Life in the Valdez Household Chapter 3

Paying for gardening services really sucks especially when the bitch doesn't come a lot to help water my garden, I've been real lazy the past couple of days and I've been forgetting that I had a garden. I sometimes think to myself that my green house is way too big! I paid a lot of money to have it made but I think making it too big was a huge mistake because I have too many plants that I need to weed out and water, plus I found out that I had to talk to my plants in order for them to grow healthy, having a garden is tough work!



Tony felt bad because I had to gain weight to keep my cubish figure, so he decided to make pancakes for himself that he needed to gain more weight, we both built our body skills up so we should all be good until we start losing them during jobs.



When Tony said he was going to eat a lot he meant it! He was already gaining some weight, this meant that he wasn't playing around.


I decided that we haven't had many guests come by to visit, so I invited some guests and I was making something delicious on the stove and I ended up burning that, catching fire. Do you know a great invention was the fire detector? It really helps alert the fire department when there is a fire in the house, I always thought that if I didn't have such an invention that I would of died in this fire including the guests who were angry that dinner was canceled.



I bought Tony a new shirt, it was a bear shirt, I thought it was very cute, he loved it and so did other people. Even though he's still working during the morning he still has time to play with Kitty, she really is a big attention whore...



I went out to the market to buy more clothes, with Winter coming in it's been really chilly outside, I've even saw some parts of the neighborhood covered in snow. I made sure I dressed very heavy for when the snow really starts coming down.



Tony went in his tank top again to the grocery store, he told me it wasn't that cold outside but I think he lied about that because it was in the 50's.



After we made it back home we restocked the fridge and put the clothes in the dresser, now we were dressed up in our house clothing, and guess what? Tony kissed me! I felt so loved. After the kiss I heard the dog barking, it was snowing outside again!


Me and Tony went outside and made a snow man! I thought it was kind of cute to do it! The dogs and cats played in the snow for a while until we all went inside and went to bed.



I woke up several times to hear something in our backyard, I had no clue to what the hell it was until I looked out the window and saw this.....Oh my god! It's a penguin! The weird part he was talking to the snow man we made....How funny!



Morning approached and Tony woke up early, it was his day off so he decided to do some painting, I don't know what he was painting but he didn't let me look until it was finished. He's a very good artist!



He painted several more pictures that day, it was a great addition to our room, I think Tony was becoming such an amazing painter that he couldn't stop painting, I added his painting in our room near the bed. It looked amazing! I think that when I had the time I would try to build my skills to be good at painting just like him.....

Life in the Valdez Household Chapter 2

When we moved we had gone through several houses until we found the one to call home. We decided to go with the red house that had a secondary room, it even has a small pond area to go fishing, it's a great house to go through the four different types of Seasons.



I already got to work with designing some of the rooms which made things look very nice, I redesigned the kitchen twice already with the final results looking like this. Sadly the gourmet stove wasn't working properly so I had to remove it from the final design.


Tony was working extremely hard when building up his skills, since Summer was over Fall was approaching and it gave us an extra boost to build up our skills, I was falling behind when it came to learning how to cook, how to clean, and how to fix things. Tony zoomed passed all that and was already on building up his body skills.



He built it up so fast that he lost so much weight! He was very happy to have lost the weight but this created a problem for me more in the next couple of days.



While Tony went to work I was basically working out all the dirty parts of the house fixing stuff that was broken, unclogging the toilet, fixing broken TV's, stereos and showers.



I was doing a tough job, also the cat was getting pretty lonely so I decided to adopt a puppy. I know that in time the cat and dog would enjoy being around each other.



Her name is Suzi, not sure what breed she is but she was a pretty annoying dog. It took about several days for her to grow into a full sized dog which she turned in to this lovely looking dog.



Me and Tony were both happy that we no longer had to take care of a small puppy, so now Suzi and Kitty can play right?



Wrong, the first day it seemed that Suzi and Kitty didn't play well together so we made a room for Suzi to sleep in, I placed a bowl with dog food and a chew toy near his bed. They stopped fighting for a couple of days but their interaction and friendly play was slow and it built up into a friendship. This gave me time to build some of my skills.



When I was finished with all my house chores I decided to go back to building my skills especially the body skills, I worked and worked really hard to max out my skills. But half a day later I came back a new man.



