Sigh.......................................................

While standing in my living room, talking via IM, I spotted a small item floating in the water just past our house. Upon closer inspection, I found this adorable creature! His tail moves ever so slowly, as the inner tube drifts in the waves.

I am jealous of this cat! I don't remember ever being jealous of an inanimate object before. Well, it is animated. But, you know what I mean. I want to be this cat! Adrift on a quiet body of water, smiling and peaceful. He must have Fancy Feast delivered right to his tube, he is a well fed cat.

Maybe I should give meditation another try. Close my eyes and become the cat. Feel the warmth of the sun, hear the quiet lapping of the water, and for a while have not a care in the world. Do I hear myself purring?

Lets all take a moment to be one with the cat. It could very well be the best moment of the day!

From this picture, it seems Leeorie has already begun meditating. You might consider a more comfy outfit next time. But you don't need sun block, right Lee?

Well, HEH!

And, while I likes a drink, I don't over do it no more. Thats what bein poor as dirt will do to ya.

Random Stuff

Meet the alt! This is Rainne Darkstone. She lives in Deadwood, sort of. She headed west to find some gold in the Black Hills. So far, she is barely able to feed herself. The other miners must be getting rich. Rainne has a small dry spot out of town to sleep. She tries to avoid trouble when she goes to town. Its not easy because she just cannot seem to keep quiet. The town folk are very nice, one of them, a Miss Skye Qi offered her a new dress! But, Rainne would not take charity. Her parents taught her to be proud and to fend for herself.

Rainne was born in 1814 on a truck farm in New Jersey. She never went to school, and cannot read to this day. She married a nice young man who had a dream of moving to the Illinois wilderness. He had heard of the the great soil there. So, off they went. Rainne had three children. Her boy died fighting the rebels. One daughter is married and living in Illinois still. The youngest daughter headed west to follow a man and a dream. When Rainne's husband died, she decided to head west also. She wanted the freedom, and to maybe find her lost girl.


She is tough, wise, and loves to make a joke or point out the silliness of others. Basically, she is kind hearted, and loves children and cats. The librarian in Deadwood, Miss Lena Kjeller, has taken an interest in Rainne. She is a nice young woman with more clothes than Rainne has ever seen!







Hair fair ran for the last week. It was mostly insane. The lag demonstrating how popular it was. Upon rezzing, a warning screen came down, asking that you remove extra prims. The woman above did just that! She decided to make a bold statement by coloring her skin the same blue as her little prim taxi. As you can see, she felt she must say the obvious by was of a small tummy memo. Bonus oints given for an attention-getting concept.


Time has just gotten away from me. So, here are a few photos that you might enjoy. The jet skiing took place at a sim-warming party given by Galia and Timo. What a lovely island. If you are looking for a place to call home, contact them directly, or send me an IM. The mountain top is really special.

Do Not Try This At Home!

This is not a new dance. This is not a new poseball from Bits and Bobs. This is not a trick photo.

This is me, in a rather uncomfortable pose. Just where this photo was taken is as mysterious as the way my feet are positioned. Not to mention my legs. This evening SL was playing with me.

Lots of fun new things happened. Journeys to the center of the metaverse. Odd contortions. Saying hello to folks who were represented only by shoes. And something totally new, double teleports! Yep, teleport in to one place, and no sooner rez than boom, the screen goes dark and tells me it is requesting teleport!

Points are given for creativity in the borking event. Probably will have to go buy my own gold medal for this one though. Unless there is a buy warning in effect!

The Look of Love

Congratulations Hypatia and Ambrose!

The bride wore the most divine gown of white with tiny ruby accents. The groom was dashing in a classic black jacket with tails.

The toasts from friends were heartfelt, the music superb, and the cake awesome.

With a great beginning like this, there can be no doubt of a wonderful future!

All the best to you both!

Yes, our butts got wet

While strolling around the new build at Willow we were left somewhat breathless by this incredible sight! Its a functioning fountain backed by the best bit of photography I've seen in SL.
The depth of field and sharpness of the image calls to mind Ansel Adams! It was too good to just look at, Leeorie, Rocky and I simply had to become one with the artwork.

Oh, we had fun too!
