It’s Heating Up at Tres Chic for Summer

It’s Heating Up at Tres Chic for Summer

I'm generally not a summer person. In real life I am complaining every 5 mins about the heat, the bugs, the sweating  sorry, glowing! In Second Life though you don't get any of that you just get the real good stuff! No having to work out for a beach ready body...these pixels are beach ready [...]

Summer Sun Brings a Perfect Place

Summer Sun Brings a Perfect Place

For the first time in about 5 years I moved to a tropical sandy sim. I've had forest/grass sims but I figured a change was as good as a rest and for summer blogging the sandy sim would be much better.  It was a good omen as I was excited to hear that I've been [...]

If You Can’t Say Anything Nice…Don’t Say Anything At All

If You Can’t Say Anything Nice…Don’t Say Anything At All

There's been a series of essays produced for a radio show that I listen to while I'm at work called 'Being Human'. People from actors to philosophers are asked 'What Makes Us Human?' and their essay is delivered on the radio and then discussed with the host of the show. It's fascinating to hear all [...]

Turn Your Face Away, From the Garish Light of Day…And Listen to the Music of the Night

I Get What I Want…

I Get What I Want…

I Get What I Want! I wish this was some declaration of how life always turns out the way I had planned. No such luck unfortunately.  There are lots of things I want...some material, some emotional and some more altruistic and I fall woefully short most of the time in all three categories. Does that [...]

A Year Goes By – My First Year of Blogging

A Year Goes By  – My First Year of Blogging

Wow! It's Sunday again huh? Where did THAT week go? In fact where did that YEAR go? Today is the anniversary of 1 year of blogging on the WordPress platform. I had blogged previously on blogspot but I really didn't take it very seriously and I was erratic to say the very least.  I initially [...]
