In a Bad Sims Slump
I love the sims (first three anyway), but I'm having a difficult time making interesting Sims. A while ago I made a guy who I got attached to, but I find it hard to get attached to my own Sims because...

Are there any skills or jobs, or even random activities, that you've never tried, or haven't in a while? Even if whatever it is doesn't feel as appealing as what your sims normally do, it can be a breath of fresh air for a few sim-weeks. For example, running a daycare is unlike anything else in-game; so is playing a homeless sim that you're trying to keep homeless, i.e. not rags to riches.
One of my favorite things to do is to have a sculptor sim try to furnish the house with sculptures as much as possible. (For example, not only chairs and bedside tables but sinks and toilets and whatever else they can make.) I've also been planning to have an inventor sim use the miner to put tunnels all over town, which other sims will then hopefully be able to use for adventures and to travel across the map quickly without my having to buy them all teleporters.
There are so many activities for our sims to do, pretty much every player has something they haven't tried yet.
Woah, I never even knew about the miner stuff and the sculptor idea is cool because maybe one could make a challenge with having said sim make most of the furniture. Thanks so much.
And yeah, there are skills I haven't done along with jobs, so I should really think about which ones to go for. I'll try and do a story of some sort. I think my main problem is I tend to make sims who don't have many flaws and sometimes that can be boring.
But thanks for the ideas =). Maybe I'll also role a dice or something for random traits for the sims as well. I know some people do this to keep things interesting. Thanks again!
