</div>
<a name='more'></a>Hello, and welcome back to The Lazlo Legacy. This week, we are visiting with Grace and her family in Starlight Shores.<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Grace%203-3/Screenshot_zps23249af2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Grace%203-3/Screenshot_zps23249af2.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Grace is going to be an Actress and Sean is going to be the Leader of the Free World, so the family moved straightaway into a mansion in the hills.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Grace%203-3/Screenshot-33_zpsfeae1e71.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Grace%203-3/Screenshot-33_zpsfeae1e71.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Sean's platform of Family Values isn't just for show. He truly loves his family. He spent a good portion of the week doting on his daughter, Beauty.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Grace%203-3/Screenshot-43_zps28599097.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Grace%203-3/Screenshot-43_zps28599097.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
He even made sure to be home in time to read her a bedtime story. (I didn't realize you could do this with toddlers in addition to children.)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Grace%203-3/Screenshot-35_zpsf16a3578.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Grace%203-3/Screenshot-35_zpsf16a3578.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Sean invited his extended family over for Sunday dinner. His two sisters, Jane (let) and Lauren (right), showed up. Sean's brother-in-law, Kirby, decided to stay home with Sean's nephew, Matthew.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Grace%203-3/Screenshot-36_zpsf3c21129.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Grace%203-3/Screenshot-36_zpsf3c21129.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Phil: </b>Jane, you are not as pretty as your sister so you better become a good cook if you want to land a husband.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Grace%203-3/TS3W2012-08-2621-09-27-99_zps3786cc15.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="212" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Grace%203-3/TS3W2012-08-2621-09-27-99_zps3786cc15.png" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Phil, Jane will have you know that she has absolutely no trouble getting the attention of the opposite sex. Jane landed herself a Worthington. If he's a relative of <a href="http://sims.wikia.com/wiki/Frances_J._Worthington_III" target="_blank">Frances J. Worthington III</a>, then he's probably loaded.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I don't know why I make Phil out to be such a jerk sometimes. He's really not. He's Family-Oriented and Good. I guess I have a bias against World Class Surgeons and assume they must be jerks. (Too much <i>Grey's Anatomy</i>.)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Grace%203-3/Screenshot-38_zpsd2f9d0c6.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Grace%203-3/Screenshot-38_zpsd2f9d0c6.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Grace, bless her heart, is Evil and truly can be a jerk sometimes. She enjoyed bragging about her new house to her sisters-in-law.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Grace%203-3/Screenshot-42_zps0eeca789.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Grace%203-3/Screenshot-42_zps0eeca789.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She's also quite pleased that her husband and mother-in-law are handling all of her daughter's training. Hillary retired from her Journalism job in order to stay home with Beauty.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Grace%203-3/Screenshot-46_zps836893a3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Grace%203-3/Screenshot-46_zps836893a3.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There happened to be a SimFest in the park one day, so Hillary took Beauty out on an outing. For some reason, Hillary decided to place Beauty right on the stage. This magician is quite incensed that Beauty is stealing her limelight.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Grace%203-3/Screenshot-47_zpsb531cd64.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Grace%203-3/Screenshot-47_zpsb531cd64.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Beauty appeared to be comfortable on stage. She showed off to the entire town that she had learned to walk. Is this foreshadowing her future aspiration? I do intend for Grace's offspring to complete the <i>Shoowtime</i> lifetime wishes. Beauty is getting an early start.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Grace%203-3/Screenshot-49_zps49800175.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Grace%203-3/Screenshot-49_zps49800175.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Beauty took a spot at the corner of the stage and played with her imaginary friend doll.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Grace%203-3/Screenshot-50_zpsf9ce0a10.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Grace%203-3/Screenshot-50_zpsf9ce0a10.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Her presence still seemed to unnerve and frustrate the SimFest performers. I tried to get Hillary to pick up Beauty, but every time she went on stage to get Beauty, the proprietor would wave her off. I was about to resort to moveobjects on before Hillary was finally able to snag her.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Grace%203-3/Screenshot-57_zps302c1ad6.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Grace%203-3/Screenshot-57_zps302c1ad6.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Before Beauty aged up, I thought it would be nice if Grace actually spent some time holding her child. I love this picture of the two of them.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Grace%203-3/Screenshot-58_zps8eb3dcfb.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Grace%203-3/Screenshot-58_zps8eb3dcfb.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Wow, Grace even sneaked in a tickle. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Grace%203-3/TS3W2012-08-2619-07-46-01_zps83d594dd.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Grace%203-3/TS3W2012-08-2619-07-46-01_zps83d594dd.png" width="526" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Grace better get used to holding babies, because Sean wants some WooHoo. Remember, I have a rule for the Lazlos that every WooHoo has to be a Try for Baby.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Grace%203-3/Screenshot-71_zps688d5e39.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Grace%203-3/Screenshot-71_zps688d5e39.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Sean's wish was the perfect opportunity to try out the premium content that came with the town of Sunlit Tides. This is the massage table. One of the massage options is called "Romantic." </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Grace%203-3/Screenshot-72_zpse8b020bd.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Grace%203-3/Screenshot-72_zpse8b020bd.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Grace is really enjoying the Romantic massage!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Grace%203-3/TS3W2012-08-2620-29-38-14_zps04af68b0.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Grace%203-3/TS3W2012-08-2620-29-38-14_zps04af68b0.png" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The Romantic massages grants the receiving Sim a fertility boost.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Grace%203-3/Screenshot-74_zps6d711898.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Grace%203-3/Screenshot-74_zps6d711898.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
That's the perfect time to use the Steam-it-Up Sauna which also comes with Sunlit Tides.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Grace%203-3/TS3W2012-08-2620-32-43-31_zpse3367697.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="396" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Grace%203-3/TS3W2012-08-2620-32-43-31_zpse3367697.png" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Not only can your Sims woohoo in the sauna, they can also try for a specific gender! I think I had Grace and Sean try for a boy since they already have a girl.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Grace%203-3/Screenshot-75_zps75b88344.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Grace%203-3/Screenshot-75_zps75b88344.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Sean added some more water.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Grace%203-3/Screenshot-76_zps72bccabd.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Grace%203-3/Screenshot-76_zps72bccabd.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Then he and Grace added the steam!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Grace%203-3/Screenshot-61_zps3bab192f.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Grace%203-3/Screenshot-61_zps3bab192f.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Oh, yeah, somewhere in there Beauty had her birthday.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Grace%203-3/Screenshot-63_zps108ae75a.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Grace%203-3/Screenshot-63_zps108ae75a.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She rolled the Photographer's Eye trait which her mother also has. I probably should give Beauty one of the Photography LTWs instead of a <i>Showtime</i> one.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Grace%203-3/TS3W2012-08-2611-21-09-47_zps0c71e626.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="372" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Grace%203-3/TS3W2012-08-2611-21-09-47_zps0c71e626.png" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Even if they don't have a relevant LTW, Grace and Beauty can still work on the Photography skill challenges. I sent Grace to the Consignment Store everyday in hopes that one of the nice cameras would turn up. She did find a skill book one day.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Grace%203-3/TS3W2012-08-2619-24-21-23_zps7f738f4e.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="588" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Grace%203-3/TS3W2012-08-2619-24-21-23_zps7f738f4e.png" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
One of the cameras eventually turned up, so Grace started on the skill by taking a picture of the shop worker.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Grace%203-3/TS3W2012-08-2611-34-21-53_zps45b79e05.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="498" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Grace%203-3/TS3W2012-08-2611-34-21-53_zps45b79e05.png" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The Photography skill comes with a bunch of photo collections your Sim can complete. Photography was introduced with <i>World Adventures, </i>but It looks like later expansion packs have added new collections. I have been dreading this skill, to be honest. The <a href="http://dayesofourlives.wordpress.com/" target="_blank">Daye </a>family's struggle with photography really has me scared.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Grace did manage to get a nice picture of Sean to hang on the wall.</div>

Getting back to the sauna, though, Hillary also found a benefit of using it. Having a bath in the sauna will add a day on to a Sim's lifespan. Hillary and Phil's life bars were almost full, but now Hillary is one day younger than Phil because she used the sauna. I have to be careful with the sauna because Sims use it autonomously. Hillary might never die at this rate.</div>

Maybe Grace won't mind since she is indeed expecting again. The big question is: will she have twins or triplets? We will all have to wait until next time.</div>

It's Saturday, so the week is almost over. Beauty doesn't know any of the kids in the neighborhood, so she threw a slumber party to meet all of the girls.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
I was a bit baffled that Nigel Martin crashed the party, though. I'm sure Sean doesn't approve of his young daughter having a mixed-gender slumber party already.</div>

I couldn't help but notice that Nigel snagged a spot right next to Beauty. Hmm, Nigel, are you perhaps dropping me a hint? </div>

Well, that's it for this week. Next time, we will visit with Summer in Barnacle Bay. Stay tuned!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<a name='more'></a>Welcome back to the Lazlo Legacy. This week we visit with Harmony and company in Riverview.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Harmony%203-4/Screenshot-98_zps2e0113eb.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Harmony%203-4/Screenshot-98_zps2e0113eb.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
And we start off with cuteness from Mikel and Janelle.<br />
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Harmony%203-4/Screenshot-99_zps79f44258.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Harmony%203-4/Screenshot-99_zps79f44258.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
If you think Alan and Harmony are taking it slow, Mikel and Janelle are even slower. They aren't even an official couple yet, only romantic interests. This household really tries my patience. I want to see some nooboos, people!<br />
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Harmony%203-4/Screenshot-15_zps6973b787.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Harmony%203-4/Screenshot-15_zps6973b787.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
Bree would be happy to oblige me. She desperately wants a second child; however, I am only interested in new Generation Four members, not Generation Three. Maybe I should consider moving Colin, Bree, and Lorelei to their own place, so Bree can have all the kids time will allow. And speaking of Colin...<br />
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Harmony%203-4/Screenshot-8_zps51159265.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Harmony%203-4/Screenshot-8_zps51159265.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
Remember how I said in my last entry that Fortune had started up a new bromance with Hank Goddard? Well, Colin has done the same thing with Odin Crosby. Odin came over a couple of times and Colin rolled up wishes to talk to him. Poor Colin and Fortune. They miss each other so much!<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<br />
Harmony and Alan are still more focused on achieving their Lifetime Wants than achieving a lasting romance. Harmony is more than halfway through to becoming a Creature-Robot Cross-Breeder.<br />
<br />

<br />
Alan is working on The Perfect Garden lifetime wish. He has mastered the gardening skill and has planted every type of plant. Now, it's just a waiting game for eight plants to be perfect quality at the same time.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Harmony%203-4/Screenshot-13_zpsd012aff1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Harmony%203-4/Screenshot-13_zpsd012aff1.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
Seeing him garden with his Goth look makes me laugh. Now that I have <i>Supernatural</i>, I see him as a rogue fairy. I still plan to keep all of the occults in Leaf's line, though.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Harmony%203-4/TS3W2012-08-1914-57-08-61_zps79e318bb.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Harmony%203-4/TS3W2012-08-1914-57-08-61_zps79e318bb.png" width="313" /></a></div>
<br />
Mikel decided that rather than just working at a bar, he wanted to own one. So, I converted the local watering hole to a bar and had him purchase it. Here's a tip: make sure your bar has a restroom. When Mikel first purchased the bar it remained closed. After googling, I found out that the bar didn't meet the minimum requirements of a level one venue because there was no restroom. I added two restrooms, and the bar became open.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Harmony%203-4/Screenshot-10_zpsf7885073.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Harmony%203-4/Screenshot-10_zpsf7885073.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
Mikel doesn't want the AARP coming after him, so he hired two elders as mixologists.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Harmony%203-4/Screenshot-3_zps17cae651.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Harmony%203-4/Screenshot-3_zps17cae651.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
Kurt Shallow just doesn't strike me as the mixologist type.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Harmony%203-4/Screenshot-14_zps5548d559.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Harmony%203-4/Screenshot-14_zps5548d559.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
To celebrate his entry into entrepreneurship, Mikel took Janelle out for pizza. They had a great date, but neither rolled a wish to go steady.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Harmony%203-4/Screenshot-16_zps68f0c323.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Harmony%203-4/Screenshot-16_zps68f0c323.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
Alan and Harmony also rolled wishes to go on a date.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Harmony%203-4/Screenshot-18_zpsf61f639b.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Harmony%203-4/Screenshot-18_zpsf61f639b.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
Harmony had also been invited to Don Lothario's for a party, so she brought Alan with her.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Harmony%203-4/Screenshot-17_zpse4f81037.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Harmony%203-4/Screenshot-17_zpse4f81037.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
If I wasn't so attached to Alan, I would have Harmony make a play for Don.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Harmony%203-4/Screenshot-19_zpsf4e77681.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Harmony%203-4/Screenshot-19_zpsf4e77681.jpg" width="640" /></a> <br />
<br />
After Don's party, they snuck into the community pool for a dip.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Harmony%203-4/Screenshot-20_zps97a862d2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Harmony%203-4/Screenshot-20_zps97a862d2.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
A skinny dip, that is. Harmony, you better be glad your momma doesn't live in Riverview. She'd whack your behind!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Harmony%203-4/Screenshot-21_zps71c834d3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Harmony%203-4/Screenshot-21_zps71c834d3.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
Things got steamy, but neither of them rolled an engagement wish. These two are driving me crazy. Will you get on with it already? Should I have left them broken up?<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Harmony%203-4/Screenshot-23_zps965c5a44.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Harmony%203-4/Screenshot-23_zps965c5a44.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
On Saturday morning, Lorelei visited her big brother Gary who lives next door.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Harmony%203-4/Screenshot-24_zpsd0d672c0.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Harmony%203-4/Screenshot-24_zpsd0d672c0.jpg" width="640" /></a><br />
Ruby (right), who is Gary's daughter and Lorelei's niece, had already invited Alexis Albright (left) over. Alexis is supposed to live in Barnacle Bay now, so let's just pretend her family was in town visiting.<br />

<br />
Here's a close up of Ruby. I love her hairstyle and outfit. I also see that she has violet eyes. She must have gotten them from her mother. <br />
<br />

