I’ve reworked my sim again to open 28 new shops! There are two sizes to pick from, one is a one story store, set for 200 prims, and runs 650/week.
The other store is a two story brownstone, and is set for 300 prims at 750/week.
Join *EMJ* Jewelry and Mall if you would like to rent!
The first week is free! Come by and get the pick of the litter!
Someone sent me a notecard a few weeks ago about wanting to add something to my jewelry. Figuring it was another lame brained scam, I read the notecard.
This person said he/she invented Perfume for SL. Now, I could be wrong…but last I checked, you couldn’t smell through SL. This person wanted to throw a script or something into my items to give the wearer the added effect of wearing perfume. I passed the notecard to my friends, who all thought the idea was hysterical, many saying, “Is this a joke?” only to be told…no, unfortunately, it’s real.
Well, I got an IM from the notecard sender yesterday, asking if I had the chance to review his/her creation. I told him/her no, and in not so uncertain terms that it was the most ridiculous idea evar. I didn’t want to have my items annoy people with spam, and become the new xcite style jewelry…an idea that is about 2 years past it’s prime. (talking bits, that is)
This person then said, well, when you make love in SL, you don’t actually do it, but you experience it with your senses…just like you would with my perfume.
mmkay.
Needless to say he/she thanked me for my time, and I waved. Polite, I have to admit, but too excited about something that is just a bit …out there.
Man…I can’t shake off this utter love/hate relationship I have with SL. It’s more on the latter recently. Bored with it, bored with trying to make people happy at my own expense, and most of all, tired of waiting. Waiting for what, I really don’t know. heh.
I took a few days off from SL, and it was great. I may start doing that more frequently. Since Ame left the game, I’ve not been motivated to do anything, and I haven’t. Lots of ideas, and even some action on them, but nothing truly released.
I’ll log in, and literally do nothing. Stand in my sim. Float in the sky. Watch the Tiny Empires scroll. Whee!
…Not intended to be a review, mind you…
I went out and bought the new Coldplay CD on Tuesday, Viva La Vida Or Death And All His Friends. When I buy a new CD, I usually listen to it over and over, making a judgement after i hear it a few times.
Well, i’ve listened to it for a couple days now, and well, I still dunno.
I rarely *love* a CD after the first listen or two, and Coldplay had one album that fit that category, Rush of Blood to the Head was definitely one of them. I bought x&y when it came out, and that album was what i call ‘good’.
Viva La Vida Or Death And All His Friends is different. Its got some good stuff in it, and some well, weird stuff. Some parts are “Coldplay does Abba” and its really kinda weird.
I see only one song that is even remotely commercial, which may have been what they were looking for, and that’s the title track.
This CD is also packaged weird. its a growing trend that I’ve noticed, and frankly, hate. It doesn’t come in a jewel case, but in a cardboard folder. Come on. Don’t cheap out on the packaging and still charge me full price. Besides, in a few weeks, the cardboards going to get all bent up and scratched up. At least with Jewels, you can replace them if they get too out of hand.
Ahh well. I’m hoping in a few more weeks this album will grow on me.
I’ve never understood why Flickr didn’t want us to put the ‘e’ in Flicker. I figure it was due to the fact that most people can’t spell on the intarwebnets. A new generation, whatnot.
Anywhoo, I was advised that I should start a Flickr group, and post new releases on it, and let others post their pics of them wearing *EMJ* Jewelry. So, I did.
Please feel free to join my Flickr group, and add your own pics or comment on those submitted. There’s a new ring out there that I have yet to release, waiting on…something…to release it.
Even if you don’t have a pic to submit, please join!
Here’s the link: http://www.flickr.com/groups/737608@N20/
Enjoy!
Alright, someone reminded me I have a blog today. they suggested I write something.
Well, hold on. I’m redoing a lot of things now, and will be releasing quite a few items here, refreshing some there…including two new gemstone options, and another metal coming….so I’m just adding those in my inventory, and doing a remodel of the interior of the store.
All coming soon. And some of you thought I just sat and neo-fished.
Oh…I have 6 openings on the sim for homes to rent…great views, great price, negotiable primmage, and an outstanding landlord. IM me for a personal tour.
