Are you addicted to SL? If you have avery tried this, then you know you definately are :D

Here I am, sitting at work, acting like I program for a living, and I get this brain-fart. Hmm, my home machine is connected to the office's VPN, lets try remote desktoping to it, and see if I can work SL over that. Well, here's my screenshot, lol... It worked! I was able to actually dish out some IMs, chat a bit, and even finish some scripting I had to do :D

Luckily I am able to login to SL from work :)

Kinda hard to concentrate on my RL job when I have scripts to finish and dogs to make! ;)

I'm so addicted, I dated a girl at IT so she could grant the appropriate permissions on my work computer so I could install and play SL at work.


What!!?? What!!?? You would do it too, if you could!

Welcome Nephilaine, there's coffee, doughnuts and crack in the corner of the hall if you'd like.

I go home at lunch from work and log in. I'm hoping the novelty will wear off at some point.

Nephi's the good kind of addict.

I'm the oh-my-god-did-I-just-set-up-VNC-just-for-SL kind of addict. I don't know what I'm going to do...might as well build :)

Yes, I am addicted. I have SL on my two home computers, my almost dead laptop (which has a hard time running SL, but I force it to anyway) and when I'm at work...I spend way too much time in the forums. LMAO

However!!! I wouldn't give it up for nuthin! :p

I play it at home, often at work and sometimes at friends' homes. I will just complain that I can't roll SL in a paper and smoke it while waiting the bus. :D
