Sometimes hope comes from the small, silly moments
This week the Monday Meme from Strawberry Singh was provided by her friend Winter Jefferson, and it’s relevant to me on a lot of levels. Strawberry is dealing with the end of a RL relationship that has left her heartbroken, and while it’s not quite the same as the loss I’ve been working through there are parallels, and I certainly feel for her. The meme this week asks us about what gives us hope, and asks us:
Take a few moments on your blogs or chosen social media to tell us about a time you faced your own personal nadir. When were you at your lowest point? How did you pull through and triumph to become the dazzling specimen of humanity you are today? When you reached out… who was there to help you back up again? (more…)

The blog meme for this week from Strawberry Singh asks what helpful tools we’ve found to make using SL easier. I don’t use a lot of different HUDs, but I am partial to the ones I’ve found so this was a quick and easy meme to do. (more…)

Here I go into the first full week of 2014. This is the week I said I would drag myself out of my cocoon and begin doing things, this is the week I was going to start everything fresh and take charge of my life. Have I done this? Well… I’m going to blame the sub zero temperatures on my inactivity. Too cold to think today, it was much more enjoyable to stay inside under a blanket, and wander around in world for a while.
We were looking for some ice cream… I think we took a wrong turn somewhere…

I’d love to be a science nerd, I was thinking about that last night as I wandered around the solar system. I’ve never given a lot of thought to where I fall in the whole geeks vs nerds debate, but I always felt nerdy in school. I was a bookworm, and socially awkward doesn’t begin to describe me… socially backward, maybe? Does that incorporate elements of dorkiness? Ah, who knows. I’m just content to follow my interests without worrying too much about the labels.
I may not know quite what to call myself but I’ll give the Geeky Meme a shot. The instructions from Strawberry Singh: (more…)
