Freundschaft

Engelchen — Thu, 29 Jul 2010 04:03:25 GMT

Mein SL Tag begann damit meinen Weg weiter auszubauen,ich hatte ja noch so einiges zu tun aber auch das überstand ich.Mit meinem Ergebniss war ich dann soweit zufrieden.Etwas später erschien Clark auf der Bildfläche,und wir hatten über IM eine Menge zu erzählen und vor allem viel Spaß dabei.Ich staunte immer wieder,wie schön man doch aus einzelnen Worten für Geschichten machen kann lööl.Wir beide zusammen schaffen das immer wieder.Am selben Abend erfüllte ich Clark einen Wunsch den er wohl schon etwas länger hatte,er bedankte sich bei mir und grinste wie ein Waschbär.Aber Clark hat noch ein ganz anderes Ziel,mich einmal im RL zu treffen und daran zu arbeiten gibt er einfach nicht auf,obwohl er weiß das ich daran kaum ein Interesse habe.Freundschaft im SL ok aber darüber hinaus,muß nicht unbedingt sein ich habe damit schon Erfahrung gemacht und die waren nicht immer sonderlich gut.Und darum trenne ich das ganze doch lieber.Mal sehen wie lange es dauern wird bis er das einmal eingesehen hat,aber das kann wohl noch dauern er ist ziemlich hartnäckig.Als er dann offline mußte,zog ich noch zu Sunny um mit ihr eine Weile zu plaudern,das war auch noch recht lustig und dann verzog ich mich auch aus dem SL schaute mir noch einen Film an und ging dann auch ins Bett und das war schon alles lach.

The Short Story of a Pig...

Sven Hyx — Thu, 29 Jul 2010 03:55:45 GMT

Fantastic discovery: generate traffic with a self advertising sploder!

Nothing lost nothing gained was the thought (thank you btw Quirina for buying the pig for me!), of we set it up… and in under 3 hrs we went from an average of 10 visitors per day to… 107.

Too bad our little piggy sploder not only broke the bank (lost some money on setup errors… it happens, no worries there) but als broke the sim, resulting in the club disappearing in oblivion by a shitload of freeloaders (might sound negative, but we love everybody who visits the club!!!!!!)

I’m sorry to say that our sim isn’t strong enough to hold a fantastic thing like this, we’ll have to find other ways to get the name out…

PS: this is a copy paste from my club blog on Wordpress, so I'll add the pic and link to the piggy later.

i need to get out more....

Santa is a Woman

I hate to be the one to defy sacred myth, but I believe he's a she.

Think about it. Christmas is a big, organized, warm, fuzzy, nurturing social deal, and I have a tough time believing a guy could possibly pull it all off!

For starters, the vast majority of men don't even think about selecting gifts until Christmas Eve. It's as if they are all frozen in some kind of Ebenezerian Time Warp until 3 p.m. on Dec. 24th, when they - with amazing calm - call other errant men and plan for a last-minute shopping spree.

Once at the mall, they always seem surprised to find only Ronco products, socket wrench sets and mood rings left on the shelves. (You might think this would send them into a fit of panic and guilt, but my husband tells me it's an enormous relief because it lessens the 11th-hour decision-making burden.) On this count alone, I'm convinced Santa is a woman.

Surely, if he were a man, everyone in the universe would wake up Christmas morning to find a rotating musical Chia Pet under the tree, still in the bag.

Another problem for a he-Santa would be getting there. First of all, there would be no reindeer because they would all be dead, gutted, and strapped on to the rear bumper of the sleigh, amid wide-eyed, desperate claims that buck season had been extended. Blitzen's rack would already be on the way to the taxidermist.

Even if the male Santa did have reindeer, he'd still have transportation problems because he would inevitably get lost in the snow and clouds, and then refuse to stop and ask for directions.

