‘Just take a seat, they’re always free’
Summer in Second Life is, for me usually ‘the lonely season’ and this year it seems worse than ever. It’s okay, I guess. I’ve gotten used to the sound of an incoming IM and it being from some disappointing group-chat instead of a friend, but hey hoo: my friends will return from their vacations and…
