While everyone else is lagging up their SIMs with heart shaped poofers…The residents of SoHo are hosting a Mardi Gras Celebration & Hurricane Fundraiser. 

On Tuesday, February 13th @ 4pm SLT the party kicks off with a Mardi Gras parade complete with festive floats, hand crafted by our very own residents and shop keepers.

At 5pm we will be enchanted by the vocals of our very own Sebastian Jacks from the ever popular band – Dick Richard.

And at 6pm we’ll get down and funky with the sounds of SoHo’s Uncle Seth, who are sure to entertain.

Dress in festive Mardi Gras colors. Masks will be on sale throughout the island. All proceeds from the sales will be donated to Hurricane Katrina Victims. We will also have Donation Stations around the island, so please help us help those who are still recovering from the horrible storm.   

Standing in my bedroom last night sorting though my inventory I realized I was not alone. An intruder had entered my home and made his way up the stairs totally undetected. I have no idea how long he was standing there watching me, but lucky for me he was harmless. I’m still not sure what drew him to my home or why he felt compelled to let himself in.

At first glance I assumed he was a noob based on his very basic apparel, but in checking his profile he was about 2 months in, still in the learning stages I suppose, but he was also coupled leading me to believe he spends a fair amount of time in world.

“ummm…Hello” I greeted him. no response. “does anyone bother to knock any more?” he chuckled and apologized for intruding. I asked him if he lived around here and he advised he had no proper home. “Are you selling appliances?” I joked…another chuckle and again he apologized for his intrusion. “is this your space?” he asked. I replied “Yes” and he departed down the stairs and out the door. Quite the uneventful encounter. He seemed a lil timid and shy so I assume he was not expecting to run in to anyone, never mind an SL Celebrity such as myself. He’s prolly kicking himself right now that he didn’t ask me for my autograph.

Every once in a while I encounter a similar scenario of some one randomly wandering in ….though most of the time Gideon is there, wielding his magnum and threatening to blow the guy to particles. I’m a lil more patient with people I suppose…I’m just curious as to what they are doing and why they felt compelled to let them selves in. So, I guess I’ll post a few No Trespassing signs and see what effects that has.

I was fortunate, or rather unfortunate, the other night to experience Second Life’s latest and greatest bug! While teleporting around with Lyn in search of Happy Bunny Avatars and Super Sized prim boobies, I was struck! My hair and one of my shoes ended up in of all places….my ass! Hahaha. I’ll have to come back and post the pics…one of the chick with the hughnormous boobies, whom we idolized, and one of my ass.

Yeah, double SL post, but this is important! Play close attention to what I am about to tell you….get out your note pads and your platinum cards ’cause iVillage is hosting a fashion show this evening in Second Life!

I’m super excited! Not only to see some fresh designs up close and personal, but to knock elbows with some of SL’s Top designers….aka my virtual crack dealers. I’m planning on camping out at Callie Cline’s place since I know her stuff best.

See you there!!

So, last night G and I were chilling in Martha’s Vineyard on one of our getaways in the sky. We’ve been there since early September when the only neighbors we had were barely shouting distance away. I remember when he built our first sky box, no one else around us, just a simple platform floating in the air.

Now the Sim is nearly full of residents, all of whom have sprouted up their own secret hideaways in the sky. As we panned around, the feeling of privacy was no longer what it once had been. I guess there is not much that can be done though…everyone is looking for an escape…even from the escape which is their second life.

Kinda funny to think about and now I wonder what each of my neighbors intentions are for their sky boxes. Are they being used for business, entertaining, subletting, naughtiness??? Hehehe. I’m not as nosey as some, but if you don’t see me around for a few days it’s prolly cause I’m camped out in my sky box with my binoculars! Hahaha…..Oh, and if you are my neighbor….no worries….I’m just kidding about the binoculars.