<br />
On Saturday night, Harmony grouped up with Janelle, her sister Summer, and her cousins Grace, Hope, and Charity. (Spoiler: Hope is expecting.) I was hoping the girls would be getting together to throw Harmony a bachelorette party, but we'll have to settle for a regular Girls' Night Out.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Harmony%203-4/Screenshot-32_zps08750849.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Harmony%203-4/Screenshot-32_zps08750849.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
The girls partied it up at the Riverview branch of The Grind. Alexis's mom, Shera, was also there. Don't you Albrights know you're supposed to stay in the background?<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
The other girls bailed out early, so soon it was only Harmony and Charity. So they ate,<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Harmony%203-4/Screenshot-28_zps47bcf846.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Harmony%203-4/Screenshot-28_zps47bcf846.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
danced,<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Harmony%203-4/Screenshot-31_zps33614574.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Harmony%203-4/Screenshot-31_zps33614574.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
and apparently got wasted. I can't see Harmony dancing on the tables in a sober state. And who is that guy checking her out? Alan, you better make a move fast.<br />
<br />
Well, that's all for this week. Next time, we will be visiting with Grace in Starlight Shores. Stay tuned!<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<a name='more'></a><div style="text-align: center;">
Hello, and welcome back to the Lazlo Legacy. This week we start a new round back at the main Lazlo household in Harmony.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Guardian%203-5/Screenshot-67.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Guardian%203-5/Screenshot-67.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
And we begin with my heckling Simself.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Guardian%203-5/Screenshot-66.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Guardian%203-5/Screenshot-66.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
Apparently, I am booing Guardian. Is my Simself exhibiting some repressed anger towards Guardian? I don't think it's a secret that Justice has been my favorite torch holder so far, but I don't dislike Guardian.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Guardian%203-5/TS3W2012-08-1722-53-44-62.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="504" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Guardian%203-5/TS3W2012-08-1722-53-44-62.png" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
Especially since he's earned me another point by completing the Menu Maven skill challenge. (He actually had to complete this challenge to earn his LTW. I just forgot to count the point for it.) As a matter of fact, Guardian has been the most efficient Sim at earning his lifetime wish.<br />
<br />
Maybe I am annoyed with him because it was his parents who first realized it was time for his daughters to age up.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Guardian%203-5/Screenshot-68.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Guardian%203-5/Screenshot-68.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
Grandma Tracey brings Promise to the cake,<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Guardian%203-5/Screenshot-70.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Guardian%203-5/Screenshot-70.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
and Grandpa Fortune brings Peace to the cake. Mom Leeann stands close by to cheer her on. Where is Guardian???<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Guardian%203-5/Screenshot-87.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Guardian%203-5/Screenshot-87.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
Playing in the sprinklers in his formal outfit. So, yeah, I guess he did deserve to get booed.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Guardian%203-5/Screenshot-69.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Guardian%203-5/Screenshot-69.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
Promise adds Clumsy to Grumpy and Artistic. I see a lot of Guardian in her.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Guardian%203-5/Screenshot-71.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Guardian%203-5/Screenshot-71.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
Peace may not look as much like her dad as her twin does, but she does share his Family-Oriented trait. I haven't completely decided which lifetime wishes the girls are going to pursue. Since <i>Supernatural</i> was recently released, I am thinking it might be cool if one of them follows the Con Artist branch of the new Fortune Teller career while the other follows the Mystic branch. We'll see. I am thinking that their older brother Trust is going to be an International Super Spy.<br />
<br />
Anyway, there were birthdays all around town.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Guardian%203-5/TS3W2012-08-1814-13-13-74.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Guardian%203-5/TS3W2012-08-1814-13-13-74.png" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
My Simself's son, Gabriel, became a child.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Guardian%203-5/Screenshot-73.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Guardian%203-5/Screenshot-73.jpg" width="458" /></a></div>
<br />
Aww...he's super cute. He appears to take mostly after his father.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Guardian%203-5/TS3W2012-08-1811-40-44-18.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Guardian%203-5/TS3W2012-08-1811-40-44-18.png" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
Hank and Pauline's son, Graham, also grew up.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Guardian%203-5/Screenshot-65.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Guardian%203-5/Screenshot-65.jpg" width="486" /></a></div>
<br />
He's a cutie too, and he seems to be a mix of both his parents. I am already hoping that Gabriel and Graham will become Guardian's sons-in-law someday.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Guardian%203-5/Screenshot-75.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Guardian%203-5/Screenshot-75.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
Graham got a head start by coming home from school with the twins one day.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Guardian%203-5/Screenshot-76.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Guardian%203-5/Screenshot-76.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
Since Graham was already over, Fortune invited Pauline and Hank too. It's so nice to see Hank and Pauline taking an interest in their son.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Guardian%203-5/Screenshot-77.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Guardian%203-5/Screenshot-77.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
I think it helps that I replaced their Commitment Issues trait with Family-Oriented.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Guardian%203-5/TS3W2012-08-1814-18-50-59.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="578" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Guardian%203-5/TS3W2012-08-1814-18-50-59.png" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
Fortune and Hank have become close since they are both on the police force. I feel sorry for Fortune. I think he's been lonely since Colin Murphy moved away to Riverview, so he's had to start up a new bromance with Hank.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Guardian%203-5/Screenshot-80.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Guardian%203-5/Screenshot-80.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
I am trying to keep Fortune busy by having him try out all of the chemistry set potions. The puddle he is standing in was caused by the Bladder Flow potion. The only one I don't want him trying is the "Young Again" potion because, well, I don't want him young again. I'll save that one for my Architect, who I am sure will need it.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Guardian%203-5/Screenshot-90.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Guardian%203-5/Screenshot-90.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
I am also having Peace work on her cooking. If she can get to Level 2 and have a bale sake, she will earn me another point in the Completion Challenge (provided she completes her LTW, of course).<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Guardian%203-5/Screenshot-94.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Guardian%203-5/Screenshot-94.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
I was feeling bad about booing Guardian, so I invited him over to my place for a party. He decided to bring Fortune with him.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Guardian%203-5/Screenshot-91.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Guardian%203-5/Screenshot-91.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
It was a formal party, so I was dressed to the nines. It's hard to look classy with Freezer Bunny and the Sponge guy in the background, though.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Guardian%203-5/Screenshot-92.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Guardian%203-5/Screenshot-92.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
And my dear hubby is illustrating that the party was a snoozer. He crashed even before the guests arrived. I'm sorry if this entry was a snoozer. The Lazlos really didn't do much this week other than have birthdays and work on their skills. Join us next time when we visit Guardian's sister, Harmony, in Riverview. Will Harmony and Alan finally get hitched? Stay tuned...<br />

Hello, and welcome back to The Lazlo Legacy. This week, we are joining Chance, Nichol, and Serendipity in the <strike>new</strike> town of Lucky Palms. (By the time this posts, Sunlit Tides will have been released, so look for Love Russell to be moving there next round.)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Serendipity%203-1/Screenshot.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Serendipity%203-1/Screenshot.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We start the week out with Nichol pushing hard to complete her lifetime wish of Physical Perfection. She has already mastered Martial Arts</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Serendipity%203-1/TS3W2012-08-1213-56-36-26.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="326" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Serendipity%203-1/TS3W2012-08-1213-56-36-26.png" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and she's <i>this</i> close to mastering Athletic. Luckily, she has her husband Chance there to coach her on. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Serendipity%203-1/Screenshot-5.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Serendipity%203-1/Screenshot-5.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
See how close she was to maxing the skill before she fatigued? I was frustrated because I was going to have to wait one more day before I could <strike>add some more points to my score</strike> see her fulfill her lifelong dream.<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Xiaobai and Li Mei are getting on well together.<br />

<br />
In fact you can say they are getting along swimmingly. (Did you see what I did there?)<br />
<br />
Seriously, though, the Lazlo dogs love the pool. I can always find at least one of them in it. They use it way more than the human Sims do.<br />
<br />

<br />
The Lazlo pool is about to get more crowded.<br />

The next day, Nichol finally masters the Athletic skill.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And with that, she also fulfills her lifetime wish of Physical Perfection. Watching Chance train Nichol, I realized how integral he has been to her
in achieving her LTW. She couldn't have mastered Martial Arts as
quickly as she did without having him as her sparring partner. Likewise, he helped accelerate her Athletic skill by coaching her. It is nice to see in hindsight how well-suited they were for each other.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
If I am sounding nostalgic, it is because I am. Nichol is the last member of Generation 2 to complete her lifetime wish. With Mason passing away last week, it is clear that the torch has firmly been passed to Generation 3.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
With that being said, it's time for daughter Serendipity to become a Young Adult. The guy having the nerve to do his homework during her birthday party is Ethan Tanner, a native of Lucky Palms. I wish Serendipity had more time as a teen because the teens of Lucky Palms seem to be an interesting bunch. In fact, Ethan probably would have been the number one candidate for Serendipity's boyfriend. (She left her old childhood sweetheart, Jeff Dunham, back in Harmony.)</div>

Wow! Another stunning beauty for Generation 3! Serendipity wants to be a director, but with her figure, she could easily be a model. She didn't have time to get her grade up to A, so she the "Good" trait was locked in. Not too bad for a random trait. Her grandpa Justice was Good, too.</div>

Being a young adult now, she moves up to a double bed, which she hopefully will be sharing with a husband some day.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
Or maybe she will be sharing it with her mom, since Xiaobai has taken Nichol's place next to Chance.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
No one will be getting much sleep now that Li Mei's puppies have been born!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Serendipity%203-1/Screenshot-48.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Serendipity%203-1/Screenshot-48.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
Say hello to Niu. She's Playful and Non-Destuctive. She inherited Xiaobai's coat and Li Mei's spots.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Serendipity%203-1/Screenshot-49.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Serendipity%203-1/Screenshot-49.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
Her sister, Ai, is practically a clone of mom Li Mei, but she does have Xiaobai's ears. Ai is Non-Destructive and Friendly.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Serendipity%203-1/Screenshot-51.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Serendipity%203-1/Screenshot-51.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
Finally, meet brother Shui who is my pick of the litter. If I decide to do a doggie legacy, Shui is going to be the heir. He Likes Swimming like his dad, and he's Friendly. I love how his one paw is Li Mei's coloring. Niu and Shui look a lot alike. The only difference is that Niu's head is a bit narrower than Shui's.<br />
<br />

<br />
It's funny. As soon as the puppies were born, Jingjing went and guarded the food bowl. Poor thing. She's the only cat in a house with five dogs. I really struggled keeping her social up this week.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Li Mei and Xiaobai had no problems with socializing the puppies. Li Mei often played with them autonomously. <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Anyway, Graduation Day rolled around for Serendipity.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Serendipity%203-1/TS3W2012-08-1720-02-10-80.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="245" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Serendipity%203-1/TS3W2012-08-1720-02-10-80.png" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
That fits. Serendipity does like to paint and film is also a form of art.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Serendipity%203-1/Screenshot-22.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Serendipity%203-1/Screenshot-22.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
Since Serendipity was still single, I decided to take advantage of the wishing well premium content that came with Lucky Palms.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
You guys know me. Is it any surprise I had her wish for Love?<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Here goes nothing...<br />

<br />
She looks so hopeful. Unfortunately, her wish went unanswered. So, she wished again.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Serendipity puckered up and planted a wet one on him. That's faith, girl.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
LOL! Those people who say frogs taste like chicken are lying.<br />
<br />
Anyway, Serendipity's Frog Prince transformed into...<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
He's not all bad. Not only does he share Serendipity's love of locs, he is also a Great Kisser. Too bad for him, that's not enough.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Serendipity%203-1/TS3W2012-08-1421-54-32-96.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="350" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Serendipity%203-1/TS3W2012-08-1421-54-32-96.png" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
He's apparently a Diva too. I didn't feel bad about Serendipity kicking Frog Boy to the curb.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Serendipity%203-1/Screenshot-34.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Serendipity%203-1/Screenshot-34.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
Well, Plan A failed. Maybe we'll have to wait for Ethan Tanner to grow up after all.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Serendipity%203-1/TS3W2012-08-1216-40-11-37.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="81" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Serendipity%203-1/TS3W2012-08-1216-40-11-37.png" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
On the other hand, there may be a Plan B. Xiaobai is now a level five hunter and has unlocked a special ability.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Serendipity%203-1/Screenshot-47.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Serendipity%203-1/Screenshot-47.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
It's time for Serendipity and Xiaobai to take a trip to the Lucky Simoleon Casino.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Serendipity%203-1/TS3W2012-08-1720-15-47-09.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="329" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Serendipity%203-1/TS3W2012-08-1720-15-47-09.png" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
Dogs who have reached level 5 in Hunting can fetch dates for their masters. It's time to put Xiaobai to the test.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Serendipity%203-1/Screenshot-43.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Serendipity%203-1/Screenshot-43.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
Xiaobai fetches Lucky Palms resident Ezekiel Reid.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Serendipity%203-1/Screenshot-44.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Serendipity%203-1/Screenshot-44.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
Serendipity and Ezekiel seem to hit it off. I don't know much about Ezekiel other than the fact that he's single and works in the Music career. While chatting, Serendipity did learn that his favorite color is Lilac. That's my self sim's favorite color, so that's a plus in my book.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Serendipity%203-1/Screenshot-46.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Serendipity%203-1/Screenshot-46.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
Ok, I took peek at him in CAS to see what was under the shades. He's not bad looking. And with his dual colored hair, he has interesting genetics. This could be a match.<br />

Speaking of matches... I love when Story Progression follows Maxis canon. Fingers crossed that they give birth to a son!<br />

<br />
The next day is a day I have been dreading... Chance's elder birthday. He invited over his co-workers, Aya Tanner and Barry Gilbert while Nichol invited over the entire family of her co-worker Kadia King. Of course, I made sure to invite both of Serendipity's potential suitors.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Poor Ethan is at a major disadvantage, still being a teen. For his sake, he better age up before Ezekiel seals the deal.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Serendipity%203-1/Screenshot-54.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Serendipity%203-1/Screenshot-54.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
Nichol is the first to blow out the candles since Chance hadn't gotten home from work yet.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Serendipity%203-1/Screenshot-55.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Serendipity%203-1/Screenshot-55.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
She's not happy to be an elder, and I can't say I blame her.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Serendipity%203-1/Screenshot-56.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Serendipity%203-1/Screenshot-56.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
I think Chance was more reluctant, though. He somehow didn't come home in the carpool. Instead, I found him playing guitar outside the stadium. You can't escape old age, Chance!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Serendipity%203-1/Screenshot-58.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Serendipity%203-1/Screenshot-58.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
Uh-oh, Serendipity may have to compete with Abrielle King for Ethan's affections.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Serendipity%203-1/Screenshot-60.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Serendipity%203-1/Screenshot-60.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
Sahan Diwan crashed the party. He's not bad looking either. I'll add him to Serendipity's list of suitors.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Serendipity%203-1/Screenshot-61.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Serendipity%203-1/Screenshot-61.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
I finally got Chance to the cake. I am telling you, he did not want to age up. The blow out candles action dropped out of his queue twice before he finally went through with it.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Serendipity%203-1/Screenshot-63.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo/Serendipity%203-1/Screenshot-63.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
Not too bad. He still has those lovely eyes. EAxis has been stepping up their game lately, but they still need to come out with a fashionable set of elder clothing. It took me forever to find something that I could envision Chance wearing.<br />
<br />
Well, that's it. Generation 2 are all elders now. That also brings us to the end of this week's chapter. Next week, we'll be back in Harmony with Guardian. Stay Tuned!<br />

<a name='more'></a>Whoa! Two posts in the same month! I'm on a roll. I'm starting to enjoy playing this game again. Not to mention that I am super excited for <i><a href="http://thesims.com/en_US/the-sims-3-seasons" target="_blank">Seasons</a>.</i> November 13th cannot get here soon enough.

