Oh dear, it took forever, but I finally managed to assemble the appropriate avatar (or the appropriate inappropriate avatar):

I wonder if this qualifies me for a Trout rating? Or a Pep rating? Either way it's off to bed soon for this craniopod. ;)
In that latex outfit you could be a macrocephalic alien and I wouldn't notice.

Pep (Considering an alternative rating system based on looks and grammatical excellence, modified by an inverse function of susceptibility to over-emotional over-reaction)

Good morning all you fellow snow-bound Threadites. :)

What'd I miss yesterday?

Ghosty's art was well worth going to see. But...didst mine ears deceive me, or was there a rumor of an orgy? Sheesh...people always wait until I leave.

Zena/Key/Rio: Erm....eep?
/me scurries around looking for his noob avatar. :D

Mari: Thanks for the update. I love hearing about your adventures!

Honey: Grats! I have visions of Devil Wears Prada dancing in my head now for some reason....

Amara: It was good to see you last night. I LOVED that outfit!!

Guess that's it! Time to "be productive" for a while. (at least 10 minutes...)

Oh...and I managed to catch Slumdog Millionaire.

Most excellent flick. It deserved every accolade it has received. If you haven't seen it yet, consider a little RL excursion for this one. :)

space saving- took out the words because the pics were just too good to take out (and they won't even let me keep all the pics).

the jars - clever and surreal and totally cool. i am going to visit that sim.

the lady in red has a FAB avatar. so pretty.

LOL @ super soaker story. even as an adult, i think it would be totally fun to have a water fight!

the band - next time you kids perform, i would love an invitation to the show. :D

as usual, excellent pics and excellent narration. sounds like you had a fab weekend in SL.

Good morning, Threadies! Yay, a snow day for me!

Sorry breakfast's a bit late...I stayed up late last night, and slept in this morning.

/me waves at the other threadies

G'night an g'mornin, everybuggy!

Okay, this weekend was over th' top even f'r me.

On Friday, I got my chance to explore the remodeled Tableau, back from its demolition at the hands of giant hamsters. It's another beautiful version of the sim. I tink I still prefer the desert Tableau to this, but it beats the dark New Orleans Tableau, in my opinion.

There are a thousand places that are good f'r piccies there, though. Here was one.



I stopped back in Tableau on Saturday, an did some other exploring in places familiar an otherwise. At the end of the day, I happened over to AM Radio's latest build, The Space Between The Trees, and happened upon a dance party.

Here I am dancin with Blue Linden and Phaylen fairchild, jes a coupel of the folks in attendance.



Later in the party, Teagan Linden showed up. She came equipped with one of the 'Wonder Soak'Em 50s" I made, which AM Radio immediately commented on. I passed one his way too. his comment about my soaker gun?

"I think SL is finished. the coolest thing to be made in SLhas been accomplished. I think we're done here. someone turn the light out on your way out."

here he is, looking oh so suave with the ol' soaker.



I could not believe he said that about some little thing I made, given the incredible stuff he's done!

Sunday started out with meetings. There were some important ones in Bay City I hadda be at. I am pleased to say things went very well there, too.

Some time after this, my friend Alisha showed me what she's been doing with Madcow Cosmos' band bot avatars (if you like cool avvies and don't have a band bot, rush over to his place in Lie!). I discovered someting interesting about them too: they make the old Burning Life 2008 Blurtophones work! Armed with this knowledge, I brought back to life my favorite noise making thing ever made in SL. Me and my brother took to the streets, in my miniature Primouth Fury, to share the news. I guess not everyone wanted to know. ;-)



One person who *did* want to know was my sis, who loved the blurtophones more than me, I tink. You see, these are musical instruments with a guitar, a horn, and a drum, with several loops each, and each syncs with the others. Allowing you to make interesting music together. The band bots improve upon the idea and allow even more loops -- but I like the ol' blurtophone. It means still being myself *and* making a racket. What isn't to love?

Once my sis was around, though, we hit the stage in Shermerville for a concert. Granted it was just us, but we had plenty of fun entertaining each other. :-D



An that's the weekend!


Wow, Mari!! When you say you've had a busy weekend, I know it's true!

Those pics are fabulous!!! Tableau looks really cool.

(re: the blurtophones -- did anyone else think about "If I Ran the Circus" or "How the Grinch Stole Christmas" and all the gizmos described therein??)

And on that note, Happy Birthday, Dr. Seuss.

Honey- congrats!!! (and Jerboa, lol on the "Devil Wears Prada"!!)

I know you enjoy the modeling, but this gig sounds like it will be really useful and great for networking. :)

That's my thought Mo :)

I'm sure I'll end up working my butt off, but that's fine. My boss is cool (not like Meryl Streep in Prada...lol), I have my own office (!), and of course, there's the prestige factor. I'll meet tons of people that I haven't and get to know the ones I've met even better.

Thanks for the congrats and well wishes all! :)

I skip the thread for one day, and yikes!

Lil, that pole-dancing picture is scandalous!

By the way, that little guy, who looks like he's ASLEEP in front of me... everyone knows he's a bot. (And I didn't even see him until the photo.)

LOL

And Honeybear, congrats on the InStyle gig!
