A Bicycle Built for Two

Jerremy and I had a relaxing night -- we needed it. We sort of search hopped and landed at Backwoods Bicycle Trail. The bikes are free to use. Just hop on one. Since I jumped onto the bike first, at first Jerremy thought I was steering the bike and was impressed that I wasn't driving us off cliffs and into rivers. But the bike steers itself -- you just have to sit back and enjoy the ride. The pictures on my post today were taken by Jerremy.

There is actually a lot to do here (for some reason I think we went skiing here a while back) -- you can bike, ride horses and take a balloon ride. That is what we are doing in the picture below -- taking a romantic balloon ride. Except the balloon did not steer itself and I made the mistake of sitting in it first -- it made me the driver. I struggled so hard to keep us going in one direction that I'm surprised Jerremy didn't get motion sickness. But, since he didn't have to drive, he had a chance to take pictures and I love his pictures. <3

You must be this tall to ride this ride.

This is me waiting for other Plurkers (Add me!) to arrive at Prim Hearts for a Plurkers' Field Trip tonight at 6:30 PM SLT. I know I am early, but I wanted to find decent parking. I have my balloon and I am all ready to go on the rides....even the really scary ones I usually avoid in RL.

I can't see Uranus.

And you can't see mine either since I am facing the camera. OMG I am 12 years old, I know. But who can resist anus jokes when you have your very own solar system diorama circling you? I know I can't.

You know? Out of the the eight annual science fair projects I did in grade school, not one of them was a spray-painted-Styrofoam-ball solar system. I may be the only person in America who didn't make one.

So where did I get this one? I needed something to distract me while I waited for Jerremy to log in yesterday, so I did the For the Love of Science Hunt. It was only 50 stores and I am a science nerd, so I thought I'd pick up some cool stuff. This solar system was part of the first hunt gift (starting point -- It's Cake). 

Just don't go around with Uranus showing. - it might get laggy.

Baby's First Avatar

Ever since LL announced that children are allowed on the grid, our son, Blocky, has been pestering us to sign up for an account. I decided to show him the ropes today.

It turns out that just like Jerremy, he is a whiz at building! But, he is also a prim hog. I guess the apple doesn't fall far from the tree! Sadly, he is an awful typist. Luckily there is SL voice, which will be quite handy once he learns to talk.

His profile is so adorable! It says:

*:-.,_,.-:*'´ `*.¸.*´`'*:-.,_,.-:* 
New to SL, exploring and learning the game.
Drama free zone! Just here to have fun. Save the drama for your momma!
I'm not here for romance or a partner.
RL is RL and SL is SL.
Don't be shy - IM me. I don't bite...unless you want me to.  Mommy told me not to.
My IMs cap daily, so send a notecard.
Don't mess with me! You have been warned!!!!
If you have a problem or any issues with my parents, speak to me!
I am not interested in renting space at your mall.
*:-.,_,.-:*'´ `*.¸.*´`'*:-.,_,.-:*

For our baby, Blocky, there is no AFK...it's GDC (getting diaper changed) so if he doesn't IM you back right away, please be patient. 

With Apologies to Katy Perry...

SL Girls

I know a place
Where the grass is really sculpty
Fast, Easy, Fun
There's somthin' 'bout the Linden water
Sippin' prim champagne
AFK under the palm trees
The boys
Break their mice
Try'na cam a little sneak peek (at us)

You could travel the interwebs
But nothing comes close
To our island coasts
Once you party with us
You'll be falling in SLove
Ooooooh oh ooooooh

SL, SL Girls
We're unforgettable
Cleavage layers
Flex-y hair on top
Pixel skin
So hot
We'll melt your graphics card
Ooooooh oh ooooooh

SL, SL Girls
We're undeniable
Friends, FRAPS, FIC
We got it on lock
Mainland represent
Now put your hands up
Ooooooh oh ooooooh

TP to the beach
We don't mind sand in our Maitreyas
We freak
In my sim
Snoop Doggy Dog on the music stream

SL, SL Girls
We're unforgettable
Cleavage layers
Flex-y hair on top
Pixel skin
So hot
We'll melt your graphics card
Ooooooh oh ooooooh

The original song is here! Many thanks to my Plurk friends (Add me!) who helped me think of some words to substitute (in particular, 'f' words)!
