Updates and Dilemmas

*sigh*

Sweetie has issues with the new update. And I'm not doing it until he finds all of the bugs.

Elf Liberation Day


Winding up the day's festivities at the drum circle at ElvenGlen market.......a perfect end to a festive day.

Australian Censorship of SL?

Elf Liberation Day

First Place winner: Jesica Slade


Speed build for Elf Liberation Day



Golda and I tied for third place. She made fantasy food and my project was a little more autobiographical.........


The theme was "What High Fantasy means to me.." It was simple...where else can I fall in love with a dragon, create fantastic swords and become a fierce warrior? Oh, and do the 'YMCA" as a pixie........that picture is on the other side.







Blade and Mysti discuss the 'goings on' at the speed build.


Speed builds are always fun and always laggy occasions. There is a regular speed build for Elf Circle members every Thursday at 5pm SLT



Elf Liberation Day


Our most favorite pastime is the dance :-)

The Thawed Universe of PetGirl

http://tinasuniversum.blogspot.com/

I am not much of a blog follower but Tina's blog is one that I love. For those who are not familiar with PetGirl.......well, you are missing a treat. Just visit the many events of the Swedish sims or click this link above and you will be hooked by her wonderful personality.

Today Tina's blog touched on a subject that I have gone over in my mind many times, and also discussed with my parter at length. Our Avatars and why we have created our 'selves' the way that we have. Balthier and I probably look like the 'odd couple' to most. He is a dragon....and I sometimes Drow, sometimes Fae, sometimes Goth Pixie and yes......sometimes even human. To us this choice makes perfect sense because this is fantasy after all....and Balthier has commented on the silliness of coming to a world such as SL to create the 'perfect' appearance...and I have countered this by commenting that perhaps this image of perfection is the most 'fantastic' of all.....

As Tina writes in her blog: "Today I have a little rash on my face. Terrible! But I can hide myself in my computer screen..........."

Birthday Boingy Fun!!!

Boingy Drums, Galactic Noise........musical instruments to play...musical avis......this place rocks!

Happy Birthday SL!!




I'm so out of touch and pay attention to 'nada'.......my friend Moundsa IMed me two days ago thinking that I had an exhibit at SL6BD and I didn't even know what he was talking about, so I slipped on my wings and staggered over (um...flew over?) to check out the various builds.

Summer Night's Dream........

Builder's competion at the sandbox in the Arda sim --
theme was "Summer Nights Dream" with a silent
auction included..........many wonderful things to see here.
I have bid on a few things and hopefully I'll come away
with something very pretty to decorate my spot at the Glimmering.

Fractopia Sim


This is the greatest sim that has all kind of examples of fractal experiments that are so beautiful.

How do they do this?



It's things like this that have gotten me interested in scripting again......

Wonderment

I love visiting the Sinza lab






Storm in a Teacup........

Waiting for takeoff :-)

An awesome ride.........


through the storm.......


and then spilling out into the sim...

Frank Lloyd Wright Museum



Still recovering from the 'fruity head of joy', I took in the Frank Lloyd Wright museum in SL

Fruity Head of Joy............

So.
I'm sitting on the couch with my coffee, reading the IMs that come through and thinking of worlds to explore......and I hit a link in the Builder's Brewery window......
Once I land I am invited to wear the 'Fruity Head of Joy' and join the dance.


Of course once the dance is over I am stuck in the pose, which is normal for me.
I've grown to expect that reality that I am destined to be stuck in animation :-)

A wonderful way to start my SL day....with my friends Mysti and Blade :-)
