New to The Sims, basic questions

[norwood]

Wow, thanks for the help folks!  {clap}

Also...when another Sim comes over and visits they always go into my bedroom and turn on the TV as opposed to turning on the TV in the living room they walk right through to get to the bedroom!  I've got a TV and everything else like chairs and couches in the living room for guests, but they always decide to stand in my bedroom...why?  {wacko}
