It's A Shmoe Life

Murder~Death~Kill

2009-03-02T02:50:24Z

It is with a concerned mind, I come to you tonight. You see, something strange has happened here in my town of Dumas. Something very bizarre. This is nothing to do with the family, this has to do with others. Here, read the story I found on a local news site.

Trouble in Bluewater??

As the local townpeople met at the Tinker Residence, something went afowl. No eyewitnesses have come forward to provide much details about the meeting. Almost all who attended the meeting, have met their untimely death. You see it was the time of the year to pick out "Yard of the Month" when a strange fire broke out at the residence. Was it caused by arson? No one knows. What happened to the fire alarm that Wanda Tinker picked out from the hardware store? How did it vanish? See the below pictures captured by a nearby passerby, who is remaining nameless, but has been cleared of the crime.

The police have noticed a pink package that appeared on the front porch before the fire. Who dropped off the package? Why hasn't that person spoken to authorities? What did that person see?

The man seen here is Checo Ramirez, he somehow survived the fire. He ranted about a large blue rabbit that only he could see. Soon after this picture was taken by detectives, Mr. Ramirez passed away on the sidewalk where he is seen about. The girls seen here have also vanished, but are believed to have disappeared in with regular citizens of Dumas.

You think this is bad? There were two other survivers of the fire. They are Malcolm Landgrab and Ms. Delarosa, the local florist.

Calming each other's fears about what they saw, they went to eat supper together. When the worst possible thing occured, a fire broke out here in Mr. Landgrab's state of the art kitchen.

Sadly, both perished in the kitchen. Any witnesses, please come forward to tell the police what you saw. PLEASE before this happens to YOU!!

If this would not be enough for you, here is another article from another later day. My girls want to go to this college! Will they be safe? How can I protect them there?

Trouble at the local University?

Recognize these young adults? Information is being sought in the identification of any young adults pictured above. They went off to the Local University to check everything out. All was fine and dandy at first.

Suspect #1 and #2 are being sought for questioning. They somehow survived the house of horrors, but disappeared into the regular citizens of the college land. Any sighting of them, please waste no time and contact the police with the details.

Cameras found on the ground nearby the house showed an awful tale of broken promises. They two look like they were outside nicely daydreaming....

The next picture on the roll shows a satelite where the sim was laying down. What would make someone force another to die in this fashion?

Another picture on the roll shows an actual point of impact hit on another person. What is going on? Authorities are puzzled.

Was this a house of drugs? Why are these two just starving to death when you can see the refrigerator in the background? Why wouldn't they just go get some Jello??

Was alcohol a factor at this house? Tests have come back but that can not be determined.

Sadly, all who shown in this room, are no longer amoung the living.

They have been seen since their death, scaring other innocents into joining them in the afterlife. Please please please stay away from 9922 Death Row until authorities figure out what is causing these mysterious deaths.

The only note found on the house is shown here. What does this mean???

Confusion Cleared

2009-02-22T23:55:17Z

Did you know there are more new people moving in here everyday? Yep, just the other day Daisy went with me to meet my Goddess Ruby. Yes, I got to meet Ruby. All was better than expected, in a strange way. I have grown quiet attached to my Daisy and did not want to think about losing her. Even if it was for Ruby.

Here is Ruby meeting my Daisy. So far, so good huh? These two are actually best of friends now.

As you can see here, with my Goddess playing red-hands with this guy. I was happier with my wife. I don't think Ruby thought too highly of me at all.

Being around her house for the day, we took advantage of her hot tub. As Daisy noticed, all my attention was on her. My thoughts for Ruby are still great ones, but there was no real attraction there once I saw her again. Maybe in my family's future she will find her place.

Being my little angel of a daughter, Pansy is off studying hard to keep up her grades. One couldn't ask for a better daughter.

Here is little Lilly. She is nothing like her sister. They are quite opposites really. Where Pansy was easy going, Lilly is a handful. Lilly is Lilly though.

One of the new comers ventured past today. Her name is Oydie. We talked for awhile. I couldn't help but notice how she talked about a scrapbook she has going on.

Our garden is really starting to produce for us. Soon we will only serve the best food. You remember why also, we are Shmoe's and we deserve the best.

My daughters playing nicely together. This makes it all worthwhile.

Where did my daughter get this nose? It can't be from Daisy or myself. The nose just seems out of place on her.

Lilly has grown into a fine child. Nothing like her sister, but what siblings are identical?