Charity is joined by her imaginary friend-turned-real, TheSituation, a.k.a. "Michael." As you can see, I have restored my custom content. There is not a single EA hair that does Michael justice. Also, he just didn't look like himself with EA default skin. So Simport be darned, I'm keeping my CC.<br />

And this. So my strategy for this LTW is to have him stock a home pond with thirteen different varieties of fish, and then fish that pond until he gets his thirteen perfect fish. Once he completes his LTW, I will have him stock the pond with the remaining varieties and keep fishing that pond until he tops the Fisher career and completes the Fishing skill challenges. As a side challenge for myself, I will have him read all of the fishing books because I have never had a Sim do that.</div>

On Friday, Charity drew this Sim (whose name I can't remember) as her next ranked opponent. When she invited him over, he told her he was at work and didn't know when he would be free. I guess that is because he's a Proprietor at Mick's Masters. I was hoping that maybe there was a chess table on the lot so that she could challenge him there, so she and Michael went on a date.</div>

He is an Animal Lover, so he wanted to befriend Bella. Of course, a unicorn is the perfect pet for a once Imaginary Friend. Maybe I will have him adopt her if he can ever find her again. Too bad he doesn't have the Fairy Tale Finder LTW.</div>

The unicorn must have brought Michael some luck because he caught a starfish. The starfish came with <i>Showtime</i>,<i> </i>and I thought I would have to put spawners in Hidden Springs for Michael to catch them. Thanks, EA, for taking care of this. Hopefully, I can find some Sea Sludges too.</div>

Fairy tales are coming true all over Hidden Springs. I don't plan to post too many messages about the pre-mades, but I was tickled to see that the "geek" Liam got the belle of the ball. If you are not familiar with these Sims, you usually see Liam's picture next to a big OOPS on the Sims 3 site. Ella is supposed to be Cinderella. She lives with her wicked stepmother and stepsisters and is supposed to capture the heart of the town's "prince", Sebastian Vanderburg. In my hood, Sebastian ended up with one of Ella's stepsisters. Nice work, Liam!</div>

Love is in the air because Charity woke up Saturday morning with the wish to marry Michael.</div>

Michael woke up with the wish to WooHoo Charity. In my book, that's a marriage proposal (strict family values, you know).</div>

Since Charity was the one with the actual proposal wish, I let her do the proposing. They both already have the last name Russell, so it really doesn't matter who initiates proposing or marriage. I do feel bad that I gave them a quickie wedding. She rolled the wish on Saturday which is the last day I play the lots (I play each lot from Sunday 6 am to Sunday 6am). I also wasn't feeling that great when I played, and they had very little money, so all they got was a wedding arch and a wedding cake. I didn't even bother matching the Russells to Charity's and Michael's favorite colors (which happen to be white and grey, by the way).</div>

Actually, they were crying because Mason decided to UP AND DIE at the wedding! What is with these Lazlo/Russell men dying at weddings? Justice died at Guardian and Leeann's wedding. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Anyway, I had a feeling Mason might pass during the wedding. If you have Twallan's Story Progression mod installed, it will give you a notice when a Sim inherits items from another Sim. I had gotten a notice that Charity had inherited some money from Mason, so I knew he wasn't long for this world. Still I was sad to see him go. He is the first member of Generation 2 to pass away. He was the sweetest Criminal Sim I have ever known.</div>

Aww...Charity doesn't want to let her daddy go. I feel your pain, but it is time for him to journey on. The man has literally lived two lives. If you remember, I made him, Faith, Nichol, and Chance young again when I decided I wanted to play all of the spares. I am bummed he didn't get to the top of his career, but he did accomplish his LTW.</div>

<i>Mason Russell passed away peacefully at the home of his daughter in Hidden Springs. He died as he lived, Surrounded by Family. Mr. Russell was born in Sunset Valley. While attending Sunset Valley High, he earned money as a baby-sitter. It was also in high school where he met his future wife, Faith Lazlo.</i> <i>The couple went on to have six children: Grace Russell-Bumgarner, Honor Russell, Hope Russell-Chesterman, Charity Russell, Love Russell, and Courage Russell.

<br />
Welcome to Hope and Barry's new home! They will be founding the Appaloosa Plains branch of the Lazlo family. I am hoping their descendants will accomplish the <i>Pets</i> related LTWs and skills. Hope has The Zoologist LTW, so we are already on the way.<br />
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
The first order of business is adopting a cat. Since cats can hunt small animals, I am hoping Tiger here will help Hope out with her LTW.<br />
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
Tiger bounds onto the lot. Welcome to the family, boy! You definitely look happy to be here. He does have the hyper trait, and he is already living up to it. He is also playful, adventurous, a genius, and proud. <br />
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
RL Danny and I are considering getting a kitten, so this week Tiger helped me work through the pros and cons of getting a cat. The first con: cat hair in my food. I have two dogs, so I am not used to animals on my dining room table.<br />
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-0BXDXgMOyC4/UB72fzsjNPI/AAAAAAAACM0/QtWSTkLq_r4/s1600/Screenshot-12.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-0BXDXgMOyC4/UB72fzsjNPI/AAAAAAAACM0/QtWSTkLq_r4/s640/Screenshot-12.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
Con #2: Cat playing in the toilet. My dogs are too small to reach the toilet, so I have never had to worry about whether the lid is up or down.<br />
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Td1nYyyyGio/UB72juUzxII/AAAAAAAACNU/WUdxxfjdjVE/s1600/Screenshot-14.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Td1nYyyyGio/UB72juUzxII/AAAAAAAACNU/WUdxxfjdjVE/s640/Screenshot-14.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
It's almost as if the game knew Hope and Barry would be getting a cat. I didn't place that artwork. It came with the house. <br />
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_ruANgrQ13x18OOTpdSsGrjN0-iYrm1NbjDhtv4qXK3a0QqDBMWgRn92AmIldDwIm-mtLXq-rXTTQ74DZ-LbNUWT3vWnVc2jT1SF6IHw7MPH4WcNFJVHXYmLKdJmYh4RiM5kNiEbGGRk/s1600/Screenshot-21.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_ruANgrQ13x18OOTpdSsGrjN0-iYrm1NbjDhtv4qXK3a0QqDBMWgRn92AmIldDwIm-mtLXq-rXTTQ74DZ-LbNUWT3vWnVc2jT1SF6IHw7MPH4WcNFJVHXYmLKdJmYh4RiM5kNiEbGGRk/s640/Screenshot-21.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
Unfortunately, since I moved Hope to another hood, her count of finding small pets in the wild was reset to zero. She only has to find twenty to complete the LTW, so I don't think it will take long. The first pet she found in Appaloosa Plains was this bird.<br />
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-T5BJQKu7BMY/UB74V6HwF0I/AAAAAAAACXc/t1haiOWclAE/s1600/TS3W+2012-04-28+15-46-59-07.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="166" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-T5BJQKu7BMY/UB74V6HwF0I/AAAAAAAACXc/t1haiOWclAE/s640/TS3W+2012-04-28+15-46-59-07.png" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
Wow, an uncommon pet on the first try. Not bad, Hope! Catalina is a nice name, so I gave that name to the Macaw.<br />
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKVCO2IMCpuUhjfSdmYRu6CCGmy8z9VCPukoKt28X_cwnUEfPnOTozpWTnmm6oA1-0OxNB-5aX3IuUGHF0KSBaVW1xOJbF4N6CDgiLASO6zkFtCCAn0nHTHekGyr4BSSeCvTivhanwrv0/s1600/Screenshot-22.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKVCO2IMCpuUhjfSdmYRu6CCGmy8z9VCPukoKt28X_cwnUEfPnOTozpWTnmm6oA1-0OxNB-5aX3IuUGHF0KSBaVW1xOJbF4N6CDgiLASO6zkFtCCAn0nHTHekGyr4BSSeCvTivhanwrv0/s640/Screenshot-22.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
Hope reminds me of a pirate with Catalina on her shoulder. I should dress her in some Barnacle Bay attire for fun.<br />
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-gisHKGqQH-0/UB72z9t03RI/AAAAAAAACOk/V7tIRGK--dM/s1600/Screenshot-26.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-gisHKGqQH-0/UB72z9t03RI/AAAAAAAACOk/V7tIRGK--dM/s640/Screenshot-26.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
Tiger took a keen interest in Catalina.<br />
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-qr294gAihwA/UB720zBQubI/AAAAAAAACOw/9cthLB93BDM/s1600/Screenshot-27.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-qr294gAihwA/UB720zBQubI/AAAAAAAACOw/9cthLB93BDM/s640/Screenshot-27.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
Tiger: <i>I'm gonna mess you up, Bird!</i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
I don't know if cats will autonomously attack birds. Tiger was good this week and left Catalina alone. We'll have to see what he does the next time I play Hope's lot.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But speaking of autonomous action...<br />
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-NqDShWqJ_-8/UB74TDB8ylI/AAAAAAAACW4/WgdQpUkBldQ/s1600/Screenshot.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-NqDShWqJ_-8/UB74TDB8ylI/AAAAAAAACW4/WgdQpUkBldQ/s640/Screenshot.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
While I was playing Hope's lot, the Store team released the <a href="http://store.thesims3.com/setsProductListing.html?catalogId=10143&categoryId=&scategoryId=13507&pcategoryId=12861&ppcategoryId=13507" target="_blank">Fabulous Fiesta</a> set (yes, that's how long ago I played the first half of this week), so I decided to do some redecorating.<br />
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-k1II1auhWx4/UB74X53idFI/AAAAAAAACX0/y9U9czhVtvQ/s1600/TS3W+2012-04-29+10-43-22-47.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="334" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-k1II1auhWx4/UB74X53idFI/AAAAAAAACX0/y9U9czhVtvQ/s640/TS3W+2012-04-29+10-43-22-47.png" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
Barry appreciated my efforts, and I am grateful. As I have said numerous times, I really do not enjoy building and decorating. Anyway, the set came with two premium content items, a deep fryer and an ice-cream maker.<br />
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/--naH9Sqryb8/UB74StI4zFI/AAAAAAAACWs/4bGByOh9wU4/s1600/TS3W+2012-04-28+15-23-42-39.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="206" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/--naH9Sqryb8/UB74StI4zFI/AAAAAAAACWs/4bGByOh9wU4/s640/TS3W+2012-04-28+15-23-42-39.png" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
Hmm..they got happiness points for placing the items? Actually, I think these are the first premium content items I have placed in the game. Do all of them generate happiness points?<br />
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
Hope also rolled a wish to improve her cooking skill, so she started with the fryer.<br />
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiOxnCeYaHnN8ITuReUaynnYRGYCvJ35xWbsem2LswnheRiSy8Siu30DndoBE7JLWm1FNxmVhus5GUVwP3oAW4Ea8Zux_2MBsN1LGD5zd5rb6dkxoasvAozYz-VAlL5cNK5pEBBfuzqwOk/s1600/TS3W+2012-04-28+15-27-25-87.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="322" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiOxnCeYaHnN8ITuReUaynnYRGYCvJ35xWbsem2LswnheRiSy8Siu30DndoBE7JLWm1FNxmVhus5GUVwP3oAW4Ea8Zux_2MBsN1LGD5zd5rb6dkxoasvAozYz-VAlL5cNK5pEBBfuzqwOk/s640/TS3W+2012-04-28+15-27-25-87.png" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
You can make a lot of different things with the fryer. This will definitely make meal time more interesting. Cooking skill doesn't seem to limit what is available, because I think Hope only had one point in cooking at the time.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Also, the Store Team is on the cutting edge. Did they know Burger King was going to be offering bacon ice cream just a couple months after this set came out?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Barry combined the fryer and the ice cream maker and made fried ice cream.<br />

These moodlets got me to thinking. It would be nice if the food they ate, and not just the amount, dictated their overall health. Sims who mainly eat Autumn Salad ought to stay thin, while those the indulge in the fryer and the ice cream maker should pack on the pounds.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Anyway, these two appliances were very fun to play with, but they come with one HUGE annoyance. They advertise so highly to the Sims, that if they are left idle, they will go cook something. I was constantly having to cancel those actions from their queue. I hope the store team fixes this soon. I might have to delete these appliances otherwise.<br />

Ok, here is a pro. An obedient cat will use the scratching post, and not the furniture. I have to give it to Tiger. He didn't scratch a single item of furniture all week. That is a big plus in my book.<br />

