Monday (Progress Report)

I added a new thing today: basically, once you get to a certain point in a pregnancy, you have the option to call your doctor's office to decide how you want to give birth. There's three main options: hospital, doctor's office, and at home, and each of those options has three variations.

The main concerns when it comes to giving birth are three factors: health effect, recovery time, and baby happiness. The choices you make will affect those three factors. Generally, the shorter your recovery time, the more detrimental the effect on your health and baby happiness. The more you spend, the better the effects in general. If you don't have enough money, then you can always choose the hospital option (with no variation), and it will take all of your money instead.

The other thing I had a thought about today was a laundry system, or rather a system for getting your clothes dirty. At first, I didn't really want to do that, because it seemed like busywork for the sake of busywork. But then I realized that there's a way to do it that opens up new opportunities.

Still working on the details, but the basic idea is that every day you wear a particular outfit, it gets a little dirtier and wrinkled, adding a non-natural charisma penalty. To get rid of it, you have to do laundry. It doesn't take long to do, but the problem is that your apartment doesn't have a laundry cleaning machine, so you have to go to a laundromat. Hey look, chance for new encounters! Whee!

Also, what if you don't WANT to go to the laundromat? Maybe there's an apartment that has a washer/dryer hook-up that you can move to? Hmm...

    1. Er, hey...
      Any chance you could collect all of your reports into *one* post instead of just spamming comments?

    1. Addendum...I bought two notebooks before using one up. Examining the notebook now reports, "A simple, spiral-bound notebook. You can write whatever you'd like in here. It has 70 pages.

      There are -2 blank pages left."

      On an unrelated note--I'm a touch-typist and find it most difficult to keep from putting two spaces after a full stop. On an even more unrelated note (less related?)--I'm a fan of the Oxford comma, and I see that you are not.

    2. Okay, I went back and bought another notebook to find that I can write in my diary again. Next I'll buy more painting supplies (despite currently having enough for 15 days) to see whether that will allow me to paint again.

      On an unrelated note--I find I keep replying to myself, but that's only because the voices keep telling me to.

    3. Didn't work. On the plus side...I now have painting supplies for 20 sessions.

  3. Would we potentially be able to buy more than one version of each outfit when the laundry system is implemented, so that we can wear set outfits on consecutive days without the charisma penalty?

  7. "Maybe there's an apartment that has a washer/dryer hook-up that you can move to? Hmm..."

    I really like that idea. So far, only 2 possibilities : Genevieve and Britney - unless you add a new NPC, of course.

  9. Right, think about the possibility of waking up realizing that you don't have a clean panties to wear to work. Surely can awaken the inner exhibitionist in everyone's heart.

  10. I am bold enough among many others to state that there is now a potent cure to this sickness but many are unaware of it. I discovered that I was infected with the virus 3 months ago, after a medical check-up. My doctor told me and I was shocked, confused and felt like my world has crumbled. I was dying slowly due to the announcement of my medical practitioner but he assured me that I could leave a normal life if I took my medications (as there was no medically known cure to Herpes). I went from churches to churches but soon found that my case needed urgent attention as I was growing lean due to fear of dying anytime soon. In a bid to look for a lasting solution to my predicament, I sought for solutions from the herbal world. I went online and searched for every powerful trado-medical practitioner that I could severe, cos I heard that the African Herbs had a cure to the Herpes syndrome. It was after a little time searching the web that I came across one Dr Itua(A powerful African Herbal Doctor), who offered to help me at a monetary fee. I had to comply as this was my final bus-stop to receiving a perfect healing. My last resolve was to take my life by myself, should this plan fail. At last it worked out well. He gave me some steps to follow and I meticulously carried out all his instructions. Last month, to be precise, I went back to the hospital to conduct another test and to my amazement, the results showed that negative,Dr Itua Can As Well Cure The Following Desease…Cancer,Hiv,Herpes, Hepatitis B,Liver Inflammatory,Diabetis,Fribroid,,Non Hodgkin Lymphoma,Skin Cancer,Uterine Cancer,Prostate Cancer Dercum,Infertility,fibromyalgia,Get Your Ex Back,Als,SYPHILLIS,Genetic disease,Epilepsy, Parkinson's disease..You can free yourself of this Herpes virus by consulting this great African Herbal Doctor via this e-mail: drituaherbalcenter@gmail.com or call and whatsapp him on +2348149277967 He will help you and his herb medication is sure. he has the cure on all disease .You can talk to me on INSTAGRAM..tashamoore219....

  11. I was diagnosed as HEPATITIS B carrier in 2013 with fibrosis of the
    liver already present. I started on antiviral medications which
    reduced the viral load initially. After a couple of years the virus
    became resistant. I started on HEPATITIS B Herbal treatment from
    ULTIMATE LIFE CLINIC (www.ultimatelifeclinic.com) in March, 2020. Their
    treatment totally reversed the virus. I did another blood test after
    the 6 months long treatment and tested negative to the virus. Amazing
    treatment! This treatment is a breakthrough for all HBV carriers.