I have been told by the voice that knows all that you readers know who this sim is. Any guesses?

A Shmoe by any other name

2009-02-22T22:36:22Z

Just a picture of my growing family. Daisy & I with our daughters Pansy & Lilly. Being a Shmoe in this town is good thing. Let me show you why.

I must be a celebrity or something in this town. People are always wanting to meet me and are more than willing to do as I ask. So I must be important.

See how this guy went and started an fight with the friendly bartender? Why would he do that? Because I am a Shmoe and I asked him to!

An others are willing to attack the same bartender for the no reason at all! Oh the power I hold! I wonder what other powers I have?

These locals almost jumped through their skins to sit at this table with me. Why? Because I am a SHMOE!

To future test this ability, Daisy joined me out one night. She didn't believe me and called me crazy when I told her of this power. So when she met this Count guy she tried it out.

Sure enough, he went right to this Long fellow and bite his neck! Why would he do it? Because Daisy is a Shmoe!

Pansy sure took the PC quickly. She already has friends, but they don't email much. I tried to explain net safety, but she doesn't take it too seriously yet. We have decided to get her into a nice school since Shmoe's should get the best education. Why? Because she is a Shmoe, that's why.

A fully rounded education includes the outdoors. Hopefully she will get the nice badge I have. She deserves it, if only because she is a Shmoe.

Of course Pansy is now in private school. Did you really think the school would turn us down? Oh no, we are the Shmoe family and we deserve it.

Daisy spends her free time learning a new career path. She loves to cut hair and has given quite a few hair cuts out.

Granted, some of her clients just end up staying around too long. Between fishing with Pansy or befriending Lilly, they are here for hours on end. We tend to forget to feed them, but that's just fine. They don't blame us, they are honored to be at the Shmoe house!

Now granted, this Keth woman was here again today. When offered a hair cut, she wasn't willing at all. Maybe we should show her those blinking items on her head and she will accept next time.

And the years start rolling past

2009-02-22T21:46:51Z

Daisy sure was worn out after our honeymoon. I hope it is nothing too serious.

I couldn't believe it those I found this book. It was stuffed behind the bookcase. It tells about the life of Joe Schmoe, which is my name. His wife looks just like my Daisy but her name is Samantha. I know my Daisy wouldn't mess around on me. We are like two warped peas in a pod.

We have been slowly but surely expanding on the house. It was a nice size, but we just seem to need more room.

A few months after our return from our honeymoon, I am proud to announce the miracle of Pansy. A beautiful healthy daughter, what else could a man want?

Must hurry! I need your skills! I've been pregnant and didn't have time to study for my promotion. GIMME GIMME GIMME!!

Before I knew it, Pansy was growing into a toddler.

Want a baby, want a baby, want a baby for Joe...
If I give Joe another baby, he won't think of Ruby no mo...

Sadly, there were no real toddler picture of Pansy to show you. Plus this way you can see how excited Daisy was about a toddler table I put together. It wasn't that hard to do.

Here I am teaching Pansy some nursey rhyme.

What are little girls made of? Sugar and spice
and everything nice, that's what little girls are made of....

I can't leave you with out showing you one last thing. Here is our daughter Lilly. I am finding it is harder to write in my journal with two daughters.

A Trip To Remember

2009-02-21T23:49:52Z

Previous Entry

Last night my bed was been too cold, I really need Daisy here to help warm it up. Not being sure of how she will take my lack of a home, I rushed her to the arch. I hope she didn't get a good look around.

Cha-ching! I never thought to ask her about her funds. At least with this we can start building the home I've told her about.

As you can see here, my house is nothing to write home about. There is just one wall where the so-called bathroom is, so much for being a shy person at this house. No privacy allowed here. The bookcase and refrigerator are just out in the open, waiting for you to steal. I hope Daisy isn't too mad, what I have described to her and what is actually here were two different things. Come to think about it, I think I need a better bed. I've been sleeping in a hammock tied up to the trees, just out of sight here in this picture.

This just can't be good. What can go wrong, went wrong! In the middle of out wedding party, it started to snow. SNOW!! I just don't understand it. The voice who guides me said I couldn't build the house until the guests are gone. Why not? I along with my guests are freezing in our FORMAL wear.

I am frozen. What was I thinking? I mean, he told me so much about his house. We took pictures to put on the wall. Where is this house? Where are the walls? Who is this Ruby person he thinks I remind him of? That will change, once I warm up!

