Addicted to Sims?

I'm a chronic insomniac.  So much so that my doctor has prescribed medication to help me sleep when it gets too bad.  It's been very helpful.

Last night, I took a pill and went downstairs to read until the pill took effect.  I remember putting my book down, turning off the lights and going upstairs. That's the last thing I remember before waking up this morning.

Hubby told me he woke up at 2:30 and watched television until he felt sleepy, again.  He did this in our bedroom.  I was sure I was in bed before 2:30.  He said the light was on in the office and he assumed I was in there.  Huh?  What?  I don't remember this at all so I decided to see if I could figure out what the heck I was doing.

I was playing Sims.  I have new saves for the Gwen game.  I have screenshots (some are really, really bad).  Apparently, Gwen slept with at least four sims (made out with?  Woohooed?)!  She had at least one party.  Gavin is a toddler!  I...don't remember any of it.  What the heck did I do?! *snorts*

I'm greatly amused.  I'm adding a couple of the screenies.


I was taking screenshots in buildmode. 


 Head?  Who needs the top of their head?  Pfft.


Um...okay.


 It's a broken computer.  How riveting!  And what an interesting angle and distance!


What?  Nice building shot.  Gwen is featured so prominently.  As are the backs of those sims.

    It's like you were drunk through your character. That is just... waaay too funny. Still a little worrisome that you're sleep-Simming or something, but... I mean, really. Gwen slept with four sims? Sounds like one reaaaaallly epic party.

    *still laughing*

  2. Oh, and, I wanna see some of these screenshots. ;D

  3. I added a couple shots. I have more but they feature toddler Gavin. Or part of him, anyway.

    I have pics of Gwen macking on four different sims. Screenshots of her in bed with one and screenies of another one in his undies so I'm assuming they woohooed.

  4. I'm still laughing!

    I almost wonder if you actually did sleep and your husband is just playing with your head, but, I doubt he'd know how to do much in the game, especially taking screenshots of it.

    Hahahaa.. So have you decided what to do about the game? Gonna revert to a past save, or try to roll with it?

  5. I need to really check that last save and make sure I didn't do anything crazy in build mode. Or that she's pregnant.

    I'm interested to see if she likes one of the guys better than the others. If need me I can recreate screenies in old saves for the blog.

  6. If need *BE*. Not if need me.

    Kaleeko, there's no way hubby would mess with my game. We're serious gamers in this house. Some things are a very severe no no.

  7. So you don't sleep walk, you sleep play Sims.

    I'm sure it will be interesting to find out who Gwen has been sleeping with and can we have names of the guys she's been kissing? :) I hope that nothing seriously bad happened and you can play on.

    Though poor Gavin didn't get that birthday party with his doodlehead dad.

  8. Hehehe. Well, it was an idea. ;) Both my husband and I are gamers as well (heck, we met over WoW), but every now and then we play a bit of a joke on each other. Usually nothing major, though.

    Still, I really think it's hilarious... The Report's Headline: Gwen, having dipped into a little too much wine, has recently awoken only to discover her house a mess, her son a stage older, and a mysterious number of love notes from Sims wanting to get together with her "again". ^^

  9. My husband is pretty amused. I still haven't had a chance to check out the last save.

    Funny, hubby and I were just discussing old games. He had Pong when we first started dating. I was mucho impressed. *laughs*

  10. Whoa. I just did a quick look at the saves. I have one at 2:30, one at 5:22 and the last one is at 5:30. I played for nearly three hours?!

    I know who she likes. She has three wishes all related to one sim. I'll have to think about what to do. Three hours is a lot of game time.

  11. My husband had an Apple ][ when we started dating. That was very impressive, not many people had home computers in those days!

    I have literally lost some sleep over Sims by worrying if my game crashed or when glitches like Brooke's post pregnancy happen and I don't know what to do. Very addicting game.

  12. I'm glad you find it amusing because I find it downright hilarious. I can't stop laughing. I even had to go tell my husband about this one. And I thought I was addicted. *cracks up again*

  13. I've dreamed about them, fell asleep thinking about them, woke up thinking about them, I have even been known to walk and talk in my sleep many times. So far I haven't played the game in my sleep.

  14. I guess sleepwalking,talking, etc is a pretty common side effect with Ambien.

    It could have been worse, I guess.

  15. It sure could've. :) I think it's really funny that of all things, you decided to play the Sims... And I'm really glad that of all things, that IS what you did.

    I really hope there's no lasting damage to Gwen's game, though. It'd really stink if you'd done something really major like get her married and pregnant again, with no record of the event.

  16. I am so looking forward to the update. Even if you don't continue with the game as it is. Please update us about what all happened.

    Chrysame, I have been known to walk down stairs, answer questions, the whole works in my sleep. and that's without medication.

  17. Wow, Dee! I have zero experience with this type of thing. Hubby said he's going to keep an eye on me the next time I take them.

    I'm torn about what to do with the game but I'm leaning towards just going with it.

  18. Unless something disastrous happened, I'd roll with the new save.

    Dying to know who Gwen has wants about!

    ReplyDelete
  19. Me too. Inquiring minds want to know.
    I'm glad he's going to keep an eye on you. You getting out of bed may be the reason he woke up in the first place.

  20. I'm cobbling together pictures right now. I have some I can work with.

    I spent a little time in game trying to figure out what was going on. Thank goodness for Twallan's mods. It's easy to find out who is with who, etc.