Out of nowhere, Hope rolled the wish to get engaged. Yes! Her other family members usually take so long to the roll the wish, that I get fed up and marry them off anyway. Barry was at work, so Hope couldn't act on the wish right away. You better believe I looked it in, though.<br />

Tiger's social was low, so Hope took him to the Cat Park. I was wondering if any other cats would actually show up, and they did. Here is Petunia Curley, with her mom Esme.<br />

I have to give EA props on the minor pet cages. They are all unique and neat. I was ecstatic to see the womrat running on a hamster wheel. My only request would be that more than one pet could be added to the cage. Hope and Barry are going to have to build a shed to house all of these minor pets. Unlike the fish, she can't keep them in her inventory because they might escape.</div>

Barry is also on the way to accomplishing his LTW to be a Star News Anchor. Chance's wife, Nichol, is also in the Journalism career, but I don't see her reaching the top before she passes away. She spent most of her time focusing on mastering martial arts and athletics for her LTW rather than writing.<br />

After his promotion, Barry must have been feeling confident about his ability to provide for a family, because he rolled the wish to get engaged. I can't believe they both rolled the wish to get engaged. My Sims hardly roll this wish.<br />

Awww. These two are still one of my favorite Gen 3 couples. <br />

And speaking of couples, Tiger was having a hard time keeping his social up, so I thought it would be a good idea to get him a mate. Have you ever had that moment when your conscious mind suddenly realizes something that your subconscious mind already knew? My instincts told me to check Tiger's information panel.<br />

Yes, I have been referring to Tiger as a <i>he </i>this whole time, when in fact <i>he</i> is a <i>she. </i>The observant reader would have noticed that the social worker said, "Please love <i>her</i> and give <i>her </i>a wonderful home." Yep, I rock as a Simmer.<br />

The next day was the big wedding day. Hope and Barry had a backyard celebration. I have decided to use the bride's and groom's favorite colors as the wedding colors in all weddings going forward. Hope's is seafoam, while Barry's is Irish Green.<br />

They even hired a wedding singer, thanks to <i>Showtime,</i> but I must have hired her too soon.<br />

Finally, the wedding guests arrive. I coordinated the outfits of Hope's family to match her wedding colors. I don't know if I will do this every time. <a href="http://sullivansims.blogspot.com/search/label/weddings" target="_blank">Carla </a>is still the queen of weddings! <br />

Look at Barry chill with his future father-in-law before the ceremony. Does Barry look nervous to you?<br />

Barry really does look like he is unsure about this. Are you kidding me, dude? You've known this girl practically all your life. Can TS3 Sims get left at the altar? I have never seen it happen, but I haven't had too many weddings.<br />
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
Let's see how many Sims we can name! Standing from left to right, we have Tyrone and Faith.<br />
<br />
On the front row (from left to right), we have Venus Schrock (wife of Barry's half-brother Rodney), some Appaloosa townie, Rodney, and Maisy Miller (an Appaloosa Plains native.)<br />
<br />
On the second row (from left to right), we have Lenny Johnson (Barry's stepbrother), Michael, Francisca Baker (future wife of the Hope's brother Honor), and Sean Bumgarner (husband of the Hope's sister Grace).<br />
<br />
On the third row (from left to right) we have, Samson Chesterman (Barry's young half-brother), Mary Johnson (Barry's mother), Rafela Schrock (Barry's half-sister), and Mason (Hope's father).<br />
<br />
Sitting way in the back are the slacker wedding singer and Hope's youngest brother Courage. Hope's other siblings, Honor and Love, were also at the wedding, but were off-screen, as was Barry's other half-sister Beverly. Between Barry and Hope, they have ten siblings!<br />
<br />
Cue the wedding pic spam!<br />

Greetings and welcome back to the Lazlo Legacy. This week we are back at the Russell house. I last posted about the Russells in December, so I had to go back and re-read that entry to remember what happened. Quite a lot happened. The teens went to the prom, turned their imaginary friends real, and Mason and Faith became elders.<br />
<br />
This week, the triplets age up to young adult. As the oldest son, Honor will inherit the house, so that's why this entry is titled "Honor 3.1." </div>

We start the week off with Michael falling prey to someone's shower prank. Thank goodness the dye washes out because yellow is not a good look for Michael. This makes me wonder something though. We know EAxis's genetics are stupid. If a Sim dyes his or her hair color, the dyed color and not the natural color gets passed on the child. Does this work with shower prank dyes too? This might require some experimenting...but not right now.</div>

Honor rolls "Can't Stand Art" as his last trait. I have to say that I was hard on Leaf last week. Honor is actually my least favorite of Generation 3. Look at his traits. He is so bland! It also appears that EA just slapped his teen head on an adult body. He looks exactly the same.</div>

She rolls "Excitable." Charity also has that trait. It's not really going to help with her lifetime wish, but it's not going to hurt either. Animal Lover would have been nice, though.</div>

Aww,,,I'm sorry, Nadine. You're a sweet girl, but you're Face One. I've got enough of those running around, like Honor's bride-to-be. Nadine was so brokenhearted that she and her parents moved out of town. (Ok, I annihilated them. I don't know if Nadine had any fans, but if she did, I'm sorry.)</div>

Take two with the birthday cake is successful. Poor Nadine is still sulking from being dumped. Charity rolled "Savvy Sculptor." I am not sure if she is going to do anything with sculpting or not. It depends on how quickly she can complete her lifetime wish.</div>

Ok, at this point, I installed Showtime and Twallan's latest phase of Story Progression. You may have heard there was a snafu with Simport and Custom Content. Even though EAxis promised us that no custom content would be transferred through SimPort, it happened anyway. Because of that, I removed all of the custom skin tones and hairs from my game. I also scaled down the number of mods I have. I am currently running with just Story Progression (plus the Expanded and Extra modules), Master Controller, Overwatch, Error Trap and Once Read. I have noticed a <i>dramatic</i> increase in the performance of my game. Before Showtime's release, my game would hang every five minutes for a good two or three minutes. The lag was the reason I started moving some of the Lazlos to other hoods. I hardly have any lag now. I suspect either my CC or the Dreamer mod were making the game lag.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Because I took out my CC, my Sims are going to look different. Some of them are not as good looking as they used to be (namely Michael), but it's a sacrifice I'm willing to make to have a smoother game. Now that the game doesn't lag as bad, I could actually keep all of the family together in one neighborhood, but I think I'm going to stick with my plan of moving people to different hoods. On that note, I moved out Hope and Barry to Appaloosa Plains and Charity and Michael to Hidden Springs.</div>

And my grand-puppy, Ted, got adopted. Ted is one of the puppies of my dogs Isabella and Duke. They also had a female named Maya and male named Biscuit. Biscuit also got adopted out.</div>

After brunch, Honor and Francisca took a tour of the theater. I never realized you could tour some of the rabbit holes until I read about it in other Simmers' blogs. You can also, ahem, woohoo or try for baby backstage, but all Honor and Francisca did was make out. After a romantic date, neither one of them rolled the wish to get engaged. *sigh* I'm trying to be patient and wait for the Sims to roll the Engagement wish, but most of Gen 3 seems to have commitment issues.</div>

At least Doreen isn't afraid to take the plunge. Her fiance is an elder, so I hope he lives long enough to make it to the wedding day. This will be her second marriage. I wonder how many spouses she'll outlive.<br />

She already has two points in handiness. I am going to reset her handiness skill to zero with Master Controller so that she doesn't have a head start on completing her lifetime wish. I don't know why I didn't think of using MC before. I can reset all of the spouses so that they don't have an unfair advantage.</div>

Honor rolled a wish to become a business partner. Since his wish is to Live in the Lap of Luxury and he's employed in the Business Career, I think he would be a great real estate mogul. I'm going to let him buy up as many businesses as he can.</div>

This is actually the first time I have ever had a Sim buy a partnership. People on the forums are starting to talk about <i>The Sims 4</i>, but there is so much of <i>The Sims 3</i> to be explored. Partnerships are base game functionality, and I am just getting to them now.</div>

I realized Francisca had the same hairstyle as Faith, so I changed her hair to this one. This hairstyle is really cute and looks great on blondes. I can't remember if this came from the store or from Master Suite. Francisca is still pretty even with EA skin. Francisca and Love look too much alike because I was constantly clicking on Frannie when I meant to click on Love.</div>

Hello and welcome back to the Lazlo Legacy. This week I'm trying something different and writing this post directly in Blogger because Live Writer and Photobucket have not been playing nicely. Anyway, last time River and Leaf moved to Bridgeport. River moved into a big house in the hills with his future in-laws.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
And Leaf moved to this tiny one bedroom apartment. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Before we get underway with this update, we have some business to take care of. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Moving to Bridgeport opens up a world of romantic opportunities for Leaf, and I just wasn't feeling Jessica anymore. Besides, I have seen her with her sunglasses off, and it's not pretty, folks!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There is another lady I have in mind for Leaf, and she is one of my favorite Bridgeport residents.</div>

She's none other than Flo-Flo Chique, sister of Lilly Bo Chique. Maybe it's her name or her outfit, but Flo-Flo has been one of my favs for a long time. I am so excited that I can marry her into the Lazlos. I don't think I've made it a secret that Leaf is my least favorite of Generation 3, but his stock shot up with me when I realized I could hook him up with Flo-Flo. Now, I look forward to playing his lot.</div>

Flo-Flo surprised Leaf and me with a big bite on the wrist. I haven't played with vampires much, so I wasn't expecting her to autonomously bite him like that. I love Leaf's facial expression though, so that's why I used this pic as the cover shot.</div>

Flo-Flo literally left Leaf weak in the knees. Thank goodness she didn't turn him. I haven't decided yet if I want him to become a vampire.</div>

It's a boy! Welcome to the world, Oak Lazlo! He rolled Disciplined and Easily Impressed. I am not sure what his Lifetime Wish will be yet. The two martial arts ones have already been covered. He could become an adventurer, though, because martial arts will be useful for dealing with mummies.</div>

The Sims 3 site will be down for maintenance for several hours tomorrow while they make <a href="http://simsvip.com/?p=6025" target="_blank">the changes to "My Page."</a> A patch may be released tomorrow which means I'll be mod-less until Twallan releases updates. He's usually pretty quick about the updates, though.<br />
<br />
I know the Simport feature is controversial, but I plan to try it out. I also plan to work on the achievements. I am really concerned how these new features coupled with mods is going to affect the stability of my game, so I am thinking I will probably run the game without mods for a few weeks. This means I won't be able to play my Lazlos. I have played through Leaf's lot so I will get his update out in the next week or so. I'm thinking I'll be able to resume posting in mid-to-late April. <br />
<br />
If anyone is interested in Simporting with me (why does that sound so wrong?), feel free to send me a <a href="http://www.thesims3.com/mypage/snarkysims" target="_blank">friend request</a> on The Sims 3 site. (Remember the site will be down for several hours tomorrow starting at 8 AM PST).snarkysimshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14836312060754709863noreply@blogger.com9tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2193252208386288128.post-55327879592703140882012-02-12T14:30:00.001-05:002012-02-12T14:30:01.151-05:00The Lazlo Legacy—River 3.1<p align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiuuOz_JpaV7Olj-IxhY6q-rwbJDm_fgQb94vgfRtkGzeySNX3rM1OHt3FSOuEppEFa5mqq1wxYRx1e64166pEtOJghBYKQMCyOPvcBxPp0JNAfbwc60C1PmuyhhCiQ9m_a38xQPkjQU4w/s1600-h/cover_river_3_1%25255B4%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="cover_river_3_1" border="0" alt="cover_river_3_1" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-FYVlBfnrE8k/TzgSlVFuTlI/AAAAAAAAAk8/vwvns66y1_g/cover_river_3_1_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="644" height="364" /></a></p> <a name='more'></a> <p align="center"></p> <p align="center">Hello, and welcome back to <a href="http://thelazlolegacy.blogspot.com">the Lazlo Legacy</a>.

I get the most fun from watching the Sims interact with each other. Not to mention the fact that my mom tells me all my taste is in my mouth.</p> <p align="center"><a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-_V3FIpF3mXg/TzgSrdJUJzI/AAAAAAAAAmk/1N6ZYHwWRIs/s1600-h/Screenshot-264.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="Screenshot-26" border="0" alt="Screenshot-26" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-g2OtJnqsOpM/TzgSrxNjADI/AAAAAAAAAms/_8BxIkyBTzo/Screenshot-26_thumb1.jpg?imgmax=800" width="644" height="364" /></a></p> <p align="center">While Lil’ was getting a job, River, Ladonna and D. were at the park holding a jam session.</p> <p align="center"><a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-9dmlQvPgtRU/TzgSsW6TQ5I/AAAAAAAAAm0/L8FisMLVEpQ/s1600-h/TS3W-2012-01-21-21-08-04-133.png"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="TS3W 2012-01-21 21-08-04-13" border="0" alt="TS3W 2012-01-21 21-08-04-13" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-G53n1FR0KR8/TzgSs4OozoI/AAAAAAAAAm8/-NkqYZSekxw/TS3W-2012-01-21-21-08-04-13_thumb1.png?imgmax=800" width="644" height="353" /></a></p> <p align="center">The jam session earns River his first Celebrity star.</p> <p align="center"><a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-BHLafteLSlU/TzgStSeL-KI/AAAAAAAAAnE/Qi644tP6lCc/s1600-h/Screenshot-284.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="Screenshot-28" border="0" alt="Screenshot-28" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-JR_TFgaxEAw/TzgStvNWKnI/AAAAAAAAAnM/IH1nW9rH_pM/Screenshot-28_thumb1.jpg?imgmax=800" width="644" height="364" /></a></p> <p align="center">Later on, the rest of the family joins in.

