Right now, they're still equal and Chloe Hamilton has also joined them at the same job level. So she's in the mix now too. <br /><br />I definitely feel for Lila with the Josh and Elspeth thing too, though I do think it's something she'll get over. It's interesting that Sims usually roll a want to fall back in love with their exes when they're on dates but Lila has never rolled that for Josh. So I figure there's not even anything little lingering there. It would still be weird though, no matter how you feel about your ex!<br /><br />Connor and Lila are <i>so</i> in love, which I'm sure he never thought would happen to him (and I was doubting that myself!), so moving in together is just the next natural step for them. I'm excited about it too, but I haven't started looking around at houses yet. I'll see how much money they have after Connor's next play session. <br /><br />The only clue I'll give for Connor's "One" is that it is definitely a woman (Connor's completely straight, not bisexual or anything) and she's also in her 20s, like Connor. That narrows it down a little but not much! I'll definitely reveal all this round!<br /><br />Thanks for reading and commenting!Carlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09140819019098738245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-77238786438859764942012-07-23T07:03:20.511+10:002012-07-23T07:03:20.511+10:00Aww, I know Connor was a little bitter about start...Aww, I know Connor was a little bitter about starting lower than Oliver in the SCIA. But like Lila said, there are so many reasons why they probably targeted Oliver and not him. You never know. He could zoom past Oliver in a couple of years depending on who works harder.<br /><br />So it finally happened! Josh and Elspeth an item! It's about freakin' time! I think I'd feel a little weird about my friend and my ex dating, especially in Lila, Josh and Elspeth's situation. That's a sticky one. At least Elspeth gave her a heads up about it. Still. I dunno. I wanna feel happy for them but I feel for Lila, too.<br /><br />And yay! Connor's thinking marriage! And buying a house! Very excited for these 2 :D. You have me really curious who Connor's "One" really is! I was going to guess but you have a lot of sims.Daniellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07006019503835147657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-18573408239300980492012-07-04T08:50:49.873+10:002012-07-04T08:50:49.873+10:00Connor and Josh never liked each other much in the...Connor and Josh never liked each other much in their early teens but they became friends when they both started working in the teen politics career. They've got a few things in common but it's not apparent at first - no one expects Connor to be sporty or for Josh to be kind of a brain!<br /><br />LOL, I knew you'd be happy about Josh and Elspeth! I'm pretty thrilled about it myself. Poor Josh has been waiting since he was 12. ;) You're right that Josh and Elspeth have done a lot of growing up in the last few years and they're a lot more invested in making a relationship work now. Elspeth is really ready for a good one - she's only ever been with Chris! - so I hope Josh is that one for her. <br /><br />I've made a note to reveal Connor's supposed One True Sim in her update next round. It is <i>ridiculous</i>. I mean, I know most of this personality I've created for Connor is in my head and on the blog and not in the game...but honestly, even considering that I'm kind of surprised at this! He and Lila make so much more sense. And the wants don't lie!<br /><br />Thanks for reading and commenting!Carlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09140819019098738245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-51580287580746424762012-07-04T03:14:26.825+10:002012-07-04T03:14:26.825+10:00Connor and Josh are complete opposites, but it loo...Connor and Josh are complete opposites, but it looks like they're making the roommate situation work. I guess when you don't see each other much, you don't really notice another person in your space.<br /><br />AAAAAAH JOSHANDELSPETH! Finally I can stop the outbursts. You know how long I've been waiting for them to hook up, but everyone has been right about it being best now as opposed to earlier. And besides, Elspeth used to be quite a diva and Josh was very immature when he was younger, so for them as much as for Lila's sake the wait was for their benefit.<br /><br />I can't wait though for Connor and Lila to move in together! And I do want to see this supposed One True Sim of Connor's, because right now I can't see anyone onther than Lila able to tolerate him; he's still something of an oddball.Finihttp://nh.infinitynevermore.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-70061877436067793302012-07-02T14:26:58.392+10:002012-07-02T14:26:58.392+10:00Connor is so much fun for me to write about.

I could not imagine him letting Oliver's position go by without commenting on it. ;)<br /><br />And yes, Josh and Elspeth! I've hardly had time to do much with them at all yet but there'll be more on them when I play Elspeth's house in the first half of next round. Which reminds me I need to put the Round 34 play schedule up!<br /><br />Thanks for reading and commenting!Carlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09140819019098738245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-25831107706432192732012-07-02T13:44:23.351+10:002012-07-02T13:44:23.351+10:00I still love Connor!

Which I am really looking forward to, actually. <br /><br />Josh and Elspeth have waited long enough, huh? This was the first time Elspeth and Lila's friendship has been stable enough for Elspeth to feel okay about bringing up the topic of Josh. So it was a long time but it was necessary, lol.<br /><br />Thanks for reading and commenting!Carlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09140819019098738245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-9182561433952514662012-07-01T19:39:14.260+10:002012-07-01T19:39:14.260+10:00I always love reading about your roommates!

Think we might be waiting a while on babies but I can definitely see them cropping up some day in the future. ;)<br /><br />Which reminds me of Connor's supposed "true love" according to the game and ACR. I'm making a note to share that with you all next round. I think you will find her as improbable a match for Connor as I do!<br /><br />Elspeth and Lila were still on shaky ground up until a couple of years ago, so they definitely needed this time to get their friendship back on an even keel. Elspeth wouldn't have risked anything with Josh before doing that. But they're together now, so we'll see what happens with them in the future.

