I’m going to take another go at a Big Bad Blogger Challenge prompt.
Describe what your perfect Second Life day would be like.
I thought for a bit about the “not in the realm of possibility” things that might make for a truly perfect day like an automatically organized inventory with stray items deleted and never missed or learning that the tier on Covet was being waived for the rest of time because all of us who live on Covet are just too cool to have to pay. Then I decided to talk instead about what a regular “perfect” day would be like. It’s a day that actually happens every once in a while.
I sign in to SL and there are no urgent notecards waiting to greet me. No one pounces me in IMs while I still have group notices and other inventory pop-ups on my screen. Kavar stands across from me working on a project that makes me all grabby hands for it. Kere is working in the Covet sandbox below the workshop on some grand creation for Covet or Ivy Falls. A project of my own waits by my pose stand, and I know just how I want to finish it, and when I’m done, I feel happy and proud in my accomplishment.
I decide to treat myself to a bit of shopping, and I run across someone or something that makes me right-click and inspect, and then off I go on a little adventure from shop to shop, finding new places and having fun exploring. While I’m out and about, I take some photos to add to Flickr later and maybe even blog about them here. I send landmarks to my friends when I find places that make me think of them, and I happily chat away with them as we each do our own thing. We send snapshots back and forth from time to time as we keep each other up to date with whatever we’re doing. Maybe some of us will meet up to try out poses together at a new-to-us pose shop or to take photos together.
I end the day in SL feeling blessed to know such talented and kind people. No negative voices bounce around in my head. The last stop of the day is back in the workshop where I spend a few minutes telling everyone good night, and then I go off to my RL bed with a smile on my face.
And here I am on one of the sky islands enjoying a cup of coffee and a good book while wearing some of my purchases from Mischief’s 50% off sale, my new favorite heels from Periquita, and a brand new hairstyle from Exile. That looks like a pretty perfect day too.
