After finally biting the bullet and installing ACR, I headed to Veronaville to play Kent Capp's family for a few simdays. Kent works in the medical career as a General Practitioner. His wife Regina works in the military career as a Drill Instructor. They have a daughter named Andromache, currently a child. The family also has a dog named Rollo.
Wednesday morning started with Regina going straight to work. Andromache spent her time merrily jumping rope in the warm comfort of her bedroom until it was time for school. Kent hit the self help books and learned the secret to lifelong happiness before heading to work. Regina was promoted to Junior Officer. She spent some time chatting online before heading to bed exhausted. Rollo was promoted to Seeing Eye Pet (and I unlocked a new collar which I'll probably never use). As soon as she got home from school, Andromache plowed through her homework. Regina was up again at 7:30pm to serve a very basic mac and cheese dinner before pulling an all-nighter.
On Thursday morning Regina washed Rollo before hitting the self help books. She mastered the art of anger management. Afterwards, she browsed the food and dining section of the newspaper before heading to work. When Andromache woke up, she jumped rope in her room again and gained a body skill point. Kent served up a chips and dip platter for breakfast - he's a lazy parent at the best of times. Kent and Andromache enjoyed their breakfast together before heading off to work and school. Regina went straight to bed after work. Her sleeping pattern is a nightmare. Andromache came home with her first A+ report card and was very excited. She jumped in to the day's homework immediately to continue her good grades. Regina was up at 7pm and served a nice dinner of pork chops. Kent spent the evening teaching Rollo to speak. Regina of course pulled another all-nighter.
Friday began with Regina poring over Kent's medical books to learn a little something about physiology before heading off to another day of work. Andromache once again spent her morning jumping rope before school. Andromache's relatives heard about her good grades and sent her $100. Regina served chili con carne for lunch upon arriving home. Andromache once again got her homework done immediately so she could spend the rest of the weekend on fun. Regina was exhausted at 5pm and went to bed. Her sleeping pattern seems to be getting worse! Kent washed Rollo when he got home. Regina was up again at 9:30pm to pull another all-nighter. She served a late dinner of spaghetti which only she felt like eating. Kent taught Rollo to roll over (no easy task when the command sounds like your name) before bed. Regina broke the bathtub. She called the repairman to come out the following day. She spent the rest of the night browsing her favorite cuisine websites, playing pinball and chatting online to strangers.
On Wednesday morning Malcolm bought a chess set and practiced chess to gain a logic point. When he was done, Amy decided to do the same and gained two logic points. Malcolm purchased a living chair as he sorely felt the lack of one. Amy was in bed at 3pm due to pregnancy's drain on her energy levels. Malcolm played a few games of pool with townie Jihoon Hsu, winning one and losing one. At least he won his money back. He also gained a cooking point while cooking a delicious spaghetti dinner. He was offered membership to Games Of Glory. He headed in to the bathroom to clean and gained a cleaning point for his trouble. He then went on a little spending spree, purchasing a car and a makeover station. He gave a few makeovers and then decided to throw a house party, but was in bed before the guests even arrived. Amy woke up around that time, however. She managed to clog the toilet (great, right as a party begins, good one, Amy!) and the repairman couldn't make it until the following morning. She settled down on the couch to watch a dvd with Delilah Indie. She was offered a subscription to the film and literature magazine, which she accepted. Amy decided to turn Malcolm's party in to her own makeover party, and gave makeovers to all the guests. Everybody had a good time and the party was a success, no thanks to Malcolm.
Thursday morning began with Amy practicing her chess skills and gaining another logic point. Malcolm did the same when he awoke. Amy went to bed at 8am after falling asleep in her cereal. Malcolm played pool by himself for a while, then jumped in the swimming pool to play marco polo with Kaylynn Spitzig. He gained a body point while he was at it. Amy woke in labor, but Malcolm and Kaylynn were too busy enjoying their water play to notice. At 3:40pm Amy gave birth to a baby girl, who she named Marion. Marion has her daddy's skintone and eyes and her mother's hair color. Amy called a nanny to arrange a schedule for her working hours. Malcolm's hours in the pool payed off with a vast improvement in his physique. Malcolm threw another house party and Amy spent the evening giving all the guests makeovers again. She earned her bronze cosmetology badge. Malcolm and Amy ended the day sneaking off to the bedroom to try for another baby with success. The party was a snoozer, however.
On Friday morning Malcolm got a job in the criminal career (his LTW). He went on a spending spree, buying a stereo, a microwave, and a better computer. Amy got her first wave of morning sickness but decided to soldier on and go to work anyway. Malcolm called townie Neil Chalmers for a quick chat before heading off to his first day of work. He was promoted to Bagman and immediately drove to work to do another shift. Marion grew in to a toddler and showed a keen interest in fireflies.
Amy's pregnancy started showing and she went on maternity leave.
Malcolm fell in to bed exhausted after working a double shift.
