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??
