I Play Sims 2 (part10)

Giuliana gets the award for being the best-looking female elder so far.

Unfortunately, she's willing to touch a person with a haircut that shouldn't exist.

Gigi, you're an adult! Go get some action, promptly.

Mm, yes. Right next to the bug collection, as it's meant to be.

And you're handling pregnancy so gracefully!

This is an interesting new ritual I have yet to find a name for.

Mina, I am not quite digging your elder do-rag.

Groovy, another tree fire.

Even better, a lecture from the fire department for calling them when there was no actual fire.
Must be time for more game goofin'.

Damned thing refused to quit raging, so I moved it to the front of the property and made it a feature.

Gigi really likes it. It sets them apart from the rest of the houses on the block.

It's a boy! His name is Hank.

This is what's become of our sweet princess Holly.

Naturally, Murray rushed right on over.

Hank's a toddler! Oh, I can't wait to potty train yet another one of these things.

And looky there, Holly popped right between the hoopty and the blazing tree.

As it tends to do, life goes on ... Gigi shreds her face off in her pajamas in full view of the neighbors ...

... Geneva digs her holes in the yard ...

... Mina can't bear the racket ...

... and a stray dog engages in goofballery in the spot where the tree finally
extinguished itself for no apparent reason, after several days ablaze.

Don't worry, after I moved it back, it caught fire again. I didn't even bother to call the fire department. What can you do?

So then Holly had a little girl named Hillary.

And Hank became a child wearing a shirt similar to one I own, so I need fashion help.

Hillary suddenly grew into, uh ... this. We'll wait, it could get better.

Well, maybe Hillary is smart.

Everything is just going kooky now.

For one thing, our maid came home from work with Holly.

And Giuliana find her loathsome as balls.

Alright ... uh, maid ... see you in the morning!

Then we have these two stray dogs on the front porch - both named Bailey.

They battled. There can only be one. Congratulations, Bailey! Better luck next time, Bailey!

I became so thoroughly fed up with my game's knavery, I decided to build a pond under the eternally burning tree.

You can't confuse death, Harris. Just like you can't pop a goulash.

Looks like someone tried to pop something all over Mina's new grown-up shirt.

Giuliana had her baby! I named her Gigi. She has spectacular eyebrows.
That crib sheet looks like someone has been pooping Rorschach tests.

Gigi grew into a toddler, as one does.

It's at this point, my game decided it was time for shenanigans. This bores Gretchen, who's seen it all.

Mina goes into labor near the green thing.

Gigi has become a world-weary child. I'd feel the same if I got stuck to my grandmother's torso for no reason.

Giuliana has taken up a career as an aerobics instructor circa 1986.

Mina's daughter Holly became a toddler before I started paying attention to her.

Also happening while I was in a Sims-trance - Gretchen spinning Gigi until she blows fluffy blue chunks.

Giuliana ... well. I find this hard to explain. But I guess there wasn't much money in wearing leg warmers.

Gretchen's gone. I hope she's kicking Harris' butt, wherever it is that Sims go.

Holly's a major princess, I guess.

With a minor in same-sex jitterbug.

Gigi's looking cuter.

Giuliana, don't forget your castanets.

Mina's a high-ranking ... military thing, uh - person.

Both girls participate in dare-devilry.

Although, Holly could find better ways to display bravery than offering her arm as a snack to a stray dog.

Holly's a teenager, and it's freaking her out.

I like this. It's been awhile since my Sims clumped with their guests somewhere other than the bathroom.

But I think this farshtunken visitor needs a few minutes with a hose. Go home, weirdo.

So, apparently astronauts carpool to the shuttle.

So comfortable, you can check your sites in it.

Holly's dating a lumberjack whose talent is hovering a ball with his mind.

Gigi got herself a ginger who likes his belly poked. Or at least tolerates it.

Aaand let's wrap this chapter up with a little abuse. A high note.
