So, my computer is rebuilt. Everything works beautifully, especially World of Warcraft: Cataclysm, which is possible to play for HOURS with no issues. (Multiple graphics issues were what were messing with my computer before. It also runs cooler than ever- in fact, cool air blows out of the front of the case now.) I'm able to play the Sims2 again, though last night it threw me a "D3DERR_NOTAVAILABLE" error and crashed when the nanny showed up (and after playing for about three hours). Supposedly, this means my DirectX needs fixing, so I downloaded the latest one for my system and reinstalled it. I guess I'll find out later if it fixes the problem. (Weirdest of all, that an old program like The Sims 2 should throw this error, but Cataclysm, which I can run easily on very high graphics settings for six hours straight has no issues- I think it's a Sims 2 specific issue.)
ANYWAY. What this means is I have a small Eighties ISBI update, since I wanted to play a family that didn't require as much thinking. When we left off last time, Jenny Eighties met and married Luiz Campbell and had a set of twins named Jack and Diane. She's working on her LTW of becoming a celebrity chef, which means she has to work menial jobs in restaurants.

We start with Jenny making breakfast for the rest of the family before she heads off to work. She's actually not a terrible mother.

And that's all for part three- sorry for the awkward ending. Tune in next time to see if Luiz continues to ignore his kids, if his kids manage to off themselves by their own stupidity, and if Jenny can hold it all together!
