Returning the favor and making it perfectly clear. This is the woman I love dearly and deeply. She has been my best friend for over two years and is the most unique person I have ever known. I could very easily see this being the person I grow old with.
I swear that if it were not for the economic impact and the smell, this would jacks life
136 cats in one apartment. This would allow her to fulfill her life’s dream of having enough cats to “roll around in the love”. The picture of the interviewer covered in cats kills me.
Well, in 5 days I have racked up 60 hits. I’ll admit this is more attention than I expected. I’m rather used to living in obscurity. Thank you, all who visit. My ego appreciates it.
Last night I made my third sculpture in SL. Its fairly simple, but I like it.
The symbol on the heart is a molecular representation of cyanide. One carbon and one Nitrogen atom. At least it should be if I researched it right.
I have been feeling pretty good with things lately. I have noticed that things tend to look bleaker in the middle of the night, but that should hardly be surprising. I’m more confident in my relationship, and with things in general. We still have issues, but I think and hope it can all be dealt with like adults. I’ll write another “history” entry tonight, I think.
And now… here is an article on how to back a car out of a moving airplane.
And if thats not enough, Just for kicks, heres how to jump from a moving train.
Feeling pretty good today. The GF and I have had some significant quality time over the last couple of days, and it has gone a long way to calming the raging inferno of internal conflict. Seriously, I’m getting too old to feel like I’m 15. And yes, I appreciate the silliness of that comment.
Some small updates on general life: We have started working out again. We are both out of shape in various ways and need the exercise. Jack has taught me how to build in Second Life. I’ll be taking snapshots an uploading pictures to my gallery in DA. I have the most adorable monster built so far. I am contemplating several real world projects to replicate some xkcd strips in sculpture. Specifically This one for starters.
Fast note on building things in Second Life. All things in second life are built with simple shapes manipulated and placed together. Much like an extremely advanced form of Lincoln logs or Legos. When your putting something together, the objects are set to not be physical by default. In other words, they are treated like phantom constructs. they just float there. Lets pretend. Say you spent several hours teaching yourself to build and lovingly placed 25-30 odd shapes together in a precise arrangement to form a cute one-eyed monster. The last thing you would want to do is forget to link all the objects together, then accidentally set the properties for all objects to “physical”.
The end result is that gravity suddenly takes hold and your entire sculpture crashes to the ground in 30 randomly scattered pieces. Your rage would slowly build to unimaginable proportions as you contemplate throwing the laptop into the TV.. then you realize you should be mad at yourself as it’s plainly your fault. Slowly you start to rebuild.
Jacks obsession with Second Life is beginning to pay real life dividends. She is, at this moment, in a lunch meeting with the vice president of marketing for the company I work at. They are contemplating ways to utilize Second Life to promote the (insert company here) brand. The opportunity just came tripping past. One of our support managers was talking about someone needing a new laptop because they wanted to check out this “second” thing.. I asked if she meant Second Life. She said that was it, and we started talking. Eventuality, she dumped me into the VP’s office and said this is ****, he knows everything. We talked for an hour, but it all boiled down to “I don’t know everything, but I know someone who does.” and I passed him Jacks card. So, lunch it is.
