Chubby


Oh oh..I wanted to take a picture of Cait being a bit fuller. Well, just call it fat. So I edited my shape and this is the result:   In all my wisdom, ahem, I edited my original shape. This means that in all my prepared outfits (and I have A LOT of those!!) my…

Burn 2.0


I have always enjoyed the SL Burning Life events, every year in October. A Second Life  version of the RL Burning Man festival, with lots of art and music, meeting people and generally having a good time. This year Linden Lab decided to ‘outsource’  it and it’s now called Burn 2. It will open tomorrow…

Halloween is coming


Traditionally lots of sims in Second Life are decorated for Halloween, this time of year. In the Destination Guide you will find a special section “Haunted” with lots of cool and creepy places to explore. I will soon go on a second tour and take pics for another post! This evening I did some (modest)…

Ink


Inspired by a thread on the GD forum of Secondlife.com, I went through my collection of tattoos this morning. I am  always covered with pen (as Ratt calls it) and I have  quite a collection in my inventory! My favourite tattoos are all from the Garden of Ku. I love their work, even the coloured…

Yaay!


After being logged out a couple of hours ago, I gave it another try (been reading the blogs and apparently the Grid was down). Oh joy, I landed in and Adult Hub, together with fellow-clouds and grey people..hilarious! As I could not move, sit, walk or teleport I left…this is fun for 3 minutes, but…

Coffeetime in Morris


This morning, while Cait’s operator was working a bit, Cait had her coffee in Morris. It’s the welcome area where Ratt grew up (Cait grew up in Waterhead) and it’s a nice place to meet new people from all over the world. Or better, from all over the universe…hey! A Clanger!    

Pondering the meaning…


…of Second and First Life. Yeah. I know. I have not posted a new blog for some days. It’s not that I forgot about my blog, it is more a matter of..oh well. Second Life is a fast life. Sometimes too fast for this girl. You meet people, make friends. Pick a fight, have a…

Voice Morphing!


Today I went to Voice Island, it’s a tiny (ugly!) piece of land where you can buy  the so-called ‘voice morphing packs’. Meaning, when you pay 750 LS for a pack, 5 morphed voices will be added to your ‘speak’ button and your voice will be changed when you speak. For one  month that is!…

Real life..


… is asking so much of my time …. Cait is starting to miss her online world!

The inside of The ImperiuM


Accidentally I rezzed something this afternoon, in our dojo, and could not find it back. So I tried to locate it by using the wire frame. Then, after retrieving my object (it was under the dojo..hehe) I zoomed around and had some fun looking at our sim like this. It’s almost art. No. Not almost…it’s…

These boots are made for walking


Pilar gave me a gift-card for my birthday, to spend on shoes at Redgrave! (Big thanks and a hug, Pil!) So this morning I went shopping, with my card, and chose these fabulous ‘Girls’Bikers Reloaded’ boots…I love them!

Cake and Coffee


Birthday-cake to be more precise ;) Yeah, today it’s Cait’s reallife birthday, so all are welcome in ImperiuM  to grab a piece of chocolate cake and fresh hot coffee!

Farewell to Avatars United


So I just got this email from Linden Lab, informing me that Avatars United will be closed at 29 September…. Somehow I feel bad about it, I always enjoyed the site and it gave me the opportunity to keep in contact with people when I am not able to get inworld…Also, we had a (modest)…

Conversationalists


Even after being in Second Life for more than 3 years, I still can get suprised by the lack of normal conversations some people manage to display. Really. It makes me wonder how they survive in real life, if they do. I mean…see these two conversations I recently had with 2 visitors (on one day!)…

The Forum Cartel Home Tour – 2010


This year I submitted ImperiuM Island as ‘ Open Home’ in the 2nd Annual Forum Cartel Home Tour.  This initiative, by Joshooah Lovenkraft, gives members (and all resident of SL for that matter) a chance to take a look into people’s homes and sims. Some of those homes are normally closed to public the rest…

Never a bad hairday


One of the silly things that can keep me entertained for a couple of hours, is going to hair-shops and try out demo’s of all kinds of hair! Yah, I am easily amused… This morning I went to W&Y Hair, my first visit to this huge store and I was pleasantly surprised by the variety…
