Eek! Shrieking Metal!!

Okay.  That’s it.  Time for some real science fiction stuff here – “Beam me up, Scotty!”

Waaaahhh!  I wanna live in Second Life (SL.)  At least in SL if I break something, I can go buy another real cheap, or in the worst case scenario, I can delete it from my inventory because it really wasn’t that necessary anyways.  Or better yet, if I crash, I can just log off and log back on again.

Screeecch!  Back to reality, or Real Life (RL) as us SL’ers affectionately (or not so affectionately) call it.  Garr!  I did crash today, but not the kind where I can just log off and log back on.  I <cry> hurt my poor little car today and that of a coworker.  Can you say “accident?”  How about “Bonehead?”   I know… better yet, “Are you a real blond?”

Yup.  I did it.  End of my day, I’m tired and I pull out of my parking lot to go home.  Of course, normally our parking lot isn’t very full but it was today and I cut the wheel to sharp and did a nice grinding motion against my coworkers car.  :-(   Damn good thing we’re good friends or she probably would have strangled me on the spot.  Still, nonetheless, I feel like crap – left my paint smears on her car and hers on mine.   Ack!  Now does that suck or what?  I wanna be able to click my “Edit” button and go and redo the paint job.  *sigh*

So, I think I will toddle off to SL today and take solace in the fact that I cannot really do much damage to anything other than my pride when I accidently detach my hair and can’t find it for a half an hour.  Damn!

“Scotty… can you give me any more power?  I need that transport now!”
