconvenienced any one with it, just found herself a corner and sobbed her heart out.


Four hours later, Bella went into labour.


I was tempted to name the baby Angelica, but that would mess up my naming system. Instead I named her Chalcedony. Traditionally it's a powerful healing stone, so I thought maybe Chalcedony could help her family heal from her grandmother's death.


Day 63 - Sunday (Winter)



So far Bay has had no luck in finding a job in Architecture. Bay likes to pull her weight though, so she's decided to help out those who do have jobs by making some friends now that we've lost all of Angelica's. Personally I've always loved Marylena anyway.


"I will escape this house and be free!"


"Look Mommy, I'm Elvis!"


Yay! Another simself to befriend! Everyone say hello to TiffanyK. I'll be adding links to all the simselves sim pages and story topics at boolprop to Nightrowan Sims shortly, so keep checking to see if that link page is active yet!


Nice duds little dude!


Say goodbye Bay.
"...zzz..."
Oh right, um, Bay says goodbye.
