How severe will the SL withdrawls be? Will I survive an entire week? What will become of my reoutation without me being around to defend myself. What sort of nasty rumors will Chris start in my absence? Where's my Stipend? Can this be the early Friday thread?

/me hands you a set of worry beads, tells you it will be ok!

(Don't worry, I'll try and make sure Chris doesn't do anything too awful in your absence, I have my ways...)

Hmmm - less than year old ? - withdrawal symptoms will still be severe. Take your laptop, look at your SL photos....make a todo list.....review your SL daily diary....it all helps *grin*

Buy some plywood. Make a box. Bring it with you. Whenever you look at it hold your arm out at a really weird angle.

No. The whole point of a vacation is to get away from it all.

You know the threads about doing SL things in RL? This is where it really becomes apparent. You will walk into walls, make that stupid little typing motion when you talk, try to fly, etc...

How often you do those things will show the true depth of the addiction.

Maybe if I win big at the crap table.

Please play nice while I'm gone. I'd hate to come back and find this place shut down without any help from me.

Negatively Yours.

You're going to Vegas!!! Forget SL. Also, if by chance you are taking Mirapex for Restless Leg Syndrome please stop taking it before you go. People taking Mirapex have reported problems with gambling, compulsive eating, and increased sex drive. You may come home broke, overweight... but then, on the other hand... completely satisfied.

(jesus, I didn't realize it originally said you may "come broke"... edited for grammar mistakes... LOL)

No kidding, but I just got broke. Lost 3K in three days but had a hell of a time doing it.

So Brenda's supposed to lose her own money and yours?

Or are you performing in Vegas, Brenda?

Do what Stephanie Plum would do and cause chaos. Have fun!

Brenda, perhaps you can just leave your avatar logged in, so we can all pop by and commit unspeakable act..... err.... umz.... wait! .. so we can all pop by and pretend that you are not really away but just having a quiet time when you don't answer us? (Whew, that was close, glad no one overheard me!)

What Classy says ... just park her in the corner at the hangout with an AFK. We'll look after her, and we'll dress her up nice and warm and in very tasteful colours too. Don't you worry about a thing Bren!
