Yes, it’s everyone’s favorite bachelor, Christopher Steel. Zoey got his attention with a funny joke about the abominable snowman. Chris is like, “Teehee, what’s snow?”
They kept chatting about food (Chris is a Natural Cook) and other fascinating topics while all the citizenry of Sunset Valley tried to run them over.
“Excuse me, pardon me, comin’ through…”
Zoey may be a nerd, but she’s not the shy loner type — she’s Ambitious. So I figured she might as well go for the gusto. She flirted with Christopher and tried a pick-up line…about space? Oh, Zoey. How do you work “Saturn” into a pick-up line, anyway? I guess she told him his eyes were like…rings of dust particles? I don’t know, but he seemed to like it.
He didn’t like her attempt to kiss him, though. I know the clock is ticking, Zoey, but slow down! (OK, I made her do it. She would have rather been playing chess, I’m sure.)
Well, once he rebuffed her, I was done. I had Zoey go about her business. I’d like to think Christopher was bit regretful, but…
…he was just itching to change into his tux and go to the bistro! Christopher, you crazy gourmand.
Also, nice wig.
Zoey drowned her sorrows by taking a nice, long bubble bath with her rubber ducky. Yeah, I splurged on bubble bath and the duck so she could get into a better mood. She needed that promotion at work!
It looks like she’s stomping bugs here, but it’s actually her “yay, I got a promotion!” dance. Day 2, and she’s a Desk Jockey! Which is when I realize that even if she gets a promotion every other day for the rest of her life…she probably won’t hit Dynamic DNA Profiler before she dies. Bummer, dude.

That was the best!!! Too funny! I like how she “collected” a man, ha ha! And all of your funny lines. Christopher Lloyd, ha ha ha ha! And the town trying to run them over, basically all of your witty captions! I think you’ve finally found the family you should be playing with! :-)
Zoey is so cute! She looks like she’s a lot of fun to play.
LOL I’m glad she kept the military man. he’s cute!
woot grats on the promotion but erm… no kiss? really? *pokes Christopher*
omg no! Christopher Lloyd?! *laughs hysterically*
welcome to the family Christopher! now go make pretty babies!
I can’t stop singing that song now, Jen! The Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy From Company B. Unfortunately for our neighbours, I’m a lousy singer. My ma used to have the Bette Midler record with that song on it when I was a little kid! Great update, though, it certainly made me laugh.
I am having a lot of fun with the game myself, though, a lot more fun than I ever head with the other two, strangely enough, and I’m not sure why yet ;)
Also, I’m more inclined to think Uncle Fester rather than Doc.
“Kaylynn thinks, “Wow, cleaning up after other people looks like fun! I think I’ll do it for the rest of my life!—
I laughed so much at that!
This was excellent and I’m contemplating trying that mod now. I haven’t patched yet, so I’d need to do that first. That’s the only thing holding me back!
HAHAHA, so good! I loved the Kaylynn caption, that cracked me up! TS3 looks like so much fun, I can’t wait to get it. Keep playing this family, it’s really good!!
Honestly, is that little black-and-white-dressed girl really Kaylynn??? Haha ;) – that was too great! And I also collected a man sometime and kept him for myself.
Jen, one of the funniest entries you’ve ever posted, really! Thumbs up!
*rolls on the floor laughing her a$$ off about the “Christopher Lloyd – “Run for it, Marty!” bit*
*cackles like a mad scientist*
*wipes away tears of mirth*
Good stuff, jenba! I’m glad you’re having fun with this “super fast” legacy of yours. I’m curious to see how you manage to keep the family going when adult to elder = 6 days. O__o It’s one thing if the heir is male … but women have a finite childbearing lifetime. :O))
*thumbs up*
Oh wow I’ve never tried the shortest lifespan but seems like her life is flying by at lightning speed! Haha, this entry was awesome, can’t wait to read the next one!
I’ll have to take a peek at this mod, see what it’s all about. Are you enjoying it more than AwesomeMod so far? But I can’t believe you’re doing this on the shortest life span possible! *faints*
She started with only 4 days as a YA? *boggles*
You’ve got Zoey throwing out perfectly good, uncooked hot dogs? *tsks* Neat freaks are fun though. *giggles* Poor Kaylynn, she’ll be the town maid for ever and a day now. *shakes her head* The young are so impressionable!
Glad working from the library counted as working from home. *grins* But goodness, she really is an overachiever!
Collecting is so neat! And woot! Now THAT is quite a collection find! Especially with those blue eyes. *fans herself* Ah, that’s why he looked so familiary! (I never saw him in a military uniform in my game.) Christopher is such a sweetie. *melts*
*tsks* They really should get out of the middle of the street. That’s too dangerous! Ooo, rejected kisses really hurt a blossoming relationship. :-(
I hope they earn work-status faster in the shorter life-spans than they do in the longer ones, but yeah, I’ll be shocked if she becomes a DNA profiler in her life. Especially since she’ll HAVE to take time off for maternity leave. (I tried making Shiarra Diobhell go to work after one of her babies was born, but no dice. I don’t like that you can’t choose who stays home, either.)
SIX DAYS until Elder, right after her birthday? YIKES! Okay, yeah, I am never ever EVER going to play on the shortest lifespan!
Hehe, congrats on your first kiss, Zoey! *cheers* Wow, and congrats on getting engaged so fast! Talk about a whirlwind romance. *grins* But congrats on getting a husband and working on making babies. ;-)
