Yesterday was NOT GOOD, but today was ok and Iwent to jin shin, grocerralisationering, and did a load of washing, Now I'm pooped. Just went in Second Life where I decided that things must be better for people (we've had major woes since Griefer Sunday and the point release) - my informal view based upon the amounts of things I sell. It's been strangely up-and-down but all of a sudden yesterday there was a surge. The surge (I think) was just the people who didn't buy while things were wonky all coming good on the same day (there was an update yesterday that seemed to help things a lot) and deciding to shop. Today is the same. Then I thought, "Oh, but isn't there supposed to be a newspaper article mentioning me..." and looked up the Metaverse Messenger, but the article isn't out yet, so that's good. I'd attribute this in part to the article if it were out. So - from my guesswork I'd say people are doing all right. It's been touch and go for a bit. I didn't have huge problems but I sympathise with those who did (or do).

An Aussie, Midnite R, bought my delphiniums - the first sale. I asked her if the flowers were all right, and she replied that they were. I'm glad about that. The objects that spawn the particle flowers are tiny and I was worried in case they'd be easily lost. I keep trying to get someone to open a garden accoutrements shop so I can contribute things (I don't really want to do it myself). I tried to get PetGirl to do it - heh. So far I seem to be easily resistable.

Did a custom tent texturing, yesterday, and started a strange upper garment that I'm not sure how to define. It looks a bit like a space commander uniform, but I need to beat on it some moreto turn it into something I like.

Yesterday was the anniversary of Elf Clan, so I went for the last hour (in my sicky state) and saw nice fireworks with Catherine Wheels and other things, and an exhibit of spell-casting which included things like Rain of Fire (red cloud forms and drops fireballs all over), levitation (someone gets lifted up into the air), and a rather cool thing with rotating swords that spin around a targeted avatar's middle as copious amounts of red particle blood spews out. Very nice.
