I fail at life.

Yes. It’s true.

I was forced to uninstall my Sims games from the computer I usually use. (Long, horrid story) but BASICALLY I got to reinstall everything. Now, I was smart enough to copy over my files, but the Manchester family already lagged tooo much and I didn’t copy the Brandt family, so SCREW THEM.

But that’s alright, because I’ve got something FRESH AND NEW.

The Henderson family.

And an awkward mini-series I shall call “Hangin’ with the Hendersons” (lolwut).

Stay tuned!

Angeles and Lynette go to China

Since Angeles aged up wearing traditional Chinese garb, I decided to take some initiative and grant his unspoken wish by treating him to an all-expense paid vacation to China!

And by all-expense paid I do mean that the family had to pay for all the expenses.

Angeles: Hello, I would like to order two large pumpkins…and two plane tickets to China. When would I like to leave? Why, within the next ten minutes, of course!

I worry about elderly Sims traveling abroad.

Lynette (almost typed Lucy) gets to ride in a limo through the forests of China, though, because she’s a BAMF. Although I’d imagine that her huge, clunker of an American limo would probably pollute the delicate Chinese town horribly….

Ah, well…

Angeles: Oh, hey, a hot explorer. Hey, babe. Got any…tombs to explore? *wink*

Random Explorer Chick: Um. Shouldn’t you be…in a hospice or something?

Angeles: Hospice? Oh goodness no, my dearie. You see, I’m only seventy something years old! I won’t be dying any time soon.

Random Explorer Chick: Damn.

Paparazzo: *gasp* It’s Angeles Manchester talking to a woman that most certainly is not his wife! I need to get a shot of this!

I hate paparazzi. Every where you go…Everywhere. They follow you. Maybe with the Pets expansion there’ll be man-eating unicorns that you can use to guard your celebrity Sims….

Hmmm…Maybe I’ll suggest that to EA.

So in order to actually have a decent conversation with this girl (she’s French, I believe), Angeles had to invite her out to some old castle tower thing in the middle of the night to have a deep discussion about art.

Random French Explorer Chick: Sometimes I’m so poor, I sleep and eat off the same art canvas! Ahhahaha

Angeles: Mm…yeah…We used to be that poor…But then we weren’t…

Angeles and Lynette are sleeping peacefully in their hotel room bed.

When suddenly…

Paparazzi Perverts: Hehehe Two elder sims sleeping in the same bed. Dude, we totally have to catch this on film.

Damn. Paparazzi.

Angeles: C’mon, babe. Let’s put on a show for the cameras!

Lynette: Ugh, god, Angeles don’t be a creep…Besides, I didn’t bring my good undergarments.

Random Explorer Guy (also French): So. I saw those pictures they took of you last night, Lynette. *suggestive wink*

Lynette: *chokes* OMG WTF?!

Angeles: SPRING BREAAAAK! WOOOOOOO!!!!

Random Explorer: Oh that’s right…Now I’ll sell these photos to those creepy photographers so I’ll have enough cash to get out of this country before the cops get to that temple…

*insert Eye of the Tiger here*

ELDER MARTIAL ARTS SPAM! I totally trust Lynette more than Angeles…

With her newfound skill, Lynette goes to explore a strange dragon cave. Why anyone would want to enter the mouth of a dragon which probably has not visited the dentist in thousands of years is beyond me….

But first, she must open the rock door.

LOLNO.

Lynette: Angeles, we’re getting the hell out of here. This place is just one embarrassment after another…

…And thus ends their trip.

Hope you liked the re-introduction to the family! More to come!

Just kidding, the Manchesters will live on!

I said earlier that I was stopping the Manchester Legacy. Well, I won’t. Instead, I’ll update randomly while paying more attention to the new Brandt Legacy (which will be equally funny!).
The Brandt Legacy should be finished sometime this weekend, if not tonight (after work)…
Hope you enjoy!

Say Goodbye to the Manchesters!

That’s right, guys. I’m done with that family!

I’m sorry that it took so long to update, but I have a great new founder for a NEW legacy in Twinbrook, because this legacy…erm. It went dry.

However, I WILL be linking you to the Exchange to download the family to continue the legacy yourselves!

And maybe one day I’ll start it again…

Nah, I probably won’t.

Anyway, stay tuned for my new legacy:

The Brandt Story

My Long Absence

Alright, so despite my promise to update over break I haven’t. Mostly because:
A) I was doing stuff
B) I got hooked on Tumblr
C) I made a new Sim named Rusell in Bridgeport and…yeah.
RUSSELL MADE ME (not) DO IT!
Anyway, the legacy is getting kinda dry, which is sad because it’s only Gen 3. Either way, I will try my best to update this Saturday. With the legacy and MAYBE a special surprise.
DUN DUN DUN.

3.3 When Thunder Roars, Go Indoors

Please ignore the title. I only made it that because there’s a storm outside right now and I’m hoping the power doesn’t shut off, because I’m on the desktop computer like a moron, instead of the laptop…

So I know I haven’t updated in a long time, lacrosse combined with the stress of school= no sleep for me! Luckily, I’m on break now, SOOO I’ll be updating!

