1.4 - Coffee Courier

Kerry sent out dozens of job applications but so far without any success. Her job counselor had told her that her options are very limited without a high school diploma and that she'd do good to accept any offer she can get, whether that means being a cleaning lady, a dishwasher, or a bartender. However, he said, if Kerry is determined and can make herself known as an exceptional worker, it's possible to work her way up. It's what Bridgeport is famous for, after all. And Kerry is determined. She can't wait to prove the world that it wasn't laziness or lack of intelligence that caused her to drop out of school, but circumstances she had little control over. In the end she finally gets a call from the place she expected it the least: Professional Procrastination Inc ., better known as 2Pro Inc , a company big enough to allow her to learn and grow. *** The same day Kerry organizes a babysitter for the time of the job interview. Ruby has grown a lot recently ...

Christmas Interlude: Outtakes & Merry Snowflake Day!

Normally I would put them all together at the end of a generation but the last chapter I posted already had so much silliness going on that I thought I might as well do it now as a christmas special ☺ This pic shows Kerry cheering about getting a new job (she's a workaholic). Yes, this is her cheering animation. Can't you see how cheerful her face is? That guy randomly walking by at the perfect moment only made it funnier, I could have totally worked that into the story, looks like she's yelling some obscenities at him! I thought this wish was quite interesting because I didn't know your sim could be gay/bi unless you actively told them to flirt with another girl (which I didn't)! Never had that happen before, or at least I didn't notice. Richie autonomously attacking Kerry who's waiting for her friend. What did Kerry do to awaken Lord Richie's wrath? Nobody knows. Ramo...

1.3 - The smell of fresh baby

Labor was long and torturous. Kerry wonders how there are so many siblings in the world; she sure as hell wouldn't go through that ever again. All the women in the world who had given birth to a baby once and then consciously decided to have another one must either be utterly crazy or have suffered some kind of sweet, sweet memory loss. But despite all that it was love on second sight. Not on first sight because her daughter looked a bit like a bright red potato when she came out, with an oddly shaped head after hours of labor, wrinkly and with puffy swollen eyes; initially a shock for Kerry who has never seen a newborn. But once she had "unfolded" Kerry's motherly instincts took over and it was clear to her that Ruby was the most beautiful baby she has ever seen. Not that she has seen a whole lot of babies in her life, but still. She gave her daughter the name Ruby because of her deep red lips and hair. And of course Kerry stayed true to her word and gave Mr. ...