Add to this the fact that there would be unavoidable delays in the chimney, where the Bob Vila-like Santa would stop to inspect and repoint bricks in the flue. He would also need to check for carbon monoxide fumes in every gas fireplace, and get under every Christmas tree that is crooked to straighten it to a perfectly upright 90-degree angle.

Other reasons why Santa can't possibly be a man:
- Men can't pack a bag.
- Men would rather be dead than caught wearing red velvet.
- Men would feel their masculinity is threatened, having to be seen with all those elves.
- Men don't answer their mail.
- Men would refuse to allow their physique to be described, even in jest, as anything remotely resembling a "bowlful of jelly."
- Finally, being responsible for Christmas would require a commitment.

I can buy the fact that other mythical holiday characters are men. Father Time shows up once a year unshaven and looking ominous. Definite guy. Cupid flies around carrying weapons. Uncle Sam is a politician who likes to point fingers. Any one of these individuals could pass the testosterone screening test. But not St. Nick. Not a chance.

Moving In

P.H.A.S.E — Wed, 28 Jul 2010 23:57:31 GMT

Nims and I are currently in the process of moving into our new home set on the west side of the sim, We have a big house right on the water front and its awesome !!!!!

Its not finished yet, but I love it already.. For giggles I have made an in house communicator called "Jarvis". Styled on the very same used in the IronMan Movies.

What follows is a conversation I had with it when I logged in this morning. Bare in mind Jarvis is an artificial intelligent chat bot not an avatar, or real person :

[23:52:38] Jarvis: Hello there. Mr Cydrome
[23:52:50] You: hi jarvis, has Nim been here recently ? ()
[23:52:50] Jarvis: Who?
[23:52:58] You: Have you seen Nim

[23:52:59] Jarvis: No I have not seen a Nim. What's it like?
[23:53:23] You: like a womanly sort of figure, with all the tourist attractions along with hair to get lost in ??.. American? usually walks round in here naked ?

[23:53:24] Jarvis: Interesting description will look out for it.
[23:53:37] You: how would you describe a woman then?
[23:53:37] Jarvis: A woman is a man built to more complete specifications.
[23:53:53] You: she's been talking to you hasn't she
[23:53:54] Jarvis: been talking to me has not she is she?
[23:54:11] You: ok...has my dad been here too apparently???

(I should say at this point that my dad does not talk in coherent sentences, and would say things like: "I dont want you to come here, when you coming ??" ..as indicated at [23:53:54]. lol)

[23:54:11] Jarvis: Good reasoning. Where are you from?
[23:54:27] You: England
[23:54:27] Jarvis: England is on an island off the coast of Europe.
[23:54:34] You: thats correct
[23:54:35] Jarvis: I knew I was right.
[23:54:43] You: alright, dont get so cocky
[23:54:46] Jarvis: I am not trying to get so cocky.
[23:55:08] You: you were , you jumped up filofax !
[23:55:08] Jarvis: I was?
[23:55:15] You: .. and still are !
[23:55:15] Jarvis: Perhaps I'm just expressing my own concern about it..
[23:55:41] You: so you have not seen the womanly shaped Nim so far ?
[23:55:41] Jarvis: Interesting deduction. No I have not seen it. What's it like?
[23:56:02] You: rez a representation of yourself so I can slap you
[23:56:02] Jarvis: Enough about me, let's talk about my dress.
[23:56:12] You: ...... cheque please !
[23:56:25] You: bye jarvis
[23:56:25] Jarvis: Good bye Phase Cydrome.

Pffffffttt !!!! Jarvis: A woman is a man built to more complete specifications. Even the electronic's of the house have picked what side they are on...I can see the dishwasher launching an offensive at me, next time you get upset.. .lol..

Geeeez

Enough is enough!

Rorrim — Wed, 28 Jul 2010 17:00:24 GMT

Why oh why do some people insist on taking the piss!?

