Chapter 12: Karaoke

Welcome back to the Lee baby boom!

Household status:

Jason (daddy)

Krysten (mommy)

Bernard (boy#1)

Brylee (girl #1)

Baylie (girl #2)

Bonnie (girl #3)

Barty (boy #2)

Benji (boy #3)

Brylee applies for scholarships just to make Jason happy. All he wishes for lately is that his teenage children get scholarships, and I’ve got to get that aspiration meter up.

Then Brylee tucks in her brother before going to sleep.

Baylie got a job.

Badass!

After everyone else getting their A+, Barty is the only one to go to school today.

Since they don’t have school, Baylie and Bonnie decide to visit FM in downtown.

Let’s face it, I just wanted to get out of the house to fix Baylie’s hair. OH and I forgot to have Baylie change out of her PJs since they don’t automatically do that when leaving the house in Sims 2.

Baylie: “When the working day is done…”

Both: “Oh girls, they wanna have fu-un!”

Baylie, blasting the mic: “THAT’S ALL THEY REALLY WAAAAAAAAAANT.”

You guys are cute.

Baylie tries to make a friend.

But Bonnie is getting really hungry.

Bonnie: “Okay, I just want this fried chicken plate.”

Waitress: “No problem.”

You seem to have forgotten your notepad.

Waitress: “It’s a simple order.”

Miss Crumplebottom!!!

Waitress: “Can you tell me what you ordered again?”

Bonnie: “The fried chicken plate?”

Waitress: “Okay, coming up right away.”

Uh-huh.

And she never brought the food out.

So Bonnie switched to one of the tables.

Bonnie: *was hoping for a different server* “Uh, how about an omelette?”

Waitress: “Coming right up!”

Then she got served and ate it all too fast for me to get a picture.

I don’t know what was wrong with her sitting at the bar; these townies got their food just fine.

I sent Baylie to join the smustle, but she only danced for about 2 seconds.

Baylie: “I… I hate everyone.”

As they were leaving, I got my first look at Lisa grown up!

Since Baylie is a fortune Sim, she can give financial advice over the web for money!

Baylie: “And no one knows that I haven’t been in banking for 13 years.”

Yet.

Krysten gets a start on Bernard’s portrait.

Jason’s latest career outfit with new headgear.

And Baylie’s work outfit. I love the hat, actually.

It’s off to her first day. And as you can see by her running, she almost missed the carpool!

Barty comes home with that A+! (finally) But do you have to run to your father, who was too exhausted to even take a shower before passing out?

Promotion on her first day!!!

Bernard finally invited Lisa over for the first time after their birthdays and damn!!! All she needed was a little makeover and she’s gorgeous!

And so in love with Bernard.

He’s speechless.

Lisa reaffirms her crushing and love status, while Bernie falls in love for the first time. Maybe he has matured.

Thanks, Lisa!

Better picture inside. I love her!

Then she made fun of toddler pictures.

Lisa: “Who the fuck made this?! Hahaha!”

Probably Bonnie. She’s right there.

Lisa: *ahem* “And that’s Bernie’s mother.”

Yep.

Krysten: “So… are you in school?”

Lisa: “OH no, I don’t believe in higher education.”

Pretty sure she was just making small talk.

Bernie ignores his girlfriend and mother to play chess.

This picture is significant for being the first picture taken after my laptop died and I installed Sims 2 onto my desktop computer. It’s also from June; I’ve played far ahead in game from where the blog is at.

The game really does run a lot better; I don’t get any graphical glitches like I did on my laptop, and there were just some funny things about playing it on my laptop. One thing was, even though I have the Ultimate Collection, which includes every expansion and stuff pack, it was as if Bon Voyage wasn’t installed. I was very confused about why my Sims could never dig for treasure, which was something introduced in Bon Voyage. But that issue is fixed now since installing the game on my desktop, as you’ll see next chapter.