Tony seemed to be happy with my accomplishment of losing all that weight but I decided to gain it all back with eating a lot of food, I knew that I had to have my cub figure body intact so I decided to just eat and eat all day long to get that belly back.



I was really tired so I decided to fall asleep on the couch, but with Tony at work I was alone in the house with a cat and a dog that loved to cause mischief....


Life in the Valdez Household Chapter 1

Life in the Valdez household has been pretty busy, through the months of living together as partners Brandon and Tony have had a lot of accomplishments, and some tragedies in their family.



It all goes back to when Tony and me adopted a child, living back at the old house we first bought was something to start out new memories with and adopting a child was something we wanted to remember. His name was Richard. It was nice to have someone around the house to chat with.



When he stayed for the first couple of days he grew very close with me and Tony and the cat. We made sure he went to school everyday, he was very nice to us the first couple of days, he watched TV, he enjoyed Tony's cooking.



We even changed his appearance to fit our gene type pool. He was very good with school, Tony helped him everyday with his school work. The both of us were great fathers, it was amazing how a gay couple could accomplish this.



But as time went by Richard was becoming less and less interested in school, and one day Richard wasn't paying attention when doing something, he died... He was burned to death when me and Tony were sleeping.



I took it the hardest, I felt it was my fault for not getting up early in the morning to cook him breakfast. As time went by me and Tony decided to move out of the house, it was probably the hardest decision we made because we left Richard's grave back at the old house, but we didn't want him haunting us, so our decision was to leave to another location to start out our new life without children.


My Neighbors


Aki and his Bear Jips

Aki is a person that I've known for a while now, almost a year, he's from Poland. He's been wanting me to design him on The Sims 2, so I decided to put him in here, he doesn't have a job at the moment on the game, but he's in a two bed room house living with his Bear Jips and a room mate Chad and his dog Sox.


Chad and his dog Sox

Chad is a friend that I've known for almost over 5 months now, he's been wanting me to design him on The Sims 2, with the Pets Expansion Pack I was able to add in his dog Sox who almost looks like the same as her picture. He is currently living with his room mate Aki, they both share a house on the game, he's currently not working but within time he will be working soon.


The Bear Family

The Bear Family, they are totally created from my own mind, I'm not really sure of the bald guy's name. But I know the other two are Robert (Red and white shirt) and the other Sam (Green shirt), and the two dog's names have yet again disappeared in my mind. Robert is married to the Bald guy. I do have pictures of the wedding which was held in their backyard. The three of them are unemployed but they will be having a job soon when I'm able to go to their house and work on their skills and other things.


The Bearish Family

This family is yet again created from all my mind, they are all gay bearish looking men, with hair on their bodies (Bears). I'm really glad to have them apart in my neighborhood as there is always something good having bears living near you. This was a big house hold a group of eight men live in this house, I do believe the house has 4 rooms and 3 bathrooms fit for a group of sexy bear guys.

The t-shirt designs are from WoofTease a website for Bear shirts. Some of the designs I used are: A shirt design with the words Bear Inside (Intel Inside), I AMs Bear Food (I AMs Dog Food), BEAR (Sega Logo), iBear (iPod with Bear wearing and holding an iPod), The Bear Depot (The Home Depot), and two originally made shirts by the WoofTease staff Bear Patrol and Club Cub.

Thanks for letting me design the shirts, they add a bear type them to my game especially when designing a family full of bears.

Introducing My Sims


Tony Sim

Tony is my partner in the game and especially in real life. His job right now in the Sims is in Video Editing, he is slowly working his way up the chain, but the only problem he has is raising the bar with Sim friends. He has about 10 Sim friends at the moment and he is still trying to take the time to be with his partner Brandon.


Brandon Sim

Brandon is me, it's been hard trying to reconstruct myself in the game to fit to what I look like in real life, even though Sims basically do exercise on their on free will they usually lose the fat on their body. I'm unemployed at the moment in the game and I've just been a stay at home Dad to three pets.

Suzi, Kitty, and Moossey (Moossey is not pictured)



This is currently the house we live in on the Sims 2. A house that was built just for The Sims 2 Seasons Expansion Pack.