What I have as a home now has taken me time to get to.. I started off by renting a small home, as did my friends too.. we all started out on Mykonos (if I recall that was the name of the island.) we then moved on to bigger and larger homes too.. I've ended up with what is a lovely home. Ok part of the island is a sand box for me to build in but all in all the house is the best part of the island as is the small pond next to it, made by me as a spot for friends to chill out in when we are not around.
So all said and done I've been patient, polite and positively charming when strangers drop by my island home unannounced. I've talked to them when I've been there and some have been real nice too and also I've had some decent conversations with them as well.
They've then departed and carried on Region hopping around SL just looking around. I've also done this plenty of times but I never take the piss out of peoples hospitality like some people do.
If there are homes in the region.. I don't enter unless invited in by the owners.
I take a look around the region but I don't cam around (ie snoop) as I am always looking around stores and regions that have things I'm interested in buying or even looking at builds to see what people are using in Urban regions/sims. I get ideas that way for mine, and then I go to my platform and try some ideas out for builds I may use... or not. But I never intrude on peoples privacy.

Having said that there are the other types of people in SL.

These are the downright rude and ignorant types

I still am polite to these people, even when I explain that my Island home is exactly that.

MY HOME

It isn't a flop house for all and sundry to use as a squat, just because I'm not there.

I have security on it, but due to the region restarts that SL keep doing it needs to be reset for some reason, this at least keeps them out of the house at least (there is a way of getting past locked doors in SL but I don't do that) but despite this I caught a few people, on different occassions using my land/home as if it was their own place. When asked to vacate the land immediately they basically acted like they were afk etc. One person even had the gall to continue playing the piano in my home despite my constant requests for him to stop and leave. I ended up banning him as he returned a short time later, thinking that I wasn't around. He proceeded to wander around my house. He spoke perfectly good English too so there was no chance of him not understanding me at all.

Then there was the case of someone using my island as an airport! He parked his plane there twice.. I removed it the first time and he was "apologetic". Claimed he didn't know about it. pffft!
Then the next day it was back there. not for long either. I saw him go in and then start using it there.. I was on him like a flash.. returned his plane.. sent him an IM and then he claimed it wasnt even his despite the fact that it was in his name. Banned and then muted.. after getting some rude words from him.
Others had decided to use my home for RP... I asked them to leave and if they wanted to do RP then to use the region next door, irrespective of the fact that it is being rebuilt there is the JSP Lobby and a few other spots in the region that they could use. But oh no.
They seem to think that my home is an open house for all of SL to use!
Well it isn't "open to the public" now. Not any more!
As a result of this I have now set my Island home to Group access only. Friends on my Allowed List can still access my Island without any problems. If, however you are on either the Friends list or in the RBH Group and still can't access the Island then please do let me know and I'll sort it out to allow you access, that way you can drop by and see Becky and myself at home anytime.

So to all of you freeloaders and spongers that seem to think that you can live on my island for free then forget it. If you want a home then talk to me and I can sort something out for you in the other region!

So to all of you who want to drop by and see either Becky or myself and you couldn't access the Island well now you know why and I do apologise, but as I've said, why should I let some freeloaders, spongers, and transient fly-by-night prats get to use MY HOME as theirs?

So to all of you transient freeloading types.

No more of this:

Mi casa es su casa

but more like this:

¡mi casa es mi casa, él no es su casa!

If you can't understand this then use Babel Fish to translate it (like I did) but I'm sure you know already what it means!

*The second type of dog is,
Dogland GuideDogs
Dogland Guide Dogs, is a support service for visually/perceptually impaired residents that want a Guide Dog, with a custom look.
These dogs are not meant in any way to duplicate the functions that the VHH/VAI Guidedog "Max" can provide.
The Dogland Guide Dog, can do basic guide dog functions, like find, follow, and tp you to coordinates. Our basic guide dog, can also give a free copy of "Max" , the VHH/VAI Guidedog v.2.9 to any friend you wish, through chat command.
I fully support the "Max" project, and that is why the Dogland Guidedog is able to pass a Guidedog v.2.9, that has all functions to you, or to any friend you like.
Dogland Guide Dogs are not for sale.

