Well over a year in fact! Yes, I lapsed. I stopped because 1) my main friend in SL went to prison and I wasn't feeling like talking to anyone else as that was pretty disturbing (DRAMA!!) and 2) my computer stopped working and I was borrowing my boyfriends computer for access.
Well I've now got a new computer (with even better graphics) and I stupidly had left Massively in my blog reader. Today it reminded me that I hadn't logged on to SL for a long time. My main account is blocked and I've sent a ticket to support about that, but my alt, around which this blog is based, was there ready and willing. I checked I had my airship, my cat and my pet red dragon slung in my hand Inventory and lumbered around Gay Zone Germany in my Cyberman suit before heading off to make new friends...
With no home, no place to call my own, I'm the littlest hobo of SL. With a laser. AND A MICROLIGHT. :D

Strawberry Chairs
Today I discovered 1) a crazy group of people sitting on strawberry shaped chairs and 2) self replicating strawberry shaped chairs!
I'm also the proud owner of a Roman toga (Roman RPing sounds fun!), a derigible, a microlight, some nice art and a monocle (Victorian Steampunk!).
This is what makes SL fun for me.. it's so god damn random!!

Jae Gets A House!
Today I bought a house in the beautiful region of Cedars. It's L$5000 a month (about £10.00). I'll soon be filling it with allsorts of rubbish but for now it's home to a cat named Angel, some sofas and a dreamcatcher.
I've been around a fair bit now, and entered a new subculture... the Tiny Empire players who are just plain strange. But I can see why they play. It's a social game, helping you meet new people in Second Life. It also provides some with a framework for roleplay. It's an interesting little way of life.
Speaking of which... I know all about slave/master relationship and have been learning about Gorean culture but still it was odd when I encountered a Native American male avatar dominating a Native American female avatar in a shop whilst I was buying my dreamcatcher.. it never crossed my mind, being very naive, that such a weird roleplay would exist...

The Great SL Outage of April 2008
So I woke up this morning to find my SL mates "huddled" together in a video/voice Yahoo messenger conference. SL had gone down.
Now there wasn't any complaining, which was surprising considering the amount of moaning a lot of the SL bloggers get through on a daily basis RE: outages. Instead there was more a blitz spirit with laughter, porn and joshing. I signed off pretty quickly and went and got breakfast... amazing how not having SL on made me get all proactive!
I came back to find SL back up and I set about exploring some of the lands I'd been meaning to visit... Luskwood (where I picked up a gorgeous Tiger avatar), the gorgeous Cedars (where I enquired about renting some property... watch this space!) and indulged my latest in world obsession... Tiny Empires. I also got myself a pet cat, which whilst basic is quite pleasing.
Alas it didn't last and after popping away from my computer for two seconds I came back to a worrying message about being logged off by an administrator. SL was closed again...
Talking online with some mates they all suddenly started disappearing back into RL.. car washing, food making... who would of thought! And I too have been off watching telly, reading, going out and buying supplies I've been neglecting recently... shampoo, toothpaste, batteries... Who needs SL when RL is this much fun??
