Another strange week. A fellow MP3Unsigned artist, SlimGirlFat, apeared on TV's Richard & Judy this week talking about [the internet thingy] Second Life. Slimmie owns an island in SL where musicians can perform their music live. I was strangely drawn to the place, so I downloaded the program and set myself up...
It's now been about 3 or 4 days and i seem to be getting hooked! Not only do I look a damn sight better in tight leather pants in SL, I actually have a full head of hair and no belly! Hurrah! It's a strange place indeed and might adictive. I find myself in an Irish pub called The Blarney Stone chatting to people, dancing (again, something I can't do in real life), drinking Magners and listening to music. All the time feeling guilty that I really do have better things to do with my spare time...
Anyhow, the Nina Silvert CDs turned up (second time lucky), so I'll be trying to something interesting with a couple of her tracks.
Holiday plans are going great. Got me a sun hat, new manbag, loads of blank video tapes. Can't wait!
