The Proposal

Me: Ladies, I'm so happy you could join me. I've gathered you here together to ask you a favor.

Jessica: Why should I do you a favor? You've been doing this blog for over a year, and you haven't even gotten to my hood yet!

Chloe: And my sister is devastated because you wouldn't let her marry Ajay.
Me: Okay, I get it that some of you are displeased with me. But will you please help me?

Natasha: Ladies, I think we should hear her out. Many Simmers pass us over for their own custom Sims, but she's been kind to feature us in her blog. Let her have her say.
Me: Thank you, Natasha. Well, ladies, I've been struggling with the game. I fire it up, but I'm not inspired. I love you guys, and I want to keep telling your story, but I need a diversion to get the juices flowing again.

Chloe: Proceed.
Me: In my world, there is a television program called "The Bachelor." A group of lovely ladies such as yourselves meet a handsome, successful, eligible young man. He goes on a series of dates with you, and at the end he selects the woman that has captivated him the most.

Jessica: You mean I would have to fight with these three broads over one guy?

Me: Well, actually, you would be fighting with six other broads. I have selected you four, and my readers are going to choose the other three contestants.

Natasha: Why on SimEarth would we want to do this?

Me: Because...it would be fun...er, for me. And the lucky girl might just find her husband.

Cassandra: Wait, did you say "husband?"

Jessica, Natasha, and Chloe: CASS!

Me: I did indeed, Cassandra, our Bachelor may choose to propose to his lady at the end. And if he does, I promise to throw you a big wedding.

Cassandra: Where do I sign?

That's right, readers. We're doing "The Bachelor" Sim-Style, and you get to pick the final three contestants. See the poll in the sidebar. The top three vote-getters will join Cassandra, Chloe, Jessica, and Natasha in the Bachelorette pad. Voting ends at 11:59 PM EST on Friday, January 22nd, 2010 .
