The Life of Bob Newbie

A/N: I did not create Bob or Betty Newbie, Maxis did. I do, however, own all of the other characters that I may mention. This story came to me while I was bored and had writer's block.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Bob Newbie was born in a small house in Neighborhood Seven at 12:01 on the 3rd day that his parents had lived in their house. Bob's family never had very many Simoleeons, but they had lots of love (sappy, huh?).

Bob had a hard time in school. He never had very good grades and once was warned that if his grades did not pick up, he would be sent off to Military School. Bob took note of that, and his grades were raised a bit.

Also, Bob was almost sent to SimCity Penitentiary for pranking the police and fire departments numerous times. Bob was sent to court. This experience really opened his eyes to what the real world was like.

Bob departed for SimCity University when he was 19, but later dropped out after he ran out of money.

At one time, Bob had a job as a Bungee Jump Instructor in the Dare Devil track. But alas, this did not work out for dear Bob.

When Bob turned 25, he met his soon-to-be love Betty Noodlegershwinheimer. Beautiful, sensitive, educated and a good cook, Bob knew Betty was the one for him. Soon, he and Betty were in love, and Bob finally got up the courage to ask her to marry him. She accepted!

Bob and Betty were married in an incredibly quick ceremony and moved into a small house across the street from Molly Grace (one of my characters I use). Bob and Betty both agreed that it was important for them to live in a small house so they could remain as down to Earth as possible.

Bob and Betty seemed to be happy, but Bob wasn't content with his small home like Betty was. Betty had made friends with Brandi Amaloo (another one of my created characters), and Bob was invited to visit the Amaloo's with Betty, and soon Bob was friends with Rafe Amaloo. Rafe invited Bob to move in, and Mr. Newbie accepted the invite!

Now Bob lives in Bob's Barn, a specially added room, at the Amaloo home. The Amaloos are Rafe and Brandi, their daughters Felix, Grace and Jenna, and their son, Danny. The Amaloos also have a baby; Rafe Jr.

"Bob is a very good second father to the children," says Rafe. "They adore him." Several attempts have been made to have Betty move into the home, but none have been successful.
