My Second Life Or My Only Life...

Hi all :-)

I haven't posted in a while...so I'm due I guess. I love to write so why not here :-) Writing, other than Second Life has always been my passion. I've written a couple of children's books and I'm sadly still waiting for the news that it's NOT going to be published. LOL! But that's okay...I loved doing it and I have family who will enjoy these books for a long time to come :-)

Okay back to why I'm here...boy I can really get off track and begin yakking about much to do about nothing :-)

My life here has been extemely enriched by the people who I have met and been in contact with since my membership began. I find myself looking forward to my life in SL almost as much as I enjoy doing things in real life. Did you notice how I said ALMOST?

Although my houses, land and entire inventory mean an awful lot to me, and my life here almost feels as real as the one that I'm living when not online...I do know that although all of us sitting in front of our computers are real and very much alive...we are not the gorgeous sexy avies who are wandering around SL. At least I'm not...not any more any way :-) I'd trade my body and face in for my avatar any day of the week. Wouldn't we all? Not that I'm NOT drop dead gorgeous...ahem...CHOKE... but my avie is cuter, leaner and a lot better dressed...LOL!

Oh and I don't own a house on a tiny island surrounded by azure water and calm ripples that I can stare at forever. How I wish! LOL! Nor do I have the chance to hunt and purchase the palace or mansion of my dreams in RL...sigh.

Although I have all this glorious fantasy, I still realize that when it comes down to my life as ME in the RW... I'm having a darn good time doing both. I enjoy my SL...no I love it; but I also love my real world. I love to travel and see the new things that I can really reach out and touch :-)

Why did I write all this? Was I trying to put down people who make SL their first life? NO WAY...NOPE! I think what it all boils down to is that I was trying to convince myself that I'm not a SL addict. ROFL! If that were true would I be sitting here trying to convince myself? Have a wonderful week everyone, and keep up the dream... I Love it :-)

I'm so glad you are having a good time, VzNevada! Are you still in Blumfield, or have you moved elsewhere?

Yes I'm still in Blumfield and thriving :-)) I also have a tiny island... not big at all, in Ambulyx. I love it. I'm constantly changing my houses, decor, scenery...but this is what it's all about :-) Right? LOL!

How about you? What have you been up to here? Nice to talk to you.

But SL *IS* addictive, they even admitted it in their google ad.

I have the idea...know how to edit etc. It's those coordinates that are killing me. I have yet to get walls to match and not show seams and bleeds...It's frustrating. LOL! I even learned how to do transparent windows on one side and hide the outside :-)) Nice to talk to you :-)