Arlene is Randell’s teenaged sister. I had gotten a message on Sunday that prom was happening Wednesday night. I usually have my Sims ask someone to prom, but I hadn’t gotten around to it with Arlene yet. I didn’t realize other Sims could call and invite my Sim. I was planning to hook Beau up with Love, but took this as a sign that he is more interested in Arlene, so I let her accept the invitation. Oh well, at least Dustin is still available.</p> <p align="center"><a href="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/9ec3029f8997_9E97/TS3W-2012-01-14-12-03-11-66_thumb1.png"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="TS3W-2012-01-14-12-03-11-66_thumb1" border="0" alt="TS3W-2012-01-14-12-03-11-66_thumb1" src="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/9ec3029f8997_9E97/TS3W-2012-01-14-12-03-11-66_thumb1_thumb.png" width="644" height="127" /></a></p> <p align="center">*headdesk* Asia, girl, you’re really being a pain in my backside this week.</p> <p align="center"><a href="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/9ec3029f8997_9E97/Screenshot-3_thumb1.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="Screenshot-3_thumb1" border="0" alt="Screenshot-3_thumb1" src="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/9ec3029f8997_9E97/Screenshot-3_thumb1_thumb.jpg" width="644" height="364" /></a></p> <p align="center">I adore Randell’s parents, Alden and Shera.

Cool. Unfortunately, we lost the gecko because my stupid game wouldn’t save! I hate you Error 12!</p> <p align="center">We’ll see more of the minor pets when we get to Hope and Barry’s lot because Hope has The Zoologist lifetime wish which means she has to capture X number of pets in the wild. I’m thinking of moving Hope and Barry to Appaloosa Plains because my Harmony hood is lagging so bad. It lags so much it takes me nearly 90 minutes to play a single Sim day. I am now capping my population at 150. I had nearly 300 Sims at one point and the game was unplayable. I have seen improvement with the smaller population, but it still lags. I even wiped everyone’s memories from the town, but the game is still too slow. I think splitting the Lazlos up into separate save files is the way to go.</p> <p align="center"><a href="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/4e4aaadca08f_8C82/Screenshot-135.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="Screenshot-135" border="0" alt="Screenshot-135" src="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/4e4aaadca08f_8C82/Screenshot-135_thumb.jpg" width="644" height="364" /></a></p> <p align="center">Anyway, before the Error 12, Phil’s daughter Lauren showed up to be vaccinated.

Of course, Grace is evil, so Leeann might have just been standing in the wrong place at the wrong time.</p> <p align="center"><a href="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/0e3076784b49_6B0B/Screenshot-11.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="Screenshot-11" border="0" alt="Screenshot-11" src="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/0e3076784b49_6B0B/Screenshot-11_thumb.jpg" width="644" height="364" /></a></p> <p align="center">Fortune is embarrassed by his niece’s display.</p> <p align="center"><a href="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/0e3076784b49_6B0B/Screenshot-13.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="Screenshot-13" border="0" alt="Screenshot-13" src="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/0e3076784b49_6B0B/Screenshot-13_thumb.jpg" width="644" height="364" /></a></p> <p align="center">As the Lazlo patriarch, Fortune feels it is his duty to scold Grace.</p> <p align="center"><a href="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/0e3076784b49_6B0B/Screenshot-14.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="Screenshot-14" border="0" alt="Screenshot-14" src="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/0e3076784b49_6B0B/Screenshot-14_thumb.jpg" width="644" height="364" /></a></p> <p align="center">Grace ignores Fortune and heads for Mikel’s bar to practice mixology.

I don’t know if that is EA functionality or if that was caused by Twallan’s Woohooer mod. (By the way, Twallan has moved his mods to a new site. They can now be found at <a href="http://nraas.wikispaces.com/">http://nraas.wikispaces.com/</a>.)</p> <p align="center"><a href="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/0e3076784b49_6B0B/Screenshot-20.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="Screenshot-20" border="0" alt="Screenshot-20" src="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/0e3076784b49_6B0B/Screenshot-20_thumb.jpg" width="644" height="364" /></a></p> <p align="center">She accepted his invite, so I’m taking that as a sign that she’s picked Alan! Did you think it would turn out any other way?

But he’s actually using the “What do they say about me?” interaction. I first noticed that interaction when Sean was asking Mason for Grace’s hand. It came with <em>Generations.</em></p> <p align="center"><a href="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/0e3076784b49_6B0B/Screenshot-22.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="Screenshot-22" border="0" alt="Screenshot-22" src="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/0e3076784b49_6B0B/Screenshot-22_thumb.jpg" width="644" height="364" /></a></p> <p align="center">It is a way for a Sim to find out what their Romantic Reputation is. Alan still has the Naughty reputation. He doesn’t have enough Lifetime Happiness points to get the Clean Slate reward, but he did purchase the No Jealousy reward. I  have heard the No Jealousy reward was fixed in the 1.29 patch.</p> <p align="center"><a href="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/0e3076784b49_6B0B/Screenshot-27.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="Screenshot-27" border="0" alt="Screenshot-27" src="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/0e3076784b49_6B0B/Screenshot-27_thumb.jpg" width="644" height="364" /></a></p> <p align="center">When they got back home Harmony agreed to give Alan a second chance, so they are going steady again!

One of you needs to roll the wish to get married first. </p> <p align="center">Oh, you’re probably wondering what happens to Mikel now.

Sure, she wants to talk to him and pillow fight with him a lot, but nothing romantic. But the major strike against Mikel is his genetics. He is cursed with the face one template. I’ve been putting together a family tree of the town on <a href="http://familyecho.com/?p=QFMY2&c=xpxkwdyigr&f=298891719580965474">Family Echo</a>, and I noticed many of the townies have the exact same face. This is because EAxis is lazy when creating townies. They all get the face one template which is the first face you see in CAS. </p> <p align="center"><a href="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/0e3076784b49_6B0B/Screenshot-28.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="Screenshot-28" border="0" alt="Screenshot-28" src="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/0e3076784b49_6B0B/Screenshot-28_thumb.jpg" width="407" height="484" /></a><a href="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/0e3076784b49_6B0B/Screenshot-113.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="Screenshot-113" border="0" alt="Screenshot-113" src="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/0e3076784b49_6B0B/Screenshot-113_thumb.jpg" width="413" height="484" /></a></p> <p align="center">For example, here’s Bree and Alan’s sister-in-law, Dalma.

They may have different skin tones and eyebrow shapes, but the face is the same. </p> <p align="center">There are many more townies walking around with these faces. Left uncheck, everyone will start looking the same. I took some  drastic measures and annihilated a good number of sims from the hood. For the ones that I needed to keep because they were related to a potential Lazlo spouse, I used Twallan’s story progression to prevent them from having any more babies. I then configured the SP mod to generate townies based on Sims in my Family Bin.  (That list of families you see at the bottom of the Edit Town screen.). I also had to install Twallan’s Register mod because otherwise EA would just keep generating townies to fill the roles in town. The Register mod has an option to replace role Sims with residents, so SP generates the residents and then I use Register to assign them to roles (e.g. Mixologist, Bouncer, Musician, etc.). Service Sims, like maids and social workers, are still generated by EAxis, so I have my Story Progression set up to prevent them from marrying into the town. The Register Mod is also useful for controlling the stray pet population, and it can be used to completely ban deer and raccoons from your game.</p> <p align="center"><a href="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/0e3076784b49_6B0B/Screenshot-118.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="Screenshot-118" border="0" alt="Screenshot-118" src="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/0e3076784b49_6B0B/Screenshot-118_thumb.jpg" width="644" height="364" /></a></p> <p align="center">This is one of the newly generated townies, Valerie Dodge. She’s very pretty and she’s not a face one!</p> <p align="center">So once I learned about the face one problem, there was no way I was letting Mikel pro-create with Harmony. Hopefully Janelle’s genetics are powerful enough to overcome the face one virus. Seriously, that’s how I treated it. Every time a new immigrant showed up in Harmony, I checked them out in CAS. If they had face one, they were annihilated instantly. I kept Alan’s sister-in-law and brother-in-law around because the Murphys have very strong genes.</p> <p align="center"><a href="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/0e3076784b49_6B0B/TS3W-2012-01-02-18-18-25-10.png"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="TS3W 2012-01-02 18-18-25-10" border="0" alt="TS3W 2012-01-02 18-18-25-10" src="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/0e3076784b49_6B0B/TS3W-2012-01-02-18-18-25-10_thumb.png" width="644" height="158" /></a></p> <p align="center">I hope the Irvine genes are strong too, because Jessica’s brother, Jake, just knocked up the daughter of a face one man. (Her mother was an Esparza, a family imported from Los Aniegos.)</p> <p align="center">Anyway, that’s enough genetics talk. I wanted to give Mikel and Janelle time to get to know each other so they went out clubbing.</p> <p align="center"><a href="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/0e3076784b49_6B0B/Screenshot-31.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="Screenshot-31" border="0" alt="Screenshot-31" src="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/0e3076784b49_6B0B/Screenshot-31_thumb.jpg" width="644" height="364" /></a></p> <p align="center">I think they make a cute couple.</p> <p align="center"><a href="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/0e3076784b49_6B0B/Screenshot-32.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="Screenshot-32" border="0" alt="Screenshot-32" src="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/0e3076784b49_6B0B/Screenshot-32_thumb.jpg" width="644" height="364" /></a></p> <p align="center">I love Janelle’s makeover.

Lorelei invited all of the girls in the neighborhood.

She is Lorelei’s niece after all. Check out that chin. That is the Murphy chin,  and every Murphy has it. It definitely comes from Colin because his ex-wife Jennifer  has two sons with two different men and neither one of them has the chin. Ruby takes very much after her grandpa. She has his hair color and eye shape as well.</p> <p align="center"><a href="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/0e3076784b49_6B0B/Screenshot-51.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="Screenshot-51" border="0" alt="Screenshot-51" src="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/0e3076784b49_6B0B/Screenshot-51_thumb.jpg" width="644" height="364" /></a></p> <p align="center">Even Lorelei has the chin to some extent.</p> <p align="center"><a href="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/0e3076784b49_6B0B/Screenshot-48.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="Screenshot-48" border="0" alt="Screenshot-48" src="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/0e3076784b49_6B0B/Screenshot-48_thumb.jpg" width="644" height="364" /></a></p> <p align="center">The girl on the left is Alexis Albright, the little sister of Summer’s boyfriend Randell.

I had put out sleeping bags on the balcony for them, but they all pulled one out of their inventory and used that one instead. The slumber party had started at 6 PM.  I think the next time I throw one, I’ll start it earlier. I’m hoping that means the kids will have more time to play before they go to bed. They woke up at 7 AM and immediately went home.</p> <p align="center"><a href="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/0e3076784b49_6B0B/Screenshot-55.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="Screenshot-55" border="0" alt="Screenshot-55" src="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/0e3076784b49_6B0B/Screenshot-55_thumb.jpg" width="644" height="364" /></a></p> <p align="center">While Lorelei was having her slumber party, Mikel and Janelle were out on their second date at a poolside club. I spent all night bouncing back and forth between the slumber party and the date. Mikel ordered a ridiculously expensive shrimp cocktail, and Janelle didn’t even sit at the same table with him. EAxis, fix this please! I also hope we get fully-functioning restaurants back someday.</p> <p align="center"><a href="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/0e3076784b49_6B0B/Screenshot-59.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="Screenshot-59" border="0" alt="Screenshot-59" src="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/0e3076784b49_6B0B/Screenshot-59_thumb.jpg" width="644" height="364" /></a></p> <p align="center">Of course, they had to get in the hot tub.</p> <p align="center"><a href="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/0e3076784b49_6B0B/Screenshot-60.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="Screenshot-60" border="0" alt="Screenshot-60" src="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/0e3076784b49_6B0B/Screenshot-60_thumb.jpg" width="644" height="364" /></a></p> <p align="center">Things definitely got steamy!</p> <p align="center"><a href="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/0e3076784b49_6B0B/TS3W-2012-01-05-22-38-51-07.png"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="TS3W 2012-01-05 22-38-51-07" border="0" alt="TS3W 2012-01-05 22-38-51-07" src="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/0e3076784b49_6B0B/TS3W-2012-01-05-22-38-51-07_thumb.png" width="377" height="484" /></a><a href="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/0e3076784b49_6B0B/TS3W-2012-01-05-23-02-42-77.png"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="TS3W 2012-01-05 23-02-42-77" border="0" alt="TS3W 2012-01-05 23-02-42-77" src="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/0e3076784b49_6B0B/TS3W-2012-01-05-23-02-42-77_thumb.png" width="399" height="484" /></a></p> <p align="center">Both of them are interested in taking the relationship to the next level. Neither one of them is a Lazlo, so Strict Family Values doesn’t necessarily apply to them. But, it’s the end of the week, so we’ll have to wait until next time to see where things go.

Trust is cuddling an adorable panda bear that comes with the “Lunar New Year” store set which was generously gifted to me by seaweedy. I could not think of a more perfect gift for the Lazlos!

Fortune and Colin crack me up. I think they have a bromance going on because they are always rolling wishes to interact with each other.</p> <p align="center"><a href="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/6933728d668d_C0C5/TS3W-2011-12-26-12-40-12-38_thumb1.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="TS3W 2011-12-26 12-40-12-38_thumb[1]" border="0" alt="TS3W 2011-12-26 12-40-12-38_thumb[1]" src="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/6933728d668d_C0C5/TS3W-2011-12-26-12-40-12-38_thumb1_thumb.jpg" width="354" height="484" /></a></p> <p align="center">See what I mean?

She is only 10,000 Simoleons away from topping the Writer career. I sent her to the consignment store to sell some books, when I noticed one of the nice cameras was on sale.

I thought that name was funny. I also see that Waylon has turquoise eyes! They must have come from a phantom grandparent because neither of his parents have turquoise eyes. Unfortunately, Waylon is no longer with us. When I opened the hood one day, all my babies and toddlers were invisible! I reset Promise and Peace and they became visible again,   but it didn’t work for some of the other toddlers. I was able to save Barry’s half-brother, Samson Chesterman, but I lost his other  little half-brother, Lance Fleming. I was also able to save Alan’s niece, Ruby Murphy. Sadly, all the other toddlers and babies are gone. <img style="border-bottom-style: none; border-left-style: none; border-top-style: none; border-right-style: none" class="wlEmoticon wlEmoticon-sadsmile" alt="Sad smile" src="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/6933728d668d_C0C5/wlEmoticon-sadsmile.png" /> </p> <p align="center"><a href="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/6933728d668d_C0C5/Screenshot-123_thumb1.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="Screenshot-123_thumb[1]" border="0" alt="Screenshot-123_thumb[1]" src="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/6933728d668d_C0C5/Screenshot-123_thumb1_thumb.jpg" width="644" height="364" /></a></p> <p align="center">Fortune and Tracey spent their last night as adults baby-sitting their grandkids and watching television.