I’d like to start off with an old picture that I found today while going through my screenshots:

I have no idea WHEN this happened (obviously it was when Lucy was still ALIVE), but apparently biting people is RUDE these days. I had no idea…

Chuck: HELLO BOYS AND GIRLS! AND WELCOME TO MAGICAL AEROBICS!

Hehehe I love my gnome:)

Anyway, Finn aged up pretty soon, and the family threw a modest birthday party for him. Yes, there is a fire woman there. No, I don’t remember WHY she showed up.

Celia probably tried to blow something up again. >.>

Celia: But it’s FUUU-UUUN!

Oh I’m sure it is, Celia. After all, F is for Fire that BURNS DOWN the whole house… (if you get this, I will love you forever)

Celia was pregnant once again with her third child (hopefully a girl), and Lynette was pretty excited.

Lynette: MORE GRANDKIDS! YESSS! MORE PEOPLE TO HELP ME TERRORIZE THE TOWNSPEOPLE!

Celia: Uh…Mom?

Random old people constantly feel the need to enter the Manchester’s yard UNINVITED in the middle of the night. I always end up locking the gate doors, though.

Do you see Nancy Landgraab? You do? Good. She’s carrying Dominic Manchester’s* child! Later on the child was a boy named
Tad.

*Dominic is Stiles’ son by Zelda Mae, the hooker.

Celia: OHSHIT OHSHIT OHSHIT OHSHIT.

What’s wrong now, Celia? Did you hit your finger with a hammer?

Celia: THE BABY’S COMING! GET ME TO A HOSPITAL RIGHT NOW!

Notice, I still had her work on her inventing skill through her pregnancy. :)

I guess even gorillas get upset by childbirth.

LOOK AT THIS WOMAN.

And thus Celia gave birth to her THIRD SON, Paddington, who is Insane and Clumsy. Just as I was about to restart my game and replay the pregnancy so that Celia would have a girl rejoice at my good fortune, Jeramie came out with ANOTHER child…

A girl! I named her Lily and she’s Brave and Disciplined. *yawn* So far the only interesting child is Paddington! Damn, children put a little PIZZAZZ! in my life for goodness’ sakes!

That being said, it was finally time for Theodore to age up! I had my fingers crossed for Daredevil, Inappropriate, or SOMETHING funny…

…And he rolled Frugal. OMFG Theodore, seriously?

Lynette: How am I supposed to terrorize the town with kids like THIS?

I concur, Lynette. I concur.

And since he disappointed me so much, I decided NOT to give him a makeover, and let him walk around in whatever nonsense clothing he chose to wear.

Theodore: Did you know I bought this shirt for 2% off? How exciting! Okay, it’s time to watch QVC.

Really, though. How else is a frugal, yet excitable couch potato supposed to act?

D’aw. Okay he’s cute when he smiles.

Theodore: WOAH! If I call now, I can get a coupon book for 67 cents less than a normal day! Dad, what’s your credit card number?

Angeles aged up that same day, and for some reason I really love this picture. I actually feel bad that Angeles is hated by everyone in town and by his own daughters. His wife barely likes him.

But I do. I like you Angeles :)

I’m speechless, actually.

Angeles actually looks really good for an old guy! And his Chinese garb must mean…

Angeles: That’s right! I’m no longer buying any product made in China!

…I was thinking that you and Lynette might want to take a vacation there?

Angeles: -.-

LOL. Her face. Cheezin’ too hard…

Lynette: TA-DAAA! The magical sparkle fairy is IN THE BUILDING! BOO-YAH!

She’s already senile…Quick, someone order a few hundred bottles of medicine…

^_^ Lynette is so pretty! Honestly, I’ve never seen an Elder Sim that looked this attractive! She could pass for an adult! Well, an adult with gray hair and a hunched back….

But whatever! She’s still so pretty!

Lynette: And I shall use my beguiling charms to…to…

Let me guess, terrorize the neighborhood?

Lynette: I have to go to the bathroom!

OH MY DAMN. Get a load of Theodore in this picture. He’s doing the same thing Jesse used to do! This is fucking creepy. EVERY TIME an elder Sim retires, one of the children or toddlers gets FREAKISHLY TALL and does something. This time, Theodore decided to protest…

Yetis. Ah, yes, he decided to protest the growing Yeti population in Sunset Valley. >.>

Jeramie: *singing lullaby softly* Oh, I love my children so much…

Even though Lily is the baby everyone keeps rolling wishes for…

Angeles: Please. Just kill me right now. I cannot stand another minute in this house full of children!

That’s right, people, the house is COMPLETELY FULL. Four kids and four adults. So basically I do what I always do in this situation: ignore the Elder Sims and let them do whatever the hell they want. Except for Lynette. She’s too beautiful for that kind of treatment. @_@

Lynette: Relax everyone! There’s plenty of signed 8×11 glossy photos to go around…

*sigh* See why I love her?

Anyways, next tiiiime: The babies grow up because babies are boring! Drama with family members around town!

