so
i went out and bought the sims makin' magic. the last expansion pack prior to ea games coming out with the sims 2 (which i don't think my video card can handle). makin' magic is hilarious! you go to magic town and buy things like toad sweat, honey, and rubber chickens to put into your spell machine. then you charge your magic wand and cast a spell on another sim. you can also go to magic town and participate in duels and magic shows. it's probably my favorite expansion pack since hot date.