I’m laughing at Leaf in the background there. He is definitely his father’s son. Fortune makes that face all the time.</p> <p align="center">I tried to age Chance up too, since he and Fortune are twins, but when I clicked on the birthday cake, he didn’t show up in the list. Did EA change something? I know you used to be able to throw birthday parties for visitors. Oh, well, I’ll have to wait until I get back to his house in the rotation for him to age up.

I wanted to earn the points for having an imaginary friend and for having an imaginary friend turned real legitimately, so Fortune (who maxed the Logic skill and learned all the potions without cheats) made this potion.

He has green hair. His traits are Hates the Outdoors, Unlucky, and Angler. Hmm.. Michael is an Angler too. Interesting. I don’t know if I ever officially said what my naming theme for the Imaginary friends is. They are named after reality television stars because I think those people are “imaginary” celebrities. Kaysar is named after a contestant from Season 6 of <em>Big Brother</em> (America). Most of the Russell imaginary friends were named after people from <em>The Jersey Shore</em>, though Janelle also came from BB6.

Welcome back to <a href="http://thelazlolegacy.blogspot.com">the Lazlo Legacy</a>. For this first week in 2012, we are visiting the lot of Chance Lazlo. Before we get started, I wanted to cover a few housekeeping items:</p> <p align="center">1) I have converted this blog to an official Sims 3 Completion Challenge. This challenge was created by Robin of the Sims3Challenges Yahoo group. It encourages you to “try everything” the game has to offer. Since my goal for the Lazlos is to complete every lifetime wish, max every skill, and top  every career, the Completion Challenge is right up my alley. The rules even allow for using a mod to rotate houses. Please see the <a href="http://thelazlolegacy.blogspot.com/p/family-census.html">rules of the challenge</a> for more details.</p> <p align="center">2) I received photo-editing software for Christmas, so I am in the process of going back through my old posts and enhancing the photos. You’ll also notice that entries will now have a “cover” photo. I just want to spiff up the blog. <img style="border-bottom-style: none; border-left-style: none; border-top-style: none; border-right-style: none" class="wlEmoticon wlEmoticon-smile" alt="Smile" src="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/a03427fb6c46_F56F/wlEmoticon-smile.png" /></p> <p align="center">3) I have been asked by more than one person about the status of my other blogs. I was hoping to make some progress on my <a href="http://megamaxissims.blogspot.com">Mega Maxis</a> blog over the holidays, but when I sat down to play the save, my heart wasn’t in it. I enjoy my Lazlos so much that when I try to play other saves, I feel a yearning to go back to the Lazlos. With work and dealing with my mom, when I sit down to play The Sims 3, I really want to enjoy what I’m doing. So for now, I’m going to be concentrating exclusively on the Lazlos. My goal is to publish weekly on Sundays. </p> <p align="center">Ok, now on to this week’s post…</p> <p align="center"><a href="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/a03427fb6c46_F56F/Screenshot-39_thumb1.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="Screenshot-39_thumb[1]" border="0" alt="Screenshot-39_thumb[1]" src="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/a03427fb6c46_F56F/Screenshot-39_thumb1_thumb.jpg" width="644" height="364" /></a></p> <p align="center">The first order of business was moving Chance and his family to a new lot. I was getting sick of how cramped their house was. The final straw was when I invited over the extended family members for Sunday night dinner and Chance couldn’t greet them because of routing errors. Good bye and good riddance. Say hello to their new home which happens to be right next door to Chance’s twin brother, Fortune. This house comes from the neighborhood <a href="http://www.thesims3.com/assetDetail.html?assetId=3388856">Volcano Cove</a> by LoCatus. </p> <p align="center">While I’m on the subject of where my lots come from, I would be remiss if I did not acknowledge Wendy, a.k.a hillcrest1414, who built a good number of the houses I use in Harmony, including the lot where Fortune’s family lives. Wendy owned the Sims 3 Real Estate website. Sadly, she passed away last month after a valiant fight with brain cancer. I did not have the pleasure of knowing Wendy personally, but I am grateful for her work and her dedication to the Sims community. Her houses are currently being hosted at the <a href="http://www.flyingacres.com/NS/index.php?board=114.0">Neighborly Sims forum</a>. Wendy, you will be deeply missed!</p> <p align="center"><a href="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/a03427fb6c46_F56F/Screenshot-66_thumb1.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="Screenshot-66_thumb[1]" border="0" alt="Screenshot-66_thumb[1]" src="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/a03427fb6c46_F56F/Screenshot-66_thumb1_thumb.jpg" width="644" height="364" /></a></p> <p align="center">Mason achieving his lifetime wish last week leaves Nichol as the only member of Generation 2 who hasn’t achieved hers. She has to achieve her LTW in order for her traits, skills, and career points to count towards the Completion Challenge goals. The only Sims who will be able to accumulate points towards the challenge are the Lazlos who are born in game, the Generation 2 spouses, Leeann, and Michael. This is because these Sims have never been under the control of Twallan’s Story Progression so they have not received an unfair boost in their skills and career advancement. </p> <p align="center">So, it’s back to our old sparring routine for Nichol and Chance.</p> <p align="center"><a href="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/a03427fb6c46_F56F/Screenshot-68_thumb1.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="Screenshot-68_thumb[1]" border="0" alt="Screenshot-68_thumb[1]" src="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/a03427fb6c46_F56F/Screenshot-68_thumb1_thumb.jpg" width="644" height="364" /></a></p> <p align="center"></p> <p align="center">I think Nichol is as weary from all this sparring as I am. It’s written all over her face.</p> <p align="center"><a href="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/a03427fb6c46_F56F/Screenshot-69_thumb1.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="Screenshot-69_thumb[1]" border="0" alt="Screenshot-69_thumb[1]" src="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/a03427fb6c46_F56F/Screenshot-69_thumb1_thumb.jpg" width="644" height="364" /></a></p> <p align="center">She didn’t let up on Chance one bit though. She kept defeating him with the same move—a kick to the face.</p> <p align="center"><a href="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/a03427fb6c46_F56F/Screenshot-67_thumb1.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="Screenshot-67_thumb[1]" border="0" alt="Screenshot-67_thumb[1]" src="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/a03427fb6c46_F56F/Screenshot-67_thumb1_thumb.jpg" width="644" height="364" /></a></p> <p align="center">Poor Chance! He looks like he’s about to hit the ground like a ton of bricks.</p> <p align="center"><a href="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/a03427fb6c46_F56F/TS3W-2011-12-18-21-03-56-03_thumb1.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="TS3W 2011-12-18 21-03-56-03_thumb[1]" border="0" alt="TS3W 2011-12-18 21-03-56-03_thumb[1]" src="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/a03427fb6c46_F56F/TS3W-2011-12-18-21-03-56-03_thumb1_thumb.jpg" width="644" height="316" /></a></p> <p align="center">It paid off because Nichol got to level 10! Now she only needs to get to level 10 in Athletics to achieve her lifetime wish of Physical Perfection. She’s already at level 7, so hopefully she can accomplish it this week.</p> <p align="center"><a href="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/a03427fb6c46_F56F/Screenshot-70_thumb1.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="Screenshot-70_thumb[1]" border="0" alt="Screenshot-70_thumb[1]" src="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/a03427fb6c46_F56F/Screenshot-70_thumb1_thumb.jpg" width="644" height="364" /></a></p> <p align="center">And here she is, sporting her black and gold belt.</p> <p align="center"><a href="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/a03427fb6c46_F56F/TS3W-2011-12-18-21-08-32-85_thumb1.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="TS3W 2011-12-18 21-08-32-85_thumb[1]" border="0" alt="TS3W 2011-12-18 21-08-32-85_thumb[1]" src="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/a03427fb6c46_F56F/TS3W-2011-12-18-21-08-32-85_thumb1_thumb.jpg" width="347" height="484" /></a></p> <p align="center">I want to go back to China about as much as I want a hole in my head, but 17,000 is a <em>lot</em> of Lifetime Happiness points!</p> <p align="center"><a href="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/a03427fb6c46_F56F/TS3W-2011-12-18-21-15-06-50_thumb1.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="TS3W 2011-12-18 21-15-06-50_thumb[1]" border="0" alt="TS3W 2011-12-18 21-15-06-50_thumb[1]" src="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/a03427fb6c46_F56F/TS3W-2011-12-18-21-15-06-50_thumb1_thumb.jpg" width="644" height="193" /></a></p> <p align="center">Aww… Nawwaf is about to die.

He tried to get frisky with her and I was worried another baby was going to be on the way. Luckily, I was spared.</p> <p align="center">I was also distracted….very distracted. I am going to apologize in advance for what (or I should say <em>who</em>) is going to dominate the rest of this entry.</p> <p align="center"><a href="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/a03427fb6c46_F56F/Screenshot-74_thumb1.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="Screenshot-74_thumb[1]" border="0" alt="Screenshot-74_thumb[1]" src="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/a03427fb6c46_F56F/Screenshot-74_thumb1_thumb.jpg" width="644" height="364" /></a></p> <p align="center">I heard a noise outside and found this stray dog napping on the Lazlos’ bench. My first reaction was, “Awww…..” My second reaction was, “Me wants him.” My third reaction was “Awww…..” again.</p> <p align="center">Now, I have heard people mention in other blogs that it is difficult to adopt a stray because they rarely come back. I didn’t want to risk losing this fellow, so I used Master Controller and added him to the household.</p> <p align="center"><a href="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/a03427fb6c46_F56F/Screenshot-75_thumb1.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="Screenshot-75_thumb[1]" border="0" alt="Screenshot-75_thumb[1]" src="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/a03427fb6c46_F56F/Screenshot-75_thumb1_thumb.jpg" width="644" height="364" /></a></p> <p align="center">Say hello to the newest member of the Lazlo clan, Xiaobai. I wanted to honor the Lazlo’s Chinese heritage so I googled “Chinese pet names.” I found out that Xiaobai means “Little White.” Ok, he’s not little, but he is white, so I thought the name fit. I noticed Xiaobai was already an elder and his life bar was full, so I aged him back down to Adult with Master Controller.</p> <p align="center"><a href="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/a03427fb6c46_F56F/Screenshot-76_thumb1.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="Screenshot-76_thumb[1]" border="0" alt="Screenshot-76_thumb[1]" src="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/a03427fb6c46_F56F/Screenshot-76_thumb1_thumb.jpg" width="644" height="364" /></a></p> <p align="center">Nichol broke herself away from Chance and came out to greet Xiaobai.</p> <p align="center"><a href="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/a03427fb6c46_F56F/Screenshot-78_thumb1.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="Screenshot-78_thumb[1]" border="0" alt="Screenshot-78_thumb[1]" src="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/a03427fb6c46_F56F/Screenshot-78_thumb1_thumb.jpg" width="644" height="364" /></a></p> <p align="center">After eating his dinner, Xiaobai settled into the doggy bed that I placed in Serendipity’s room.</p> <p align="center"><a href="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/a03427fb6c46_F56F/TS3W-2011-12-20-19-48-46-97_thumb1.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="TS3W 2011-12-20 19-48-46-97_thumb[1]" border="0" alt="TS3W 2011-12-20 19-48-46-97_thumb[1]" src="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo4/a03427fb6c46_F56F/TS3W-2011-12-20-19-48-46-97_thumb1_thumb.jpg" width="644" height="164" /></a></p> <p align="center">Wow, the womanizer and the man eater finally get together.

Maybe they are on their best behavior because they know she has the power to Totally Annihilate them at will. I’m sure you’ve figured it out, but this is my simself. Meet Temesha Snarky. My husband Daniel’s simself has also been added to the hood, along with our two Yorkies, Isabella and Duke. I won’t be playing my simself’s family directly, but I am hoping one of my descendants marries a Lazlo. There is a high probability of that happening because aging is turned off for me, hubby, and our doggies.</div>

Incidentally, I have no idea why the Sims reacted to sim!Temesha the way they did. Temesha Snarky isn’t even a celebrity. She did a cute little fist pump when they all recognized her though. I wish I had caught it on camera.</div>

Aww…. I approve! I think they make an adorable couple. Ok, the boys are taken care of. That only leaves Love. </div>
<div align="center">
I guess I forgot to mention that Love and Courage grew up. Courage rolled Friendly as his fourth trait to go along with Brave, Clumsy, and Neat. Like I had planned all along, his lifetime wish is Firefighter Super Hero. He’s definitely going to need to save up for the Young Again lifetime reward.</div>
<div align="center">
Love added Bookworm to her list of traits. She is also Disciplined, Perceptive, and Neurotic. Her lifetime wish is Pervasive Private Eye. I think Love and Courage will be affectionately known as “The <i>Ambitions</i> Twins.” With them aging to teen, Mason has completed his Surrounded By Family lifetime wish. Congratulations, Mason! </div>

Mason may have accomplished his LTW, but I’m not sure he is going to make it to the top of the Thief Branch before he passes away. I’m not going to use the Age Freeze potion on him because the Sim with the Master Thief LTW will need to top this career anyway. Sorry, Mason!</div>
<div align="center">
While we’re on the subject of potions, I remembered that Faith had gotten the Imaginary Friend potion from Fortune. I couldn’t wait to see what TheSituation really looked like. I checked Faith’s inventory, but the potion was nowhere to be found. I even checked the Family Inventory, and it wasn’t there either. At some point, I think the Stasis option got turned off of the Russell household because when I first entered their lot, the wishes I had locked in were missing. In that time, Faith must have sold the potion. I tell you, I was aggravated then. I didn’t want to go through the process of switching to Fortune’s lot so that he could give her another potion only to have that one vanish on me too. So, I used Master Controller to max Faith’s Logic skill. I then chained her to the Chemistry Set until she discovered the Imaginary Friend Potion. So, yeah, I cheated. But I don’t care because Fortune learned the potion without any cheats. </div>
<div align="center">
Anyway, I had Faith make four potions to bring all of the imaginary friends to life. (Love’s IF will no longer come to life, so that just leaves us with four.) First up was Hope’s Imaginary Friend, PaulyD.</div>

