Here is a list and SLurls of the final twelve art and artist selections for projects given a 40×40 m, 2000 prim space at Burning Life.

Spa towels … and er, surprises.

Never a dull moment. Goodnight. I’m not really here until Tuesday. Oh. It is Tuesday now, so okay. ;=)


Sooo very beautifully funny …!

Sooo very beautifully funny …!

“First life is going to be a game changer …” *laughs out LOUD* Architect Keystone Bouchard (the FL Jon Brouchoud) of archvirtual using xtranormal with a wonderful, very, very funny script on businessing in VR. Truly priceless! Jon also offers some great tutorial information, here. *still laughing* “You’re thinking like such a di-na-sir. ya-ya!” (xtranormal, [...]


Typerin’ a lettah.

Typerin’ a lettah.

Dear Fussy, See you Tuesday when we get back from time offline. (Hope you are having a good time not playing golf.) *laughs* I am practicing building my typing speed as you can see below. The book said I will be typering 35 words a minute in no time. I cannot believe they count spellering, [...]


It’s Fall!

It’s Fall!

I get so psyched about Autumn … truly my favorite season filled with crisp cool first life air, a wide variety of my fave fruit (apples!), yummy warm colors … and lots of holidays! Oh man, I love holidays! Also, in this case maybe a time to renew the bloggering spirit a little bit and [...]


one year.

one year.

Well, yeah. One year. *big huge smile* A wonderful year filled with fun, laughter, and creativity! Rarely any drama, and none whatsoever brought about by either of us. How cool is that? Pretty friggin’ cool! ;=)


blue [silence] part 1

blue [silence] part 1

I haven’t been inworld much the past week or so, but when I am, I’ve been spending my time wisely … lol. I decided I wanted a “blue velvet” room for Folly, so I am making a three part series of videos shown from that room’s perspective. This one has lots of mistakes (what else [...]


Whoopo … forgot this one.

Whoopo … forgot this one.

I wasn’t sure I was even going to keep this one up at the tube, but so far, so good. Just so many mistakes … yikes. But still okay, I guess. Learnin’ new thangs all the time. ;=)


Who are we, anyway?

Who are we, anyway?

Those who wanted to read this post in its entirety have likely read it by now, so I am putting it away. There will be no more discussion, dramatics, or thinking related to this issue again. I am not here to play games, hurt, deceive, or respond to cryptic messages. I have always wanted to [...]


Crazy … like a … something … machinima.

Crazy … like a … something … machinima.

I have been buildering our new house at Folly all week and Doc has been attacked by the snifflies so we thought we’d take some time out and visit Flashmans … *laughs* We are nothing if not consistent. I couldn’t resist making a machinima, and using this great song by Gnarls Barkley that my son [...]

…editing practice, tractors, buildering, and stuff

…editing practice, tractors, buildering, and stuff

*laughs* This week’s SLife has been incredibly quiet. Not such a bad way to be when first life is filled to the brim with stuff. My short time inworld offers a nice refuge, as it should. ;=) I had a chance to use some old pictures and continue my practice editing on an odd sort [...]

Song of the week (and video!): “Train Song” by Vashti Bunyan

Song of the week (and video!): “Train Song” by Vashti Bunyan

I love trains, among so many other vehicles in SL, as those of you who know me can attest to! And, I really love this old song by Vashti Bunyan (and recently covered by one of my fave musicians, Leslie Feist.) I really wanted to use the original tune for this one, though. I was [...]

Gaze (and Helen Fisher on Love)

I’ve been reading several fascinating books and articles by anthropologist Helen Fisher for a project I am working on in first life. If you haven’t seen her vids at TED, take a look. Helen Fisher at TED


Texture gathering with Emily Dickinson

Texture gathering with Emily Dickinson

I saw this beautiful cloud formation this morning in the first life texture gathering walk I do now on Wednesday mornings. Since I know this poem by heart, I actually got to gaze up to the sky and whisper it to myself. If anyone was looking out the window and watching, I am sure they [...]


Happiness is … Folly! ;=)

Happiness is … Folly! ;=)

I am not generally online until Tuesday, but our new sim came today … and her name is Folly. OMG! It’s so big … and we can make mountains and ride tractors and shoot fireworks every single day there! hahaaaa! I do believe my nesting instinct carries over to my virtual life as I lived [...]

Goodness! It turned out to be a pretty nice week after all. ;=)

Well, we’re selling stuff at the Yard Sale … remarkably enough. I even had a nice gent call and let me know I forgot to mark things! How sweet is that? Also, Sep came in for a visit. Huh? …. Okay, I’ll repeat it … SEP CAME IN FOR A VISIT! YAY! Yes, I was [...]

Not alone. ;=)

Not alone. ;=)

One of the very best things about occasionally displaying your emotions to the world *inserts grin* is that you find out, very much to your amazement, that you are not alone. In fact very far from it. Friendship is born at that moment when one person says to another, ‘What! You too? I thought I [...]


Best girlfriend? Where are you?

Best girlfriend? Where are you?

*laughs* God damn. Some days I miss September McKinney so bad I could cry. I am still not used to the fact she is no longer here and I am truly all alone inworld until Doc comes home. I am so socially retarded, I swear, that I have very few people to reach out to [...]

Song of the Week (and video!): Slave to Love … ;=)
