We are moving to Issaquah

We are moving from Redmond ( the north end of Lake Sammamish) to Issaquah (the south end of Lake Sammamish).
For me, Redmond is like my 2nd home in the US (the first one is of course East Lansing, MI), and since Eddie has been living here for 2 years, it feels like I've been living here for years too. Plus we had some friends here (difficult to make good friends in the US), and we will be far away from our friends, and I don't know if they are willing to drive all the way to Issaquah to visit us in our little townhouse. BUT, if anyone of you visiting us, WE HAVE A GUEST BATHROOM FOR YOU!
and the guest bedroom, honestly, you might have to share it with our two PCs.

And 2005 begins...

My 2005 begins with Sims2, have been playing that for like 18hrs a day. Very addicted you can tell.
Eddie had this jetlag after he got back from Beijing and chatted with friends online every night, and the coming of Xmas and New Year only made it worse, since we have not much to do in the cold/rainy weather. Therefore we slept most of the days and were energetic during the night. I didn't have jetlag (since i stayed in TX, not the other side of the globe), but Eddie gradually changed my lifestyle by talking/walking/playing computer during my sleep.
So it ended up a day like today, I woke up at around noon and had a little breakfast, while he's still sleeping. I am not sure how long will he sleep, therefore, I will just start to Sims2.

Sims2 is definitely one of the best games I've tried. I got the chance to build houses, build people, do decoration and so on. this doesn't sound passionate, but it is the very true reason why i am so into this game.

Another thing I learned from Sims2 is, it's very difficult to carry on your career and taking care of kids at the same time, for example I have this girl marrying a guy and had a baby, she had a very successful career, but ever after she gave birth to the baby, her energy level has been "red alert" and I barely found time to let her have enough sleep or to study. Gosh what a waste for woman who has a successful career!

I know some people in reality are so willing to devote their life/time to children, and maybe one day I will have same idea as they are. But not for now.
