Happy Rez Day, Marlee!!

Today was my friend Marlee Theas' Third Rez Day! And she doesn't look a day over 2 1/2. Seriously. I had the pleasure of hosting her first Rez Day par-tay so this was an extra special event. The Rez Day girl danced around too much for me to get a really good picture of her. Especially, since she had a big ol' cupcake in her mouth. But I tried:

Isn't she adorable? Happy Rez Day, Marlee!!!

Can you hear me now?

A small meme was going around the SL Plurk community - Vocaroo. Chestnut Rau did a voice blog yesterday and she inspired me to do one myself.

I am preparing myself to do it now. I am a little worried since there doesn't seem to be any way to edit or redo a recording. Since it takes me about twelve tries to set up my voice mail message at work each time, I am making sure to set your expectations low.

OMG. I am such a dorkaziod. I am going to warn you right now that I was nervous and I had to turn the sound up high to get my voice to register. TURN YOUR VOLUME DOWN before you play this or I will blow out your ear drums. Enjoy?

Orange you glad you've evolved?

I have a problem. I need orange shoes. 

I need them to go with my lemon shirt that I thought was an orange when I hurriedly bought it. It is still citrus though, so it still kind of counts. See, I was going to do a post using the new freebie RC Cluster Orangey Mouth. I thought I would go head-to-toe citrus when I got dressed. But when I got to my toes, I had nothing to wear.

I decided I could deal with that for the moment and popped the orange slice into my mouth. But, (and no offense to the brilliant creator Redd Columbia) it uses one of the standard facial animations so that you can see the orange and it gave me "crazy face." I am too vain to show "crazy face." What to do? Pose with my hands covering part of my face, of course! I am sure they do that in pictures for the RL media all the time.
For the record, each and every time I eat an orange, I stick the peel in my mouth and smile at someone. I think the very first humanoid who ate an orange did the same thing. And now your avatar can be like a primitive, humanoid creature, too!

I was planning to greet Jerremy today with an orange-slice-smile. Hopefully he will still love me.

No pinching!

Happy St. Patrick's Day! My friend Haley Salomon gave me this ice cold, green, shamrock emitting beer! Mmmmm...shamrocks! I don't like the taste of beer in RL, but this prim stuff? Amazing! 

I'm standing here in Glendalough, one of the places LL is highlighting in the Showcase for the holiday. I wasn't sure what I was going to think about the Showcase when it first started, but I've used it to find some pretty fun places to explore. I do wish it featured smaller, more unique stores in the shopping category rather than just the big places everyone already knows about. But it's still very useful.

As you can also see, I'm wearing lots of green to guard against sadistic people who use the holiday as an excuse to get their jollies. Sadly, this twisted behavior goes on in both worlds. I wonder if pinching animations even exist in SL? Oh well, I'm not taking any chances.  

Seriously. If Jerremy wants me naked tonight, I'll put on green jewelry or a tattoo - quick as a flash! He can pinch me the other 364 days of the year.

Magically Delicious!

Hey! I'm not even Irish and I am in the St. Patty's celebratin' mood! But it is because I'm not of Irish descent that I need to guard against pinching even more! I will be certain to wear lots of green tomorrow. I might even carry a lucky charm.

I knew I should have changed outfits!


Jerremy and I lounged on a hammock on our beach yesterday, so when I logged in today, I was wearing a swimsuit. I was in a hurry to post this so I didn't change. I TP'd over to Rezzed TV Island - and practically landed on artist/blogger Nika Dreamscape of Wine and Roses Home Decor. This is a picture of me apologizing to Nika and admiring the area that will hold the next SL Blogger Meet-Up Party!

The party will be on Saturday, March 27th from 2:00-5:00 PM SLT at Rezzed TV Island. Write that down. It is being hosted by Nika and Rezzed TV owner Stuart Warf!

EVERYONE is invited! This means YOU! Come hang out and meet bloggers and blog readers as we all have a blast. There will be music, dancing, pool tournaments, boxing, drag races, 7 Seas Fishing, a Bunny Market, sky combat with lasers and more! 

Now if you'll excuse me, I really should change into something less comfortable.

SLord of the Dance

I am taking a break from shopping to explore and do a little jig over at St. Patrick's Day Town. There was an open dance ball next to these happy fellows and I joined in. Actually, there were a few open pose balls and I tried my best to get the people wandering around the area to join me for the picture. But only one person responded to my open chat call to dance - and he wanted to know how to get $Lindens. The Leprechauns? Sadly, they are bots. 

I totally would have jumped on a pose ball to take a fun photo if someone had asked me. Maybe it is my approach. This is how it went. You can tell me what I am doing wrong: "OMG! You guys - jump on one of these pose balls so I can take a picture for my blog! Hurry! RUN! No, I won't have the sex with you. Come on you guys! Please? I can't lend you 987L for a new skin. Come on!!! Pretty please? Jeebus!! Just get out of the frame then! MOVE!! Come on! You are either in or out of the picture. In or out. In or out. Just pick one and MOVE! Wait - why are you naked now? I can't take a pic with you naked!..."
