The Sims have taken over our house

Last month I was down in San Diego for awhile and while Sniper and I were out shopping, we picked up the latest version of Sims Deluxe for me. It's a computer game where you get build a city, infrastructure and all, and then play mayor. A week goes by and I am back home. I decided I need to get lost in nothing for a while, so I install the game on my computer. Several hours later, I remember why I hadn't played in over a year and had hid the game from myself. I was/am extremely addicted to this damn thing. To the point, Sniper has called me at 0300 and the first thing out of his mouth, "Stop playing with the Sims and go to bed." Yes, I will play until 0300 or 0400 and won't bat an eye. Even if I have to be up at 0500 to go to work. A few days go by and Lego Man comes in and starts getting all excited when he sees what I was playing. Oh Shit....now he wants to play. I let him know while I am at work during the day, he can have the computer. He also remembers there is cheat codes (yes I do cheat) that you can use to make a better city. The last two weeks, Lego Man has called me about every 30 minutes at work asking me how to build something or what the cheat code is. The first few times it was funny, but a few weeks into it and I am getting a little irrated. At night, I come home and Lego Man won't give up my computer, he wants to play. Now we are fighting for Sims time..... Well, Sniper is home for the week and decided he wanted to play yesterday. A few hours into it, yes you guessed it, he calls me at work to ask how to do something and for the cheat codes. After I got off the phone, I laughed my ass off. I get home last night, only to find Sniper sitting in front of the computer and playing Sims. As I watched him for several hours play this damn game he kept up with all the questions of how to do something. I think I created a bunch of SIMS monsters and my house is now being overrun....The only catch, I WANT MY SIMS TIME TOO!!!! dyzgoneby
