Gen 4 Chapter 48: Now, where was I again?

Sometimes, it feels like I've lost all sense of time. Like days and weeks and months have passed, but really it's only been a few hours.

I don't know what that's all about.

Anyway, is it any wonder that I don't know were the kids are most of the time? It's a lot to keep track of.

They're just lucky I can remember their names! There's Yeti and...

Well, it will come to me, I'm sure.



Apparently, I adopted a new kitty! This is Henry. Henry Hodgins. Isn't he just the cutest?



I decided to give BOB a thrill and sculpt him. In my underwear. There's no way he'll get the wrong idea from that.



Then this happened.



Twice.



Wait, what? I know that I sometimes lose track of time and that we moved and all... but I don't even like kids!

I mean, I like my kids... Yeti and Snow and the other one... well enough. But babies are hard and annoying.

I'm pretty sure that this is all Blu's fault.



My little princess Yeti is a such a good kid, though. She does her homework all by herself.

She does everything all by herself! She's very independent. I've taught her well.

Maybe she'll take care of this new baby.



I decided to distract myself by doing a non-person sculpture.



So I sculpted a rock! Isn't it amazing?

I'm good.



We finally got around to finishing Yeti's birthday!

We invited some neighbors over for a party. One of them scratched the furniture! Was he raised in the woods? The nerve of some people. I suppose that might be ok in his home, but it certainly isn't ok in mine!

Some people have no manners.



Later, that same guy was out watching BOB play his music with a bird on his arm. (The guy's arm, not BOB's arm. It would be hard to play the guitar with a bird on your arm.)

What a weirdo.



Anyway, here's my girl almost all grown up! She looks tired here, or bored. So... basically a normal teenager.



She's good with her little sister, though! It's so strange that Snow has such a fair complexion, don't you think?



Bumble! The boy's name is Bumble!

I wonder where he's gotten himself off to...

A/N: So this is the first of four posts using up the pictures that I'd taken but never uploaded! It's been so long since I've played this that I'm not 100% sure what's going on, but that suits Ariel. The pregnancy was a total surprise, though. I have no idea when Blu and Ariel managed that without me noticing! The adoption of Henry completes Ariel's LTW of adopting cats, even though my game only thinks she's adopted 1/6. This generation has had all kinds of trouble!

Speaking of which, I tried loading my game yesterday and it crashed almost immediately. Is there any hope that updating my mods will help? Or should I just bag it, put up an heir poll, reinstall the works, and start over fresh with Generation 5?


Outtakes

Kitty cuteness! Nova likes little Henry.


BOB can't get to Snow...


Awww, Nemo. Kicked to the curb again?


And this is where I discovered that I'd forgotten to keep relationships intact the last time I moved everyone around... Nemo is such a ladies man that Ariel can't resist him. He's your brother, Ariel! There will be no more attraction hearts!


Ariel and Sebastian didn't get along very well after the move. I still can't get used to his new hair.


Margo (Ariel's niece) and Clark Wonder seem to be hitting it off, though!


That puddle in the background? Frank Wonder. Apparently, he's not exactly housebroken in this file.


Ok, maybe it's the pregnancy hormones. Ariel, you can not have attraction hearts for a teen boy!!! I don't know why she's seeing him as an adult. It's all so weird.


Also, Blu. Stop having hearts with Diana Wonder. I might have to stop inviting these people to parties at this rate!!!

New Year's Resolution

So, it's been forever since I updated! I don't even remember my own story and I haven't Simmed in months... so I made a resolution to get back to it!

I'm going to get some posts up this week on one or the other of these blogs! I'm kind of excited to rediscover my families...
