Happy Halloween from the Middleground Midnight ball!
Trick or treat!
Good job, Hera! She’s the only dog in this household that ever gets promoted (or demoted. But mostly promoted.)
“Heh heh heh.”
Nothing like a nice little witch laugh to scare the shit out of you at 1 am. Thanks, Kaylynn.
Poppy asks for homework help. Ivy is glad to help.

I don’t know. It’s just so confusing. Andy and Benny definitely hadn’t learned how to walk when they ‘first escaped’. And both of them have six active points- so only slightly above average-…
didilysims said: Yep, Harrises is correct. Just like keeping up with the Joneses. English is weird. 😀
Then again, the German language has compound nouns like “Oberdonaudampfschifffahrtsgesellschaftskapitänswitwengesellschaft” (a true classic). I guess every language has its quirks.

Joe has early on presented himself as someone who has… issues. Fucking things up is what he does. Maybe one day he’ll stop? Or he’ll eventually fuck up really bad (if breaking up with your pregnant girlfriend, cheating on your fiance and trying to force your ex-girlfriend into getting custody of your son- whom he has never seen, by the way- isn’t “fuck up really bad”).
holleyberry said: Poor Komei.
It was so heart-breaking. He wouldn’t stop crying for quite some time, I almost regretted breaking them up. But considering Joe just kept flirting with Sandy when left unsupervised (it happened again when I played one of the other residents and he bought some groceries. Went to the grocery- Joe and Sandy flirting. At least Komei didn’t have to witness it this time. You know what’s what annoyed me the most? I put them in “ACR friendzone mode” ages ago.)

It’s true, though. I always hated that they had such shortened life spans. Even with all the benefits added, they still feel… incomplete.
audreysims14 said: The grilled cheese aspiration is cute and a fun quirk, but even as a secondary it really does take over their lives!
I wished other secondary aspirations would interfere with a Sims primary aspiration as much as the Grilled Cheese secondary. Or maybe it’s just the fact that there are only like five wishes the aspiration rolls.
Poppy’s first day of school went predictably. Come on, Poppy, don’t worry, you’ll catch up soon enough!
Since the Grilled Cheese secondary took over Kaylynn’s whole life, I decided to remove it. The only way to do it is this nice little machine, so here we go. Don’t bump your head while you’re in there, honey.
“So, I think I’m getting closer to finding the cure for your… situation.”
“…”
“Ivy? Girl, do you hear me?”
“…”
“Wow, you’re really into reading, huh?”
Like mother, like daughter?
