It’s time to do what I did last year and review my virtual life over the past year, maybe make some predictions, and make some resolutions. 2010: Mistletoe In Review January 2010 opened with me in OpenLife Grid and mostly out of Second Life (or so I thought). I had big plans to open up … Continue reading »

You May Want To Uninstall Emerald
I personally find it very disheartening to read what I did at Modular Systems’ (makers of the Emerald Viewer) blog today. In summary: This idea was to target a blog owned by a creator of a malicious viewer, and boast of the traffic Emerald has captured. The method for doing this was to add links … Continue reading »
Make Your Prims Count Part 2: Lighting
Welcome to my second post on ways to cut back on prim use for your home, shop, or club. Today I’m going to do a bit on lighting. It’s kind of surprising how prim-intensive lighting can get, especially in objects like candles and torches. I once saw a wall torch with twenty-two prims, and can’t … Continue reading »
You all deserve better…
I’d forgotten the rule when it comes to new ISPs: add a week. Between there and here I was able to piggyback a wee bit from the neighbors; I even got Clover logged on once or twice to take care of rent and such. It’s increasingly likely that I won’t be back at Open Life. … Continue reading »
Planned disappearance from face of planet

“Have you been sick?”
How you know you’ve been out of touch too much or too long: someone asks you that. I like lots of the people I’ve met on OL. I love building there, too; I finally have the family manor-house I’ve always wanted, but never had the money and prim allowance to make in SL. Both RL … Continue reading »
So many kinds of pissed.
I might just give up on OL altogether. Yeah, I know, here comes the fuckload of vulture comments. Fucking save them, I don’t want to play in your grid either. Tomorrow’s my last day at my RL job, and my RL boss has decided to take the opportunity to maintain control over me one last … Continue reading »
My Tiny Piece of Heaven
I finally got some long-awaited pictures of my parcel in OL, which I call Northstar. The North Star, my wee pub. Click any image to see larger. Join me next time when I give a tour of my house. In the meantime, you’re welcome to visit Northstar in the sim of Merina anytime: http://url3dx.com/openlife/Merina/178/200/1551
While OL Logins are down…
Where Everybody Knows My Name
I don’t talk much about RL here because I have other blogs/places to do that. But let it suffice to say that today in RL was an emotional whirlwind to match the blustery weather outside. It started with dragging myself unwillingly out of bed after a pep-talk from Himself, continued with a physically demanding work … Continue reading »
