My sim was invited on a date and I agreed. I should probably have sent her fishing because I had to get her fishing skill up for work, but I felt bad declining the date. Through the magic of the Sims, I decided to make the best of the situation and do both. I had my date follow me to the fishing pond across the street and I fished while he read a book.
Don't try this in real life. You will not get away with it. Your date will be offended. ;)
