I had to take a day off yesterday… I had so much junk to catch up on that I didn’t have any time to blog. :( But I’m all caught up and ready to get back into the groove. And thanks to everyone who wished me well, I’m feeling tons better today and I think I’m out of the sickie woods now! Yay!

Day 5 – How hard do you think it is to find a relationship in SL? Where are people meeting each other?
Well, I’m married IRL so I’m off the market. But considering how infrequently I just run into random players it seems like unless you know where to look for real people, it’s a bit hard to find them.  Or maybe I just like going places that aren’t overrun by green dots because I’m anti-social.  Who knows? :P

Day 6 – Do you think it would be fun if we had random weather hit us in SL, like thunderstorms or blizzards?
I’d love to see weather effects. Maybe it’s my longing to see a real thunderstorm since I live in Sunnyville, USA and haven’t seen rain in months. I hate to compare World of Warcraft to SL because they are so different…. but… WoW has awesome weather effects and I love seeing fog roll into Feralas and then turn to sprinkles and then all out rain. It really is so much fun. At least Windlight gives the option of changing the feel of the sky with all of it’s options… so that’s something. (Of course, I logged into WoW to try and snap a pic of some of the random weather effects and well, emphasis on the random, it wasn’t raining anywhere! So here’s just a random pic of Feralas instead.)

Day 4 – Where do you go to shop when you just need some retail therapy? Do you suffer from buyers remorse later? What is the most expensive thing in your inventory?

Deviant Kitties is my retail therapy of choice. I love every single style I have from DK and they are just so much fun to wear. Back when I was a noob (as opposed to today where I’m a highly functioning noob) I used to sit up in a skybox trying on DK demos, fantasizing about buying lindens and going on a shopping spree. I finally couldn’t take the temptation anymore and hair from DK was one of my first purchases and still where I go to drop lindens to make myself feel better. ^^

I don’t think I’ve ever had buyer’s remorse on any of my item purchases. But I’ve certainly had a touch of buyer’s remorse on some of my land purchases in the past. >.<

The most expensive things in my inventory are my Redemption Pistols from C-Tech but they were worth every penny.

Yup, I’m full blown sick. My head feels like it’s going to explode into gooey chunks.

Since I didn’t answer the BBBC question from yesterday I’ll do both today. :)

Day 2: Do you have dreams about SL? If so, do you dream of SL as it is, or does it become more “real world?”

I only tend to dream about things when something is bothering me… so the only SL related dreams I’ve had have been more like nightmares. And SL definitely becomes more “real world” for me just because typically the issues I’ll think about and stress about would be things that would also be ones that would stress me out in RL… except perhaps lag. :P

Day 3: If there was one thing on the grid that you could snap your fingers and it would be gone forever, what would it be and why? It has to be something other than lag. ;)

The camera. OMG, I hate the camera in SL with a passion. I can’t even describe how much I hate the camera… but I’ll try. :P Even though it’s been several months that I’ve been in SL, I still HATE, HATE, HATE the camera. HATE. Coming from a game like WoW where the camera is very intuitive and very easy to use, the camera in SL is clunky and obnoxious. And don’t get me started on zooming! Argh!!! Also, I tend to get a little touch of motion sickness after exploring for too long in SL. Most of my WoW friends spend about 20 minutes complaining about the camera every time they log in. >.< The only thing I do like about it is being able cam to something from a long distance away. Other than that, HATE.
