All three kids in the household were off to enjoy their last day of summer break which is good because while Zombie Roommate has STILL failed to get an official gig, I decided that a jam session at the Neptune Club may at least help them progress as a band.
I was wrong...wah wah wah...
They put on a pretty decent show for a completely empty bar...it was depressing.
So depressing that Blaine spent the rest of the evening spilling his sorrows (of which he has many...Really Brianna? Still after Reggie after all these years when Blaine--the Blaine--Blaine of the bookstore all the single girls were always after is in love with you?) to the bartender.
All's quiet in the house except for a tiny puppy chewing on a hot dog squeaky.
Eventually, Blaine decided to show up at Brianna's where everything seemed to be going well...until that is, he decided to spend the night and fell asleep on her couch. That's when Clark showed up again with Christy in tow. And yeah...there's definitely something going on between Clark and Brianna! Flirting and giving back massages at the very least! But my time with this chaos was OVER! I guess I'll have to wait for town notifications to find out if Blaine woke up to find these two flirting and whether or not Edith knows or even cares about Clarks transgressions.
The next day was Leisure Day and clearly everyone in this household could use a little escape from their problems! Time to plan a party at the Splash Pad! OMG! Bahahahaha!! Apparently, Alyson is already at the festival and having some fun!
Sooo...Both Blaine and Terrell invited their girlfriends to the party. Brianna flat out no showed, and Jess showed up just to stay for two minutes and peace out! Nice...real nice...
At least the little boys were having fun! Jerrod and Krista pigged out at the hot dog eating contest and Lloyd met up with Mom, Alyson, at the karaoke bar?? I guess it DOES serve food so okay, whatever, sims take their babies and toddlers in here all the time anyway.
Maybe the girlfriends all blew them off, but Terrell was determined to have a good time.
And clearly he did, LOL! Just mean muggin it while he busts a move with Sheree!
Blaine had another drink at home and called one more time to invite Brianna to the party.
And she decided to actually show up! Yay!
**side note...Method, I sure hope you don't short circuit!!**
Aww...what a cute picture! Maybe there IS hope for these two. Bahaha! Sheree is just creepin in the background!
Brianna even brought him along to a formal party at the Gillis household after the day of swimming.
The rest of the band mates went home where Terrell received an unexpected call from Alyson.
Being intoxicated he replied with a woohooty text...He rolled the want, what can I say...thankfully she declined.
He went to bed, frustrated, but hopeful about his career.
First thing in the morning...??? Okay?? First off, Marisela obviously has the glitch of becoming truly invisible when naked...also...Girl! Why are you putting away everyone else's laundry naked!!?? Terrell has literal stink lines while he waits for the shower and neither of these two is at all bothered by her current state of dress...You guys...there are children running around here somewhere!
After he FINALLY got to take his shower I decided to have Terrell start a blog for the band to drum up some extra publicity.
Blaine decided to take the kids to the park and get some extra practice in while he was at it.
Back home, Wade practiced and Marisela hired a much needed maid after finally putting some clothes on!
Terrell, for his part, got in a good work out at the gym.
I Don't Know that I'll be Posing Another Wedding Soon
By afternoon, practice was winding down. Jerrod was off to do some light fishing. Wow! He's quite the little angler!
Blaine headed downtown to meet up with Brianna for a date, but wound up singing alone in an empty bar when she ditched him.
I don't know what happened, but it must have been traumatizing for both of them! Brianna wound up in need of a sing a gram to cheer her up! Ironically from the only singer in town...her ex-fiancé, Terrell, whom she frequently stalks...when she's not stalking Reggie of course...
Blaine, I love Brianna, but maybe you should just run in the other direction at this point.
Blaine nursed his wounds by adopting an adorable puppy that I can't remember the name of because again, yeah...this gameplay has been on my computer waiting to be queued up since last October!
This poor guy!! Welcome to being playable Blaine, at this point being abducted by aliens is a rite of passage in this play through!
As you may recall, while I was on rotation with the Jones's I decided to get Zombie Roommate back together and move them all in together! I had Blaine officially enter the band career because if they fail to take off again I wanted to ensure Terrell wouldn't lose his progress in the singing profession, but at least now everyone is available for practice and jam sessions. Fingers crossed they get an actual gig soon!
And now that the band members are playable, I'm learning some interesting things about them! Wade! Actively dating a married townie, I'm surprised! The drama in this town never ends...facepalm...
