What exactly is an alternative lifestyle?

Last weekend Zak and I were bored and decided to try some of the rp options in SL. The vampire rp seemed like it would be the most interesting. I even played Jyhad the card game in college. (Did I just tell how old I am?) Anyway, we set out to make vampire alts in grand style. So far it's been fun and we have met a few new people. That's the fun of SL, you always meet someone new who you would probably not have run into in rl. I'll post some more about our adventures when we have an adventure worth blogging about.

Well, vacation is now over and it's back to work tomorrow. I hope everyone has a great week.

Having Fun On Vacation!

I had to pop in and check on how things are going in SL and on the blogs I follow. Tymmerie Thorne has a great post on her blog, check out Girl Wonder Speaks in the links column. Since I'm on vacation, I'm too brain dead to be original and I think it's a cool idea. So, 5 things about me in RL and SL.

First the boring RL stuff:

• I love to cook in rl and I can fix and pretty edible meal, but my career, SL, and other things seem to take up the time I used to have to cook. I have gotten to the point that I appreciate a great restaurant.
  
• I miss my greyhound. He passed away in December of 2004. I would love to have another one but we have an aging Shih Tzu who deserves our attention. Our Jack Russlle doesn't care one way or anouther.
  
• I have brownish red hair in RL, not white.
  
• I had one of the best crab cakes that I've had in a long time at Phillip's Seafood Co. at Myrtle Beach, SC this week.
  
• I have a blue VW convertible that I love to drive with the top down.
  

Now the SL stuff:

• I have a guy alt, and a female alt that I use for photography and they are the models for Zak's shape shop, Forma. I don't play as either unless they are needed for something.
  
• I do have a new vampire alt and messing around with some of the RPG stuff in SL has been fun.
  
• I have met a SL friend in RL. Zak (my RL husband) and I met a good friend of ours a few months ago. It was a lot of fun.
  
• I can not build a cube to save my life nor can I script.
  
• The best thing about SL is the friends you meet.

Well, I hope you have a great weekend and I'll be back it next week, when life goes back to normal.

Celebrations!

The build is almost finished. Jace has done an incredible job and we really appreciate all of his hard work. We are down to the lists of smaller task to get everything finalized and set up. Hopefully we will be able to open next week.

In the mean time, we are going to go on a RL vacation. Since it's hard to take pics on the laptop, it will be a week or so before I post again.

Romance - This says it all! To 5 Years in SL and many more.

Today is Zak's 5 year rez day. Tuesday is mine. We have enjoyed the adventure and hope to have many, many, many more.

We are making progress!

It's been a busy weekend at the Wedding Elegance site. We put in 45 pose balls for the guest to use to sit at the chapel. Jace has moved the dressing room to it's final location and we have added landscaping to give it just the right feel. Jace has also started working on the pond. Hopefully, everything will be complete by the end of next week.

Zak the Baker

Today was Cake Day at our house. I started trying to design cakes like I saw on wedding websites. I have never had a talent for building in SL, I always say I can barely rez a cube. Zak has always had a great talent for building. In a few minutes he had a great 3 layer cake with fondant and roses. I had 3 lopsided cylinders that looked like they were ready to cave in. Zak is finishing up his tulip masterpiece, but I think it looks incredible. I'm lucky to be married to such a talented baker. I know his cake creations will be a hit at our new wedding consulting service.

When I say LUSH gardens, I mean LUSH!

I may have gone a bit nuts with the plants, but I want to create the right mood. I think gardens are a great way to do that. Jace has done an incredible job on the build.
