Male Bonding In SecondLife

When my genius and well adjusted husband Tomais was asked by his housemate what he, Dej and I were up to yesterday evening, he responded: "Male Bonding at its best in SecondLife, we are tinting our dicks."

At that point we could hear Tomais's housemate, a woman, breaking down in frantic laughter for some unknown reason. Women are strange, aren't they?

Before

Tomais and I had bought Dej a new Aeros Magnus and a pair of new Ispachi feet for his upcoming first life birthday and Tomais was helping Dej tint the new items while I said some encouraging words from time-to-time.

First things first, we of course had to start with tinting the cock.

I must say, I do think the boys did an excellent job!

After

For Podophiliacs

I am terribly proud of my new (correctly tinted) mesh feet and show them off whenever I can. Actually come to think of it, I haven't worn socks once since I got them tinted.

They look absolutely lickable, wouldn't you agree?

A Great Sunday

Tomais and I started off with a little cuddling, once Tomais had figured out how my bed worked and could show me...

The we went ahead and tinted my mesh-feet, Tomais achieved in five-ten minutes what I hadn't been able to do in three hours. I have now decided that if tinting is that easy I am also going to get mesh hands and ears. Tomais then went on to show me why it is so handy and how easy it is to create outfits in folders.

When we couldn't get into the Shoetopia fair, we decided to take a look at Tomais hangar, where the Ashdene Aviation Co keeps its fleet of airplanes and helicopters.

That made me really excited to go on my first air trip in SecondLife. Tomais is an excellent pilot and I felt very safe.

After a while weekend-SL acted up and we had to log off to be able to get into another plane, an amphibian airplane this time, which took us to Guyke's and Ziggy's parcel Paradijs and their home Villa Kakelbont.

We talked a while with Guyke and Dex, Guyke's and Ziggy's, sexy Greek neighbour, before Dex had to go to bed and Tomais had to seek cover because there was a tornado, with winds up to 70 mph, closing in on his first life home.

I suffered the twins, Ace and Max, before Guyke finally decided to put the little brats to bed. As I understand it having babies in SecondLife is much like the Zion chicken scam and all the other breedable animals. You have to pay loads of money every week to feed them and buy toys to keep them happy and contented.

Now, that wasn't even half of it, just the short version.

I also had a good and long conversation with the master builder of Second Pride the extremely huggable Jak Calcutt, who was busy getting the Second Pride sim ready for the Christmas parties and balls. His little helper Karl Karlchek also got a word in sideways when we allowed him...

Not to forget, I received a royal invitation to visit with the Queen of Netherlands etc., etc., etc. BM Oh (her majesty actually has more titles than I have given myself, but I will soon remedy that) together with my stunning new man. The queen is really eager to meet Tomais.
---

Please keep Tomais, his family and neighbours in your thoughts and wish them safety as tornadoes wreak havoc in the Midwest.

UPDATE 4:21PM: All is well with Tomais, his family and closest neighbours. The tornado passed within five miles of them and created a lot of damage but no reports of worse stuff, not yet.

Another Pet Peeve: Tinting Skin

Let me start this post by posting a (somewhat shortened) conversation I had with my dear friend Starlight Gentil today. The conversation reminded me of how long I have had this pet peeve.

s ţ α rℓ ίg ђ ţ: Hey Bock ! thank you for the invite ....  I'll be there ! yay !! hugs Star

Bock McMillan: YAY! You're so welcome sweetie, so happy we will see each other  again!

s ţ α rℓ ίg ђ ţ: :)))

Bock McMillan: Now begone please, I have to fit a bulge on my swimsuit and get the skin color  on the penis bit right... LOL

s ţ α rℓ ίg ђ ţ: OMG !! haha ...I'm picturing that !!

s ţ α rℓ ίg ђ ţ: Enjoy!!

Bock McMillan: ROFL - I cannot understand why the stores don't hand out cards with the RGB of the skins: Would that be so damned difficult?

s ţ α rℓ ίg ђ ţ: Haha... you do make me smile :)))

Bock McMillan: It's pet peeve of mine, drat the merchants

s ţ α rℓ ίg ђ ţ: Can you imagine telling peeps at work on Monday what you did on Sunday >?