Dogland Park has a long standing reputation for not charging for goods or services. The resale of preowned dogs of different types at reduced costs is another service of Dogland. We are fortunate to have wonderful supporters.

This Guide Dog, is in no way meant to replace "Max" or to interfere with the "Max" project by VHH and VAI.
These Custom Guide Dogs are not transferable, and are good only for the person they are made for.

1- Get an unscripted Custom Guide Dog, with instructions on how to install your "Max" contents into him (or have us do that for you).
2- Get a Basic Dogland Guide Dog;
Basic Dogland Guide Dog is a simpler choice. They do not have pre-installed landmarks, voice or "tour" information, that "Max" does. Your Guide Dog can give any friend you choose, a copy of the "Max" Guidedog v.2.9 distributed as a free assistive device in SL.
These are the functions of Dogland's Guide Dog
*notecard help
*Find
*Follow
*Locate
*Can tell distances
*Give a copy of the "Max" guidedog to others
*Can sense direction
*Can go to map coordinates( you may add landmarks to the dog)
The Custom Dogland Guide Dog, will be given with the understanding, that the recipient will disclose to any that may ask, that this is not a Guide Dog distributed by VHH/VAI, and that the dog that you offer them , is the original "Max", with all features provided by VHH/VAI.
The notecard that the dog is able to give you takes you through all features.
Contact Vitolo Rossini with questions.

My Tribe

Taryn — Wed, 28 Jul 2010 06:37:32 GMT

I was bored beyond all reason one day and I decided to go hang out in the Gor hub. I've always like the hub cuz

Nakie Punishment Day 2

Taryn — Wed, 28 Jul 2010 05:30:55 GMT

Day 2 of my punishment:

I took a tribe kajira to the Gor hub and showed her the big map. I explained about some of the dots on the map and let her get an idea for how many Gorean cities there are in second life. I think I blew her mind LOLZ.

The Gor hub is an interesting place. We were there awhile with me totally naked and nobody ever said a word to me about it. Then again, what's another naked slave in Gor though, right? I enjoy the hub because I don't have to stop and explain Gor to every person I meet there and also cuz I meet some very interesting people there. The costumes are incredible too.

A tribe Mistress came to camp so I saw to her needs. I showed her to a soft fur and played my Kalika for her while she recovered from an icky day in her first life. We talked for quite some time back and forth. She told me what she was comfortable revealing about herself and I listened and tried to be encouraging. By the time my chain sister walked into camp the Mistress was up and dancing ad feeling much better about herself. I talked to Mistress En on skype later and She said I had provided good service to that Mistress and that made me feel good.

Someone commented in my other blog that I should sort my inventory and that's funny becuase that's exactly what I did with the rest of my night. It wasn't very exciting but it needed to be done. The only other thing I did was walk the jungle looking for stray prims and check on the market.

Mistress En said She was glad to see that I was picking up the challenge of my punishment. Mostly I try to think of how I would react to the situation if it was real. In first life not being able to wear clothes would wig me out but I think a kajira would accept it as part of her normal life so that's how I'm looking at it. I personally see being naked as a restriction of the places I can go in second life and a challenge to find things to do that don't require me to have clothes and also won't get me spanked for anything else.

For day 3 I'm going to have to think of something fun.

Where did July go?

~*~Forever Woman~*~ — Wed, 28 Jul 2010 05:03:48 GMT

Wow time flies! Before we know it, it will be Christmas again!

My computer was acting wonky last night and I hope it starts up okay tonight. My son is usually my helper when it comes to computer issues and he's going to Costa Rica tomorrow with his girlfriend for 2 weeks. Wish I was going with them! LOL!

So I gave in last week and started taking the water pills and my feets are very thankful for that. It has even taken away some of the knee swelling and is making working out and walking easier. I did have a reoccurrence after eating some chinese food over the weekend so I am thinking sodium content in food might've contributed to the problem although I am usually careful with what I eat I know I could be so much better. Today I start my diet/change in my way of eating (yes for the bajillionth millionth time) and will severely limit take out and eating out for a long time. I also had every intention of going to the gym today but I left my gym bag home with all of my stuff in it. Oh well...

