I can haz a Second Life plz?

tropical-tranquilityDespite my previous entry of explaining my recent come back to the metaverse… well, I’ve hardly been in it.

Sometimes this has been through choice, but for the majority of the time it hasn’t. I just haven’t had the time, and I worry sometimes that this might have an effect on those in-world that I hold dearest to me. Fortunately they’re all very understanding and supportive, however, I can’t help but have this little niggly feeling at the back of my mind that I’m being a Very Bad Friend.

For the times when I choose not to be in Second Life, I think this is more a case of being so used to *not* being there, if that makes sense? My RL certainly takes priority over SL and anything else computer related right now, and I think this has been going on for so long that I’ve ‘broken the habit of being in SL’, so to speak. This obviously isn’t a bad thing really… but as mentioned above, I just hope me in-world friends and loved ones realise this.

For those that are wondering, I’m pretty damn good!

I received my first marked paper back on my uni course this year, and the score was rather pleasing :) Although it’s very self-rewarding and confidence boosting to know that I *can* do this well, it’s also neverending. I constantly seem to be studying, or thinking about studying. This tied with parenting and other general day to day happenings, there just isn’t room for much else until I can actually get a good little while to spend on myself. Even then it seems to be spent reading fictional books of my choice, or spending time with a friend.

But I’m going to try and make a little more effort to make time for Second Life. It’s something that I’ve definately wanted to be involved with more frequently than I am,  it’s just also one of those things that I think ‘Oh, I’ll log in tomorrow. I want to do this tonight’. As a result I have an unfinished lot of land that really needs terraforming some more, and making homey for myself and Ayami (how glad am I that she still has her own place to live in 0.o).  It would also make the rent worth it each month!

So it’s back to DJing on Friday’s at The Crown & Pearl. At least there’s a few hours there a week that I get to spend in-world catching up with friends and playing some good tunes :)
