Dear Friendlies,
As most of you know, I’ve been invited to take part in a big-time gallery in SL *makes happy noises*. I also have a number of paying clients I’m taking pictures for right now, on top of working on my next picture for the Gallery of Light. All up I need to be producing a [...]

Vampire

An SL friend of mine recently decided to take on the vampire look. She’s not sucking anyone’s blood with green spam or whatever, but she has the skin, the clothing, the eyes, etc. I’ve never been into role-play in SL, it’s not why I go there, I’ve often felt somewhat uncomfortable around child avies and nekos [...]
The News

I don’t watch the news much; the two main times I’d get a meaningful exposure to it would be 6pm when my son’s having his dinner (and I refuse to let him watch the news, especially these days) or having a bath, and 10:30pm when I’m often in bed or getting ready for bed. Tonight, [...]
Alone in SL: Finding a male model.
Posted in Second Life, Second Life Art, tagged couples, poses, Second Life on November 27, 2008 | 3 Comments »
I don’t have a “male companion” in SL – a boyfriend, or partner, or sex buddy or whatever. And that’s not an invitation; I don’t want one. But it’s annoying to a high degree when I want to find out what a set of pose balls do, and in particular take a couple shot, and [...]

After reading Kimber’s very loving and touching post about me on her blog (I plan to return the honour sweetheart); reading Bailey’s Thanksgiving post on her own blog; and recently deciding to temporarily drop my friends pick in my profile, I’ve decided to write a public “yay” for Bailey Longcloth.
Bailey was one of the most [...]
When Art Works

For me, art is an outlet - all those emotions and frustrations that I can’t or refuse to put into words, come out in my pictures. So it makes sense that after an emotionally draining day that left me feeling lost and unsure of a few things, that I ended up going on a personal art spree. [...]
Personalised spam hits SL..?
Posted in Second Life, tagged rude, Second Life, spam, spammers on November 23, 2008 | 2 Comments »
Is it just me or has SL got a lot more spammy lately? In the space of 24 hours I got hit with this offline IM from someone I’ve never met:
[2:13] Zilver DeCuir: Hi! Sorry if im bothering you, but my friend is having a sale on skins, would you mind if i sendt you [...]
Beached As Bro

In NZ we currently seem to have decided the clip I’m about to show you is a local cult classic. It’s everywhere – I see t-shirts with it on in the main clothing stores and I saw it embedded in my students assignments too! O.O
It’s a clip that takes the shit out of how us [...]

Anyone who reads my blog or who is close to me knows I’ve been struggling these last few days – dealing with a few curve balls from family, friends and work. Well today I got to smile, and laugh, and dance, and I feel like sharing why.
First off I finally got traction with finding some [...]
The Stalkee

This is the next installment in my stalker series: The typical stalkee.
I was interested to hear in the responses to my last stalker post that being stalked wasn’t as widespread a phenomena as I was lead to believe by my own experiences and by my other friends! So I thought it would make sense to [...]
