Hey! The February SL Blogger party is next weekend and I hope to see as many of my fellow bloggers there as possible! I will be there with bells on!
I remember my first blogger party - I was ridiculously nervous. There was a choice of themes that we had to vote on beforehand - robots or 1920's gangster. The robot theme won, but I look cuter in flapper dresses than metal boxes, so I dressed 1920's anyway. I am certain that no one besides the darling Looker Lumet even knew I was at the party because I was so stupidly shy at it. I talked to Looker and to a plant. I am no longer friends with the plant, but I still adore Looker!
Since then though, I have grown into volunteering to host one! Yup - I am host for the April soirée! It is tentatively set for Sunday, April 20 from Noon until 3 PM SLT. (I will have more information for you as we get closer to the date.) I am hosting the party at my home - the Girl Wonderful Land estate - since I have lots of space with which to play. (And speaking of space, my former BF and sim neighbor , f00 keeps complaining - in jest I hope - that I have no landscaping and I am ruining the look of neighborhood. But I love open space - it has so much potential. And I have all those prims not wasted on things like trees and flowers. :-P )
Anyhoo, I thought I would stick a big dance floor in the yard, have a DJ on the upper level patio, get a dance ball, set up a bar and host the April party! There are also fire pits and a beach for those who want to sit around and relax. And you can visit the kissing garden that my SLignificant other, Jerremy, built for us.
And I am going to have "Hello my name is..." name tags for everyone and maybe we'll vote on the best one and have a prize of some sort. If you are coming and want a name tag beforehand so you can really get creative, IM me and I will send one to you. Remember that your name actually floats above your head at all times, so you can go wild with the 7 letters you have to work with on these tags.
If you blog about Second Life and have not joined the SL Blogger group, IM Zoe Connolly in-world so that you can sign up. You'll hear about the parties and other things and get to know a group of really fun people. (I have sent out lifelines to the group more than once about technical issues with my blog and have received great support and help.)
And, if all of this persuades just one non-blogger to start a Second Life blog, then this post was worth it.
I made two versions of this t-shirt - one with the writing on the front and one with the writing on the back - using the SL Profiles t-shirt creator gadget and Photoshop. It is ridiculously fun.
