But first...what is going on here????? **SLAP SLAP SLAP** It looks like Jet and Marcia Breunig are having a confrontation! Let's roll back a few seconds and see what let up to this!
Jet: "Meredith...you are absolutely lovely....I could live in the park forever with you." Plantsims!!!
Meredith: "Jet I love you so much..."
Marcia: "Jet I thought you loved me!"
Jet: "Uhhhh I never said so....."
Marcia: "Don't you EVER call me again Jet Spartan!" **slap slap**
Jet: "I have never called you Marcia. You always call me. Hey. How about this."
Jet: "I will pay you to go away. Here's 50 simoleons. Feel better?"
Marcia: "Thanks for the cash. But I can't guarantee anything."

Knocking out three birthdays with one party here....
Vince: "Oh mah dahlin'....you are so sexy schmexy while you are holding our daughter...."
Arlan and Gomez wait patiently for Vince to shut up....then it was cake time!
The first to pop up was Evonne! Oh my she is beautiful. So nice to have a red head in the family. wait, what? Red head? How did that happen.....both parents have to carry the gene....oohhhooo...well before we get to that:
Next was Arlan's girls...Ophelia on the left, then Orchid on the right. Now these girls have exactly opposite personalities. Ophelia is completely nice, and Orchid is completely mean. Oh my.
Now...red hair. How did Evonne get that? Enter: simDNA cheat.
Mitzi's dad...Count Vlad is a redhead, so it is no surprise to see Mitzi carries the recessive. However, looky at that. Headmaster Vince Walter is a redhead and happens to die his hair black! So there you go. They mystery is solved.
Vince: "Mitzi, I find you irresistable! Come here!" hahaha!
Looks like Marcia didn't keep any promises about leaving Jet alone, she became an official newspaper stealer. She managed to get two or three papers, and got the trash knocked over a few times before ASimWen remembered Arlan had a Sentry Bot in his backpack given to him by his dad.
*****
The girls head out to the school bus. Oh no. You are getting new clothes. Arlan was always available for his girls after school to cheer them up and help them with homework.
Alright...Jet and Arlan have a love/hate relationship. One minute they are rolling around in the dust fists flying, and the next minute they are discussing books and films. smh OOOhhh what is that? Mitzi is expecting again. This happened the evening of Evonne's birthday party.
Girls! Those outfits are more like it. I see you are having to step over books left on the sidewalk by Sim Delivery. The Starving Artist family is making ridiculous amounts of money writing books. That is really the way to go. And while her cousins are at school, Evonne decides to try her hand at catching butterflies.
*****
Memberships and Plaques
The twins received memberships to My Muse....
Annnnd Arlan received the hobby plaque in Film and Lit, and Evonne got into My Muse.
None of this is a surprise. haha
Another birthday...Evonne's up to child. You can see her dad there on the right rooting her on. Oh my...Evonne is so pretty. Maybe it seems so because this family has had nothing but Sims born with black hair or brown hair! No blondes or redheads!
Mitzi: "Arlan! Gomez! It is time!!!"
Gomez: "Um I am in the middle of a fight scene.....just a sec.."
Arlan: whispering to self.... "And then, before Jack knew it, the giant mounted the beanstalk and quickly climbed down, chasing him...."
A son named Frank. Hiya, Frank! Got your daddy's beautiful grey eyes and your momma's black hair!
Jet: "WhooHoo! It is about time we get a boy! Had a streak of girls!"
In the meanwhile the girls roll out of bed. Friendly Ophelia is all about making friends with her cousin Evonne while not so friendly Orchid is bouncing on the bed. Which is a big no-no in ASimWen's Sim houses.
She was made to get off the bed and talk to her cousin. Ophelia laughed at Orchid's jokes.
Ah. Evonne has maxed out creativity. If these kids didn't cake up early, they would get it maxed whilst toddlers.
Mitzi's friend Waylon was called to come and do repairs...(even though Jet is completely maxed out on skills). Waylon is shooting blanks. He has been with Mitzi four times now, and nothing. The minute Mitzi hops into bed with Vince, there are chimes hahaha! This generation has been partaking in "risky woohoo" no clicking on "try for baby".
Ophelia: "Pow pow pow! Got you, you rogue!"
Evonne: "OOhh you got me!. Hey mom..how about some cereal???"
Evonne: "I am going to wear makeup when I grow up."
Mitzi: "Of course you are my darling. Maybe we can go shopping together. Take you to see Rodolfo! He is the best."
*****
Who's birthday is it now?? Oh it is Frank's! Of course, Vince was there to see his boy age up.
What a cutie patootie! Think he is gonna have his dad's nose though! Oh well...he isn't going to be the heir, and ASimWen doesn't care about Sim appearance anyway!
What did I tell you. Chimes. They have chemistry, all right!
And that ends this birthday laden chapter for the Spartans...aka The Starving Artists!
Ghostly Encounters
Granny Frannie scaring...but not sure who??? She is looking at Arlan drinking Eggplant juice, but Evonne is the one freaking out.
Sage always cheers the toilet....that will never be remodeled out of the house! Dear dear Remmie. When he haunts it is all about cleaning. Will load the dishwasher...empty the potty chairs...rarely scares anyone.
LOGAN..............LOGAN
And Logan. The guy never lets up. And there is Faith looking on. Poor Jet was just trying to get some gardening done, and the sprinklers repaired. Never again will ASimWen delete any beds. They will go into the mausoleum.
What is going on at the (not) Trailer Park? (Spartan Satellite House)
Cousin Cujo and his fiance Sophie Miguel return home from Uni only to see the resident Servo Eamon recharging out on the curb.
Make over for Sophie. She hated it. I should have listened to her...turned out the jewelry didn't work...kept flashing blue every time she changed clothes. Had to remove.
Love this house because ASimWen gets to do everything here she can't do in the Starving Artist house. Weddings...working Sims up in their career... Love this because the house has a huge driveway big enough to set up everything needed for a wedding.
The adults from the Starving Artist house who knew Cousin Cujo were invited.
Awwww love this picture. This was the wedding 'redo'. The game crashed three sim days into play..and had to start over Monday morning at 7 am. I nearly considered not replaying everything and just using pictures from the first time around, but NAAAH! Love to Sim!
Mr and Mrs Cujo Spartan. I felt like this couple was a little non conformist. No tux or big wedding gown for Cujo and Sophie!
Woah....Cousin Cujo is giving Arlan something. What could it be???? Double check prior entry for a hint. Oh look. A couple of ladies from Uni party crashed.
Now to the more mundane. Risky woohoo only....Sophie got pregnant a couple of days after the wedding, and Cujo received his hobby plaque in Film and Lit. He still throws constant wishes to write novels. As soon as his LTW wish comes up...he will take that job.
And Cousin Darrel reached TOC in Education. Last chapter he was working in Paranormal. Having accomplished what he needed there, he began pursuing his LTW. No matter what job Darrel is working in, he brings home this guy as the co worker. It is the landlord from the family's days of living in the trailer park. I guess he is the only person Darrel knows!
Now then...I don't have a bunch of pictures that I took. Big mystery, don't know what happened. Cujo and Sophie had a beautiful little girl named Maeve. She will grow up first thing next chapter.
Another big mystery about this house. When Cujo and Sophie landed I noticed the house had 550K in funds. ???? I don't know how much they had at the end of last round but I knew THAT wasn't right. Then decided it didn't matter because this house wasn't included in the challenge scoring.
And that is it! Thanks for stopping by! See you next chapter!
