I love Sims. you build a pool, and take out the ladder, they swim till they drown. or rooms, and then remove the doors. too funny. I love that silly game. I just got the Sims3, and its pretty good. I love that they can actually leave the dang house. The gardening is great too. Its great that they can learn skills from watching TV. In the past, you had to have them read, read, and read more. it was exhausting, and their moods dropped so quickly.
I hope you feel better.