Bock McMillan: LOL nooooooooooooo

s ţ α rℓ ίg ђ ţ: Exactlyyyy .haha. But these are such important issues here

s ţ α rℓ ίg ђ ţ: OK I'll be gone and let you start tinting ^^

Bock McMillan: It's a crazy world we are living in sweetie, can you believe we are here by choice?

s ţ α rℓ ίg ђ ţ: We're all weirdos .. who cares ..just enjoy

Bock McMillan: Haha will do! See you soon! Ohhh by the way this conversation is going on the blog....

s ţ α rℓ ίg ђ ţ: Oops ! ;D

Bock McMillan: ROFL

No, it's not my own "attachment"

Ever since I rezzed in SecondLife some 6 + years ago I have had a problem with tinting the skin of penises, or rather six days after I rezzed. Before that I was hanging around at the arrival place trying to get myself to look half-decent.

Can you imagine what the first thing I looked for in Inventory was once I had seen myself naked? Yup, you got it - a penis. I couldn't for the life of me understand the cruelty of people letting a male avatar rez without having a penis handy, not even a flaccid one. "Damn holier-than-thou Yanks" I thought and then calmed myself with the thought that surely there must be a solution to this major malfunction.

Well, within an hour of venturing out of the arrival place, I had been handed three atrocious penises by male avatars who wanted me to service them. The penises were absolutely ugly, both in shape and especially coloring.  Is there really anything uglier in the whole world than a mismatched penile-attachment?

This problem has remained all through my SecondLife. While Ars lived he would help me with tinting, but since he passed away I am on my own with this and not doing great I am not afraid to tell you.

One of the earliest skins I bought in SecondLife was the Dante skin, I think it was sold by something called Naughty Designs. That skin came with a flaccid penis matched to the skin tone, but other than that I have only encountered  one more merchant that supplied skins with penises and that is The Fallen Gods, who supply penile-attachments free of charge in the correct tints.

The skin tinting problem used to be only a problem for male avatars, women did not have similar appendages - as we all knew long before we took Biology 101. That was true until mesh came along, with mesh feet and shoes that need to be matched with the skin the problem is now one that both genders struggle with.

Skin-merchants, when will you take responsibility and realize that it is a serious problem for residents because it is so difficult to properly match the skin of the body with the skin of the penis and other attachments? Why the hell can't you supply us with a card telling us the RGB of the skin  or a texture so that we can tint our penises and other attachments with some ease?

My Feet Examination

Today I - as a part of preparing for the forthcoming changes in my first life - had my feet examined by an orthopedic technician (Profession corrected after reading Eddi's comment below).

The orthopedic technician was so absolutely enthralled by my feet that for a minute I was almost expecting him to start kissing, licking or - at least - sniffing them.

Luckily for me we had company so, with a deep sigh and a shudder of restraint, he controlled his urges and instead went ahead to inform me that I had the most beautiful high arches he had encountered during his ten year career. Likewise the hyper-mobility and over-supination of both my ankles was way past anything he had seen before.

In his judgement I would need very steady shoes to walk and/or run much without the risk of getting injuries. At least we would start there and see if I needed additional aids as time passed. He kindly assisted me to choose a pair of running shoes that were extremely comfortable and should help me with keeping my feet steady despite their hyper-mobility.

The chosen footwear

After today's experience I am bound to look at my feet in a completely new and more respectful way, Im sure.

Drool Ziggy, Drool!

This is just to console my buddy the fearless adventurer Ziggy Starsmith, who at the moment is a prisoner in Mordor. Luckily he brought his iPad along so he can still read blogs and write on his own.

The viking legions of The Much Honored Bock McMillan, laird of Southern Charm and prince of Cascade Falls, are on their way, sweet buddy. Alas their arrival has been somewhat delayed, as they have all insisted on visiting a pedicurist before marching off since they learned about your penchant for bare feet.

They want to look their very best when they arrive to release you from your captivity. Who can blame them?

Please remember not to wear the "One Ring" too often, you will eventually start looking like Gollum and my troops will refuse to rescue you.
