My Avatar is a Leo, Too!

Almost exactly one year ago today I sat in front of my PC for 48 straight hours, having the time of my life.

This frightened the bejesus out of me, as I had always assumed I would only ever feel that way during some sort of illegal drug binge. After I pried myself away from my PC long enough to shower and eat, I went back and it has been an amazing ride ever since.

Happily, my friends and family never had to stage an intervention. (It would have aired on A&E, of course and started with the words, "Tymmerie, what we have here is a bunch of people who love you like crazy..." )

So, wow....today is my Rez Day! 1 Year! And just like my first year in RL, I learned to walk!!!!

I feel like I should write something epic and profound but I have no idea what. So I will just tell you things that I have learned about Second Life in that span of time:

1. SL is not all about sex!!
2. SL is not all about shopping!!
3. A face light is a must-have beauty accessory. You can take my face light away from me when you pry it from my cold, dead hands.
4. SL isn't actually addictive, it is just that I have just as long of a 'to do' list in SL as RL. But unlike my RL to do list, the SL list never includes cleaning the bathroom or emptying the dishwasher, so I'd rather hang out in the pixel world sometimes.
5. Don't let anyone kid you - you need a high end gaming PC to really enjoy SL.
6. Don't talk to strangers or you will end up married and deliriously happy. :-P

I have such excitement for my second year in SL!!! Stick with me and I will try to entertain you with stories of how it goes! We have so much to do and to share with you -- for example, Jerremy and I are thinking of opening some dorms for newbies, an art gallery and of course being condo landlords. I will also try to convince Jerremy to do more guest blogs!

Thank you, Dear Readers for sticking by me and reading my ramblings! I will try to keep you entertained throughout my second year!
