So, a very important update from the crazy world of the virtual Omniglot household. Cata Omniglot tried to cook and set the house on fire THREE times (twice in the same day), and then fell down on the floor in a hysterical fit and then a little therapist flew down from the sky and hypnotized her until she was...back to...normal Cata. This was followed by an epidemic of the flu (or mono? who knows...) that struck the whole house and left us all bedridden for a couple of days. I blame Sam Omniglot. Michael Omniglot, of course, has accelerated ahead of everyone in the departments of music, art, logic, cooking and every other skill point category. However, the game has proven once and for all that Becky Omniglot makes the most amazing noodles out of everyone. She is the resident culinary expert. They had a big house party the other day, and there is this brilliant function where you can click the stereo for each Sim and select the option "Dance the Smustle," and then, no matter where they are in the house, they all break out into this ridiculous choreographed dance number. It's kind of amazing. And I have to admit, I get incredibly nostalgic when all of the Omniglots are chatting on the floor of Dan Omniglot's room, especially since the Sims sound effects are human voices but nonsensical words, as if they were speaking different languages. There are times I swear it sounds like Arabic...or maybe Russian...and it makes me smile.

Which brings me to...they need jobs! But the options are lame, so I've decided to let you choose your own fate. I had Laura Omniglot enter the "politics" career track, and I'm just pretending in my head that she's actually some cool UN diplomat and not the mayor's intern (though I did just get promoted, booya). Let me know which one of these tracks you'd like your Sim to enter: military, culinary, law enforcement, athletic, politics, business, criminal, medicine, science, and slacker. Or you could just shake your head and tell me to pack for Chile instead of spending time on this Sims nonsense.

Okay, that's all I have to say for now. My actual life is comparatively boring and irrelevant. I thank your virtual selves for giving me something to think about :)