Wow! I had never turned an imaginary friend real before. I had no idea they could get purple hair and turquoise eyes. I really want those eyes in my Lazlo bloodline! However, I like Honor with Francisca, so poor Snooki also got the boot.</div>

She got the eyes too and a cool hair color. Uh-oh, Nadine, there might be a change in plans. I decided to keep Janelle in the house until I figured out if she or Nadine would end up with Courage.</div>

I gave Michael a dye job because I prefer the purple hair on him. Yes, I’m calling him <i>Michael</i> now. I’m sick of typing TheSituation, and <i>Michael </i>is the real name of the real “The Situation.” I noticed that all the imaginary friends were reasonably attractive and some of them got interesting hair and eye colors. It might be neat to do a legacy where the torch holder always marries his/her IF. I figured I was not the first person to have this idea, so I googled “Sims 3 Imaginary Friend Legacy,” and came across <a href="http://desmera3.wordpress.com/">Desmera’s Imaginary Legacy</a>. She has a very unique approach to the Legacy Challenge, and her characters are adorable. I actually cried when her founding couple passed away. I didn’t even cry when Justice passed away, people! I highly recommend that you check out her blog.</div>
<div align="center">
Don’t worry, I am not planning to turn this into an Imaginary Friend Legacy (though I may continue the trend for Charity’s line only.)</div>
<div align="center">
Anyway, as you can see, one of Michael’s traits is Angler. His other traits are Great Kisser, Dramatic, Animal Lover, and Childish. Childish does make sense for a former Imaginary Friend. He’s also my first Sim with the Dramatic trait, and he got one of the new traits that came with Pets. He also has the Presenting the Perfect Private Aquarium lifetime wish. Since Charity wants to be a Chess Legend, I foresee the two of them spending a lot of the time in the park. </div>

Of course Barry, Francisca, and Nadine were invited since they date Hope, Honor, and Courage. Honor also invited cousin Serendipity and her boyfriend Jeff. That left three slots for potential Love interests. So, Honor invited Justin Irvine, who is the little brother of Leaf’s girlfriend, Jessica. He also invited Dustin and Beau Broke. Now, when I thought I had lost <strike>TheSituation </strike>Michael, I was planning to hook Charity up with Beau Broke because I thought the name Charity Broke was funny. Now, it looks like we might get a Love Broke.</div>

Anyway, the dress code is Swimwear because what heterosexual teenage boy with access to a hot tub is <i>not</i> going to invite over girls in bikinis?</div>

Lenny Johnson (front, right) crashed the party. He’s the first cousin once removed of Serendipity’s friend, Asia Johnson. Beau is standing behind Barry, and Dustin is standing behind Lenny. (Apparently, Story Progression does not know its Sims 2 canon. Beau should be blond.)</div>

Lenny took a liking to Serendipity. You can’t see it, but her boyfriend is standing right next to Lenny. I thought I was going to have to keep my eye on those two. Lenny has that hair/skin tone combination that I can’t stand. Stay away from my Lazlos!</div>

<div align="center">
Anyway, the grounding also caused all of the visiting teens to leave. So again, I had them on the lot for all of two minutes. *headdesk* I give up.

Faith and Mason arrived just as River got home. By the way, I gave him a new hairstyle (from The Sims 3 store).</div>

Lil’s (River’s girlfriend) parents are both musicians, so this home is perfect for them. They have a mini-stage right in their living room. That’s Lil’s little brother, Lyle, doing his homework on the floor there.</div>

They also have a digital aquarium. Faith is holding her nose because the Piddy’s also have laundry piled up. I think I know why this is happening. In an attempt to keep the service population down, I turned off the option in Twallan’s Story Progression mod that allows inactives to hire maids. I'm going to turn that back on.</div>

And this is her dad, D. Piddy. Um, yeah. I didn’t name them. They are Los Aniegos originals. I do have to give credit to coasterboi or to whoever made the Piddys and the Johnsons. Their features really make them “look” black rather than looking like Europeans with a very dark tan. Nice work!</div>

Faith just wants to make sure River is doing well. She has become such the mother hen. She’s always turning up autonomously at people’s houses.</div>

This will likely be the last Lazlo post for 2011.<strike> I am trying to finish Round 1 of my <a href="http://megamaxissims.blogspot.com/">Mega Maxis</a> blog before the end of the year, and I have seven houses to get through in the next two weeks.</strike> [Edited 12/30/2011: Not gonna happen.] My resolution for 2012 is to maintain a regular posting schedule. I’m planning to post to my Lazlo blog on Sundays<strike> and to the Mega Maxis blog on Sundays and Wednesdays</strike>. I hope all my readers have a wonderful holiday season. See you in the new year!</div>

Welcome back to <a href="http://thelazlolegacy.blogspot.com/">The Lazlo Legacy</a>. This week we are visiting the lot of Grace Russell.</div>
<div align="center">

<div align="center">
Grace immediately tries to get on the good side of her mother-in-law-to-be, Hilary Bumgarner, by cooking breakfast.</div>
<a name='more'></a><div align="center">

<div align="center">
Grace’s efforts are wasted because Hilary is more interested in discussing her son’s future.</div>
<div align="center">
<b>Hilary:</b> Sean, dear, I just know you could become a tennis pro. I can see you winning Simbledon some day!</div>
<div align="center">

<div align="center">
<b>Sean:</b> Mother, I’m surprised. I assumed you wanted me to become a World Renowned Surgeon like Father.</div>

<div align="center">
Sean’s course is already set, however. He is going to become the Leader of the Free World, so he heads to City Hall to get a job.</div>
<div align="center">
<a href="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo3/The-Lazlo_12A04/Screenshot-95.jpg"><img alt="Screenshot-95" border="0" height="364" src="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo3/The-Lazlo_12A04/Screenshot-95_thumb.jpg" style="background-image: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; display: inline; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" title="Screenshot-95" width="644" /></a></div>
<div align="center">
He runs into Elaine Irvine, the mother of Leaf’s girlfriend, Jessica.</div>
<div align="center">
<b>Sean:</b> Good morning, Mrs. Irvine.</div>
<div align="center">
<b>Elaine:</b> Why, Sean, it’s wonderful to see you. My, you’ve grown up into quite a ruggedly, handsome, virile young man!</div>
<div align="center">
<b>Sean</b>: Thanks.</div>
<div align="center">
<b>Elaine</b>: What brings you down to City Hall?</div>
<div align="center">
<b>Sean:</b> I just joined the Mayor’s re-election campaign.</div>
<div align="center">
<b>Elaine</b>: Oh, so you’re joining the political arena? Well, you can count on me to become one of your most <i>dedicated constituents</i>.</div>
<div align="center">
<b>Me</b>: Sean, step away from the cougar right now.</div>
<div align="center">

<div align="center">
I mentioned in an earlier post that Sunday night is family night, so Grace invited her family over. Her father, Mason, was the first to show up.</div>
<div align="center">
<b>Me</b>: Say, Sean, is there anything you’d like to discuss with your girlfriend’s father?</div>
<div align="center">
<b>Sean:</b> Nope, I’m good.</div>
<div align="center">

<div align="center">
Grace’s sisters, Love and Hope, also came. The girls seem enamored of their brother-in-law-to-be. They fawned over him like he was a movie star. To tell the truth, Sean does reminds me of someone. I just can’t put my finger on who. Maybe if he had fangs it would become clearer….</div>

Most Likely to Take Over the World? Back off, that’s Leaf’s mission. With Grace entering the Film Career and Sean climbing the Political Ladder, they are poised to become the Power Couple of Harmony.</div>

After graduating, she switched back into her everyday attire.</div>
<div align="center">
<b>Me:</b> Why did you get out of your robe so soon? I wasn’t done taking pictures.</div>
<div align="center">
<b>Grace:</b> I had to. It’s hot as Hades outside. When are we going to get snow?</div>
<div align="center">
<b>Me</b>: Apparently not in <a href="http://thesims.com/showtime">March</a>. </div>

Lauren Kline is Sean’s sister. He also has a toddler sister named Jane who I left behind with Lauren and her husband, Kirby, when I moved Sean, Hilary, and Phil (Sean’s dad) out of the family home. (I just didn’t feel like dealing with a toddler.)</div>

Welcome back to <a href="http://thelazlolegacy.blogspot.com/">the Lazlo Legacy</a> with Harmony Lazlo. Last time, Harmony dumped her high school sweetheart, Alan Murphy. Thank you so much, <i>Generations </i>Romantic Reputation System. Harmony drowned her sorrows at a local pub and made eyes at bartender Mikel Pratt. Mikel moved in, and we’re now waiting with bated breath to see who Harmony chooses.</div>

Alan’s first mission is to clean up his reputation. He has four love interests, so he needs to invite each one over and ask them to just be friends.</div>

If Mikel can prance around in his skivvies, so can Alan! Incidentally, Alan’s lifetime wish is The Perfect Garden, and Harmony needs gardening skill for the Science career. See how perfect they are for each other? Mikel is a level ten mixologist with the lifetime wish of Celebrated Five-Star Chef, so he’ll benefit from the harvest as well.</div>

By the end of the week, Alan had also made friends with Harmony, but Harmony still hadn’t rolled any romantic wishes for either Alan or Mikel.</div>

“and even this apron can’t hide my fabulous abs.” For some reason, I "hear" Mikel with a Russian accent. And so the love triangle continues. Who will she pick? Hopefully, we’ll find out next time we play her lot. Up next, Grace is all grown up and finally moving in with her man. Stay tuned…</div>

Elsewhere in the house, River is working on his homework. In an earlier post, I mentioned that I love his slumber outfit, well here it is. He just needs a cup of tea to make the look perfect.</div>

In a rare moment of togetherness, the triplets work on their homework. This post should be subtitled “I Fail as a Simmer.” I haven’t been good about maintaining family relationships. Even though, they were all in the womb together, they are only acquaintances.</div>

Leeann wanted to work out, so she headed to the gym. She is the most active coach potato I know. She’s always rolling wishes to gain an athletic skill point. If she hadn’t inherited her dad’s body type, she probably wouldn’t have a weight problem.</div>

Aw, Leeann wants to be friends with Alan. I hope you haven’t forgotten about the love triangle between Harmony, Alan, and Mikel. Harmony’s lot will be next. Maybe she’ll make a decision. Alan appears to have Leeann’s vote.</div>

Like his dad and wife, Guardian also opted for an evening out. He’s reading a book that his boss recommended to improve his culinary skills. Guardian has had it pretty easy. He achieved his lifetime wish of Culinary Librarian as a teen, and Justice had already maxed the Culinary skill. Guardian only needs to top the Culinary career track before he earns his freedom from my micromanagement.</div>

Speaking of micromanagement, Tracey is enjoying a reprieve in the hot tub. I normally have her chained to her computer so that she can top the Writing Career. She’s at level 9 and only needs to earn 10,000 more Simoleons to max the career. I am so not having another Sim attempt to max that career. Fortune knows the Young Again potion, so I’ll use it on Tracey if I have to.</div>

Given the Punishment System, the Romantic Reputation System, the mood swings, and the mid-life crises, I am having a very hard time appreciating what <i>Generations</i> brings to the table. If I wasn’t so obsessed about having all of the expansion packs, I’d uninstall this one. If I had to rank the EPs, it would probably be a tie between <i>Pets</i> and <i>Ambitions</i>. <i>Late Night</i> would come third, followed by <i>World Adventures</i> and <i>Generations</i>. That is how much <i>Generations</i> annoys me.</div>

[Edited 12/30/2011: I think I have been too hard on <i>Generations</i>. It has actually added a lot of content and makes family life much richer. Now that I know how to deal with its quirks, I appreciate it a whole lot more.] </div>

Okay, I promised some <i>Pets</i> content in this entry, so here it is; the creepy, stalkerish Ice Cream truck. This thing parks itself outside your house for hours on end. Freaky. Unfortunately, there are no four-legged friends in this entry because no one has rolled a wish for a pet. I have to give EAxis credit because I was totally expecting my Sims to spam wishes for pets like they did in TS2 Pets. None of the Lazlos have any of the new traits yet, so we’ll have to wait to see if traits trigger the wishes.</div>

Please welcome our Generation Four heir, Trust Lazlo. Trust rolled the Brave and Absent-Minded traits. Courage is already set to be the Firefighter Super Hero, so I’m not sure what Trust will aspire to. Perhaps, he will follow in his grandfather’s footsteps and join Law Enforcement. I still need someone to top the Secret Agent branch.</div>

The next night, the Lazlos celebrated more birthdays with the triplets aging up to young adult. As the eldest, Summer went first.</div>
<div align="center">

<div align="center">
She rolled the Savvy Sculptor trait, so I gave her an artsy look. I am thrilled when Sims roll traits that match their destiny. Ok, I know what you are thinking. <i>How can the triplets be aging up to young adult when Grace is still a teenager?</i> The truth is Grace has already aged up to young adult. I just didn’t include her age up in the last Russell post. I was thinking the triplets had one more full week left as teenagers, so I held Grace’s age-up back for the next Russell post. Do not worry. There has not been a rift in the time stream! </div>
<div align="center">
Anyway, to recap, Summer’s traits are: Easily Impressed, Grumpy, Eccentric, Green Thumb, and Savvy Sculptor. Her lifetime wish is to be a Renaissance Sim, so she will be maxing the sculpting, inventing, and handiness skills. She will be moving in with the family of her boyfriend, Randell Albright. The punny names continue. If she marries Randell, her name will be Summer Albright.</div>

That’s better. I was bummed that his teen hairstyle wasn’t available for young adults. I loved that hair on him. River rolled Vegetarian, following in his father’s and grandfather’s footsteps. Too bad he’s not the heir, I could have made that a family trait. River’s traits are: Loner, Clumsy, Childish, Artistic, and Vegetarian. His lifetime wish is Master of the Arts. He has already mastered the painting skill and is about halfway through with the Guitar skill. He will be moving in with the family of his girlfriend, Lil’ Piddy.</div>

