Thank you everyone for your kind comments.  And actually, it's ok to laugh.  I've been having an interesting time getting this file finally up off the grounds.  Unfortunately, I'm still in the planning stages but I missed Artie so much I started his file without thinking everything out.  I have ideas of what I want for him but I'm also going to let him decide what he wants, too.

It feels like someone should be playing ominous music on a piano after that last statement Rica! Dun, Dun, Dun! I can't wait for more updates, and of course I want to see his house.  :D

Mr Bigglesworth: "I think this should be Artie's property.  It seriously needs help."
Rica: "Artie's property is Artie's choice.  I do agree though.   At least the food bowl is full."
Mr Bigglesworth: "There is that and we don't have to pay to refill it."
Rica: "Exactly.  Maybe you'll meet someone that Artie can marry."


Dawn Sommers: "Welcome to Graham's Pet Swap Shop.  How can I help you today?"
Artie: "Hi.  I've inherited a cat and I've never really had an animal before.  What should I get to keep him from being taken away?"
Dawn Sommers: "You've come to the right place.  Let me show your our list for cats."
Rica: "Why isn't there a litter box on there?"
Artie: "I don't know. Do I need one?"
Dawn Sommers: "Need a what?"
Artie: "A litter box."
Dawn Sommers: "Oh. definitely, if it's an indoor animal."


Artie: "I just moved into town and I'm looking to meet new people.  My name is Artie Grim."
Dawn Sommers: "Wow.  I just moved here, too.  I'm Dawn Sommers.  They called me in just to work the pet shop here."
Artie: "Sommers.. Sommers. You mean like the people who own the modern mansion on the other side of the hill?"
Dawn: "That's right.  I just moved in this morning."
Artie: "What a coincidence.  Before I came over here, I took a moment to admire your home.  I think it's a real beauty."
Dawn: "If you think that's nice, you should see the car they gave me, too."
Artie: + +


Artie: "You're right.  This is an amazing car.  I've always been a Bwan Speedster fan myself."


Artie: "And all that was left was the reaper's scythe leaning against the tree.."
Dawn: -gasp- + +


Artie: "Dawn, I've had a great time tonight.  I was wondering if you were interested in having more great times on many nights ahead by moving in with me."
Dawn: "I would love to!  I love the great outdoors and seeing this big empty lot here fills me with such joy that I have to join your household and get out of the Pet Store business."
Artie: "Hey hey now.  I'm just asking for a roommate.  I don't think I can handle a relationship right now."
Dawn: "Let's cuddle under the stars and you can tell me all about it."
Artie: "Umm.. Ok.  Welcome to the house."

Rica: "Ta-da!"
Artie: "Oh thank Rica.  A toilet."
Mr Bigglesworth: "A bed!  You got me a bed!"
Dawn: "Um what is all this? And who are the new voices?"
Artie: -flush- "The first one was Rica and the second one is the white fluffball."
Mr Bigglesworth: "Who you calling a fluffball?"
Dawn: "Who or what is a Rica?"
Rica: "I'm a better friend than Artie ever will be.  I take care of your basic needs.  Hence the sudden appearance of a bed,toilet and a fridge."
Artie: "Where is the house?"
Rica: "I'm too tired to build and it's dark.  I'll think about it in the morning."
Artie: "Fine!"
Mr Bigglesworth: -cat giggles- "It's a catnip mouse."
Dawn: "I think we've all had a long night.  Let's go to sleep."
Artie: "Yeah we should do that.  I have work in 6 hours."


Rica: "Good Morning Dawn. Sleep well?"
Dawn: "Yes and it's a bright new day.  Maybe today I'll meet the one."
Rica: "The one what?"
Dawn: "The one that will make my heart skip a beat."
Rica: "So you have no intentions to shackle Artie?"
Dawn: "Oh of course not.  I like my men tall dark and handsome, not crazy average and the color of tomatoes."
Rica: "Wow.  Ok.  We'll see. How do you feel about painting?"
Dawn: "I love painting! I want to take a class in painting."
Rica: "Alright then.  Head down to the school and take a class then you might want to hit the gym to get rid of the fleas and maybe use the mirror for a hairstyle that suits you better."
Dawn: "That sounds like a great idea.  Maybe new clothes, too."


Artie: "You got fleas on purpose didn't you?"
Mr Bigglesworth: "Not exactly on purpose but I did give them to you on purpose."
Artie: "Yeah and my carpool will be here any minute now.  Don't you dare think this is over, either."
Mr Bigglesworth: "Oh no no no.  Of course not.  This is going to be a lifelong adventure, no doubt."
Artie: "Hmph."


Rica: -sniffle-  "How do you like it?"
Dawn: "Oh Rica.  I love it but why are you crying?"
Rica: "Oh I'm not anymore.  You just remind me of Josephine that's all.  You even like the color white like her."
Dawn: "Well cheer up now.  I'm going to go to the art museum."


Rica: "Hey you found an easel."
Dawn: "As soon as I saw it, I knew I needed to paint so I am."
Rica: "Have fun..  Maybe someone special will walk in the door, too."
Dawn: "Wouldn't that be perfect?"


Mr Bigglesworth: "A-ha! I got you! Ohh silly catnip mouse."


Dawn: "Oh Rica.. look what I found."
Rica: "Very nice. It's a macaw right?"
Dawn: "Yes a Catalina Macaw.  Can I get a bird cage and keep it?"
Rica: "Sure but aren't you worried about Mr Bigglesworth?"
Dawn: "I wouldn't if I had a room to put it in."
Rica: "Ok Fine! I'll go work on getting us a house."

With the help of Artie and Mr Bigglesworth, I present...

The Mad Hatters Cottage

Warning: Some of the images below may be too much for some individuals.  If they are, I'm sorry in advance but at least I'm warning you!


Front yard from the street to the house


Closeup of the front of the house


New mailbox and trashcan decoration


First floor:  The building is a work in progress I'm still trying to decide what to do with all the space now.  No floor plan like the first time.


Entryway; complete with cat litter box!


This is the space to the left upon entering.  It currently holds the cat condo and the computer desk for now.  Please excuse us that this is a work in progress.


Living room like space complete with fireplace.


Hallway to the bedrooms and kitchen


Bathroom to be shared for now


Out of respect for Dawn: I made sure the boys got nowhere near her room so it's semi normal.


Artie and Mr Bigglesworth's Room: They're sharing sleeping quarters for now. 



We've got cupcakes!


My favorite picture:  the nighttime shot.

I posted it in the post where Dawn joined the house.  She brought in a little over 126,000 simoleons.

Thanks RicaLynn, Lmbo, I'm choking on my tea. I love the house, but I do have to ask? What in the world did poor Artie do? Has he seen the house yet? I love it. I love how all you girls write on this forum. ;D

I love that house! My decoration tends towards function over form, so hopefully I can learn something here. :)

Haha, I loved Artie's boss! I also love Mr. Bigglesworth.
And what an amazing house! It reminds me of Alice in Wonderland. You did such a great job.

Wow Rica! That house is just so fantastic! Welcome Dawn! I think you'll be happy that you won't be spending many lifetimes with Artie! Artie's little furry friend is just the cutest!