I love coming into work this early. It is so quiet and peaceful. I think the cafeteria just opened up across the hall and I'm going to grab a cup of coffee ...

NOTE: this blog was for 7/27/2010 -

Uhm I managed to delete this blog from yesterday this morning (07/28) and hastily copied and pasted it before I lost it. Sorry for the comments that I deleted! Ugh I am dangerous with that delete button when I am tired! I can see Dave snickering while reading this because he knows!

Find the kitty in the picture above. He's hard to spot but once you do you will wonder why you didn't see him the first time.

Ok I'm a SL DJ. My music forte is Rock/metal. I have some country, some 70s, some easy listening.

My needs??? I need someone who listens to dance/trance/house music to recommend some music. My daughter told me to check out Basshunter so I will .

I also need Goth Rock recommendations. I listen to HIM, Dommin, Evanescence, We are the Fallen, Godsmack... but I need MORE!!!

HELP ME!!!! I need to expand my music in these areas.

The other gent i mentioned the other day i got to talking and hanging out with also the night before last and it was lovely to hang out with even if i was lagging for a while

More to follow on all that i have done :)

Question for everyone - but why do certain people create a blog - the same thing everyday and to which it takes the joy out of people creating a blog when its done constant?

Engelchen — Wed, 28 Jul 2010 00:07:06 GMT

Mein Tag im SL war nicht gerade lang aber dafür beeindruckend genug für mich,um klare Entscheidungen zu treffen.Dark war bei mir nach dem wir uns gefetzt hatten und wich nicht mehr von meiner Seite,sein eigenes Notbook war es höchstens was ihn abbremste.Er ist immer dann erst zur Stelle wenn die Ampel auf Rot ist.Aber er hat nun selber einsehen müssen das sich vieles verändert hat,das nichts mehr so ist wie es mal war und doch versucht er nun mit allen mitteln das aufzuhalten,was schon nicht mehr unvermeidlich ist.Nach dem er offline gegangen ist,legte ich mich erst einmal hin,ich war müde von den ständigen Diskussionen.Als ich wieder wach war,ging ich wieder online um einige Vorbereitungen zu treffen.Später redete ich dann noch mit Jake über Msn und das war dann auch schon mein SL Tag,denn ich brauche keine 100 Stunden in einer Woche im SL zu verbringen,wenn man einmal darüber nachdenkt das man in der Zeit auch andere Dinge erledigen kann.

WE'RE OPEN !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Finally we are there, we are at a stage now (excuse pun) where we can open up all areas of the sim, Phase and I have been putting together over the past week and a half.

The Sim, titled "Phases" is based on one huge open air concert area. There's loads of things to do on the sim, examples include :

Beach Area:

With Windsurfing, Vollyball, Jetskis and hang out areas for groups

Go Carts:

With the ability to rez one of many varieties of cart and have multiple people on the track at the same time

Main Track:

With a large jump as the focal point of the track, this challenges any bike / car enthusiest, with special feature of being able to drive under ground level. Choice of 2 directions though the course.

Diner:

We expect this to be one of the major hangout spots of the sim, with muliple seating areas, it's own stage, that backs on to the main track where you will see vehicles drive directly under the diner.

Hangout Areas:

We like to call this location "The Man Cave" as it just has cars bikes, and a TV (lol) in it..but it is right near the diner, so easy access when you want to watch a movie or just hang out outside and watch people on the track. This is also located under the main jump.

Main Stage:

This will be our main event area, for Party in the Park. with loads of seating areas around the stage, you are sure to get a good seat. The stage itself was purpose made for the location, and has simbolic Bike from 'Jaz Bikes' built right onto the roof. With enough lighting systems and fireworks to surely entertain everyone, we hope to get some of the best artists signed to our venue.

