19 Or So/365 - Practice

Last year I had a lot of fun making my Christmas card, and I'm already scouting locations for this year. These pictures were taken at Callie Cline's winter-y sim Stereo Vogue. I like the whitish washed-out background that contrasts with the dark hair and face. Although if I were to do these shots over again, I would ditch the purse. And btw, this skin is the new Tyrrany skin. I quite like it a lot. Ranks up there for me with Pink Fuel and Lelutka Eclat. Take care!

17/365 - Bend.... And Snap!

Here is one reason I think Olive Juice is cool: (Any Cosmo girl would know...)

Please do not tell me you don't know the Bend and Snap.

16/365

Wow. I've made it to day 16! Although I started at.... 5 maybe? Still pretty good for my track record. I saw Slaughter City mentioned by Marleen Vaughan and put it on my list of places to check out. I finally remembered to do so tonight. Looked pretty nifty from what I saw, I plan to go back as I didn't have a lot of time to explore tonight. Looking at the map it seems like the neighboring sims are all related but I'll find out more tomorrow. Also I didn't get anything cool like a slurl, but you can do a map search for Slaughter City and find it that way. More to come on this one. Take care!

P.S. Yes, I like to wear my clothes for several days at a time. When it takes me 45 minutes and 500+ lindens to put it together, I like to get my use out of it before it disappears in the inventory. Ha! *Maybe* I'll have something different on tomorrow. Or not.

15/365 - Let It Snow!

It's Winter at The Loft! Bethany has been a busy little elf these days. Colleen, too. Be watching for a Subscribo notice soon, she has lots of Christmas goodies to share. (Sneak over there now, you'll see some of it on display already.) Happy day!

14/365 - Two Questions And A Picture

I'd like to know if anyone has an answer to this: When I right click/edit an object that does NOT belong to me, (to see prim count, creator, etc) the edit window is empty. It never populates. Why oh why? This happened to me some time ago, but rectified itself and now has reemerged. This makes it SO inconvenient when shopping. I'm using the Emerald client. Am I the only one in this boat?

Also, a rl question: If anyone has experience getting a barely two year old to wear prescription glasses will you IM me inworld? I would love to hear your words of wisdom and lessons learned.

Check out Oberon Onmura's Storm Cells at Cetus and get your own cell named for you. The new Cetus makes me crazy with the alpha channel construction, I much preferred the old Cetus. Sigh. Oberon doesn't disappoint, though.

Happy day!

13/365 - Inventory Sorting

A big THANKS to my awesome Loft customer Naomi, who let me get to a stopping point in my Inventory Abyss. I really hate it when I KNOW I own something, but can't remember it's name. Consider it lost at that point. Because unlike you organized types, I find things in my inventory with keyword searches. All stored in my head. And when a black tutu has neither the word "black" or the word "tutu" in it... how am I supposed to find it?? Pfff. I *did* find countless folders with names like: 'New Outfit 10/10/09' and 'New Outfit 8/5/09' and 'Next Outfit'. Yep, that's my filing system for ya. Because when I see something I love, I'm faced with two possible scenarios: 1) Come back and get it when I'm ready to wear it, but forget where I saw it. Or 2) Buy it and lose it in my inventory. So the logical thing to do is to make a 'New Outfit' folder. See? Although I admit, inventory rummaging can be fun. Several times I said to myself: "What the hell was I thinking?" and "I hope I didn't pay for that". But I also had several pleasant discoveries as well.

Maybe Nina will let me join her team? LOL! (Of course I'm kidding.)

Happy day!

11 and 12/365 - Missing Mile

This dark rural community is one of my favorite places these days. I like how the RP is very laid back. And since the people make their own stories, you never know what you might find. Let's see... I witnessed a hold-up at Waffle Hut. I must say the manager and the waitress held their ground quite well. While I sat at a booth eating my pumpkin pie, they were facing off with their assailant. He eventually ran away. Then there was the time I walked through the trailer park. A drug deal gone south led to a thug holding a girl at gunpoint. Her two friends were trying to negotiate with him. As I recall he ended up leaving too. He sped off in his car, and then crashed into a building. In OOC chat he blamed it on the lag. Yeah right.

This picture was taken outside of a motel room rented by an old drunk named Clarence. Clarence has a beer belly and a bald head. He also has lines of coke on a table and toilet paper dragging from his shoe. He was quite a show.

Missing Mile isn't only an RP community. It's also residential, where you can live in a motel, trailer park or shack. All within walking distance of the town square.

Unfortunately, the town square has been vandalized. :(

Missing Mile is full of culture and entertainment. This "live entertainment" establishment is a fine choice.

Happy day!
