Hay, now!**

**Yes, I meant to spell "hay" that way. :-P
[This post is about the Big, Bad Blogger Challenge topic of the day: Describe Your Perfect SL Day.]

What? It could happen.

On my perfect SL day, I wake up to the pixel sun shining through the windows. I roll over and give Jerremy a soft kiss. He stirs and we have a quick roll in the hay.
I let him go back to sleep. I quickly shower, dress and wander out to the garden to decide what to do that day. Suddenly, I received an IM from Linden Lab - the last parcel of the sim we live on that we do not own has been abandoned. They want to know if we want it. No charge since they aren't going to do anything with it anyway. Fabulous!

Next, I open up the fashion feeds and see the most perfect, beautiful clothing, shoes and hair. I spend the morning shopping. As I sit down to lunch in a little cafe, I learn that someone (wink) has declared me to be a member of the FIC. I giggle and shake my head.


Looking toward the top of my screen I see my Linden balance scrolling higher and higher. How satisfying! That means the chicken birth control script I developed is selling like hotcakes.


After a light prim lunch, I TP back home where Jerremy is building. He asks me to turn on voice. Happy, happy, joy, joy! We have a quick roll in the hay.

I run down to my office/blog HQ and check my laptop. I find a long, beautifully written email apology co-signed by everyone who has ever griefed our sim or Starting Point. I am touched.

Jerremy and I go to the yard and build, landscape and talk. We realize that it is getting late in the afternoon and we have to get ready for the party we are hosting that evening. I need a costume and some food for the buffet. Jerremy decorates the party area while I make a quick shopping trip for a costume and prim food. When I get home, I show Jerremy my costume. He likes it so much that we have another roll in the hay before dinner.


Dinner is a lovely barbeque cooked by Jerremy. Some friends come over to enjoy the meal and pleasant conversation with us.
Party time is nearing, so we run upstairs to change into our costumes.

Linden Lab IMs me. They heard we are having a party and will not only have a customer support person on stand by, but they are dedicating every available resource to assure we have no lag. The entertainment arrives. Who knew that DJ AM would be available on such short notice or that he had a SL avatar? Guests start arriving. People admire my buffet. Chat is on fire with witty banter. The party is a great success.
Jerremy and I go inside the house, smiling and talking about the party.

Then, we....well, you know.
