My Thoughts

Yes folks Jelli has an addiction. Hello my name is Jelli and I am a SIM addict. I’ve been a SIM addict for about 4 years now. It starts with the SIMS and blossomed when EA games started creating all the expansion packs. Like a pusher selling his poison, I started talking about the SIMs with my friends and co-workers and some of them started playing the games. So we would compare notes on what our SIMS did the night before or how we could do some new feature that we found by accident. It was like the SIMS was the hot news event of the day but as time wore on and the day to day trappings of life took its toll of their and my SIM playing time. Or it could be that their fascination with the game wore off but whatever the reason they and I didn’t play the game as much or if at all. The SIMS CD sat on my desk collecting dust while I made my music CDs or surfed the net or IM’ed my family and friends. I thought I was cured but then EA did it to me again. Yes, they came out with a SIMS 2, which like some Playstation games it’s much bigger and better. The SIMS gets days off from work, the kids grow up, you can choose from more jobs, there are more objects for the home, etc. So I purchased the SIMS 2 and low and behold, like a recovering addict who get a little taste of the drug of their choice, I am off the wagon and SIMing (if that is a word) again. And yes I am still pushing it on my friends and co-workers.