I remember wondering who he'd end up with, because he was always such an oddball, but with Lila, they totally make sense together. He's such a cutie too, I'm also interested in mini versions of them. <br /><br />I'm glad Josh and Elspeth are making a go of it! About freaking time!! But I honestly think this is the best timing for them too. Before it would have just been too soon especially if she wanted to nurture her friendship with Lila.maisiehttp://www.retromaisie.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-58662986516964298162012-06-29T09:00:23.021+10:002012-06-29T09:00:23.021+10:00I actually, shockingly, have not considered Lila/C...I actually, shockingly, have not considered Lila/Connor babies! But you're right, they'd be adorable. They would be bound to have very pouty lips too; Connor's were very pouty when he was little. <br /><br />I know, my Sims must hate me for making them wait for so long. This was the best time for Elspeth and Josh to finally happen though, in my view. Lila has good, good things going on in her life now and she knows that. Once she sees Josh and Elspeth getting together is not really going to affect her life in any way, she'll be okay. :)<br /><br />I've shown Connor without his glasses a few times, I think. Definitely at least once, anyway. And yeah, Connor and Lila are over at each other's places all the time when I play them. It's merely a formality now. ;)<br /><br />Thanks for reading and commenting!Carlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09140819019098738245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-72077938103896073092012-06-29T08:22:49.961+10:002012-06-29T08:22:49.961+10:00I can't wait for Lila and Connor to move in to...I can't wait for Lila and Connor to move in together! I may be getting a bit ahead of myself but they would make such adorable babies! Haha. More houses for you to decorate :) Always a good thing for me though because I love the way you decorate- It makes me want to re-do all my houses. lol.<br />Thank god Josh and Elspeth finally got together, it only took forever! I hope Lila can get over it. I guess it wont be too long before she is concentrating on moving house and stuff so hopefully that will take her mind off it. I can see how it would be weird though- especially when they live so close and Elspeth is her roommate!<br />I had to laugh at Connor's reaction to Oliver. It just seems so like him to be so competitive. And is this the first time we've seen Connor without glasses on? He looks so different but I like it ;) With him and Lila both in their PJ's it looks like they have practically moved in together anyway!Hannahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08275447135711440429noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-334788507684768412012-06-28T15:15:22.755+10:002012-06-28T15:15:22.755+10:00Lila was hoping she wouldn't have to think abo...Lila was hoping she wouldn't have to think about what happened with Josh and Elspeth again but them getting together has brought it back for her a bit. It's not too pleasant for Connor to hear about but he's quite confident that it's something she'll get used to. I definitely don't see her staying hung up on this for long. <br /><br />Honestly, I don't know about the careers! I cheated them both in with InSim and they came out as different levels. Maybe Oliver's skills were slightly higher? I find that hard to believe though, because as a playable NPC, Oliver didn't get played nearly as much as Connor did as a teen and I pretty much sped through his sessions in college too. <br /><br />As for the house buying, that question I can answer! My Sims can get loans if they don't have the cash to buy a house but Connor and Lila are both Hoarders. I don't see either of them being willing to go into debt if there's a chance they can avoid it. So some of my Sims take out loans but Connor and Lila will not, at least at this stage.<br /><br />Thanks for reading and commenting!Carlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09140819019098738245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-45649667947633488642012-06-28T15:08:59.923+10:002012-06-28T15:08:59.923+10:00Heh, yes!

I think Connor's career "woes", if you could call them that, is just the universe's way of evening things out a little. ;)<br /><br />I think Lila will get over Josh and Elspeth. Lila knows how good she has it with Connor right now and wouldn't go back to Josh even if she could. It's just new and it's still a little weird for her, especially seeing they all live on top of each other. Josh and Connor live together, as do Lila and Elspeth but even their apartment buildings are right across the road from each other!<br /><br />I love me some roommate households! I'm always sad when my Sims say goodbye to this time in their lives - it's always fun for me.<br /><br />Thanks for reading and commenting!Carlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09140819019098738245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-63817922694755518972012-06-28T14:06:48.001+10:002012-06-28T14:06:48.001+10:00She has a great boyfriend, why is she so hung up o...She has a great boyfriend, why is she so hung up on her ex. That has to be uncomfortable for Conner. I can't wait to see their new place, as usual :) two questions<br /><br />How do you cheat them into careers and it occurs that they enter at different levels?<br />How do you determine house buying, do they need to pay cash or can they get loans?Apple Valleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15211791410107503046noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-24555118682871705762012-06-28T13:39:49.778+10:002012-06-28T13:39:49.778+10:00Connor may have "lost" to Oliver with hi...Connor may have "lost" to Oliver with his career, but he's got a smokin' hot lady in Lila. I think he wins all the games with that one! She's so pretty!<br /><br />Connor is a good guy, but I hope Lila's preoccupation with Josh and Elspeth dies down a bit. It always smarts when something like that happens, but she's in a better situation now. I guess it's worse because they are always around one another.<br /><br />It's fun having households that are just roommates! It always feels like there's a lot going on.
