#SecondLifeProblems Meme

1 #SLProblems 1

I’m running late to do Strawberry Singh’s latest Monday Meme, but I couldn’t pass this one up! I actually snorted reading her blog and seeing other memes on Flickr and Facebook. Something tells me that this isn’t going to just stop at a blog challenge for a lot of people; I can envision tee shirts and decorative items (perhaps even in counted cross-stitch) with these little gems plastered all over them. I have actually spent the last two days during my commute to and from work coming up with quite a lot of different possibilities!

I ended up actually combining two separate #SecondLifeProblems I have personally encountered to include in my entry. You’ve seen part one at the top of my post (true story). But here is the rest of that story…and probably one you have encountered, too.

1 #SLProblems 2

Yep, it disappeared 😦 Only in Second Life!

I was rushed to get these photos and post done tonight, but this is a long weekend coming up for me, so I may try to do a few more and post to my Flickr page. I must say that thinking about all of those #SecondLifeProblems made my trips home much more entertaining 🙂

If you want to participate, here are the rules:

Meme Instructions: Create a #SecondLifeProblems meme image. It can be an image of any avatar doing anything in Second Life. Write a Second Life Problem over the image and share your meme on your blog or any social network with the hashtag #SecondLifeProblems. Don’t forget to share the link to your post in the comments (of this post) and add your pictures to the Blog Memes flickr group.

If nothing else, go visit the Blog Memes Flickr group. I think I have carpal tunnel syndrome from hitting the Like star so much!

Leather & Tweed In The Lost Town

1 Leather & Tweed D

I hung out at Rwah’s place(s) this weekend. You remember Square Pegs in Round Holes, right? She and Jordy Zipdash have transformed it into The Lost Town, and there is still time to enter the photo competition. All you need to do is create a postcard, shot at The Lost Town and upload it to the Square Pegs the Pictures Flickr group by January 31. It is a juried contest, with the winner receiving 1000L, 2nd place winning 750L and third place gets 500L. So there’s no reason not to head over, snap some shots and enter!

When I got dressed, I realised The Lost Town would be a great place to shoot one of the latest releases from JfL Hats. I love the tweed, it fits snugly and fashionably and works wonderfully with leather and denim. I can’t quite decide if I seem more like a gunslinger in a ghost town (sans guns) or a wayward B actress lost on the back lot of a movie studio. Luckily, I only had to derender a few people who wandered into my shots; I guess I turned them into ghosts!

You might have noticed at the beginning I mentioned Rwah’s places…plural. She is working on another sim, which will be opening (hopefully) soon. It is an amazing build, very unique in character, and has that special touch that only Rwah can bring. Stay tuned for more info; I can’t say anything more right now or Rwah will beat me with her wet sock!

Nostalgia

1 Nostalgia

Sometimes when I have something I need to blog, I just start rezzing stuff and see what turns out. In this case, I started with the Cozy Bed from Kuro in the Iona Conservatory from Trompe Loeil. The reason I started with this build is because I had it rezzed on my platform and couldn’t be bothered to get rid of it and start with something new. Besides, I love the shadows it creates, so win-win.

The end result was a feeling of nostalgia; for what, I’m not sure. Just days gone by, maybe even in another life.
