Today I headed to Veronaville to play Kent Capp's family.

Saturday was both Kent and Regina's day off work. Andromache started her day off jumping rope in the kitchen and Regina chatted online and met townie teen Keith Cormier. He made a pretty big impression on her, so much so that she later called him for a chat. (Let this be a warning to all you teens out there - do not give out your phone number to strangers you meet on the internet!) She decided she was in the mood to throw a party, and invited - you guessed it! - Keith. He came. So creepy. Kent served up a simple breakfast of toaster pastries. After breakfast, Andromache called townie Robin Love for a chat. Regina chilled on the couch with a dvd and then browsed the web for cuisine sites. Everybody at the party had a good time, helped greatly by Regina mingling with the guests. Once the party was over, Andromache invited Robin over to get to know her better. Kent settled down with a self help book and mastered the art of anger management. Definitely handy when you're in the middle of a feud between two households. Andromache spent some of the family's simoleons on an easel and immediately practiced her painting skills. She earned her first two creativity points. Regina called Suzanne Jacquet for a chat and Kent spent the remainder of his day off studying and mastering couples counselling. Doubtless another useful skill in his family.
Kent and Regina had Sunday off as well. Regina started the morning by logging on to the internet and browsing cuisine websites. Andromache jumped rope in the morning, as is her habit. 
 
She also gained a body point. Regina played with her pinball machine and Andromache invited Robin over again. They finally became friends. Andromache doesn't have an easy time making friends - she only has one nice point! She's pretty, but mean. Regina turned couch potato for a while, watching a dvd followed by the news. Rollo was promoted to Rescue Pet (and I didn't unlock anything - I guess that means I've finally unlocked all there is, which sucks, I was hoping for more, more, more!) Andromache perused her parents' cookbooks and gained her first cooking point. Kent watched a dvd all by himself while Regina gave Rollo a bath. Kent decided he'd like to try his hand at gardening and self sufficiency by purchasing a garden plot. He immediately planted his first tomato crop. Regina spent much of the evening relaxing in the hot tub with townie Jill Fleig. Kent eventually managed to lure her away to the bedroom for a woohoo. 
Monday morning began with Regina taking the carpool to work. Andromache started her day as she has started every day since she became a child - by jumping rope in the kitchen. She kept at it until it was time for her to go to school and Kent to go to work. Andromache brought Marion Landgraab home from school. I couldn't imagine a better potential friend for either of them - both with one nice point! Regina convinced townie Amanda Carlson to pull weeds from the front lawn and then played a game of catch with Marion. She later invited her BFF Alec Fuchs over with infidelity on her mind. Regina is a romance sim and until now has had no desire for anyone but Kent. This all changed almost unexpectedly. I'd kind of forgotten she was a romance sim, as she never had any related wants until now. Andromache grew up well in to a teenage popularity sim, with a secondary aspiration of romance. 
 
Regina and Alec spent some time in the living room exchanging more than friendly embraces. They quickly developed a mutual crush. Regina was far from satisfied and flirted like mad with him and showered him with kisses until they both realized they were in love. This would have to satisfy Regina for now, as Kent was at home, even if he was outside and clueless. Regina invited townie Jihoon Jitmakusol over in the hopes of befriending him and this was easily accomplished. What was Kent doing outside all this time, you ask? Teaching Rollo to play dead. Kent politely said goodnight to the evening's guests and joined Regina in bed to try for another baby. Regina succeeded in falling pregnant. (Yay! If Andromache is anything to go by, these two have adorable children!)


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.

Later on, I headed back to Veronaville to play the Landgraab family.  Malcolm long ago sold his businesses and is now unemployed (but loaded).  His wife Amy is employed by one of Veronaville's small businesses and is heavily pregnant with their first child.  I moved them to a house that was easier to play than Malcolm's original mansion.  Big houses = too hard on my graphics card, which needs more cooling.

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.
