I return to the rental as a married man, which, honestly, I never would have predicted would be the case when we first arrived yesterday morning. The place seems different, almost brighter somehow. It’s incredible what happens to one’s entire outlook when the things you wish so hard for suddenly…

Maia calls her father to tell him about the engagement, and that she and Wade are eloping. Unlike Me-Me, Clyde doesn’t care about weddings and big formal affairs. But it matters that Dub has the money to care for his daughter. Clyde: *on the phone* So he’s finally putting a…
The house is quiet, and everyone else is asleep when we return to the rental. It’s officially the morning of our wedding, but we don’t wait until after exchanging vows to begin our honeymoon. We are in the world’s most romantic city and are drunk on its effects, so we…
Drake swims a few laps in the pool. He’s glad that Dub invited him on this trip. Traveling and seeing more of the Sim world has always been on his to-do list, but a big part of him wishes he had more time to prepare. Drake steps out of the…

Tambara finally joins me in the living room to play, but it seems she likes the rough and tumble stuff. I lift her and swing her around. She rewards me with all her cute little giggles and smiles. A call from Ma interrupts our playtime. Maybe I’m paranoid, but my…
I finally discover the best time to work on my SimTube channel, and that’s when everyone else is asleep—or at least in bed. I finish editing and uploading my video with no interruptions. Then I walk around the house doing what my dad always did when we were growing up:…
