[[http://simsinthecity.livejournal.com/ Our Lives]] is a {{Machinomic}} written by Tom Wiegand, a.k.a. Simsinthecity, made with ''[[TheSims The Sims 2]]''.

Nicole Donner is a young girl with a big heart. After her parents die in a car accident one night, she is sent to live with the Duke family: Donavon, a boy her age, and his parents Hugh and Briana. The story has seen her adapting to her new family, new home, new school and new friends.

After a computer crash a few months into the story forced Simsinthecity to cease production after just a prologue and three chapters, [[ScheduleSlip the story has not been updated in over year as of June 2011]]. [[WordOfGod Simsinthecity has stated]] he doesn't want to abandon the story; his plans to bring it back may come to fruition in the summer of 2011.
