Well, I'll tell you a little. The whole story is prime SLoap Opera and would take WAY too long.

The short version is, after breaking up with a previous steady, I renewed my acquaintance with some old friends. They'd become partners, and were living with another partnered couple in a sort of plural marriage arrangement. We began spending more time together, all four of us, and when I sold my parcel at Lebettu, they invited me to come and stay with them.

As it turned out, our feelings for each other had grown way beyond the houseguest stage, and last night they not only asked me to live with them, but to become their co-wife. I was pleased more than I can possibly say to accept.

And THAT is something I would never have predicted, back when I started SL. :eek: :D



Wow! congratulations, Lin. I'm really happy for you. And Cindi is a doll! Looking forward to meeting Evelyn.

PS Or is it the "beautiful" bit that is holding you back?


Ironic, coming from a person with perhaps the ugliest mind and personality I've ever had the misfortune of encountering, in RL or otherwise.

Very pretty. Did whomever you were waiting for finally show up? Their loss if not.

Cindi is the one I need to meet. Evelyn is super sweet. I had some very interesting philosophical discussions with her at the hangout many months back.

Hi everybuggy! Happy an good mornin' or night dependin'!

A much busier weekend this time 'round than last. Fair wanring, too - a lot of stuff with Bay City below. Like every third word or someting.

Started out on Friday, exploring Avaria with my sister an brother. They recently redid the ground level with completely new terraforming an stuff. I loved it before, an I love it again. Still some of the prettiest "open space" in Second Life.

May first was the start of the Bay City Flea Market, a project of the Bay City alliance. We managed to get Linden Lab let us have the Message of the Day (MotD) for the weekend to promote it, which meant tons of traffic came by. I had a selection of my regular stuff all marked down, some stuff I've never had a store space for, an even some ol' inventory stuff to get rid of. The event went super well for alla us.

Of course, that is also May Day, so I made sure to dance around a may pole on Livingtree, like I have for the last couple years now.



Saturday was a busy RL day, so not as much SL time. One thing I did help cause was getting an Artilleri location in Bay City. I'm very excited about this, cuz Artilleri is one of those stores I've wanted to see in Bay City. Definitely fits the time frame an sells great stuff. They're new location there fits the city beautifully, too.



That's my "ebil plan" with Bay City, by th' way. I want to see some of SLs best there, great content creators who make amazing things that fit the overall "feel" of the area. Really want to see Bay City live up to the plans, an be the best of the SL Mainland. So far, I think were doin' a good job.

Anyways, I also did some exploring that day, finally getting some time to hunt around Rustica. What a beatiful sim, with lots of nooks and crannies. I loved this arch way, with its dwarf face.



Sunday started with the Bay City Alliance meetin', where we all talked about the flea market an the upcoming Bay City parade and party to celebrate our first anniversary. This will be a big, big thing. Expect to see a little of everything there! More on this soon. :-)

I also got some time to check out the latest from Madcow Cosmos and Lorin Tone. I was really checking to see if the Blurtophones were out in the stores yet (not yet!), but Lorin showed me some of the other "coming soon" avvies. They're making some amazing things. Here's a sitar playing avvie the two of them have been working on. Amazing work!



An last, is this. You see, I had a pose from -RC- Cluster in my inventory jes doin nuttin', an sorta an idea for a piccie, an Johnny was available so I had 'em pose with me. An he's a boy, an a friend, but that does not make him a boyfriend!



An that's th' weekend! Hope ya'll had fun!
Thanks Mari. I don't want to go through child hood again. But I sure do enjoy the fun and sun-drenched one you are making for yourself.

Good morning, Threadies!

Today, we travel to Spain.

El Desayuno– Breakfast


A typical breakfast might include café con leche - strong coffee with hot, frothy milk, churros, bollos (sweet rolls) with jam, or toast with jam or mild cheese.






Now...Tapas. Tapas are eaten well after breakfast, but before lunch, the large mid-afternoon meal!


Tapas-time includes bar-hopping to wine-taste and chat, a different Tapa at each stop. Spanish love tapas so much, they made a verb out of it. The phrase Vamos a tapear! means “Let’s go eat tapas!” A few of the most popular tapas are:


Tortilla Española - Spanish Omelet

Patatas Bravas - Potatoes with Spicey Brava Sauce

Gambas al Ajillo - Shrimp in Garlic



(from http://spanishfood.about.com/od/discoverspanishfood/a/spain_meals.htm)
Maureen, I love all the international cuisine we've been having lately. :D Especially when I can imagine it's vegetarian. And Miles Davis' horn is a nice accompaniment to the meal.

Pep (Although somehow I doubt that you are likely to put your money where your mouth is :p )

I already have...for Trout. And I never DID get my Slut Rating from him, the scoundrel.

But let's turn it around, Peppy. You put YOUR money on it. Send me L$1,000. In return, you'll receive a full-body, full color nude picture of your favorite detractor, moi. You can use it to throw darts at, if you like. That's what I do with yours. :p

Good morning everyone. My RL weekend was spent bringing one computer up to current patch level so it is ready for my mom's visit later this week, and pulling my hair out trying to clean all the trojans off of my daughter's laptop. Her anti-virus/anti-spyware software expired about 2 weeks ago and apparently last week she picked up something so horrid that it pretty much made her computer unusable. I had to download 3 different cleaners, all specifically targeting this one trojan, before I finally got it cleaned. And I am still finishing fixing the aftermath.
...
Glad your SL weekend was more fun, Lil! I'm afraid I'm going to be having this problem soon...

Brenda, didn't you have a link to some free anti-virus/anti-spy software? If so could you post it again, please?

That picture reminds me of the wonderful book, "Tamsin" by Peter S. Beagle. One of my very favorites.

Geek.

Gettysburg was enthralling. The weather cut short my exploration a bit, but I did see a lot more than I did during my last visit. I did some brush up reading on the battle last week to have a fresh perspective.
I'd love to go there some time. My husband has several times and he found it to be pretty powerful. If I ever do get a chance I'll want to brush up on the history first, too.

How did Boomer like it?

I wasn't really waiting for anyone.

Awakened by sound on the balcony.
Calling to me, inviting me.
Slowly I rise as if in a trance.
Drawn to the sound.
Fearfully I open the doors,
Bathed in the moonlight...
Waiting for the unknown.

/me waves at Lindy- fellow Beagle fan it seems :) (Tamsin, like his other works, have a deep sadness in them. Wonder what Mr. Beagle was like? I don't know anythng about him- just that i enjoyed his works growing up). {"There is in certain living souls, a quality of loneliness unspeakable..."}

@ Kaimi- Eek! Yes I know - freaked me out too :eek:

Not "was", "is". Mr. Beagle is still with us, thank gods. (You scared me, so I googled him).

A melancholy tone, indeed...but from what I know of the man and his life (very little, aside from his books) he is happy and fulfilled. I think he is, perhaps, a bit like Ray Bradbury. A happy man, whose work simply somehow seems to breathe, even in its happiest moments, a sigh of regret that the party must end all too soon.

I did not know he still lived. I guess I have read him in the past and it just seemed so long ago. Glad I was mistaken. Really loved Simak too- side note.
