How Does Your SL Look Today?


Recommended Posts

I'm skiing today!

Climbing the lift, my virtual friend Kylie is hanging with me for the ride.  She is very polite to the lift, always excited to chip in with conversations to the vocal objects of SL.

This is my first time skiing here, it is pretty fun actually.  Kylie wants to represent France

France, USA, I don't care 😋  I'm here to win!

We are off, I kind of wish I grabbed the skis, but hey, just imagine them in there!

I ended up on my behind, but it was fun.  I'm much better at skifree, I can avoid the hungry monster most of the time 🙃

So, I had fun Skiing.  In real life, there is a hurricane swirling around in Florida, and it seems to be tradition to go to a Waffle House, in fact there is an entire hurricane rating based upon if the Waffle house is open or not.

It is known as the "Waffle House Index"  no joke, it is pretty accurate and funny.

Anywho, considering the wind, the rain and other factors (rum 😋) plus the nearest Waffle House from me is about half an hour away, I decided to go to one in SL

It is open, we are at index green of the Waffle house :P

I'm looking forward to my Omelet, grits (sugar and butter thank you), OJ, and slices of bread 🤤

Well now, this is realism at its height!  A fight has broken out in the Waffle House!

I have been sooooooo good recently, that I decided to treat myself to a new vintage dress by Sigma (a creator I haven't run across before).

The textures are very nice, but interestingly the HUD allows you to load either PBR or BP ones. What I'm not clear about is whether one replaces the other, or if they both coexist. I'll have to check that out in a non-PBR viewer. (This is taken with the PBR textures, on a PBR viewer).

Were you the Damsel in Distress in this scenario?

/me pours everyone a rum and cola 🥂

I love them, almost as much as long island iced teas 🤤 I have a lot left, I poured myself a big cup about two hours ago and have slowly been sipping away at it.

I've discovered that Teegle people HATE Waterhorse people

Really? That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard. Although I'm def in the teegle camp if anyone asked me which to buy. The animations the teegle horses even while just "idling" are so accurate!

So, I told my curator that I'd be coming to my opening later today in something a little "edgy."

Dunno. Too much? Not edgy enough?

(I don't think I am naturally very "edgy." 🙁)

   I was surprised to see Water Horse had released some new stuff, I thought they'd called quits. I've got two avies decked out with Teegle though, and I felt there was some features 'missing' (and also a few bugs whilst demoing), so I passed. 

   Might grab one if I ever find me a sugar mum, though!

The dress is David Heather. They make some very stylish things, although on the whole I actually think they do menswear better than clothing for women.

The scarf, which is separate, is Gulabi. It's one of my fave accessories, and comes with a really extensive colour HUD.

   Re-re-re-learning Blender for the umptieth time. I decided I wanted to make a window .. A fairly simple process, which I of course complicated the heck out of for no good reason. Slapped on some materials to see how it ended up and it's almost decent .. Except when I searched for 'lead window pane' I didn't necessarily want a rainbow cross design (which was promptly inverted, just because!). But it'll do for testing. Also the sprays may not be entirely in the middle of the thing as I may have kind of sort of gotten a measurement wrong. Ohwell. Window!

   Now to .. Add it to my pile of half-finished projects I may or may not return to finish when I can be bothered to. I hope it'll be soon though, it's a little drafty in my home after I knocked out a window (before realising it wasn't the same size and therefor wouldn't fit the hole in the wall anyway, gah!). Also as I looked a little closer I found some normals that were flipped the wrong way. Because you can't make a mesh object without mucking that up, 'cause,

I went to see Scylla's exhibit today. I took a whole bunch of pics, but most of them turned out really bad. I was having a nice conversation with Scylla, so I wasn't focused on taking pics.Plus, I didn't really know anyone.

Could you tell me the exact items? Caitlin won't remove my "cage" until I find out!!!

This last one looks to me like Scylla is smirking as she looks at me, and saying: " Sandor what ARE you doing...Stop that!"!!!

I am a mum. If I dipped myself in sugar and hid so you could find me would you buy a teegle then?

Ok, the dress is Lau by David Heather / Gianni Brodi. It doesn't seem to be on their MP page, so you'll have to go to the store.

The scarf is Gulabi Arya. Here's the link to the FP

https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/Gulabi-Arya-Scarf-COMBO-PACK/15599831

I should note that both of these are relatively "older" items, so the only body it's rigged for that Caitlin might be wearing is (old) Maitreya.

The scarf is amazing. I have it in a FP. The David Heather is great too, but, honestly, check out their men's wear. They make some really great stuff for men.

I think these are great shots, esp. the two of Livio (the DJ).

It was lovely that you showed up. And also others from here, old and new: @Zrina Nebula, @Ivanova Shostakovich and
@GoSpeed Racer! Am I missing others? I know there were a few others who tried but couldn't get in . . . Maddy kept threatening, but couldn't manage it. I do really love how supportive people here are! (Except Maddy who only wanted to come so that she could mock me mercilessly.)

So thank you!