From this pic, you can also see that Alan Murphy was invited to the party as Harmony’s guest. The Lazlos are still rooting for Alan. Sorry, Mikel!</div>

<div align="center">
Finally, Leaf aged up. He rolled Great Kisser as his last trait. His full trait list is: Insane, Perceptive, Heavy Sleeper, Perfectionist, and Great Kisser. Um, yeah, he’s special. His lifetime wish is to become The Emperor of Evil. (Every family, even Justice’s, has to have a bad seed.) I gave him a look to match his aspiration. Also check out his arms. He’s been working out, getting strong to knock his minions’ heads together. He’ll be moving in with the family of his girlfriend, Jessica Irvine.</div>

Fortune has re-mastered the Logic skill by learning all of the potions from the chemistry set. Now, I said when a Sim maxes a career, masters a skill, and reaches their lifetime wish, I would let them run on Free Will. I’ll give Fortune free will most of the time, but I need him to stock up on Young Again and Imaginary Friend potions. I may even have him make a ghost potion so we can get a ghost baby in the family.</div>

Fortune had a couple of Imaginary Friend potions in his inventory, so he invited Faith over. Here’s Simmer fail, number two: I didn’t put all of my custom content back in after the <i>Pets </i>install. Fortune seems to be saying, “I thought your last hairstyle was much more flattering.” </div>

Simmer Fail Three: Fortune’s and Faith’s relationship had dropped to acquaintance, so Faith wouldn’t accept a gift from Fortune. I used Master Controller to make them best friends so that she would take the gift. What? Don’t judge me. I’m not playing for points anymore. [Edited 12/30/2011: Well, not for legacy points anyway.] This is strictly for fun.</div>
<div align="center">
I really do want to work harder at maintaining the family relationships. I’m instituting Sunday night as family night. Each Lazlo household will invite as many Lazlos over for dinner as possible. Sunday night family night is actually something my family would often do. We would gather at my grandparents’ house. It was quite a bustling place back then because I had about fifteen first cousins (I have twenty-three now).</div>

Summer’s boyfriend aged up to young adult. Maybe there will be a marriage soon. We’ll have to see. With the spares, I am waiting for them to roll the wish to get engaged before I let them get engaged. So, we may see some Lazlos stay single for life.</div>

Simmer Fail Four: I completely forgot that Leeann had an opportunity. Give me a break, we were dealing with a newborn. </div>

And on the subject of newborns, Trust celebrated his toddler birthday. You need to prepare yourself for the onslaught of cuteness. Remember, both his father and mother were cute toddlers. I’m going to take a page from <a href="http://sullivansims.blogspot.com/">Carla</a> and show his parents' toddler pictures.</div>

Hello, and welcome back to <a href="http://thelazlolegacy.blogspot.com/">the Lazlo Legacy</a>. This week, we’re visiting Chance’s lot. Last time we visited, Nichol finally defeated Chance at sparring, and Serendipity aged up to child.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo3/89e82323c280_13D08/Screenshot_thumb1.jpg"><img alt="Screenshot_thumb[1]" border="0" height="364" src="http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm161/belladuke97/Lazlo3/89e82323c280_13D08/Screenshot_thumb1_thumb.jpg" style="background-image: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; display: inline; margin: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" title="Screenshot_thumb[1]" width="644" /></a>On Monday, Serendipity invited over a friend after school. If you recall, Chance and Nichol ran into a Story Progression-generated townie at the Chinese Garden <strike>who looked liked he had Justice as a genetic parent</strike>. That townie’s name is Omari Dunham, and this is his son, Jeff. Yeah, that’s right, <i>Jeff Dunham</i>.</div>

I also thought she looked cute in her tutu. She only made it to Level 1 of Ballet. In Generation 4, I’ll put more effort in the after school activities. I didn’t realize the kids could wins trophies and stuff.</div>

All of my kids are failing. I think it is because I have the households on stasis so they don’t gain any school performance. I thought stasis would freeze them at their current grade-level, but that does not appear to be the case. I could tweak the Story Progression options and allow the kids to gain school performance while keeping everything else frozen. I just have to click on each child and teen Sim and set “Allow Career” to true. I’ll experiment with that next round.</div>

She rolled the Unflirty trait to go with Athletic, Artistic, and Easily Impressed. She also rolled the lifetime wish of being a Distinguished Director. Perhaps, she will get to direct her cousin Grace in a movie.</div>

Nichol also aged up to mature adult and immediately entered a mid-life crisis. What is with you Lazlo women wanting to cheat on or divorce your men? Only my Heartbreaker and Gold Digger will be allowed to terminate their marriages early. The rest of you are stuck together for life.</div>

Hello, and welcome back to <a href="http://thelazlolegacy.blogspot.com/">the Lazlo Legacy</a>. I know it has been a while since I posted, but Pets was recently released, and new expansion packs always make me lonely for my Lazlos. Twallan, awesome modder god that he is, has already updated his Story Progression Mod for Pets. I opened up the Lazlo save and played it without any problems. This update and the next one were actually played before Pets came out, so we won’t see any of the new features. Anyway, let’s get on with it…</div>

And while we’re on the subject of Lifetime Wishes, Charity rolled the lifetime wish to become a Chess Legend. She’s going to need a lot of logic, so we invested in a chemistry set.</div>

It’s not all work. Charity and TheSituation also enjoy playing pretend. These two are really joined at the hip. I had planned for Charity to marry TheSituation. Unfortunately, he has gone missing from the neighborhood. I thought Imaginary Friends were part of the household, so when I put the Russell household on Stasis using Twallan’s Story Progression Mod, I thought that would freeze the Imaginary Friends too. I later learned that Imaginary Friends are actually part of the Service Population, so they were continuing to age while I was playing other households. TheSituation grew up to young adulthood while Charity was still a child. I can only presume that he got “cleaned” up by the Story Progression Mod.</div>

Ah, and here she is, post-makeover. Her traits are Loves the Outdoors, Easily Impressed. Neat, and Schmoozer. I don’t know. Hope doesn’t strike me as a Schmoozer. She has not chosen a lifetime wish yet.</div>

So, I gave him a trim. He rolled the Lifetime Wish of Living in the Lap of Luxury. I’ll probably have him ascend the Business Career and buy up some of the rabbit holes in Harmony.</div>

The reason is two-fold. First, my mom has been in and out of the hospital for the last month. She’s now on a feeding tube and oxygen, but it is hard to determine her prognosis. Some days, I’m very hopeful, but other days I feel all hope is gone. It’s been an emotional roller coaster.</p> <p>The other reason for the lack of updates is that I’m just not into The Sims right now. I haven’t played my saves in over a month. I didn’t install Town Life Stuff until Friday even though I got it the day it came out. Maybe I’m burned out because I played it heavily July 4th weekend. </p> <p>I also need to concentrate on other areas of my life. I want to organize my house and I also need to improve my own health. Frankly, I need to be putting more hours into EA Sports Active than The Sims.</p> <p>What does this mean for my blogs? For the near future, it means updates are going to be sporadic. I may focus on my <a href="http://megamaxissims.blogspot.com">Mega Maxis</a> blog since I only play each family a day at a time, so I can play in short sessions.</p> <p>I really hate that I’m not able to maintain a regular schedule. I know as reader it is very frustrating. But I also don’t want to “phone it in,” so I hope you can understand. Thank you for continued support!.</p> snarkysimshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14836312060754709863noreply@blogger.com8tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2193252208386288128.post-21364116581209135122011-07-09T10:09:00.000-04:002011-12-30T12:33:15.777-05:00The Lazlo Legacy—Harmony 3.1<div align="center">
I admit that when it comes to playing the Sims, I can be a control freak regarding Sim marriages and babies. My favorite part of the game is seeing how the genetics play out through the generations, so I am always eager to see the nooboos. Take Guardian and Leeann for example. I picked her out when she was only a toddler and stalked the poor girl until she married Guardian. I’ve already picked out mates for Harmony, Grace, Summer, River, Leaf, Charity, Hope, and Serendipity (don’t worry Honor, Love, and Courage, I’ll find someone for you too). I’m too impatient to let the game play itself out and see who a Sim’s wishes and circumstances lead to as a mate. </div>
<div align="center">
This week was a brutal reminder that the best laid plans often go awry. If last week was an up close and personal experience with the Punishment System, this week was even more so with the Romantic Reputation System. Unfortunately, my Simmies weren’t the only ones who got their hearts broken. </div>

I want to see Harmony get married, too, Fortune. And I want an extra slot in the house for Guardian and Leeann’s baby, so Harmony is moving out.</div>

Nectar and pizza? Is that all there is to a Bachelor party? Where are the party dancers? It then dawned on me that I hadn’t planned an actual Bachelor party. In the party planning screen, I selected <i>Destination </i>party. That explains why teenagers were available on the invite list. I would have expected them to be greyed out. Doh! I have to do this all over again.</div>

<div align="center">
So the next night, I plan an actual Bachelor Party at the Dog River Bar and Hotel. This is another lot that comes with Harmony. I know I’ve definitely picked Bachelor party this time because teens are greyed out in the invitation menu, and the only attire choice is “Dress to Impress.”</div>

<div align="center">
I had to consult Alan’s scrapbook. Notice he now has the “Cheater” reputation. He also has seven active romances. I’ve done some <a href="http://www.modthesims.info/showpost.php?p=3558185&postcount=70">research</a> and found out that EAxis has borked the Romantic Reputation system. Having more than one <i>romantic interest</i> at a time is considered cheating. Excuse me, EA? Sims have no commitments to Romantic Interests. That’s why there is a Go Steady option. Alan obtained all of these Romantic Interests through Twallan’s Story Progression. Every few minutes or so, the mod randomly pairs up two Sims. It’s not completely random. I do believe Twallan factors in traits and zodiac signs to determine compatibility, but the point is the same. Alan did not seek out these relationships on his own free will. The mod “pushed” him into those relationships. </div>
<div align="center">
I’m not even upset that the mod created these relationships. I am upset at EA’s implementation of jealousy. Calling up or inviting a Romantic Interest over isn’t always a booty call. How else is he supposed to use the “Let’s Just be Friends” interaction? (Sidebar: If breaking up with a Romantic Interest is called “Let’s Just be Friends,” I wish they had called breaking up with a steady, “It’s Not You, it’s Me”). Anyway, it should only be considered cheating if he performs a Romantic Interaction with someone other than his partner. And someone who doesn’t have a committed partner should be able to perform romantic interactions with whomever he or she pleases. *Sigh* Ok, rant over.</div>
<div align="center">
I’m afraid this is going to be a problem for my other Lazlos as well. Two of Alan’s romantic interests are River’s girlfriend, Lil’ Piddy and Leaf’s girlfriend, Jessica Irvine. And <i>both of them</i> have romantic interest with Grace’s boyfriend, Sean Bumgarner, and Summer’s boyfriend, Randell Albright. What a mess! The only one who managed to stay out of this love decagon is Hope’s boyfriend, Barry Chesterman, because Hope nabbed him as soon as he aged up. (No, you haven’t missed anything, I’ve played ahead.) It’s too late for Alan and Harmony, but for Lil’/River, Jessica/Leaf, Randell/Summer and Sean/Grace, I’m going to clear out all of their other Romantic Interests with Master Controller. I’m also putting their households on Stasis so that they don’t develop new romantic interests when I’m not looking. </div>
<div align="center">
I digress. Poor Alan is going to have to work to get back into Harmony’s good graces. He’s also going to save up Lifetime Happiness Points for the Clean Slate reward.</div>

Poor guy. I really feel for him. He didn’t do anything wrong. He’s just a victim of random dice rolls. (I know I could also fix their relationship with Master Controller, but I’m intrigued by the challenge of Alan having to woo Harmony back. It should make for an interesting story line.)</div>

I can’t even try to mend things from Harmony’s end. The game won’t let me perform any romantic interactions because “Harmony is too upset to be romantic with Alan.” Though I am frustrated that I can’t mend the situation, I do admire the realism.</div>

Colin’s daughter Alice from his first marriage (to Alan’s mom) also shows up. To clarify, Alan has four siblings. Gary, Alice, and Alan are all the products of Colin’s marriage to a woman named Jennifer. Jennifer has since remarried a man named Justin Ervin and produced a son named Adam. And you have already met Colin and Bree’s daughter, Lorelei. To keep Alan’s siblings in sync, I turn aging off on their lots when I’m not playing his. </div>

By the time this week ended, Jennifer had divorced Justin. I assume it is because of the Romantic Reputation system. Sims that don’t marry their first romantic interest are doomed.</div>

When Harmony got off work that night, this message popped up. An action to Break Up with Alan was also added to her queue. I could not cancel the action no matter how hard I tried. I read up on this and when a Sim accuses another of cheating, they get the Betrayed moodlet. The Sim being accused has to raise his relationship with the accuser by a certain percentage before this moodlet times out. If the accused fails to do so in the allotted time, the accuser automatically ends the relationship. </div>
<div align="center">
I was panicking at this point. I didn’t want Alan and Harmony to break up, I wanted them to get married! Luckily, the Science Lab is on the other side of town from where the Murphys live, so by the time Harmony found Alan, the action had dropped off her queue. Thinking I had a dodged a bullet, I promised myself that I would keep them together as long as she didn’t roll a wish to break up. I really hoped I could repair the damage.</div>

It broke my heart, but I let her do it. I tell you, I was bummed after that. So bummed, I had to turn the game off for a while. I had really gotten attached to Alan’s extended family. I was looking forward to seeing how they turned out.</div>

Congratulations, Mr. and Mrs. Colin Murphy! I would have never thought my first <i>Generations</i>-style wedding party would not involve a Lazlo, but I’m glad <i>someone</i> got a happy ending this week. Colin and Bree deserved it. They endeared themselves to me. As much as I like them, I’m not spinning them off into their own blog. They will stay around as long as Alan is a contender for Harmony’s heart. And speaking of contenders… </div>

Welcome to your new home, Mikel! So, Harmony, who will it be? I’m still rooting for Alan because he has distinctive genetics and I like his family. Mikel has the same face that you see on half the townies. However, I promise not to push her in either direction. We will let her wishes dictate who she ends up with. Up next, it’s back to Faith’s house. Stay tuned!</div>
