| Okie Dokie, I'm joining.
I created a new Downloads folder. Downloaded three funished houses with Custom Content, including redownloading all my Sims. (I could not find them on my hard drive). And my downloads folder went from 440MB to 105MB. Yaba-Daba-Doo!! That includes all the clothes and skintones too.
So far, I created all my Sims and that's about it. I'll introduce them later. | |

| Thank you, Sugah.
In that row going across, the first, third and fourth houses are downloaded. You already know the other one.
I got them over at Pimp My Sims.
Technically, I have two or three couples. TJ and Charles, Michael and Vittorine and since I had them in a picture together, Jordan and Christina. Jason and Ashton are the two odd men. Kind of like wild cards.
We shall see......
More of the story as it develops...... | |

| Well, my game took a nosedive. While I was playing, it went kinda wonky on me, so I uninstalled, Pets. I took my downloads folder out, but not my EA Games folder. So, I went to start in up again, and I got a pop-up stating that to make sure I have the game disk installed. First thing I did was, go to My Documents...Ea Games folder was gone!! I know if you start the game up, it makes a new folder. Which game is beyond me. So, I just uninstalled all the games and reinstalled them again, back up to Open For Business. I still have my Sims. I still have my houses. And, the neighborhood I used was a Maxis one. So, I still have that. All I have to do is, put everything back in the game. Not that hard to do. So, off I go and make my Sims again..........This is fun!!  | |

| I'm sorry to hear about your computer setbacks, Ed, but it looks like you're building an interesting cast of characters. I can't wait to see what happens to them. | |

| I'm picturing something along the lines of maybe, Knots Landing.....A quiet cul-de-sac with all kinds of things happening behind the closed doors....... For the fist time, I gave Charles a new look.. I dropped his hairy skintone. Gave him new eyes and changed his lips. I hated the way they look orginally. They now have a natural look. My problem is, I hate tampering with perfection. But, some things needed fixing.  OK. I'll quit being a show off and start with the story. You've met the characters. | |

| The story starts with new resident, Michael McDonald. As he was walking through his new bedroom, he said to himself, I know I bought this house furnished, but this bedroom just isn't cutting it for me. I feel like I'm on a safari in Africa or camping in the Rain Forest. I gotta do something about this.  So, he proceeds to call the furniture store and have them deliver a different bedroom set. So, he pulls his car out of the driveway to let the delivery men park.  Once they leave, he rushes upstairs to take a look at his new purchase. Yeah, baby! I'm lovin' this!! YAHOO!!  Some of the nieghbor's come rushing outside to try and figure out what all the hoot and holleering is all about. Once Michael makes his way downstairs, the first person he greets is, Diane. Mr. McDonald, Sir, would it be impolite to ask you to use your restroom? I've got the bladder the size of a molecule. No, please go right ahead, he says. Go through the door and make a left.  As he greets the other two people there, Charles and Vittorine, Diane takes walk through his kitchen and her eyes notice something on the counter..  The keys to his BMW and money......(I just had the Dragnet Theme go through my head)  After Diane finds the bathroom, washes up and heads back outside, she runs into Michael and Vittorine playing a game of kickey-ball. She gets behind Michael and cheers him on with all the gusto she can muster. You go big boy!!!  After a pleasent visit and having some fun, Michael gives Vittorine a friendly hug and hopes he'll see her again. Maybe dinner and some entertainment. She naturally accepts his kindly offer.  Huffing and puffing to catch up with Diane, Vittorine has a chat with her. And, it wasn't a good one.  | |

| Shame this isn't The Sims 3 (UGH!). I could've turned Diane into a kleptomaniac.  The new bedroom I recolored. I did the bed, bedding, dresser, nightstand, rug and picture. Instead of trying to find a new bedroom set, I figure why not recolor this one?!!? I'm trying to keep my downloads to a minimum. The puddle of water you see on the ground. That's from Diane throwing a water balloon at Charles. She did it on her own. She also zapped him with a joy buzzer and did a few ventro-farts and blamed him. The poor guy stormed off. That's why you only see him that one time. Jeremy Piven is from that TV show on HBO called Entourage. You can read more about him hereThe one thing I forgot to do when I reinstalled my games was, include my User Startup Cheat. I was going nuts trying to do things the long way. | |

| I liked Michels new bedroom and it looked like he liked it too. I can´t wait for the next instalment what will happen?  Thanks for the link for Jeremy Piven! I have seen him in "Black Hawk down" and "The Family Man". | |

| You know when I created her, I did think Diane had a bit of a sinister look. However Ed........I did not see her as a kleptomaniac. I love it! Can't wait to see what ensues! | |

| What an interesting start! I wonder what kind of havok Diane is going to cause. I love all the little details in your pictures, like the keys, wallet, moving boxes, and moving van. Those are neat. | |

| Thank you!
The car keys and money are part of a new Men's Clutter Set over at Simply Styling. Suza created it. It's Part 2 of the set. The boxes and moving van I remembered from a set I had last year from MTS2. Just had to look for it again.
Jeremy Piven is a pretty good actor. He was just on a repeat of Will and Grace last night. Good looking guy too. I requested a Sim of him over at Sim-Antics. Caleb_71 created him for me. Such a nice guy. He even joined my site!
The reason I recolored the bedroom is, I wanted a black bedroom for Michael but I didn't want to download an entire bedroom set. I'm trying to keep my downloads folder to a minimum.
Diane as a klepto.....Such a twist! My stories have a build-up before things start happening. At least I try to have one. Ya never know what's going to happen next. | |

|  Are you going to pick up or what?!!?Couldn't resist, sorry We go to visit TJ for a bit. He's actually tying to call Charles but couldn't because he hasn't met him yet. DUH! We see him enjoying a cup of espresso. Actually many of them.  Then the doorbell rings. Neighbors stop by to say, hello. Jeremy Piven, Vittorine Di'Roma, Christina McCann  While chatting with Jeremy, Vittorine joins up with Christina and talks about the first thing on her mind.  We cut to Charles and we see Christina enjoy TV and a chat with Charles.  A little bit later, Tj joins them and they have a quick dip. Christina likes to go au'natural.  Charles tries to make a move on Christina or is he?!!?  Ashton, has no interest in the party going on........  | |

| I'm sorry about your game woes, Ed. So glad you're back in business again.
This is verrry interesting. I like what you've got going on so far. Your cast of characters
is quite intriguing, to say the least. Diane is a beauty. She is one of Hunter's?
(I'm a fan of Jeremy Piven's, btw, too.)
I agree with Em. You have a nice attention for detail.
I look forward to learning how your SIMply Liz Challenge will unfold.
Thank you for sharing. This is fun stuff!!! | |