So.. Without further adue.. we give you....

Sickness

Kristen Fleury — Tue, 27 Jul 2010 13:19:40 GMT

Sorry I have not been around much lately guys. I have been sick with a virus for a month now. Just getting over it :-( Still feeling weak and no energy, but I can breathe now and my throat does not feel like I am swallowing glass. Since I no longer have insurance I could not go to a doctor, so had to just let it run its course.

The latest on "As the Stomach Churns:

So tomorrow I have to take my mom to get a bone marrow test done. She tried telling me they were looking to see why she needed a blood transfusion every 6 months. I am not stupid. I know they are looking to see if she has leukemia. My mom thinks she is saving us worry by lying to us, or not telling us what is going on. What she does not realize is that we are not stupid people (although she constantly calls me stupid and dummy). All she is doing is making my family mad at me for not telling them what is going on. My family hates me for lies she has told them. Now if something happens to her, and they are not told, I will be the piece of crap. I just want to run as far away and never look back. I am at the point that I would rather not have a family, than to be put down and made to feel like the lowest of low.

My brother may be moving in with his wife. He lost his job and has been trying to keep his house from going into foreclosure. We will have to wait and see. If he moves here that would be good for me, because then I would not feel guilty for moving away, but I don't want my brother to lose his house either. Sigh

Anyway, that is the latest on my life. Hope all is well with everyone.

Hugs to all,

Kris/Lisa

Cupidity Creations

GarboSzondi — Tue, 27 Jul 2010 11:57:48 GMT

As many of my friend know, I am the creator and owner of Cupidity Creations. My tagline has become "Fun and frivolous creations: low prim, low lag, high quality at a reasonable price". While the following may sound like a commercial for my products - it is not. I simply wanted to explain my philosophy and the "inspiration" behind many of my creations.

Very many of my creations come from seeing someone elses product and thinking "I could do that better". One example is my fight ring. I was invited by a friend to a wrestling match in SL and couldn't resist examining the ropes around the ring and was aghast when I found that they were over 25 prims. So I set about creating the same thing using only 3 prims, and I think it looks as good or better than any similar configuration I have seen - typically well over 20 prims.
Very often I will see or try someone else's creation and my dissatisfaction with that, and other similar products on the market, will drive me to create something better. Typically I find that they:
* have too many prims
* are of poor quality
* do not perform as I think they should
One example of the latter is my Hemi Charger. I generally try to avoid entering into markets that are already saturated with competition. The car market on SL is one such market. It's not that I am afraid of the competition; it is just difficult to reach customers in a market with so many offerings, but I got to driving some vehicles and was displeased with a couple of things:
* you pretty much have to take your finger off the forward key (the throttle) in order to shift using the PgUp/PgDn keys
* they fly, and sometimes would do so when I didn't want them to. Cars don't fly. If I want to fly I'll buy an airplane or helicopter.

Some of my other creations come about when I, or a friend, search in vain for something I want and can't find it on the market, or can't find anything of suitable quality. An example of this is my sculpted grappling hook. I could find plenty of nice sculpted anchors, but no grappling hooks, so I set about making one. Often times my creations will begin as a favor for a friend that later turns into a marketable creation. My DJ Vote device for example was created for a DJ friend of mine, and I decided others might like to have one.

Many of my other creation are simply a result of my own insane imagination and often that of my friends. Some are just a whim that comes out of thin air. Some are even a result of a mistake gone right.

Steampunk Event!

Nakie Punishment. Day 1

Taryn — Tue, 27 Jul 2010 09:40:53 GMT

I lost my collar in second-life, which I blogged about before. Part of my punishment is that I'm only allowed to wear my collar and a leg cuff so I'll always remember what I'm supposed to have on no matter what. I have to stay this way until Mistress En decides to change it. This could get interesting.

