Millimina

 

Saturday didn't start too well. I was in a lousy mood when I woke up and just couldn't be bothered with anything. Then I read something on another Swedish blog suggesting that a new civil war is brewing among the Swedish inhabitants of SecondLife. I thought to myself, "Here we go again and this time I am surely staying out of this stupid and needless war as long as none of my friends are hurt." I actually believe these wars start because someone gets too bored during the summer months and feels the need to stir things up.

To my luck Millimina came in-world. I hadn't seen her since the Kiss-A-Swede event some days ago, she´s had ISP-problems.

When I am with Millimina everything just calms down. My volatile emotions and thoughts and my most desperate fears all simmer down and go to rest.

We walked around the sim a bit. I showed her Dejerrity´s new house and we talked about this and that in both real and virtual life. Millimina´s input always give me the right perspective on things, what´s important to me and what isn't. It doesn't even matter if she is upset when she comes, because we always listen to each other. Hell, on some occasions even I have been able to make Millimina calm, so it´s not a totally one-way relationship.

Millimina is an intelligent, insightful, humorous, bitchy and empathic woman and a perfect friend! I am so happy to have her close in SecondLife.

Oh in finishing this post I would like to take you all as witnesses to the fact that Millimina and I have agreed, that if neither of us finds a perfect partner before one of us hits 70, we will move in together and take care of each other..

Speaking for myself and even if I should have found the perfect man but Millimina hasn't, on my 70th birthday I will order my hubby to take me on a trip to where Millimina is staying to bring her and her stuff (and even a few of her cats and swans) to install her in the studio I will have prepared for her by that time.

Damn You, Eddi!

Eddi Haskell over at Eddi Haskell´s Second Life has been playing with PhotoFunia again. He gets me going everytime he does that... Today he tell´s us about making posters, so of course I had to try my hands on it.

This is the result of my labors!

Better Than Bob Marley

Throughout the past week, my hometown has been characterized by the Swedish tradition of students "rushing out" from their high schools after they have taken their final exams. 

After being greeted by families, friends and relatives on the schoolyards they then go in noisy procession through and around the town. Singing at the top of their voices, playing music, shouting and bawling out their youthful delight at finally having become adults. At last they will now be free of school for the rest of their lives, if they should wish so. (Although in my town more than ninety percent of them will go on to university in the fall or next year.)

During this period there are also lots of parties going on to celebrate the occasion, so many youngsters move around town during ungodly hours of the night on their way home.

One young man in particular caught my attention as he for three nights in a row has serenaded me with his beautiful voice. On all three occasions it was around 2:30 AM that he sang this song for me (well my neighbors also - but I like to think it was only for me).

Sadly he did not pass this way last night, I was waiting up to listen to him. He sings this song much better than Bob Marley did.

Two Solutions to a Womans Problem

Blanche Argus (blog Blanche´s Arena) is having problems with the fact that time in SecondLife is mostly announced in SLT (SecondLife Time). SLT is the same as PST (Pacific Standard Time) because the SecondLife computers are placed somewhere in California, United States of America.

I suggest Blanche does what I did and adds two clock gadgets to her desk, with one showing her local time and the other set to the time in Los Angeles, California, USA.

To make it even easier she could choose a digital clock gadget that also tells her if the time shown is AM or PM

Another solution could be to add the clock gadgets supplied by Blogger and set one to her local time and the other to SLT/PST.

Five Solutions to a Manly Problem

How does one pee with a boner? I found these tips on copyranter.

I wish my answer was hanging from a trapeze but sadly I am not that imaginative and don´t have the necessary equipment installed in my bathroom either.

My own preferred method is the one suggested at the bottom right.

(P.S. For elaborations on the different techniques check this post at sexhax "How to Pee With Morning Wood")

Cherished Moments

 

As in real life there is always something going on in SecondLife, a party, a performance, an exhibition or some other event that you just cannot miss - or so you think. In my experience those events are a good way to gather people, but what goes on under the surface is more important, interesting and compelling than the event itself.

For me it´s always about the people I meet and talk with, those whom I share thoughts and feelings with, that make SecondLife a wonderful place to be.

Yesterday I was feeling very lazy and uninspired, sort of hungover but not from alcohol just overfilled with impressions I had to digest.

I walked around the sim by myself, clearing out stuff from the Kiss-A-Swede event and looking over things and wandering about to see the magical touches of Ars all over the place. I had the music turned off and instead listened to the birdsong, the wind and the sound of running water from the waterfalls or the waves.

When I was just about to log off, Butch called me in IM to thank for the party. We started chatting and he invited me over to see his beautiful home. After the tour of the grounds and the house, a Swedish log cabin from Post, we ended up in his living room laying on two couches and started talking about stuff that matters to the sounds of birdsong and frogs.

It was a good long talk and will be yet another of my cherished moments in SecondLife.

A Whole Lotta Kissing!

The time for the 1st annual International Kiss-A-Swede Day in SecondLife finally was finally here.

Before it started I was wondering how the f**k I could come up with such a crazy idea, but that feeling passed once I had Millimina and Vampi at my side and we together waited for the kissers to start coming come to us.

Kissable Vampi in a beautiful furry skin

 With an event like this there is no knowing who and how many will come, you just have to take it in your stride and go with the flow and most importantly just have fun!

People were coming and going all through the two hours, which is just as it should be on this kind of event, many I had missed seeing in a while showed up and some I thought might come didn't but thats to be expected also. Things happen in real life and in SecondLife, we just cannot be everywhere - and of course sometimes we don´t want to be at a particular place either.

The main thing is that those of us that were there had fun, and I myself for sure had an excellent time and kissed like crazy! There was only one dumbass loser who declined my kiss, it did not spoil my fun although I wondered about who shows up at a kissathon and refuses to kiss?

Anyway we were close to 25 avatars for about an hour and about 15 the rest of the time. I had an awesome time.

Thanks to everyone who came and special thanks to Vampi and Millimina for helping kiss a few!