Terrell...LOL! Are you trying to go for some Twisted Sister vibes here!?? I really need to download that mod that banishes the cheerleader pigtails!
At least we're back at Terrell's old place now, but geeze! What...A...Mess!! And of course before I switched households Wade adopted a daughter (who sadly is mostly left to her own devices so you'll hardly see her in this rotation) so I had to add an extra bed to ensure Jerrod and Lloyd had somewhere to sleep. It IS summer so they're with their dad for my time in this household.
Marisela seems to be practicing for the upcoming birth of her own child, but where is Terrell?
Ahh...yes...of course...Gettin tipsy and telling ghost stories at 7am...facepalm! Also, this is one of the only pictures I got of Wade's daughter, Krista I think...gosh I'm so bad LOL.
The rest of the morning was mostly spent practicing! Until Lloyd came in to interrupt his dad and complain about the noise.
What a beautiful morning! Clark, don't miss your carpool!
Crowding!? Girl, you lived in one of the biggest homes in the whole town! And where is Lloyd!!?? You moved back to Jess and Clark's old place which has one bedroom, but you have two kids!
Yay Clark!!
OMG Thomas! Are you TRYING to get fired!! Your family definitely can't afford it if you do! What is this early onset of the Mid Life Crisis!?
Um...Clark, you just got a promotion...you can go home you know.
Just admiring the view as I send Clark home so they don't have to hire a babysitter when Edith leaves for work!
Bahaha! What is that new work outfit my game stuck you with!?
No really. Why do you look like Mr. Rogers?! Even Clark doesn't look thrilled...of course that could be the crying kids!
Aww...
And Clark finished up her speaking skill with her before bed!! Woot Woot!
It's before sunrise on Snowflake Day, and while Edith tends to Annie, Clark has some big plans for Cristy!
Talk about starting the day off on the right foot!
Aww...These two are still besties! I love town notifications!
OMG! We have walking down, so Edith autonomously took it upon herself to start teaching Cristy to talk! I'm impressed! She just might get all her milestone skills done before aging up! I only have two days left with the Gallo's for this round so let's get crackin!
Speaking of skills. Edith has her one hobby that she loves and excels at, but hasn't had time for in a good while...sounds familiar! So Clark tucked the kids in for the night and she went down to the gym.
Yep! She's still got it! And I think she felt good getting back to her martial arts!
Oh thank goodness! I personally HATED these two together! I was going to be so mad if they'd wound up having a kid together!
Another of my original population aging into an adult! Can I cry now!?
I don't know if those karots were spit out by a wild horse or if they just spawned there, but Brianna is in pretty desperate need of extra income...ANY extra income, so after foraging it was time to work on the garden a little and hope there was produce ready to harvest.
I'm surprised by how easily she's taken to gardening! She ended up with enough to sell and still keep some in her own fridge to save on groceries too. It's not much yet, but every little bit helps.
Meanwhile, Petunia keeps trying to earn her keep by sniffing out collectables. Hopefully she'll find something that's actually valuable one of these days!
Phew! It's pay day, too. That definitely helps, but she'd going to need some jobs soon if she wants to pay her bills more than one week in a row.
Well...it may not be worth much, at least alone, but good job Petunia!
Petunia!
No jobs for Liesure Day, but there is a party at the Baldwin's! LOL! Of course it's formal...I've already dressed Brianna for Cristina and Shayne's upcoming wedding LOL!
I love to see all the kids starting to form friendships!
LOL! Of course...There's a perfectly good crib right there and little Krystal is on the floor instead...facepalm...Sims are such good parents LOL!
Wow! What a party! Also, Brianna must feel REALLY comfortable at the Baldwin's house because she walked in and went straight to one of Alicia's laptops to start playing games!
Alicia is also dressed for the wedding as you can see LOL! Well at least she's finally putting Krystal to bed. And Kyle is making some mac and cheese. I sure hope they don't get their bridesmaid dresses dirty before the wedding!
OMG! LOL! They all just ate and got on computers to game! Maybe they're playing Fortnite together! I don't know why the dress code was formal, but who am I to judge?
Back home Petunia is beginning to feel lonely. Don't worry, Petunia! It's getting late, Brianna will be on her way home soon.
It was nearing 3am, and it's a full moon, but it's still too early for this night owl to turn in. So, after a few quick pats for good girl Petunia Brianna went to work at her drafting table. She's after a promotion!
Oh dear! It looks like Jess has been zombified!
It's finally time to get some shut eye. Brianna is focused and ready, now all she needs is a client or two!
