  1. My husband tells me, "you're a keeper." That has always made my heart warm and my tummy flip flop. ❤️ I think that is the sweetest compliment I've ever heard from anyone. At least to me it is.
  2. I think it is rather adorable so I wouldn't have the heart to eat it. It would make me rather sad if I did. It is beautifully made though!
  3. Lazy Friday in Bellisseria with Edi and Feli.
  4. That is an absolutely beautiful horse @Layla Claven. Are Teegle horses pretty easy to ride? I'm used to my WH, but have been looking for a more simple horse.
  5. Beth? I'm just gonna give you lots of hugs. I'm just sending you lots of hugs.
  6. I joined Second Life back in 2009 on my original account. I started over one time after my divorce since my ex was into sl too. I didn't like giving up the option of a last name, but it was worth it for a fresh start. I wouldn't personally be willing to start over again just to get a last name. I'm looking forward to what LL has set up. I'm going to be more than happy to pay for the option of a last name on this account since Lyrical is the one account that has truly felt like me. It wouldn't be a good idea If they started offering new accounts with last names. Like many have said, it would upset a lot of people who've been in sl for years and have a lot of time/money invested into their accounts with the Resident name. No matter the solution they come up with, there are always going to be down sides to it. There are always going to be people who aren't completely happy. The solution they are implementing I feel is the most fair under the circumstances because although it's important to attract new users to sl, it is also important to maintain the happiness of the long term users as well.
  7. Ok. I didn't actually mean to post anything. I accidentally quoted myself instead of the edit option. Oops!
  8. I cannot answer for others, but I can give you my perspective here. You can't please everyone. Nor should anyone be expected to. There are always going to be those out there who are simply offended by others breathing and that cannot be changed. My way of thinking is, it isn't any of my business what is in someone's home in rl or sl. It is also no one's business what is in my home. If I somehow got a glimpse of an image through a window that I don't like, I wouldn't continue to look. Simple as that. (I've never actually caught sight of items people have in their home by walking, biking, roller skating, horse back riding or boating by.) It just has never happened and I don't see how it easily could. I'm not out to offend or traumatize anyone. I try to be as kind as I can. I'm not going to go through all of our houses peeking through at each angle to make sure no one sees something that can offend. I have better things to do with my time. Besides that, my husband and sisters would be wondering if I had lost my senses. To me that is going beyond the necessary. I feel that people choose to be offended in many situations. If you are standing in a position outside someone's home where you see a nude artwork, religious item or even a photo of a celebrity you don't care for, it is easy to walk away. (Generalized use of you by the way.) It is really that simple. If someone chose to cam into someone's house and they end up offended, that is on them as long as the person who owns said house isn't breaking tos. As long as the person owning the home isn't breaking tos set forth by Linden Lab, it isn't anyone's business what they have up besides that person and the Lindens. I think the people getting offended should perhaps be taking an inward look at themselves and their own behavior and feelings. Not getting offended at an image. People can go overboard on trying to please everyone because it is an impossible feat. As long as I'm following the tos, I'm doing what I'm supposed to be doing. Same goes for everyone else following the tos. They are doing all they are required to do. Please know this wasn't meant to sound harsh. I'm just giving feedback from my perspective. That's all.
  9. Using pick up lines is completely wasted on me because I'm about as flirtatious as a brick. I have no idea when someone is trying to flirt with me. My husband had to explain he was flirting with me. There was one line though someone said to me that was obvious even though I'm little miss oblivious. It just made me roll my eyes. Something like, "Did my avi just die and go to heaven, or are you a fallen angel?" 🙄 I mean they could of been seeking spiritual guidance for all I know, but I doubt it.
  10. I'm completely introverted although rl hasn't always allowed me to be. Growing up I lived in the middle of nowhere with my dad. I was homeschooled until high school. I was a lecturer at university until about ten years ago. I also performed opera, Celtic and jazz music throughout my life. Inworld I have taught role play classes. I've been an admin for a role play sim for several years. I volunteered my time in my spiritual community helping new comers for about eight years. I've sang and recited poetry. I'm also my sister's assistant for her residential sim. Most of the time now, I just don't force interaction with others on a large scale because it is exhausting. It has become more about me time while in SL which makes me feel quite selfish, but I really do need the down time. I took the personality test that @Beth Macbain posted. Thank you Beth for the link. I've never head of a test like that. Very interesting. Results: Advocate INFJ-t
  11. "Unfair!" I noticed this being used more lately. I've no idea why. Perhaps I'm just noticing it for the first time.
