I was dreaming about TS2...

[ZephyrZodiac]

Good thing he was only 8!  At 9 he'd probably have rung for the paddywagon!

[Syera]

Especially when it was worn by men like Cary Grant and women like Marlene Dietrich!  I think it's the hats!

Yeah... fedoras are hyper-stylish, in my opinion.  I have one similar to the one worn by Indiana Jones, and I wear it nearly everywhere.  XD

[ZephyrZodiac]

But only Marlene could look REALLY sexy in a beret!

Okay, y'all, I just woke up from a nap. And a sims2 dream.
In real life, my husband and I just made an offer on a house in Atlanta, just to fix up and resell. I incorporated that into my dream, I think. My sims and I were all participating in a contest to see who could do the best job with fixing up a house for resell. Everyone partnered up, but I was alone. Boo hoo. I happened upon a great little house, and, with only the floorplan to look at, redesigned it into a house that would sell for about $40,000 more. Everyone else was still involved in actually finding good candidates to work on, and here I was with the plans all laid out. My sim, Bradley, was partnered with one of my real-life childhood friends. She was not able to even find a house to work on, so I pulled Bradley aside and told him that, not trying to cause trouble, here, but I have a house, I already did the plans, but I have no partner. Bradley thanked me and joined my team. Meanwhile, my childhood friend hurriedly constructed a house out of a Ritz cracker box. It was actually quite impressive, but I had to stop one of my little kid sims, Tiffany, from running up the cardboard stairs. Might get hurt when they collapse, you know.
While the others worked, my house was done. All I had to do was knock out a few walls, and voila! Instant money-maker. Bradley and I then went out for a boat ride, which turned into a hot steamy affair,of course.

Had to share that. I apologize. Back to the original topic, now. Oh, wait. "TS2 dreams" was the original topic.

I don't often dream about TS2.  I did last night, however.

And without further adeiu, let the invasions begin!

[Brynne]

Hmmm...did I just "invade"?
Now I'm embarrassed.

LK, as if we don't know that you always check if you have a bladder failure, clicking on yourself.... Be honest - admit it!....

By the way, I was kidding.

Personally, I don't find this topic strange in the slightest, because for years I've found myself dreaming about whatever game I've been playing at the time. It's not so bad when it's something like The Sims/TS2/Pokemon that actually has a storyline... but it's plain odd to close your eyes and have Tetris pieces falling from the sky, or Dance Dance Revolution step patterns. Plus, Dance Dance Revolution dreams are entirely too active. They make me wake up tangled in the sheets...

I'm really looking forward to a new Playstation 2 game called Okami that I've seen previewed - you are a (female) wolf who runs around doing normal wolfy things, but she can also do calligraphy with her tail. Now that is the sort of thing I dream about normally . Be interesting to find out what it does to my dreams...

  That's how I woke up this afternoon after my little sim-affair...

that's a very handy thing! No pun intended. So what is the point of the game, other than being a wolverine with purdy hand writing?

[ZephyrZodiac]

I can definitely relate to the Tetris thing!

[ElviraGoth]

Me too!  (Tetris)  I always have dreams about whatever I've been doing that my mind might have been trying to work something out on.  It's like my sleep hours are when my brain goes into "solve" mode.  When I'm programming, I dream about code.  Crossword puzzles do it, too.  And since I started playing TS2, I've has some weird ones.  I switched from Civ3 to TS1 about a year ago, and I had some strange combinations of the two games in my dreams.

Glad I'm not the only one who dreams about games!

Aggh...me too..and I hate it b/c it's like damn you brain, now is not the time lol

It's funny to run across this thread...the other night I had a sims like dream.  In my dream I concluded that some things must be going wrong for me b/c I have "conflicting  hacks"  lol  Isn't that just a the perfect metaphor for life sometimes.

[bluecatvon]

haha! my dreams have sims elements in it too! I dreamt that my favorite sim came to my rescue..oh when i hugged him, it was so warm..my friends avoided me that day for fear i ate the wrong medicine, with that stupid grin on my face the whole while..

and what's more, i think bout sims every minute. even when i'm sitting on the sofa watching my family members walk by, with that kind of head movement you see in the game.

and loads, loads more..

oh that fav sim i was talking bout, check out my avatar  i love men with ponytails..

[Renatus]

I don't remember ever dreaming about TS2 (although I often fall asleep thinking about plans for my current batch of sims) - I think all of my sleeping mental cycles are taken up by language class stress, as I always seem to be dreaming about trying to remember how to say something in Finnish. I have however taken to saying things like "Hm, I seem to have spun up a want to have cereal!" before skipping off to pour myself some.

That is really funny!

And how many of us dream about a great woohoo?   (in a hot-tub, of course!)

[gali]

Wow, ZZ! Did you become a priest, and ask for confessions?

Then this will turn out to be a Public Woohoo....

[SciBirg]

Just after TS2 was out I saw a guy in the cafeteria who had a... "protruding abdomen" and before I could stop myself I was thinking: "Hmm... he must have been abducted."

 

[ZephyrZodiac]

Well, it would certainly give men something to ponder on!

And Gali - of course I'm not offended!!!!
