I thought "hey, i can show this to her and she will just shrug and wonder off" ... but NO ... she was freakin mesmerized by it and had an avatar with in 24 hours! (Why did i leave her alone!) Now my mom has been SL partnered twice and HORROR ... knows what cyber sex is!

I'll teach her to play pétanque and it'll keep her busy for hours.<br /><br />AND the guys will be nice to her, and practice their English, and they'll give her lots of... um... useful stuff for her inventory.<br /><br />Am I really saying this? Hell yeah. I won't give you away, promise. <br /><br />I'll even take her for a ride on the pedal boat (and NO I won't drown her, not even for bribes).<br /><br />See, I'm in the reverse situation - my DAUGHTER (age 22) one got an avatar. Fortunately, however, she wandered back to her medieval RP-type game after embarrassing the hell out of me.ARIADNE KORDAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04527015510787355334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2197162251757701576.post-41545110945222745622009-08-06T23:44:17.421-07:002009-08-06T23:44:17.421-07:00oh your poor dear.

I wouldn't be surprised if my brother had been in, he's a huge nerd and I know he's played MMORPG's, but since I don't talk to him it's all good anyway. <br /><br />So... yeah, I was ROLLING, you are so funny. It was awesome already and then she brought up lucky chairs and I lost it. <3 and half naked girls in chains, omg I was dying.<br /><br />Keep calm, let her know an alt if she insists.

I admit I laughed while reading your post, because I would totally have responded the same way if my mom were to join SL. I'd give her the name of an alt, or friend her and then take away the ability to see when I'm online. It would be cool if we could share SL and do things together in SL, but my mom and I just don't have that kind of relationship...Quaintly Tuqirihttp://quirkyquaintly.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2197162251757701576.post-59966553346712538692009-08-05T20:43:38.348-07:002009-08-05T20:43:38.348-07:00Ah if my mom joined SL I don't know what I wou...Ah if my mom joined SL I don't know what I would do, but she can't even turn on the computer so I think I'm safe.<br /><br />I'm sorry but after working all day and having to write a paper tonight for my class the post made my day.

She told me the name - to be honest I didn't post the real name because I was terrified that haters would read this blog, find her and IM her my AV's name. If she hasn't found this blog, I don't want her to - she won't understand it. She'll have me committed to a mental institution.<br /><br />She picked a really common name for her second AV - there were a ton of them. I didn't have the energy to look at all the profiles. I did find Bart's Chicken Market and that was enough to give me a heart attack. I want to send my alt over there and look for a noob.
