If ever there was a period of the year to go full goblin mode, it has to be during those few rather confusing days between Christmas and New Year's Eve. It's the perfect moment to have some time off work and limit one's social calendar to me, myself and I. Though to be honest, I... Continue Reading →
Dysfunctional December
I started the Christmas month this past Sunday by rolling out of my bed and slumping down on the sofa, landing straight into the start of Last Christmas that just happened to be on "old school" TV. With all those streaming services at our fingertips, it's refreshing to just watch what happens to be on... Continue Reading →
No Substitute
Let's be honest, Second Lifeâ„¢ isn't a properly fulfilling substitute for a happy real life, but who can blame us for escaping into this fantasy world even if it doesn't truly promote mental health. Many of us will create a Second Life that is so painfully perfect, our real lives will never measure up to... Continue Reading →
Partridge in a Pear Tree – Episode 39
Oy vey! I've only made it to the F in the list of participants in the Holiday Shop & Hop event. Still, I have till 2nd of January to finish it and as my family lives in another country and there's nobody nearby I need to make an obligatory New Year's Day visit to, I... Continue Reading →
Netflix & Chill – Episode 1
Hey there Beaver fans! Yikes! That greeting needs work. Anyhoo, welcome, welcome, make yourselves at home, Spread out, have a muffin and lets take a look at my current Netflix intake. Winter is coming, but no I'm not watching that Game of Thrones prequal series. I'm not sure I even want to see it, but... Continue Reading →
Fireplace Envy
Oh how I wish I had a fireplace in my real life apartment. Or maybe one of those Swedish tiled stoves or any other kind of wood burning stove. I realise that using these on top of central heating because it's "cosy" isn't environmentally friendly, but I would happily trade in the radiators in my... Continue Reading →
Trying to chill
Last Friday I got hit with the "what's the use" blues at work, sometime around noon. I got through the rest of the day by putting myself on autopilote and just getting on with things. I just find it so depressing that we haven't even come to the end of a global pandemic crisis yet... Continue Reading →
Partridge in a Pear Tree – Episode 33
Hunts used to take up quite a lot of my time in Second Lifeâ„¢, but I have lost my passion for them somewhere along the way. Christmas is a good time for it though. There are a couple of good ones, like for example the Snowbound Hunt (ends on December 27th). The prizes sadly aren't... Continue Reading →
Winter slowdown
Every year with the coming of daylight saving time I tend to feel a bit "off" for a week or so. I guess you could call it a mini jetlag. Add to this the shortening of days and the dropping of temperatures and for me this is the start of the big winter slow down.... Continue Reading →
Lazy Day with David
Well folks, it was inevitable. After the previous blog post with the NX-Nardcotix mesh body in which I made a brave attempt to appear fabulously twinkylicious, I have to come back down to earth and conserve some energy by behaving slightly more age appropriate, a.k.a. having a lazy day. To be clear, I only mean... Continue Reading →