Blame HBO on a night at 3 AM for this one.
Emo time. Click here to go elsewhere.
Ever feel like apologizing to the world, but you aren’t exactly sure for what you are apologizing? I’m moody. I’m not motivated. Pretty much miserable. Well, sorta.
I’ve made a new set, only to have it stall on my lack of motivation. (I know one person that will seriously kick my ass if she reads this, and deservedly so….sorry you.) I’ll get around to finishing it - one of these days.
My RL is in utter chaos ATM, details of which aren’t necessary here, but it all plays a part in this huge thing of the mood. I’ve had friends respect my wishes to stay distant recently….or they’ve accepted it. To be perfectly candid, I can only call maybe three people ‘close’ friends, and to an outsider’s view, those would be interpreted as ‘acquaintences’. That’s actually fine for me. I’ve decided I am jaded for the most part. If I let you in, congrats. No one gets in.
Been a crazy week. I’ve been listening to this song over and over. Not even sure why. It’s relaxing. I can close my eyes and just drift off elsewhere. I seem to need that escape.
SL’s become a ball and chain. A necessary evil. Multiple things are demanded of me from many directions, and sometimes you feel like you want to just say screw it, time for just me…then realize just you bores you and everyone around you. that’s been the case this week. I’m a boring guy I suppose.
Do you ever get used to the status quo? I suppose that’s the essential definition of complacency. It blinds you from other people’s attempts to make you happy. Ironically, at the same time, the negatives in things are amplified tenfold.
Jaded.
I’ve tossed aside trust for the most part. There’s too many here who can’t have it. Heck….we all have issues with it, myself included. I was speaking to a friend today and found out some history I would rather not have known. Trust kicked in, and well…yeah.
Do I have a point now? If so, I’ve forgotten it. I’m not even sure if this makes sense. This begs the question however, what do I want….?
A cure for male PMS. 
“And then I looked up at the sky, and saw the sun…and the way that gravity pushes on everyone. On everyone.”
Well, I’ve finished my sim, the homes are up, and filling up with tenants. Trying to be a good landlord, I try to meet each of the tenants.
Well, this one stood out….
<!--more But wait, there's more! -->
So, I have a renter that needed something, so I went over to greet her and see what I could do to help. Seems she wanted a teleporter from upstairs to the main level. No problem. As we greeted each other, we talked about a few things before I started to work, telling her how everything in the home works and such. So I then go upstairs to set up her TPer.
After testing it to make sure it works, I came back down and she was happy!
Then..she asked me….”ok, I have to ask…why only shoes? rofl”
Confused, I asked what she meant by that…
Well, apparently I appeared fully nude to her this whole time while only wearing Fallingwater’s City Walk Shoes (namedropper).
I swear I was fully clothed, edited appearance, and poof…there they appeared for her.
Good thing her plumbing worked.
Anywhoo, still have some ocean view spots left! I have a special going on…rent a month and get a week free. Also, those that rent and refer a renter get $1500 in free jewelry of their choice at my shop. Come on by! http://slurl.com/secondlife/Southern%20Paradise/74/70/22
Something got into my crawl today. I was speaking with a new friend of mine who was telling me about this Skin Fest thing that’s coming up soon.
Having been in the Jewelry Expo this past year, and enjoying it much more than I thought I would, I thought a skin expo would be a good idea. Besides, it gave LOTS of jewelers a chance to show off their wares, from the big hitters to us little folk. Everyone was invited who wanted to join in.
Well, enter Skin Fest. (Granted, I don’t even know if that’s the ‘official’ name…) My friend was telling me about a certain skin maker who’s been making skins for over a year and a half and asked early February to be included in the upcoming festivities.
Nothing has happened. Well, take that back. Two weeks go by and then two days ago, said designer was informed “There are no more spots left…try to get in next year.”
Poor form. So, I am going to help promote her showing tomorrow, Saturday March 1, at 1:00 SL time. http://slurl.com/secondlife/Simuality/31/203/35/?title=Avatrait%20Exclusive%20Show
Come by if you have the time and support Dae!
And those of you in charge of the Skin Fest? Make room for one more designer who asked almost a month ago to be in your fair. It is only fair.
