OK, maybe it's not really alive... but it is approved. Woot! My next lot will be available for download tomorrow. And on my Dad's birthday too. Aaawww... He doesn't sim. LOL That would be quite a sight.

And good news for my vampire! I changed his name back to his original last night. Awesome! The option came back. I moved a new sim into this new lot of mine to get some shots for the upload and I took him out and about after getting my piccies. The name change option was available for him at City Hall so just out of curiosity I decided to load up my vamp family and see if their's was fixed. Yep. Yeehaw! I dunno what caused that to glitch but making a new sim and starting a new game fixed it. Uh... whatever. I'm so happy! I changed the last name of all the kids but left his wife's alone. She can keep her silly EA name. It's a celeb thing to do. It's her punishment for messing up my game in the first place. Bad EA sim, bad. I'm just glad my vamp can stop stalking City Hall now. I swear I camped him out there for a week. I know you're in there! I want my real name back! Get me the papers!

I still have the puking problem too. My sims never do it though except that one odd time at a party, the wife did it, but never again. Whatever is causing it isn't phasing my sims at all. Thank you very much. It's disgusting so if my sims were doing it I'd be looking for a fix. Maybe it's one of those useless traits I never use because I don't want my sims to be vacuous idiots. 'Tis still a mystery.

I have to say that vampire children have a horrendously unfair advantage for skill building and for just about anything really. They max a skill just sitting there for 5 minutes. Even watching the cooking channel it goes way faster. They'll all be maxed in everything before they're young adults at this rate. And that's just me casually skill building when I think of it or they want to learn something. I don't really like my plain jane sims now. They're like... learning disabled. Why are you so slow and stupid?! Aren't you done with level 1 yet?! My regular sim turned vampire is slightly faster than a normal sim, but his kids are insane. It's actually a lot of fun but still, way unfair.

My vampire and his wife are getting wants to travel now so they might take some interesting trips soon. She's also incredibly horny all the time now so another batch of kids might be in order. Honestly. She has at least 2 woohoo wishes at one time, all the time. She can't get enough. Must be that biological clock ticking. She's in her adult phase now but my vampire is still a young adult. Now he's technically married to an older woman even though they started the same age. Ah well. She's never had the desire to be turned so I let her be. Still had 3 vamp kids out of the 50/50 mix. He's 3 for 3 so far.

OK, so sim life ain't so amazing right now but I thought I'd prattle on about it anyway. Enjoy the new lot and I better get started on the next one.
