I feel sorry for Barbara. Poor woman, she must dread going home, knowing he'll be there, and will just annoy the living daylights out of her.

I seldom make any real changes to Sims screencaps other than for cosmetic reasons so what you see is what actually happened during play, but the Spam smilie worked so well and had me giggling so hard I had to add it.
Barbara's home all day but yeah, she doesn't really look forward to Cheese coming home from school. Neither he nor Louise have brought any classmates home yet but eventually they will, and for Barbara's sake I hope Goo isn't one of them.

Still trying to hunt up a better outfit for you; you're remarkably difficult to dress for some reason. Not to worry, though, I'll find something soon.
In a place so very close yet so very far from Foster's Valley, the Simmaster opened a thing he called the Package Editor. The Package Editor, known as SimPE by many, was a tool more powerful than all the others in the Simmaster's vast arsenal, and indeed it was SimPE that made many of those other tools possible. Created by the great genius Quaxi in a faraway place known as Germany, SimPE could do what few other tools could do; it had the power to destroy memory holes and remove corruption from individual Sims. One by one the Simmaster began examining the memories of each of his Sims, and the memories of each lot and the neighborhood as a whole for these, too, had memories of their own. Holes were found; holes were patched. But it was a herculean task and eventually the Simmaster grew tired from the work, and decided to continue it on another day. As he closed down SimPE, in his exhaustion he inadvertently clicked a button that he should not have, and a change was made to one house in the Valley, a change he did not want. The Simmaster beheld the error, assessed the unwanted change, and spoke aloud:
"Oops."
Foster's Valley - When the calendar breaks
Early Thursday morning, Linestra, still full from the previous night's dinner, tops off with a snack while in the background xxxClaire amuses herself by juggling water bottles:
It's the start of an ordinary day, meaning there's about two hours to kill before the bus arrives, more than enough time to do a little primping before class:
When xxxClaire or any other Sim does this it's cute; when Gabe does it it's obnoxious. The sun rose minutes later, giving Sparky a good view of the garbage can as she took out the trash:
She also got a good view of the trees and was astonished to see that they were green. Doesn't sound like a big deal except it's the middle of autumn. It's warm out, too, like it is in late summer. The morning newspaper hasn't arrived, either. She knows something's not right but isn't sure what. Imaginary Light, on the other hand, is very sure that she wants to earn a little money and boost her creativity, both of which can be done with the easel. So she begins a painting, hoping to get as much done as she can before the bus arrives:
But the schoolbus never showed up. Another anomaly, albeit one that nobody's complaining about too much. 10:00 AM arrived, and it being Thursday, the tax bill is due to arrive. The mailman didn't come. Something is seriously wrong. Not that Linestra and Lynnie care; seen here, Linestra studies the way of the mop and the sponge, on her way to a point of Cleaning skill, while Lynnie enjoys a good laugh at what's on TV:
It's the Hollywood gossip report; seems that Jimmy Montero got a bad sunburn while sunbathing the other day. Rumor has it that he was nude. Ow. The anomalies are piling up and Sparky has a hunch; she goes to check it on her computer but first has to deal with x_dummkoff_x:
She has reasoned that since the mailman didn't arrive and there was no tax bill that means there's extra money in the household budget so can she get this necklace that's on sale at the mall
pleasepleasepleasepleaseplease !?!? Sparky rolled her eyes, pointed at the door, and told x_dummkoff_x to pick up groceries while she's out. Off she went. xxxClaire, who's been on the swings, reentered the house and passed by Linestra, who had just gained that point of Cleaning skill and a thousand Aspiration points to boot:
xxxClaire: "No school today! How cool is that?"
Linestra: "Totally cool!"
Lynnie: "Ugh! Jimmy, put your pants on! What's wrong with you!?!?"
Sparky in the meantime made it to her computer and checked her hunch. It's summer when it should be autumn, the schoolbus never arrived, there's no mail and no newspaper. And in the lower right hand corner of her monitor is the final piece of the puzzle. It's supposed to be Thursday, but it's not. The calendar says it's Monday. Somehow, time in the
Never Forgotten house has been reset back to the beginning. And she realizes that there is an inevitable consequence to a reset like this.
The Welcome Wagon is coming back.
