Long Week 6: Dreams

Last week, the Long family lost a dog and gained a son.

The Long family currently includes:
Ben, Knowledge/Fortune adult, owner of a toy store and stay-at-home dad
Ivy, Knowledge/Fortune adult, owner of a park and renowned scientist
Heather, child
Joshua, child

We start the week with a birthday, as is becoming tradition in the BACC. Heather becomes a Family/Pleasure teen who wants to be Captain Hero someday. She is turned on by good cooks who are unemployed and turned off by perfume.

Nothing else interesting happens until Thursday, at which point the park reaches Rank 3. (At some point Ivy also earns a gold fishing badge.)

That same day, Ben finally gets a job as an ambassador's intern, putting him on the path to his LTW. (Note to self: Do tours of the various NPC lots.)

On Saturday, Ivy is promoted to Theorist and Ben to Spelunker.

The kids are home alone for 5 1/2 hours and literally spend the entire time playing chess. As a result, Heather maxes her logic skill.

Then Joshua joins his sister in teenagehood. He's Romance/Popularity (his poor parents won't know what to do with him), wants to be a General, is turned on by underwear and cooking skill, and is turned off by blond hair. Apparently both he and Heather really dislike their father's cooking. (Ivy is a pretty good cook, but she's never home.)

Ben ends the week on a high note by getting promoted to Multiregional Sim of Some Question.

Progress toward challenge:
Jobs opened: 1/12 Science
Taxes collected: $1400/$52,170