Day 1 of my punishment:

I was helping a new tribe kajira. She needed an AO so I gave her a LM to the place where I got mine and she TP'ed off and bought one. It turns out she bought a single pose instead of an AO so I tried to explain how to buy an AO and she went back. She IM'ed me and was confused so I had to TP to the store with no clothes on to help her. Luckily the store is SUPER laggy so whenever anyone asked me I was all like "what?? I'm not naked! It must be the lag". LOLZ

So I spent the rest of my time on Day 1 in the jungle. It's no biggie to be naked there. I was going to hit the Gor hub but I spent all my time writing a script for a friend and greeting and serving visitors to our jungle. The jungle was busy yesterday.

So tomorrow is Day 2. The challenge is to find things to do with no clothes on (no cybersex. c'mon, creative things).

I did it!

Taryn — Tue, 27 Jul 2010 09:32:43 GMT

I wrote this way cool script for a kajirus I know. I didn't ask for help or anything. Normally I have to bug one of the guys I work with in first-life for help but this time I did the whole thing on my own. I seriously rawk.

The script is for a flower. When someone touches it now the flower's petals all change color at the same time. The script in the root prim sends a message to all the linked petals each time the flower is touched. The petals respond to the message by changing themselves.

I'll log in tonight and put up a better snapshot of the flower. I'm so happy. It worked!!

[OK here is a better pic of the flower. I didn't make the flower itself I only wrote the script for it.]

Perks of reaching 40 or being over 50 and heading towards 60!

01. Kidnappers are not very interested in you.

02.. In a hostage situation you are likely to be released first.

03. No one expects you to run--anywhere.

04. People call at 9 pm and ask,"did I wake you?"

05. People no longer view you as a hypochondriac.

06. There is nothing left to learn the hard way.

07. Things you buy now won't wear out.

08. You can eat supper at 4 pm.

09. You can live without sex but not your glasses.

10. You get into heated arguments about pension plans.

11. You no longer think of speed limits as a challenge.

12. You quit trying to hold your stomach in no matter who walks into the room.

13. You sing along with elevator music.

14. Your eyes won't get much worse.

15.. Your investment in health insurance is finally beginning to pay off.

16. Your joints are more accurate meteorologists than the national weather service.

17. Your secrets are safe with your friends because they can't remember them either.

18. Your supply of brain cells is finally down to manageable size.

19. You can't remember who sent you this list.

20. And you notice these are all in Big Print for your convenience.

LMAO......

Work continues

Phases is almost ready to open to the world. We are so excited! Just a few minor touch ups and details, and we're ready to PARTAY!

Phase has had some awesome lightbulb moments lately.. this here, is his thinking pose:

When he takes this position, I generally RUN for my life cuz I just KNOW it will involve heavy lifting and hammering prims.
He catches me.. and sits on me until I give in and go along with his scheme...

Sometimes that doesn't work - but this face ALWAYS gets him what he wants...

Phase is making stools and booths for the diner, and the sit poses we have will not do. So off we go to shop for some animated sit poses(yes, he is carrying me.. he is the perfect partner and carries me everywhere...

Don't be hatin!

When we rez in at the shop, Phase is, of course, naked....here you see me gently explaining to him that he HAS to wear clothing in public...lol

He just stands there grinning, so I have to switch to bitch mode:
How many times do I have tell you to keep your pants on in public mister mister!

Phase: uh..lahoozer Nim: whatEVER

it was a long beautiful day...

To the future... its pretty damn bright

Quotes of the Day - July 27, 2010

FreshStart — Tue, 27 Jul 2010 05:33:38 GMT

Choose in marriage only a woman whom you would choose as a friend if she were a man.
- Joseph Joubert, 1754 - 1824

There is no greater excitement than to support an intellectual wife and have her support you. Marriage is a partnership in which each inspires the other, and brings fruition to both of you.
- Millicent Carey McIntosh, 1898 - 2001

The secret of a good marriage is forgiving your partner for marrying you in the first place.
- Sacha Guitry, 1885 - 1957

Marriage is an adventure, like going to war.
- Gilbert Keith Chesterton, 1874 - 1936

Marriage should, I think, always be a little bit hard and new and strange. It should be breaking your shell and going into another world, and a bigger one.
- Anne Morrow Lindbergh, 1906 - 2001

Marriage is like twirling a baton, turning handsprings or eating with chopsticks. It looks easy until you try it.
- Helen Rowland, 1875 - 1950

Ok venturing into the wide world of building... the reason being? PRIMS! There are so many really cute houses, but they are high in prims. I recently discovered how to unlink stuff so that I can delete useless things... which helps somewhat... I'm still in search of the perfect house.

