Joshua Versus the Psycho Maid

It was just a matter of time.... truly.

Unlike his mother, Joshua didn't inherit the Hot Tempered trait and instead .... waited patiently until the opportune moment to strike.

That day was now upon us.

It was a Saturday, both parents were asleep in bed. Gareth because he'd finished his shift at HQ, Rhonda because she'd been up all night pacing and going to the bathroom every hour.

Alice was also having a lie-in, whilst Katie busied herself in the garden, picking out the prime fruits and vegetables that Gareth had so lovingly planted and maintained.




Picking at his measly breakfast of bread and jam, and silently seething at the fact that his favourite cereal was missing from the cupboards .... again .... Joshua then decided to go online and surf the 'net. He pounded the keys aggressively, his temper rising.




The door creaked open and in walked Timothy - psycho maid - bold as brass, giving the appearance that he owned the place. Joshua tried to ignore him, but he STILL hadn't forgiven this guy for stealing what should have been HIS birthday celebrations.




.... Timothy Selby.......... the object of Joshua's wrath and subsequent 'line of attack!'




Strengthening his resolve, he silently got up from the computer and watched the maid's movements. Then and only then did he decide to approach the guy, quickly and stealthily.




Tim was distracted momentarily, by the high pitched whine emanating from the dishwasher, so he didn't notice Joshua until he was standing right behind him.




He peered over his shoulder, both of them meeting each other - glare for glare.

'Don't even think about it kid,' Tim growled, his back stiffening, 'I've seen your type and I know exactly what you're going to do. Besides, I'm not in the mood.... o-kay?'

Joshua just stood there quietly, sizing this man up and down.




'I was just going to get some juice from the fridge,' Josh replied innocently, '.... if you don't mind.'

There was a pause, long enough for Timothy to take stock of Josh's intentions. Easing the tension from his shoulders.... he stepped aside.

'Fine then,' he snapped, 'but get a spurt on, I haven't got all day.... I've got work to do... cleaning up after you lot.'

Josh shrugged his shoulders and stepped forward.
Tim turned his back.

BIG mistake.

With arms akimbo, hands set into claw-like shapes and knees bent.....




... Joshua pounced.





Giving one hell of a rebel yell.... and scaring the pants of Timothy!!!!

'YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!'




Whilst Tim was still clutching his chest and gathering his breath, Joshua stood back, an evil grin on his face.




'There! That's what you get for ruining MY birthday party,' he declared, a warning tone in his voice, '.... and stealing food from OUR fridge..... So, I'd better watch out.... if I were you.'

Joshua definitely lived up to his Mean Spirited trait this time!!!!!!

Oh, revenge is a dish - best served .... cold!!!

****SIDE NOTE****

I just gotta love that 'Robin Hood' style outfit Joshua is wearing. It is too cuuuute. It was what he transitioned into and to begin with, I was too darned lazy to change him out of it. Besides, I think it is most becoming of him really.

Rhonda's Pregnancy Hormones Go Into Overdrive

So, it's after the Maid's 'Surprise Party', and he's trying to make amends for his previous actions (and ingratiating himself in with the family too).

Firstly he sits down with Katie and has a nice chat, along with a bowl of cereal this time.



They sit chatting about something and nothing in particular, whilst Rhonda, now blossoming quite well, wanders around the house, trying to keep her active mind occupied.



At first, when Timothy bends down to load the dirty dishes into the dishwasher, she finds herself checking out his butt...


Mmmm.... niiiiice.........


But after a while, that novelty soon wears off, as she finds him constantly in her way, wherever she goes.

Her bladder is constantly full, thanks to the baby, and she makes a mad dash to the nearest bathroom...

....only to find him there, scrubbing the toilet.



Exactly HOW long are you going to be? she asks irritably, tapping her foot.



Not too long, came the reply, just making sure it's perfect and pristine for you.

Humph!! Too long in my opinion, just hurry up will you? I need to pee.... badly!!!!

Ooh, someone's testy today!

Yeah, just bugger off will you? Before you meet Mr Fist - he's itching to make contact with someone's face!

He WASN'T amused at all.



His 'fine butt' wasn't such a delectable treat as she glared daggers at him for ...

a) being there

and

b) for taking his damned time about it!!!!

Not only that, he helped himself to a shower - breaking it in the meantime - and stood there calmly brushing his teeth ....

.... with RHONDA'S toothbrush!!!!!




Her patience is starting to wear thin on this guy.
But for the fact that she's pregnant, and her hormones are haywire to begin with....
.... I'm pretty sure she wouldn't hesitate to throw the maid out on his ear!!!!!!

Or his butt!!!!




Instead, she sighed heavily and called out maintenance, who arrived within the hour and fixed the broken shower.

