So I'm sure a few of you are wondering what I've been up to... well let's see...
I've been spending a lot of time lately on Second Life (Cyan Rayna there BTW). I have been enjoying it though. My avatar is a kid avatar and I have been doing stuff that's just perfect for a kid. Like the last two days and friend and I have spent time exploring the reaches of Space. It's really cool and tons of free stuff there. Joined the Cub Scouts there as well. I don't know what it is about SL but I have really enjoyed it lately. I think it's because I actually started hanging out with other kid avatars there. That and I got a whole lot of new friends there too. It seems like another thing I am obsessing about in reality but in truth it's a neat graphical chat room and makes it much more fun to actual be able to do something without having to do something. I mean Sunday I went to a real Italian Church as a field trip with one of the groups and it was awesome. I mean no where near as impressive as it would be IRL but it was as if we were there though. That and getting various different clothes one there so much easier and cheaper than IRL too.
Anyway, yesterday we went to the bank to see about a home loan and talked on the phone to their specialist. We were hoping they'd call us back yesterday but haven't heard anything. Hope we get a decent amount. I'm not really sure what to expect with it though. I never thought that we would do a home loan over the phone so it threw me off and now don't know what to think about it. Should I be nervous, should I be hopefully, should I be scared even, I don't know. I think I'm just waiting in anticipation good or bad.
Started to go to the gym again last week. This time I thought of a different approach. Rather than going after work when I really don't want to I decided that I would try eating my lunch before lunch and going to the gym then. I actually like doing it this way. I think it's because I still have to be downtown and I usually get bored at lunch time so it's something to do. It makes me not hate going to the gym because after work all I want to do is go home and relax. And keeps what I am doing at the gym consistent.
I decided to start planning things for the WCBT as well. I made myself (with their approval) the minor events planner (or as they like to call it Julie the Cruise Director). I felt like I haven't really been doing much within the group and thought this would be something good to do at least. I haven't, though, thought of something to do this weekend, which if I do it the way I want to should be two weeks after the bar meet. I think for a "new" start we could all go see a movie so I can have a better chance to plan something else for next month (that and it gives me time to spend a little time in Reality and out of SL for a bit lol).
We also just got a PS3. And before you call me a game geek (which I am anyway) we got it for the Blu-ray player. I mean really why pay 399 for a player when you can get a better one with more options and that can update itself for the same price. So far I like the system even though there aren't any real games for it (except to download... I love Loco Roco). And there is a huge difference in video quality between DVD and Blu-ray with this machine. I'm so glad we got it.
So I think that's about it. I will try and update more often again. Sorry it's been so long but as you can see with me it goes in spurts and in truth can't really talk about nothing when nothing happens lol.
