…from anybody, you will not get disappointed’ A rather famous quote, often used after some disappointments. It is not easy to either lower expectations or have none at all. Well, that is how I feel. I’ve tried often though. Yet, every-time I seem to have these expectations. Not big ones, but enough to leave me…

Ladies who lun….errr….drink wine!
Last night my friends and I finally got together for an evening of chatting again! Instead of going out for some exploring or sportive activity as we had done the previous time, I invited Kerena, Becky, Ylva and Kahleesi over to my humble home for some wine and snacks. Sometimes that is all you need,…
Catching up!

I’ve not explored much lately, but I have been online. Enjoying chats with friends and dancing at the MadPea SL Celebrity Auction Parties. Another reason…

‘Shape shift, nose to the wind Shape shift, feeling I have been Move swift, all senses clean Earth’s gift, back to the meaning Back to the meaning of wolf and man ‘ I’ve been offline for quite a while. Well not completely of course, as my work is online but I have been on an…
A small summerbreak and a new man
The past days – I have been less active online and in-world, and enjoyed a bit of a summerbreak which I spend in real life. Not that the weather is super, but there have been some days without rain (!) and the weatherman on tv has promised some nice sunny days at the end of…

Girls Night Out : Wipe Out!
After our previous ‘Girls Night Outs’ in which we went horse-riding and kayaking, we thought it was about time we had another field trip with some action, drinks and chats! So this time we decided to go surfing, a fun sport and so easy in SL – compared to the RL version! We (Becky, Kerena,…
Summertime ramblings and Junk
For me summer always really starts after 7 August. Of course technically it starts earlier, but I can always really start to enjoy the weather once I’ve dealt with some sad anniversaries in July, and then the last being 7 August, the day my Mom passed away. Yes, that is 14 years ago, but still….
About 5AM breakfasts, Indonesian dinners, London city and many Mojitos
When I first set foot in the unknown, to me, internet in 1994 – I soon was warned by people (on- and offline) to be extremely careful with my information when it came to real life (although we didn’t call it ‘real life’ then, I think we called it just real information), because: stalkers and…
Topless Sailors, cruising around the ocean
The other week my friend Pepys wanted to cheer me up a bit and said he would take me out for the evening. Well, that got me all excited of course, not being used to that often, so when he told me to be ready at 11AM ..I was! All dressed up pretty and looking…
And so, I was a real model for an hour…
One of the things I have had on my wishlist in Second Life, was to have my portrait made by Skip Staheli. I’ve admired his work for ages and always enjoy his photo’s on Flickr. Sure I can do my own pics, but I just wanted one of those beautiful portraits that Skip creates. Because…
Adiós Don
My blog-post yesterday was one of few words, published while in a total shock and with hands too shakey to be able to type, just within an hour after I received Grazia’s phone-call with the news I was so afraid of to get. Don (Don.Mill), my beloved, wonderful, witty, warm, caring, smart and very brave…
Last dance
Words fail me. My heart hurts so much. Don, my best friend, is no longer with us. I will miss him so so much. Rest well, brave, wonderful friend.
“You can’t wait for inspiration. You have to go after it with a club.”
The quote I used as subject for this post is from Jack London, not something I was so smart to come up with! But when I read it, at first I thought: oh hell yes! And then after a while, I changed my mind and decided it does not work that way for me. Maybe…
