Inventory Clearance Sale?

Well I am not sure about the sale part - but the inventory clearance has to take place. And I am dreading it!

I have over 30K things in my inventory to go through. I almost had everything all sorted out and in nice and neat folders and folders inside folders and I made boxes and put things in boxes to save inventory space.

But then something happened and it was like in one of those old comedy shows in black and white - the ones that show people going on vacation and they have so much in their suitcase they have to sit on it to get it closed... but they fall off and the suitcase opens and everything comes flying out.... well that is what happened to my inventory.

I can't find anything. I don't know what is the pretty dress or the one that has a pretty name but is super ugly. Do I really need 20 copies of the TV remote control? I have 7 copies of the medieval canopy bed that has the sleep script on it... On it- they made two clear prims and put a scrip to make you lay on your back. your head doesn't even touch the pillows. and I have 7 beds like that. all because i pull one out and one stays in inventory. I pick the bed back up because we are doing something to the building then I pull the bed out but this time I now have one bed in the room and two in my inventory... Same thing with fireflies.

I need to clear all that stuff out of my inventory - I need to then go through my poses folder and organize that - I have poses all over my inventory - scattered hither, tither and yon. I need them in ONE place. I need to go through my clothes. OMG my clothes. I have to go through what I have and get rid of over half of what I have. maybe save a piece or two like gloves, stockings or hats. Go through my shoes and jewelry.

I wonder - Can you have a yard sale in Second Life? I know I can't hold one at my house - it is listed in my covenant - I wonder if it would be worth it to rent a booth somewhere - are there flea markets in Second Life?

Now that I am thinking on this - I have so much in my inventory --(even a kitchen sink!) Someone may want to buy some of it (the stuff that can be transferred that is). Would you pay 5L for an outfit that may have never been worn - just taken out of the box?

I am not looking forward to the task at hand. I would rather be out shopping, dancing or hanging out with my friends. I guess I need to actually set aside time on my calendar to work on this - make myself busy and just work on it for a couple of days. Other wise this inventory is going to be too heavy to carry around soon.

Happy Monday Everyone!

Crazy is as Crazy does.

And I have been told I am crazy. Have I done crazy things? Answer would be Yes.

Like flying as high as I could with a flight feather with my parachute on then putting the feather away and falling. it was fun. but more fun was falling WITH OUT the parachute!

I love just finding strange and unusual things in Second Life. I did not know you could cliff dive or para sail. those really aren't crazy. Now doing the chocobo gesture and running around IS crazy. and getting dressed up as a huge crab and doing the chocobo gesture is even crazier!

hmmm I know I did a lot of crazy things in SL - I did sit on dinosaur eggs waiting for them to hatch. - they didn't. oh I ran on a giant hamster wheel once. that was odd

I guess I haven't done as many crazy things as I thought I did. I better get busy. there are a lot of crazy things to do out there and I want to do them. LOL

What to write when you don't know what to write

Honestly I have no idea what to write about! OK I will just start to ramble and see where it takes us... these are the fun posts because my brain is very good at wandering!

I have discovered Plurking. For those of you who have never heard of Plurking it is like Tweeting but better. I have a Twitter account too - but since Plurk - I rarely go there anymore - plus I have my Plurk update my Twitter account! Honestly I am so happy I joined Plurk. I have met so many wonderful Plurkers - and we have wonderful conversations. Almost all my Plurkie Plurk Friends are from Second Life so there is a lot of talk about our Second Lives and some about our Real or First Lives. Some of my friends in Plurk have become friends of mine in the Second Life Universe, I have brought some of my Second Life friends over to Plurk (I wonder how many times I can say Plurk in this one paragraph.....) and some Plurk Friends were already on my friends list and my friends list at Flickr. So, if you are reading this and you are wondering just what a Plurk looks like here is the link.

So did you count how many times I said it? I haven't the vision I used to have so I didn't count. LOL

Well I don't remember if I wrote about the wonderful property I purchased that is just beautiful. I love it. I bought a house.. a house. I have bought them before. In fact I had a beach house. I loved it too but when I moved and became a wanderer for the few months I took off - before I bought this land - it is in my inventory. and with this land it doesn't go with my new property so in the inventory it stays. So I went house hunting. I wanted just a small house - not a 1 room job though. I looked and looked. My pixelated feet and RL hands were very sore from wandering all the house selling companies. I needed a house to match the land, a cottage, I had seen a few that I liked but for some reason I went for the biggest one out of the ones I liked. Darn it... the house is huge. It takes up almost the whole lot! what do I need two bedrooms for? I mean I have beds but I never use them! right now the only things in the house is my TV-DVD player and radio and a sofa. that is all in one room on the first floor - the other side of the house and the whole upstairs is empty. EMPTY. I am debating if I want to go back and get that cute little white cottage with the red doors and windows. I don't know. I am just not sure. My brain hurts from trying to make this decision. Bleh.

Well, speaking of brain hurts - I am really meaning it. I have one of those Migraines I get a few times a week. So until next time -

Be good........

.............But not too good!

Hasta Pasta!

I'm Back

Hey everyone!
Well I am back, for honest & for true! I have been in Second Life almost every day and it felt great! I am making new friends and I am still modeling. I am with two agencies, one is is active and I love everyone there. Yes, it is Look Elite. :-)

My friend and photographer, Divine, is currently taking some time for RL. Oh, Don't worry, I happen to know another photography studio that is THE BEST,Black Label Productions, and I am not just saying that because it owned by two of my friends, Laura18 Streeter & Bourbon Zenakova, You can find their studio on Bourbon Street in the French Quarter.
Well for now I have to sign off - I have a lot to do both on Plurk and in the SL Universe and the human has a few things to do IRL.

Hasta Pasta!
