Rotational players - how do you play?

I play according to my whims. My goal is just to have fun, so I turn aging off and play whichever household I feel like playing. Sometimes I'll favor one household for a while, sometimes I get a new idea for some new Sims and spend a game session or two creating them and finding them the right type of lot on the gallery to live in. I love to interact with my own Sims and have them hook up with each other and breed new Sims, and I tend to populate neighborhoods with themes that I like. (For Example I have an Egyptian neighborhood, old wild West, nomadic "gypsies", Fae, steampunk, Victorian, magical, etc...) I also don't play too realistically so I have many Occult and unusual households.

With so many packs, there's a lot of ideas and options, so I like to explore them when the mood strikes. ?
