---------------------------------------------------------------

As we begin both girls sit down and start skilling.  We redirected to better meet their wishes by having Patricia practice piano and Cleo go give financial counseling on the computer upstairs.

Then it was time for the welcome wagon to arrive.  Funny, I don't remember there being a welcome wagon that visited the Roth family.  Maybe they had already been played for a little time and I just forgot and didn't take pictures. This welcome wagon was great for both Patricia and Cleo as it gave them new people to meet.

Patricia headed off to work, which she holds in journalism, and that is her LTW.  Cleo, on the other hand, works in Music, which is not where her LTW lies.  We will have to see if Cleo decides to change careers as so time.  Mary Gavigan invites the house downtown. She brings her family and a few others.

Cleo really wants to dance with someone.  She also finds Mary's husband, Nathan very attractive.  They, however, are just friends but do take some time to dance together.  Cleo then goes home.

After work Patricia comes home and wants to each spaghetti.  So she cooks some up.  The remanents of the party 'lunch meat sandwiches' Cleo had made are still on the table.  The party is still in full swing in the other room.

Patrica meets Chester, I believe, and they hit it off.  Nothing romantic is happening, she is interested in Mr. O'Mackey, but she is a popularity sim, after all, so everyone can be a friend.

Cleo is a party queen, poor Patricia almost never gets a chance to throw one because Cleo always starts a party before she is home from work. Cleo really wanted to have a date with someone.  In the relationship panel, all 2-bolt guys she knows are married.  We don't really want Cleo to become THAT sim, so the highest level friendship of a non-married sim in John Mole.  A double check of his update shows he is not attached, even a little bit.  So she tries to ask him on a date.  It fails miserably, so she dances with Sanjay Ramaswami.  He is also 2-bolts but married, but dancing isn't an issue.

The failure to get a date with John Mole throws Cleo for a loop and she throws a wish I have never seen before.....or if I have I have never clocked it.  She wishes for a Love Potion 8.5.  So the gypsy is called and the potion is bought.  She doesn't drink it and doesn't wish for anything else to do with it, yet.

Patricia comes home from work and once again wants to eat spaghetti, so off she goes.  This time, though, she starts a fire.  Luckily they have a fire alarm and the fireman quickly get the burned dish put out.  She does still eat it and fulfills that wish.

Sadly, for Patricia, she has been meeting so many wishes for her knowledge side, her popularity side has taken a hit and her social is in the tank.  A social bunny shows up.  Luckily Patricia brought a friend home from work this day and so the social bunny isn't even needed.  She wanted to be friends with this girl, and thus it was.

Patricia then needed her wishes to be shaken up just a bit and we head to a community lot.  There she meets another very familiar sim to most simmers, Circe Beaker.

It was probably Patricia's wish, but I thought Cleo wanted the hot tub.  Either way, Patricia spends some more time with a new friend in the hot tub. She rarely, if ever, wishes for Gabe O'Mackey, so we will see what he wants when we get to his house.

Cleo wants to pillow fight with a sim all the time. She is getting a high enough relationship score with John Mole that he willing pillow fights almost anytime.

Cleo then throws a want I have been hoping for.  She wants to go on a date and flirt with a sim.  John Mole is called over, the only unmarried sim with a high enough relationship, or at least I hope so, to ask on a date.  She calls him up and he says yes.  During the date, Cleo wants to flirt with him, and this also succeeds.  They are now crushing on each other.

A look at both of their wish panels shows the desire to make out with each other.  They hadn't even kissed, so their first kiss is had.  Then they proceed with a make-out session.  I'm excited about this potential match.

The date ends "well" with some woohoo in Cleo's bed.  She then wants to meet new people again.  That popularity side coming out big time.  We see Goneril Capp walk by and Cleo runs out in her underwear to great here.  Apparently, Goneril wanted to meet someone else too, unless she wanted to see someone in their underwear. 

Patricia, I believe, wished for some more spaghetti, so she served some dinner. Goneril joins both ladies and they have a pleasant dinner to wrap up the spring season.

Summary:

Patricia Wan: A pretty easy sim to keep happy overall.  Her knowledge side had really kicked in and she skilled a lot.  She also wanted to make spaghetti all the time.  The funny thing was, to get a new promotion she needed a cooking skill.  She wished for creativity, mechanical, charisma, but no cooking.  She did finally get it from making spaghetti all the time. We will see what happens when we get to the O'Mackey house, maybe he'll want more time with Patricia.

Ending Wishes: Reach Cooking Level 4, Be Saved From Death, See a Ghost, Reach Creativity Level 7

Cleo Shikibu: A very easy sim to keep happy.  She had one difficult day towards the end of the round which kept her from getting 5 wishes, but every other day, the constant stream of parties and influencing sims caused her to get things easily.  She also got a really good  ($14000) bonus at work for a chance card which helped this family get out of near poverty quickly.

Ending Wishes: Be BFF with John (Mole), Be BFF with Mary (Gavigan), Meet Someone New, Have a Party
