Next time we get griefers, I'll morph into Hardy the Bouncer I should have put on my Storm Trooper outfit and skin! I forgot about that!!! It would have scared the crap out of them! LOL!

Hi Punuter - Go to www.secondlife.com You will have to download the program. Downloading the program is free. This page has all of the computer requirements to play this game. You are able to pick a 1st name and you have to pick from a list for the last name. You do not need to pay to play this game. **But something tells me you will LOL. But you dont have to decide right away. The only bonus is that if you become a premium member from the get go you automatically get lindens which is the currency in SL. You can look me up in people search or any of the others ladies posting or you can post your name in this thread and we will find you. Everyone is very helpful and you will love SL and be very addicted. I hope this helps.

Oh forgot. Second Life is a virtual life. I prefer to call it "playing animated Barbies" I wish i could get dress like we do in SL and fly and teleport. Think of all the time we would have to play this game. Hope to see u there!!

Ok, let me share my sl experience from last night. Only a BB fan will understand this. Since I had been so busy decorating all week, I decided I would take a little time to go dancing late last night after Clio's viewing. My dance partner gives me this line (and I swear on Dr. Will I am not making it up)"so you are falling in love with me". Of course, I respond back with "no, I hate you". Then he says "sometimes hate goes full circle and becomes love". He kept telling me this then later he called me a "pit bull" . By this time I am thinking this guy has watched BB and is stealing all of Dr. Will's moves. I was too afraid to ask him though if he watched BB. If I see him again, I will though. Clio, maybe I have found a Dr. Will on SL

Busy (aka Alex) - thank you all for making me feel so welcome. I'm having so much fun hanging out with you, shopping and figuring out which loft I'm really renting ! See you back later this evening.

Okay guys I have a big question. I ran through the money I bought like water and in all honesty, I can't afford to buy SL money every couple of weeks, LOL! Is there a way to MAKE SL money? I mean....the only way I've found is at a casino, on a dance pad, where you can earn $2 every 10 (RL) minutes. That's $12 an hour, yes, but dang....I'd have to park my avatar there for hours just to make enough to afford a new outfit (I think I might be a tad bit addicted to shopping...). Suggestions, pretty please!

There are actually some decent paying jobs in SL, Care. You should check the employment forum on secondlife.com. Clio, I noticed somebody is looking for an event coordinator for their club! And Punuter - that's great! Don't forget to post your SL name here - and no presents from strangers till you hook up with us!

I broke down and went ahead and bought more money. I'm going to need one of you to monitor me, LOL! Is it better to just become a premium member? Does the $300 a week stipend go far? Since I missed mirror shopping today, can someone tell me where I can go to buy one? lol OH! First thing I did when I bought money? Went clothes shopping, of course! I bought a new formal gown--have no idea where I'll wear it to, but I have it on right now and am in love with it, lol.

Here's the new dress: I'm flying high above my favorite hair store, LOL! I have new hair, too. I probably won't keep this on, so I had to take pics of it now before I go searching for some more casual clothes, lol.
  Love, love, love....so much love!

LOL...I love it !!! It is so much fun to get all dressed up. Who cares if there is no place to wear it..the fun is really in the dressing up anyway! And unless you are going to buy First Land...there is no need to upgrade to a premium member. At this point...unless the Lindens change things in the future, there is no advantage at all in having a premium membership. And no....300l wouldn't last me through one shopping trip lol. There are a lot of fun things to do there though that don't cost anything. When the lofts get back to normal...as normal as it can get that is ...we will start showing you some of the fun things there are to do and go see. You can even take a ride on a spaceship that NASA has actually built on SL. And best of all...BIG BROTHER SL will be starting soon..that will be sooo much fun!

OOOOH! I can't wait for BB SL! :D I have another question, LOL! Can someone point me in the direction of a NICE shoe store?? One where the shoes actually look a little more realistic and fit on the feet well? I just spent almost $1000 on shoes alone and none of them are laying on my feet right, I'm so bummed! Best of all, I changed out of my formal dress and put on my BMIN shirt. :D I love it!! I can't wait to see all the other stuff SL has to offer....but for now, I'm definitely having (too much) fun shopping!

I just spent almost $1000 on shoes alone and none of them are laying on my feet right, SOMEBODY STOP HER!!!! CARE!!!!!!! SLOW DOWN!!!!!!! LOL, you need a shopping buddy, have you been with any of the pros yet? I'm off today, so look for me this afternoon and tonight and I'll take you to some of my fav. places too. I'm still not sure if you've been to the free places yet ...... I'd be sure to go there now because you may not be able to go there later (it's for newbies only, 30 days and younger.) The best one is called the Free Dove.

Also, about the shoes, do you see something in the folder in question called "shoe shape" or "shoe fitter"? You may need to adjust your appearance and change your foot size to 0 (make them as small as possible.)

I TOLD YOU I HAVE AN ADDICTION! LMAO I stopped myself last night.....after I went through $5000 shopping. I'm not even joking. I don't even remember what I bought! I think you all should ban me from TPing to any store, ever again, lol. I'm pretty sure I used the shoe shape/shoe fitter, but not 100% sure if I'm doing something wrong. It's frustrating, I bought the cutest ankle boots and my feet poke through them. Look like I have big godzilla feet! I wish I could check out the free places, but I've had my account since Oct. of last year. I just didn't start playing until here recently, but I've been a member with SL for almost 4 months now.

Yeah ..... you need to change your foot size. Right click on your avatar, select "change appearance" and then (doing this from memory) select "shape" and then under legs (maybe) you've got an option for foot size. Move the slider all the way over to the left. That should do it. But OH MY GOODNESS!!! $5000 is my budget for two weeks for EVERYTHING in SL! LOL!