AND A SPECIAL BONUS FEATURE POST OF ANGELES AND LYNETTE’S VACATION TO CHIIIINAAAAAA!

Thanks for reading and see you next time1

3.2 Keep the Ball Rolling

So when we last left the Manchester family (awkward jump-right-in-intro), Celia had just had her first son, Theodore, who is an Excitable Couch Potato. That’s right, I bold traits now.

Luckily, the night of Theodore’s birth was also the night of the twins’ birthdays.

Winifred grew into a smarmy young lass, and I can’t remember what trait she rolled…Eh, oh well.

Winnie: So…does that mean I’m the heiress now?

Uh, no. Sorry Win. Now go throuw yourself into the vast world of Story Progression:D Good luck!

Melody grew up in a farm outfit that I was too lazy to change her out of. If she’s just gonna move out in a few seconds anyway, why bother?

I’m pretty sure she rolled the Loner trait, which fits her PERFECTLY.

Melody: Just hail me a taxi and I’ll be on my way, thankyouverymuch.

Lynette: BANGING THINGS WITH HAMMERS IN ORDER TO EMIT SPARKLIES IS SURE TO DO THE TRICK!

What exactly are you trying to…Nevermind.

Celia rolled a want to start blowing up random crap, so I had her take out this desire on the bicycle that I’ve kept in the front yard since Lucy’s days.

Celia: KABOOOOOOM! MWAHAHAHAHAHAH

Celia: KABOOOOOOOM! MWAHAHAHHAHAHA!

Random Fat Man: I hate that woman. I hate her with every blubbery fiber of my being.

Not long after that, while working on her newest invention, Celia threw up a little in her hands.

Celia: Somebody get me a toilet!

Now if you had blown UP the toilet, like you wanted, you’d probably be barfing all over the floors….

Celia: *death stare*

Because she’s crazy, Lynette went out to get a tattoo from a creepy old woman.

Lynette, I don’t think she’s an employee here, and I know that you’re just doing this for more face time.

Lynette: *ignores*

SKANK!

Celia: Oh shut up! This is my new pregnancy garb!

o_o No way.

Celia: Way. Now excuse me while I go blow up debris in a public lot.

Lynette: Ah, stealing candy from children…It makes me feel like an authority figure again!

Especially since nobody cares about your husband anymore and he’s a LAUGHING STOCK?

Although kudos to Lynette for being a FOUR STAR CELEBRITY. Did I mention that already?

Lynette: You can mention it as many times as you feel necessary.

I BUILT THEM THE CUTEST LITTLE OUTHOUSE FOR WHEN THEY HAVE PARTIES AND STUFF! ^_^

Tania Goth, at the birthday party for Theodore, made her way over to Angeles to try to get some.

Tania: Soo…Do you come here often?

She’s been trying to get herself married into the legacy for YEARS. And now that Celia’s got a boy…

Tania: Must. Shake. Tail. Feather. Attractively.

Oh look it’s Jesse! Yeah, he and Melody are dressed the same…It’s probably why he has that creepy…look on his face. Even though he’s her uncle. >.>

Thinking he was being funny, Jeremy decided to set Theodore down on the floor to age up…INSIDE. And the party is OUTSIDE. -__-

TODDLER SPAM :p

Well Theodore is a little cutie, except…He is kinda just Face 1 Spawn, like his pa (thanks Natalie for point THAT one out). But I’m hoping to add new INTERESTING genes to the family with World Adventures!

In all her inventing glory, Celia managed to create this thing called the Miner so she can find AWESOME NEW GEMS and shit to sell for the family. Because they need the money. Because I want them to be able to afford to go to France. So yeah. They need the money.

Celia: AGHHHH! I’M TOO WEAK FROM PREGNANCY-NESS TO OPERATE HEAVY MACHINERY!

Lalalalalalalallaalallalala I can’t heaaaar youuu.

The first thing she found?

A Mysterious Mr. Gnome, who I named Chuck.

BOOYAH!

So then-ohheylookatthis Samantha’s pregnant too! But she thought the Lynette was “being creepy” when she asked to rub her tummy. She’s your MOM.

Someone’s still bitter about not being chosen as heiress.

Samantha: My spawn will come and eat your brains.

Later on Samantha had a daughter named Kisha.

Celia: *huff huff* OHGOSH. I’M GOING INTO LABOR. OH GOSH. OH GOSH.

Celia: On the bright side, maybe my kid will be evil too? *shrugs* OH well, better just waddle on over to the hospital!

Celia: Dammit.

So this time she had ANOTHER boy. Grrr. I named him Finn after the tv show character and the book character. And I don’t even watch the show, I just think the main character’s cute. His traits are Grumpy and Artistic. I’m already picturing him in France and getting happy…

Come on now, Celia? REALLY?

Celia: Yes. Really. I want a girl.

Eh. So do I, actually. So keep on popping out those babies!

Next Time: Finn grows up because the baby stage is hell-a boring. Celia has a THIRD CHILD of the _____ gender (I don’t even know yet). Things catch on fire.

Until next time! Thanks for reading and happy simming!
