I'm known to be something of a sesquipedalian raconteur, after all.

I thought Sim-Celt was laughing in your face in Dei's game? Weird methods of seduction she's using.
She liked him a lot more after he was dead.
I don't actually know if Sim-Celt would get jealous though, since you aren't in a relationship, you just randomly come over and woohoo at 2am.

Like Dei said, all I had to do was literally die to get you to notice me
Now you come over at odd hours to use me to satisfy your base desires, and occasionally clean the place up (because your Neat trait makes you see cleaning as a source of fun). 
I've definitely noticed that sims get jealous of their romantic interests flirting with other sims, even if they aren't officially in a relationship.
No one is going to live that long.

Nope. At least not from ghost/sim or ghost/ghost copulation, anyway. And they'd still take up a household slot that isn't empty at the moment.
I'm honestly surprised more people haven't died falling asleep in the hot tub.
My Sim is living a far more interesting life than me.Like Dei said, all I had to do was literally die to get you to notice me
The cleaning sounds right, tho'.

I think that's a recurring observation with most of us, heh.
Hot tubs are scary.
4 to 1 odds that I'm in the next urn.

That potion of youth you earned via your bodybuilding successes ought to keep the reaper at bay for a couple more weeks at least, I think.
That's why 4 to 1 odds. I'm also not sure who else is elderly.
I am elderly. Pour one out for me, bro.
I'll take that. I suspect my number's coming up.
I just realized that bringing your partner back from the dead pretty gives them unlimited leverage in a relationship. "Can't I just take the garbage out in the morning?" "Do you think me pleading with the GRIM REAPER HIMSELF FOR YOUR LIFE could have waited until morning?" *sigh* "Be right back."

Monday, 2nd of Winter, Year 2 - Household 2
She's a one-woman wrecking crew.
She's a one-woman wrecking crew.
Well, whoever had bet on Patrthom next in the pool, collect your winnings.
Emrys makes an offering at Pudding's urn, to try to remind him where home is.
The jukebox is on the fritz. With Patrthom gone, it falls to HCGLNS to fix it.
Dirona was Patrthom's closest friend in the household, so she makes the appeal to ground his spirit in the material world.
Some kind of bug has struck Adam where the game thinks he's at work when he's still at home. I hope this fixes itself.
Squidley misses her cat.
MikeRC finally manages to get enough trolling in to advance his mischievous aspirations. Next on the list is pranks - lots of pranks.
HCGLNS manifests a pair of roller skates and gives it a whirl. He's pretty good for never having done this before.
In a single visit to the restroom, Dirona manages to break both the toilet AND the sink.
She pretends nothing happens, and plays some vidya with Adam.
Painting usually cheers Squidley up... she's going to be doing a lot of that today, I think.
Scruffy, think of this as an opportunity to excel.
Adam gets enough charm practice in to get what he needs for a promotion. Hopefully.
MOAR VIDYA
Adam helps clean up the aftermath of whatever happened in the bathroom.
And he continues to act as Squidley's "manager" for her artwork, selling the fruits of her labors to collectors. Not only does she achieve the next level of her aspiration, but she's actually starting to get a little famous.
Her burgeoning fame will make it easier for her to network with other famous people.
That's kinda sweet.
HCGLNS, however, does not approve of Dirona and MikeRC's public displays of affection.
Dirona's been cooking to get her fourth level 4 skill. In the process, she breaks the refrigerator.
Sara has a cookout by herself at the nearby park, and doesn't look particularly like she's enjoying it.
Adam, despite not actually going to work today, "gets home" from work with a promotion to managerial assistant.
I think Dirona's been distracted during this cooking binge. Uh.. Dirona... maybe take another look at the oven there...?
Squidley saves the day, if not the oven.
Well, everybody's safe, at least.
HCGLNS and Adam get to work to set the kitchen to rights.
Her quick thinking in the emergency has instilled confidence in Squidley, and she puts that on canvas.
HCGLNS, on the other hand, takes a well deserved nap.
Dirona finally manages to get cooking to 4. Now she needs to get to level 3 in any career. Just because nobody's taken it yet, I opt for her to get into gardening.
It's a little cold to actually plant anything, but she can maybe do a little flower arranging?
Emrys see, Emrys do.
"Oh look, perfectly good hot dogs!" -Jwhouk
Bhamv, having heard of her friend's rising fame, drops by to visit Squidley.
They gossip for a bit about the neighbors.
Dirona decides to soak the stress of the fire away in the sauna.
MikeRC joins her... and things get a little steamier even.
They turn in early.
Emrys doesn't get on with strangers, and Bhamv's presence makes her on edge.
The next step of Adam's career requires logic, so he takes up chess.
He and Squidley are the only ones up this late...
Suddenly, a nearby guitar starts floating off the ground, spooking them.
Surprise! It's a puddy tat.
Welcome back to the household, kitty.
Man, she might be a bit of a walking disaster, but everybody digs Dirona's cookies. They're made with love.
... and also FOR love.

Hey, how'd you know what we had for dinner tonight?

Evidently.
DJ or cement work?

That was already in the works, the next phase of your mixologist aspiration requires you to get a job in the culinary industry, same as Snuffles did.
