 Ashley Pitts (see PV 10/30/20) worked and then had a great outing with friend, during which he added another notch to his bedpost with townie Kitty Fuchs.  He also met a couple other women during the outing that he can keep in mind for future conquests.  A couple more promotions and he might even get out of this crappy apartment.

Jared Starchild (see PV 10/30/20) had the day off, so he spent some time skilling and then threw a party.  A good time was had by all.

The Phoenixes (see PV 10/30/20) threw a party this round to celebrate both the twins' birthday and Allegra's promotion.  Things are even more cramped in their tiny trailer now with all the toddler toys and such, but they need to save all the money they can to pay Allegra's eventual legal fees, so moving to a bigger place is out of the question.

Happy Simming!

 Kevin Beare (see PV 10/29/20) got promoted this round and hung out with Castor Nova for a while.  He had enough money to buy a little more furniture for his apartment, including a tv, so life is looking up for him.

Caryl Grundstrom (see PV 10/29/20) once again did not get promoted and once again did not find a job in Business.  She did have a nice outing with friends and family though, so it wasn't a total loss.

Morgan Alpha (see PV 10/30/20) had a dream date with Shawn Wong.  I guess she wanted to take advantage of the fact that she can't get any more pregnant than she already is.  The rest of her time was spent sleeping and dealing with the effects of the mysterious disease.  She still hasn't found the job she wants either.  Next round the baby will be born.

Martin Dreamer's (see PV 10/30/20) business was closed this round, so he didn't have much to do.  He went out with a couple of friends, but didn't meet anyone interesting.  Greg had to work, but got invited on an outing later by a friend of a friend.  The outing was underwhelming, but at least he finally found a job in Entertainment after midnight.

Happy Simming!

 Jasper Roseland graduated last round and moved to Bella Park.  He spent this round settling into his new place, meeting the neighbors, and trying to find a job in Music (to no avail).  Since he's okay financially, I'll give him a day or two to find the job he wants before making him take what's available.

Gunnar Roque and Jasmine Rai (see PV 10/29/20) both got promoted at their jobs.  Jasmine turned in early, but Gunnar partied with his friends all night.  Their finances are looking pretty good.  They might just be able to pay off their student loans in a few days, which would be a huge load off.

Since we last caught up with Calvin Latte (see PV 10/29/20), his younger brother Noah has moved in with him.  Luckily Noah was able to find a job as an Athlete right away, though he won't start work until next round.  He invited over some friends, most of whom are still teens, and then did some skilling while Calvin was at work.

Happy Simming!

Pleasantview 12/28/20

 Roxie Sharpe moved in with Phineaus Furley (see PV 10/28/20) since last round.  She brought in enough money to buy a couch and a bookcase, with a little to spare.  She also worked this round and brought in a little more cash.  Phineaus had the day off and spent it with friends at the park.  At home he did manage to acquire the cleaning point needed for his promotion.  After midnight, Roxie was delighted to find job in Culinary she's been looking for.  She's starting out as Executive Chef!  That's got to be a lot better than working construction.  She'll need A LOT of skill points to advance, but she's making twice what Phineaus is, so it's not like she needs an immediate promotion.

Will Bruty and Quinn Leong (see PV 10/28/20) had a good round.  They both got promotions, Will had an outing with friends, and Quinn went out to his hobby lot to score a logic point.  Next round the twins will grow up, so that'll be exciting.

Emily Lee (see PV 10/28/20) had a tame round.  She worked, then threw a party.  I made her invite both her boyfriends in an effort to make her choose between them.  She thwarted my plans though by refusing to do anything romantic with either of them and then taking herself off to bed while everyone else enjoyed the hot tubs.  Sims!

Happy Simming!

Pleasantview 12/27/20

 Guy Wrightley (see PV 10/27/20) had a busy day.  He worked his new job in the morning, earning a promotion on his first day, then he had a quick date with Jasmine Rai, ran his business, then was immediately invited on an outing.  I had him go because I was hoping he'd meet someone besides Jasmine, who is in a relationship with Gunnar Roque, but he wasn't overly impressed with any of the women he met.  Upon returning home, he was exhausted and went straight to bed.  Financially, he did okay; between his job earnings and his business earnings he was able to make a normal payment on his student loan (which is nearly paid off) and a reduced payment on his business loan, as well as pay the regular bills.  So, not too bad.  In other news, while he was at his business, Count Nery came by and turned a couple of sims (Liam Bruty and Mark Grundstrom) which I was definitely not happy about.

Ben Tellerman (see PV 10/28/20) had a date with Cara Broke, which went very well indeed.  They did not decide to move in together just yet, as their relationship is still very new, but I foresee that happening in the near future.  Afterwards, Ben went to work and earned a promotion easily with his platinum mood.  He was so wired, he didn't even sleep, choosing instead to practice the bass throughout the night.

Happy Simming!

Pleasantview 12/26/20

 Delilah Custer (see PV 10/26/20) got hit with a bad chance card that resulted in her being fired.  She was not able to find her job again, so for now she's unemployed.  Mark was luckier; he got promoted.  Dwayne and Lexie both had the day off and worked on skilling.  In the evening they threw a building party, but it wasn't very successful because Delilah set the grill on fire while cooking burgers.

Joel Hanby (see PV 10/26/20 & 10/27/20) was the only member of his household to get promoted this round.  Chaz and Tom were both starting in their new jobs and didn't have time to skill beforehand.  Upon returning home, everyone worked on skilling, but no one actually achieved all the skills they need yet.

Arianna Bruty (see PV 10/27/20) had another day off, which she spent skilling and hanging out with friends.  She still doesn't have all the skills she needs, but she made some good progress.  Zoe spent most of her time caring for Jeannie, but did squeeze in some stargazing in the evening.

Happy Simming!

Pleasantview 12/25/20

 You may recall that Jessie Carr moved in with Meredith Landgraab (see PV 10/26/20) earlier this round.  While this is financially a great move for them both, it's a powder keg waiting to explode as well.  You see, unbeknownst to Meredith, Jessie is also seeing her daughter Naomi.  He is, in fact, the father of the two children Naomi gave up to the orphanage.  I daresay it's only a matter of time before the whole thing blows up in their faces.  For this round, however, Jessie got settled in, got promoted to the top of the Slacker career, and finished his GED.  He'll start working on his degree next round.  Meredith was supposed to take vacation, but I accidentally let her go to work.  Oh well.  She'll be retiring soon.

Happy Simming!
