It's my favorite SL blog of all of 'em. *grin* What brought me out of the shadows is those (bleep) chickens. Whoever invented those cursed things is laughing all the way to the bank because they MUST be raking in the money. It's likely not the chicken eggs themselves that are making the profits; it's all the feed and supplies.<br /><br />I've only been on SL for 1 1/2 years, so I don't know the history of SL fads. This one has all the markings of one. I don't begrudge anyone's enjoyment of the plucksters, but I want nothing to do with it. When I see folks just sitting around watching their eggs and watching their chickens and talking about eggs and talking about chickens, I just scratch my head and think about heading to Denny's for a Grand Slam.<br /><br />p.s. I am from Kentucky so I also think about Kentucky Fried sionChicken. <br /><br />p.p.s.

Yell if I'm around but I'm sure one of your friends will have one. But if you can, pull a 'snowing' script out and save it first :)<br /><br />(I am purposely ignoring the chickens. I am so NOT going to have / adopt / spend Lindens on chickens in SL. I am still traumatised from killing my daughter's tamagochi years and years ago while she was at a camp (first rule on the list: kids must leave their tamagochis at home - it was THAT bad. She even used to call and ask how it was... good to know your kid is homesick for a bit of plastic, not you). And yes, I lied to her until she got home, thus sparing the camp monitors a child in grief-stricken meltdown. <br /><br />Ooops didn't ignore them, did I.<br /><br />But no. No chickens.<br /><br />As for partners, and at the risk of being bludgeoned to death by the hordes, let me trot out my mum's 'married bliss and single blessedness' line. Clichés R Us.<br /><br />I have one in RL and SL, (I know, I know, fortunate Ari). RL man is lovely, and I say this EVEN though he's anti-SL and has been the World's Most Fragile Creature with a stomach flu this week. The SL one is also adorable but totally fails to get my 'building' thing. <br /><br />But really... time for myself (RL or SL) is often a struggle. RL man works at home, as do I. SL man always rolls up when I'm totally absorbed in a build / shopping.<br /><br />Oh dear I did have a point here somewhere. <br /><br />I think it's this: I do wish for you, sincerely, that you'll find a great Mr RL (and believe me, there are certain merits from having a Mr SL too). And I'm not doing the 'grass is greener' lecture. <br /><br />Well, not really. But if you want to hang out or dip your toes in the virtual water (despite our clashing time zones), feel free. Mr SL is away for a month and I'm sort of moping around now and then too.<br /><br />And I promise the swim and dive system no longers plants avatars with their heads in the sand / pool base.

Amusing yes, you feed it and wash it, but if you don't do it everyday it won't die, it won't birth more dogs and you don't have to buy food every week.<br /><br />I have no partner in SL, friends that come and go-Toby is always there to make me laugh. <br /><br />/me feels pathetic<br /><br />Anyway A.I.F is the where my dog is from.<br /><br />PS-The prim babies freak me the f*#@ out.<br /><br />P.P.S.

I pretty much decided ...I do so enjoy this blog. <br /><br />I pretty much decided that I wasn't going to have kids of my own, so I never worry about my eggs in that sense. ;) The chicken thing I am totally ignoring until it goes away. I shall stay strong...damnit.<br /><br />As for the lonely part, I really get it. Everyone I know has a pixelated partner too...except, since we've talked now I guess we know each other so I can't say that anymore, lol. If your pixelated friends are too busy with thier SO's, you can come hang out with me anytime. ;)<br /><br />In fact, I just realized today that I am the only person I know in RL that is single. That's either sad or liberating, I can't decide which.<br /><br />Are you on plurk? If so, add me. ;)Arcadia Nightfirehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14871730761278290759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2197162251757701576.post-9261199802809681712009-07-14T14:29:56.839-07:002009-07-14T14:29:56.839-07:00Nuuuu!

I actually had them from the MM board and they hatched but then I deleted them. I just could not bring myself to pay that much for their food plus I would have to make a sacrafice somewhere else in my other prims to have them so I am one of those chickenless or eggless people myself and I am proud of it...dammit!Terri Zhangsunhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05828726434294216050noreply@blogger.com
