WHY!!!! Why Why Why Why Why!!!!

I have been awake since 7:00am mst.  I made breakfast (two pieces of toast and cottage cheese), created a house, decorated it, made it into a home a sim would like to live in.  I started playing the game, started doing some of the quests available, and BOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMM!  The game froze... I could not restart, I could not pass go, I could not collect $200.

All of my hard work

Gone

Down the drain

Deader than the grim reaper or my love life.

Deader than my youth, hopes and dreams, etc.
