I remember being at Gamestop (around 2000) with my then boyfriend (now Hubby) and taking the game off the shelf. I commented it might be a fun distraction. My son (who is grown now) was little and after I had put him to bed, I loaded up the game. The next thing I knew it was 2 a.m. I couldn't believe I lost track of time. I was hooked. I've been playing most forms of The Sims since then.
My Hubs specifically bought me the laptop I"m typing this post on so that I could do school work and keep up with the SIMS updates. I actually miss Makin' Magic a bit and I do miss TSO a lot. I played that game often. It was during my time on TSO that I found what the game means to me and why I like it so much. I was chatting with a roomie (female) when I pondered why I like the game so much, especially at our ages (we were all in our 30's) and girls. She said, "It's like when we were little and playing with our dollhouses". It made so much sense. It is my virtual dollhouse.
