The thing about starting a blog… is that you have to get used to making time TO blog. For me, that means dragging myself out of my SL world long enough to make a post!
Not that I spend all day in my virtual universe, of course, but by the time I get to put a halt to RL responsibilities I’m ready to PLAY.
Much has happened since my last post. I sorted though my inventory for the first time. Yes, the first time. Let me make this clear to new players: NEVER put this off! Don’t make the mistake I did… island-hopping around, blissfully collecting all kinds of freebies, without thinking of the glorious mess of inventory I’d have to face later. Do yourself a favor… create a system for organizing and stick with it. Empty your trash daily. You don’t even know the headache you’ll save yourself!
In other news, I have made Vero Beach my home and am truly loving it. Full of mostly Julia Hathor (LOVE) designs and spread across two corner plots… I feel very spoiled. In addition, I have already started and stopped my first job. As predicted by my good friend Alexis… I didn’t last long. I gave dancing a fair shot. I really did. I made myself excited about dressing up and begging for attention on a pixel pole for virtual perverts… well, almost excited anyway. I wanted the money. Once I was there, though, I confirmed that it is not my crowd. It doesn’t do it for me in RL, and particularly not in SL. *sigh*
Another good friend, Robert, could tell I wasn’t happy. He visited for maybe 30 seconds and quickly agreed that I was out of place. After telling me that I can and will get a job I *like*, he gave me a few bucks (an understatement) and told me that if I don’t like it… well then, I should leave. So I did!
With the L$ gift, I purchased a flowery little mailbox. Please come test it for me, you know, make sure it can receive notes.