Joshua, the Party Pooper

Time was ticking onwards in the Sim world, as we all know, and yes, there were some plans for another birthday bash.

This time, to make up for the lack of guests/organization - the last time, Rhonda and Gareth decided to throw Joshua his very first birthday party.

The guests were invited, the cake bought and paid for, the party time arranged, dress code all sorted, the venue fixed (at home in the back garden) ...

... it was just a matter of bringing the birthday boy to the cake, blowing a few tooters and making a racket with the assorted party favours.

And Joshua 'allowed' to blow out the candles.

And all would be well.

Sadly, for some unknown reason (a mad desire to see what would happen really), he didn't get to the cake in time.

And Timothy the Psycho Maid.....
.. beat him to it.




Well, with all the gusto they could manage (underneath the sheer horror of this guy taking over the party celebrations), all the guests and Joshua's family,




cheered as Tim blew out the candles and waited for the sparkles to herald the next stage of his life.....




.... as an adult....




Well, this REALLY put Joshua in a helluva mood, as he glared purposefully at Tim.

Slouching off, he realised his moment of glory had been stolen.

So, whilst he sat on his potty, wondering and plotting for all it's worth....
... he did the only thing he could.

Screamed the place down... with the biggest, loudest, most heartfelt tantrum ..



EVER.

Right in the middle of a packed room of guests, who all tutted and shook their heads at him.




Needless to say, he was soon shipped off to bed to cool down, whilst the party continued for a little while longer.

**PLEASE NOTE**
I discovered, when clicking onto the cake to set Joshua's birthday transition rolling.... that there was a list of other Sims all waiting for birthday transitions all the same time.

As long as that Sim is on your active Sims' lot, you can age them up!!!!

And sadly, because it took too long for Rhonda to find Joshua and take him to the cake to blow out the candles.... the next thing on the action list.... ..... was Timothy's birthday instead.

Joshua DID have a screaming session, only because he was tired and grumpy. But what a way to upstage Tim's birthday bash though.... throwing a MEGA hissy fit, right in front of everyone.

So be warned..... ... if you're organising a special birthday for someone..... make sure they're first on the action list.

Otherwise it's possible for someone else to beat them to it!!!!!

Psycho Maid Strikes Again!!!!

Gareth is definitely TOO nice a person... really.

Because of the fact that they (Gareth & Rhonda) rarely ever see the maid (I've discovered his name is Timothy Selby), they hardly got the chance to chat to this - um ... 'psychotic' - guy.

So, on one of Gareth's days off, he managed to catch up with Tim and had a chat with him.
Admittedly, the guy was pleasant enough, and they got on pretty well....




But that (I firmly believe) was the biggest mistake that Gareth EVER made.

From then on, Tim decided that he would plant his feet FIRMLY under the table .... and treat the place as if it were his own.

It all happened a few days ago, after Rhonda came back from her Egypt trip.
She was totally exhausted and had to retire to bed. Travelling such long distances, really DO take it out on these Sims.

Gareth decided to do a little work-out with the radio, Katie was having a lie-in, Alice was at school, and Joshua... well.... I'm not too sure, but I think he was asleep too.




When along came Tim... bold as brass...
... and the strangest, most evil grin on his face.




Yeah... mister... you just work that cute lil ass of yours. I've got other plans for you all. Starting with your wife.

I shall be entering your bedroom and will be standing staring at her whilst she sleeps. And there's NOTHING you can do about it.

MWAHAHAHAHA!!!!




And that's exactly what he did!!!




He hovered a little, stared down at her with a weird - perhaps longing - look on his face.
Before leaving the room!!!




*sigh* Wish she'd take notice of me, instead of regarding me as the 'hired help'.

Then he decided his next task would be the nanny!!!!
Although the house is relatively new, floorboards still creak when walked upon.
And he'd heard Katie moving about.

So he made his way up the stairs and walked into the bathroom, just as she was ... um... 'busy'




Oh, I am SO sorry!!! Tim wailed, pretending to cover his eyes with embarrassment.




But if you looked closely, he wasn't sorry AT ALL. He was simply enjoying this!!!




PERVERT!!!

Katie 'appeared' unflappable and took his apology quite well, but I'll bet she was embarrassed too.

That's fine, she replied, It's a busy household, these things happen. Now if you'll excuse me, I'd better have my shower.

As she turned away, there was a look of sheer glee on his face!!




Eeeeee, he whispered excitedly, I'm really getting away with this!!!




Until Katie whipped around and clocked him one..... right in the um... 'sensitive' area.

He yowled with pain before scuttling off!!!




THEN, he decided, whilst Gareth was still working out .... to help himself to a bowl of soup!!!




The nerve of this guy.... really.

**PLEASE NOTE**

Sims don't actually DO that, kick someone in the royal package, but given the situation and the expression on his face.... I couldn't resist adding that little bit in.
