August 28, 2008 Thursday

I've continued my daily business and adventures on SL. I did find it necessary to put an announcement in my profile -- please no jerks . .. only I wrote more than that, ha ha. I met a man who did not disclose that he was married until we'd spent some time together and he was trying to date me (and that was just one jerk I've met). I wasn't really that interested in him anyway, but just the idea. That is not! what I'm in SL for, sorry!!

Thankfully I've met some really sweet people. I've spent more time with the Runningbears, I'm glad they let me hang around.

The best time I had this week was when Con, who lives in Scilly, was out and about in the streets at night, and so I went out. He was playing army and then he got his ninja stuff and I got my kimono -- which I had shopped for and wanted to wear. I had some medieval swords (not asian) that I wear now because they sheath and hide. But they come out, one in each hand, and I can animate with the keys to slice those suckers around!! It's exhilarating! So we just messed about a bit, and I got some tips from him on shopping for katanas (japanese swords) and such.

I've started to systematically read through the secondlife website (http://www.secondlife.com/) so that I can educate myself.

Marc and I had a short hovercraft ride -- we each had a hovercraft -- at a lake or sim called Avalon. So that was fun. Marc was THE first person I met when I blinked my way out of the orientation Island. He was on Help Island, a second spot. But I have learned that he is connected to Scilly and The Tube, so I've met up with him again. He's a nice guy.

I also dragged another gentleman (Griz) along with me to several places I wanted to go -- a couple of live concerts, and the Purple Moon ballroom. He was pretty forward, but I called him on it, and then he was pretty nice also. I don't know. I just suck at any and everything related to dating and men and women, in SL too. Ha ha. I just fumble through it.