Daisy was sure happier once the builders showed up and put up the walls and roof. I couldn't believe they show up late at night and handled it all in a timely manner.

A few hours later, Daisy returned from her trip to town and was I shocked. Everything changed about her. Who was this woman I married?

Honeymoon time.

Firstly we stayed at a local campgrounds. I never would have thought Daisy would go for that, but it was her idea.

We spent much time fishing with the locals. And when I say we spent much time, I mean we were out there day and night fishing.

I even won a local fishing competition with this fish.

When we weren't fishing we relaxed in a local suana. I can say I really got relaxed in that room a few times.

There were nights of relaxing in the hot spring.

Before the end of our trip, we decided to go to a local hotel. The campground can be hard on you after a few nights.

I must admit, it was nice to have a nice peaceful dinner.

Before I knew it, it was time to return home. I see the builders are finished and we at least have a home to stay in now.

Dumas?

2009-02-16T03:55:31Z

Ever hear of Dumas, Texas? Yeah, me neither. It is a small town in the panhandle of Texas. That is where I found myself. Dumas...with it's huge population of 13,747.

This is me, Joe Shmoe. I was dropped off here by accident, I am sure of that. I was not meant for this small town. I know I should have been a larger city. I can recall being in a larger city once. I was there with my Goddess, Ruby. Then the next thing I know, I was plunged into darkness and when I could see again, I was in Dumas.

I spent many hours daydreaming about my Ruby. Her wonderful curly brown hair. Her sparkling brown eyes. Her laugh while she created me and my other brother. He was different from me, but that was ok. We were brothers, I wonder if he is somewhere around here also.

This is my lovely land that my house will be built on, so I am told by the new voice I hear. Right now it tells me to "find a girlfriend Joe, we need to catch up". Catch up? Catch up with what or who I ask. All I am told is to "catch up with the other Joes". Other Joes? I can't believe my Goddess Ruby would have shared me like that. So I agree to go off in search of a girlfriend.

I met this nice young lady, but she wasn't thinking of me. She must have had more important things on her mind. That voice told me "she is looking for her Cleve". Who is this Cleve and why isn't she interested in me?

I have enjoyed the Dumas mini-mall. I can come here for some exercise and refreshment. This town is so small though. The main items around town close so early in the evening, I thought they would be some sort of nightlife, but alas there is none yet. The locals go somewhere at night, but they have yet to tell me where.

After a week or so, I overheard discussion about a downtown area. It was there I met this nice young lady, her name is Keth. She was really nice, but alas she is not meant to be mine either.

Keth was making burnt hot dogs for this sim, Orin. Orin was nice enough to eat them, but I just couldn't bring myself to do it. I have noticed that Keth seems to show up when Orin does. It is almost like she stalks him or something.

Here are my potential friends. If my eyes don't deceive me, there is a lady who resembles my Ruby on the top row. Her name is Daisy, Daisy Hunicke. I think I shall ask her out on a date.

Daisy and I spent a few dates together at the bowling alley. While she looks like Ruby, she isn't her. After some questioning, I found she wasn't my Ruby. She does have a great laugh though, reminds me of Ruby.

Just a momento to go on my (future) walls in the house. I have not told Daisy of my land yet. I hope she doesn't mind the lack of a house. Times are tough and I had to start with $5,000.

When I am around Daisy, all she seems to do is stay by me. I think she is interested in my handsome self. I am starting to give up on my search for Ruby, but part of me wonders where she is and what she is doing.

Daisy and I are spending more time together. I think I have found someone who has grabbed my heart. She tends to get upset when I tell her how she reminds me of Ruby or when I even mention Ruby's name. Why is that?

Daisy seems to really have taken to me. She is always willing to go out and I think she hopes this is something more serious. I, on the other hand, still wonder if I can find my Goddess here or not.

Who would have thunk it? I mention to Daisy that we need another picture for my walls and well, one thing led to another and that nasty old lady was hitting me with her purse! The old prude!

Not wanting someone else to take Daisy, I asked her to marry me. I figure if I can't find Ruby, she is the next best thing. Daisy seems to think Ruby is out of my head now, but she isn't. I now must quietly search for her until I find her.

Times sure are tough living on the yard. Winter has arrived and my house is nowhere near done. Not even close. I found myself freezing and decided the spring wedding must be moved up. I need a warm body to share the nights with.
