just ignore and let this one die

I meant in world and on forum (since I can't be on Internet at work any longer). Course if I had refreshed the page I'd have seen a bunch of new message between mine.

Seeing no one online or in forum, I just went to bed, as in sleep. At 9:40pm.

Wow, what a morning. I slept late and lost over an hour that I could have been in SL. I grabbed my laptop and pulled it into bed with me. Then the phone started ringing like mad. My mother is comatose in the morning so if I was quick I could get it before she really woke up. Instead I got all flustered trying to put the computer aside and stand up in the same movement. My bed is kind of high and my legs got all wrapped up in the blankets.

Mom was already knee deep in conversation by the time I got there. My little sister was also up, so I had to make her breakfast.

It turned out the phone was for my mother anyway. Her friend had gotten all excited about who knows what and forgot that it was only 6:30 in the morning.

ANYWAY

I get back to the sandbox in SL and realize there is a problem with the skybox I'm building. I have only just enough time to fix the error and extend the rafters for the rest of the roof and the dormer.

I *thought* I was going to finish the whole roof, raise the second floor and put the first floor underneath, put in the little roof for the entryway, and take pictures.

There never was a possibility that I'd finish by the tour on Saturday, but I want to get it to a point where you can see where it's going.

Tonight and tomorrow morning I have to get those things done.

I *did* set up the parachute jump and buy two trees for my platform. One has a swing for two. It turns out to have many romantic poses in it, but it doesn't swing!

In case you didn't notice, I'm *very* excited about the tour. My house is listed just after Gabriele's, so can just walk east when you leave hers (turn left when you walk out her door) and you'll get to see the tree cafe, Stonehenge, the ships, Brenda's house, and then mine.

Good morning, everyone.

Doughnuts are up and more coffee is coming.

What's all this 'morning' business? It's 2:15pm here and I've just finished today's shift at the coalface, having got up at 4am. Never mind breakfast; I'm pondering something chilled and alcoholic right now

oh, didn't realize the houses tour was set already

Josh sent a draft listing to the participants.

.

4am? ouch! I think I was just about going to sleep then.

The bar's open....what can I get for you?

/me reaches for a delicious looking round thing.

Guess I will not be able to be involved then.

Eek! 4 am!!! Unholy, ungodly, etc... what's a coalface?
And I offer Bloody Marys - with a dribble of sparkly water added- goes well at breakfast or lunch - assuming you got nothing important lined up for the rest of the day

Heeeereeee's Jerry! Muhahahahaha

Good morning everyone!

Tomorrow is a big deadline for a project at work, and I finished it last night. Yay Me!

So...*glances around curiously, his whiskers bouncing*...what'd I miss?

Re home tour, my home is available if I don't have to actually be there- it's just an average home, nothing all that excitng but all are welcome - the ArtisTree is pretty cool though- I will send Josh and LM I suppose. I wouldn't mind meeting peeps, it's just RL can get odd at times so don't want to commit to actually being there

Not much - the usual.

Pep (Celebrating this weekend then?)

hey lexxi, i just sent the draft schedule out to people i received notecards from for review. did i miss yours? you can still send me one today or resend if i lost it and i'll add it to the schedule but the final will be going out late friday night so if you can send it asap that would be good. you can pick up the form at the hangout by touching the sign or I'll try to send it to you later today in world. We've got 20+ houses on the tour schedule so should be fun!!

@seven: lol i'm so not ready for my own house either!!!

Yay!!! A rare Jerboa sighting... those critters are getting durn hard to locate!!!

I'll take a Salty Dog, please ma'am.

Hey! stay away from my doughnuts!

Oh, different round thing? Well, that's OK

Amaranthim .. if you can fill out the notecard available at the tour sign at the hangout, I can still add you. Final schedule will be going out Friday night so if you can get it back to me today sometime that would be great. No worries, if you can't be there but still want to participate ... some folks won't be able to be around but are still opening up their homes.

My *house* is ready but the new one for my skybox isn't. So I'm scrambling for a little extra showpiece.

Did you get my IM this morning, Josh? I couldn't send you a notecard because SL wasn't letting me save notecards!

.

Comin' right up....




(I presume you meant that and not these: )

Some interloper started posting pics and talking dirty.

OMG I could SO go for a bloody mary or five right now.

Yes. The rule is... all dirty talking is supposed to be directed to me in PM for my approval.

Thanks, Claire!
This will make these phone conferences much easier to endure.

Hrm. I think I'll start with... *points* ...that shelf there. Then I'll start on Amara's Bloody Marys

This band were played on Radio 1 today, and I fell in love with the first song. The Low Anthem: "To Ohio". Real shades of Simon & Garfunkel, circa "The Sound of Silence". If you need to relax, this should do it -

Also their song, "Charlie Darwin" -
