Excerpts from the diary of Maison Baron:

Week One -
I've agreed to confine myself to an 8x8 foot room and work toward acquiring a 350k home. I have the Creative, Genius and Music Lover traits and have chosen Freelance Botanist as my first aspiration, which gives me the Collector trait. Not sure how much good THAT will do me!

Sunday
Have moved into my box. Managed to escape once while the Godess went into Manage Neighborhood to DL a house for someone else, but she caught me and threw me back in before I could so much as wave at the neighbors. Decided not to bother with bathroom walls - who's going to see me? Planted spinach, parsley, basil, carrots, grapes and mushrooms I ordered from online. Had to throw the two apples and the plantain into the fridge - it's not like I know how to cook with them anyway.

Monday
Tended garden, mopped floor. Have to do that alot because I'm not too proficient with the watering can yet. Postman ran past my window and threw a postcard over the fence from my new penpal in Riverview. Finding myself suddenly laughing maniacally and drumming my heels on the floor for no apparent reason more often than I'd like. The Godess took my radio because I had it on constantly and it was taking too long for me to do everything *sigh*

Tuesday
Working on my programming skills and chatting online. Haven't fallen into critical social deprivation yet, but you can't really make any friends that way. Big excitement as I was eating my salad for dinner - the parsley plant beside the table started sparkling and evolved. His name is Wesley.

Wednesday
I can see lemons on a tree out one window and cherries and onions growing out another. I wonder if I could bribe the mailman with some carrots and spinach to pick some for me? If he'd bring me a tomato, I think I'd agree to have his children. A dragonfly keeps flying through the house. His name is Steve.

Thursday
The blackberries are growing on the bush almost right outside my window. I think if I could get the window open I could...almost...reach them! The grape plant finally evolved last night. Hoping it will grow fruit today so I can plant one and finish Nature Walker on my FB aspiration. Noticed when I decided to research gardening on the computer I also had the ability to research pick-up lines. Who am I going to pick up? Steve?

Friday
The grape plant finally grew fruit, so I completed the Nature Walker phase of my aspiration by planting another grape. The next phase requires me to harvest from 20 different plants, which could be a challenge. I can hardly walk in here now with 10 plants. I decided to plant five more mushrooms. They grow fast and I should be able to uproot them and plant five more. Had to store the easel to make room. Autonomously painted a Social Bunny today. Afraid to examine too closely what that means.

Saturday
Plants are evolving nicely. I realized that, after I'd watered the plants, I could talk to Wesley. I'm afraid that if I'm here too long he may start answering me. I haven't seen Steve in two days. He must have been reading over my shoulder when I wrote about the pick-up lines. How embarrassing! Haven't seen the postman lately either, even though I requested postcards from two more of my penpals. Glad HE couldn't read over my shoulder! I'm sure he'll be back with bills on Monday. Had to buy expensive trash can that chews up trash and gives rebates when the toilet broke. Where would I empty a regular one?

I think I may be off to bed soon.

ETA: I think I know. You're buying potters and buying seeds, right?