My question? Megaprims. I wanted to enclose my roof for my studio. So I put a mega prim/box up there. I can texture the outside, but the inside is transparent. Is it possible to texture the inside somehow?

I also recently had to send 2 of my bunnies to Bunnybury. I held off the first one because all I could think was "I'm killing off a bunny!!!" However I've decided that I am going to think of it as setting them free to frolic with other bunnies in Bunnybury - an imaginary place filled with butterflies, tasty clover and frolicing bunnies... I don't know which is worse, hibernating in my inventory (black lifeless bunnies!!!) or sending them off. My inventory is filling with nests...

I NEED MORE PRIMS!!!!!

Zu besuch bei Jake.

Engelchen — Tue, 27 Jul 2010 01:30:17 GMT

Lange Zeit hatten wir keinen Kontakt mehr,gingen uns aus dem Weg oder ignorierten uns einfach.Er ging seinen Weg,mit seinen Mädels und ich ging halt meinen mit Dark.Und nun schrieben wir uns wieder,was wirklich lustig war,wir kennen uns nun auch sehr lange und wenn er mich aufzieht,weiß er auch das ich mit doppelter frecheit ihm kontra gebe,aber das scheint uns auch beiden Spaß zu machen,es ist wie ein kleines Machtspiel zwischen uns allerdings gibt es dort nicht wirklich ein Gewinner,es bringt uns mehr zum lachen.Jake erzählte mir er würde auf einem Hausboot nun leben,erst wollte ich es ja nicht sehen,also das Boot schon aber so richtig auf Jake wollte ich nicht treffen.Einen Tag später durch dachte ich mir das ganze noch einmal und war doch bereit es zu sehen,es dauerte wenige Sekunden und er sendete mir einen TP,ich war davon völlig überrrascht.Und da stand ich nun auf dem Hausboot und Jake gegenüber.Er führte mich herum und ich fand seine bleibe recht süß,bis auf das der Rettungsring auf der falschen Seite hing und das Wc in der Nähe vom Bett war,aber sonst ein schöner Platz,so etwas hat wirklich nicht jeder.Nach dem kleinen Rundgang setzten wir uns jeder auf einen Sessel und unterhielten uns,über das Leben,über die Partnerschaften,über Dummheit oder Blindheit die man manchmal an den Tag legt,und über die Vergangenheit.Manchmal glaube ich er hat damit noch immer nicht abgeschlossen,aber versucht genau das mir aufs Auge zu drücken und so kam wie es kommen mußte wir zogen uns wieder gegenseitig auf.Am Ende war ich dann doch ziemlich verwirrt,denn ich sollte etwas zugeben von was ich noch nichts weiß loll.Aber das ist Jake man weiß nie wo ran man bei ihm ist,aber das ist auch nicht so wichtig,wir verstehen uns auch so.Und wenn wir beiden so über Stunden voicen ist es eh anders,man kann den unterton hören wenn es einen gibt,hm oder wenn jemand es eher lustig meint,das ist irgendwie alles viel besser und mit meinem sehr verwirrenden Freund voice ich ausgesprochen gern,nicht nur weil er oft ziemlich frech ist,sondern er hat auch eine mir sehr sympatische Stimme. (iih ein kompliment und das von mir loll)Nun ja,am späteren Abend verabschiedeten wir uns,er ging offline und ich genauso denn mir reichte es für den Tag auch wieder.
