The Flat Rodvik Linden Meme – He Ain’t Heavy

What an honour! This week Berry has made it possible for us to travel the grid with CEO of Linden Labs, Rodvik Linden (aka, Rod Humble). She said she did this because she likes goofy stuff; I think she really did it so she could mark the “Dance with a Linden and/or Hamlet” item off her Bucket List 😉 Whatever her reasons, this has got to be one of the silliest – and most fun – memes she’s done. I have giggled my way through the photos on Flickr and the few other blogs I have read. I can’t wait to read the rest!

Before I start my day with Rod, here’s what we are supposed to do:

Meme Instructions: Pick up a Flat Rodvik Linden from my marketplace store for free. (Or make your own using my image or your own image of Rodvik.) Wear or rez him as you travel the grid. Take him to places you think he might not have seen yet and show him a good time. Don’t forget to leave a link to your post or images in the comments of this post so we can all come by and see where you took him!

My first stop with Rod was the Love Donna Flora event. We paused in the lovely courtyard at the landing point to take the photo above, but as we started down the hill toward the stalls, I thought I heard him mumble something about the lag, so I tucked him back into my inventory. I was happily shopping and didn’t hear another word from him until I passed the Poet’s Heart booth when I swear he whispered, “You look lovely in pink but I think you would look better in yellow.”

So I bought it 😉 And headed home with Rod.

A Peep At Peep – My Seven SL Facts Meme

Another challenge brought to you, compliments of Strawberry Singh! The challenge is to create a meme about your Second Life and blog it.

The first is to share seven facts about yourself in Second Life which may or may not be known to other people.

So, here we go!

Fact #1 My first job in Second Life was as a dancer in a booby club. This was LONG before Lolas were around and the prim boobs were truly horrendous! I was so scarred by this experience I’m more than happy to sport C cups in SL now.

Fact #2 I wasn’t a huge fan of ducks before I was given my Cyber Ducky, who rarely leaves my shoulder now.

Fact #3 I get dizzy even riding swings in Second Life. Which is why, when I won a custom bike a couple of weeks ago, I turned it into a pose prop 😀

Fact #4 I always try to correct typos when I’m chatting before I hit enter. If I miss one and notice it afterwards, I rarely correct it in a separate line. I figure people know I can spell and I don’t have to prove it. The only exceptions are when my cat walks across my keyboard or an inadvertent typo is…um…a bit rude:
[01:55] Þєєþ Ðαгкшαгđ (peep.sideshow): lol it was thirsty
[01:55] Þєєþ Ðαгкшαгđ (peep.sideshow): drinking my cock
[01:55] Þєєþ Ðαгкшαгđ (peep.sideshow): OMG!!!
[01:55] Þєєþ Ðαгкшαгđ (peep.sideshow): COKE!
😮

Fact #5 I love my booty in Second Life. In fact, I would give my ex-husband’s right arm to have it in RL!

Fact #6 I have a ridiculously large inventory full of the silliest things. A favourite game that one of the DJ’s I used to work with liked to play was “What’s In Peep’s Closet?” The object of the game was to get guests to call out an item and see if I had it. I think I was stumped twice (due to Fact #3, I don’t have a lot of vehicles).

Fact #7 While I was a dancer (see Fact #1), I was asked by a patron how much I would charge for sex. I jokingly said, “10,000L”. I heard the ‘Kerching!’, my bank balance was 10,000L higher and I was so horrified I paid it back and logged off without saying a word!

That’s about it. Not exciting, and probably not surprising. But it was fun!

A Girl And Her Duck

I have a little friend who goes with me wherever I go. He’s a shoulder pet named CD – short for Cyber Ducky. He was a gift from a friend about two years ago, and I’ve worn him ever since. He occasionally comes off when I’m doing photos and his laser beams get in the way *grins*, but that’s about the only time.

He even acted as my escort when I was maid-of-honour at my best friend’s wedding!

Shoulder pets aren’t that uncommon in Second Life. But when I’m asked why I wear him, my repy is, “He’s my asshole meter.” If it bothers anyone that he’s there, that’s my indication that I want to steer clear of the ducking hater 😉

He’s my constant companion, whether I’m out shopping, at a club, taking photographs or simply spending some quality time alone.
