I blame Meara

I've heard a lot about Plurk and thought it sounded perfect, though hopefully not too time consuming. I figured I would check it out "sometime", then Meara posted her link.. and now... I appear to be signed up too.

my plurk page

[EDIT: I guess I did the link wrong. My plurk name is nikkidancer.]

Thanks Meara.. I think. lol

Oh, and I'm a total dork about asking to be added to friends lists.. so please - feel free to add me - the more the merrier :)

Slacker!

I've been doing... stuff. Stuff other than blogging it seems. Just cause I hate seeing me on people's blog rolls with that glaring 'hey, slacker, you haven't updated in five freak'in days!' notation... I'll post a few pics and pretend it's a real post. Enjoy... or... whatever lol

at the lingerie expo. I love these chairs... and will one day post pics of me enjoying my very own at home. Oh, and I love those these shoes too... thanks love!



swimming in the ocean near my place. sorry the butt seems to be very boyant...



I sent Ghilt an ecard for his birthday - with five lovely pictures on it, some fun, some sexy, some romantic. and his favorite? riding this bicycle built for two lol



Ghilt is always full of surprises. Like when he showed up on horseback at my door and invited me to hop on behind him :)))



more surprises... I'm standing in my home last night and have a package drop on me. good thing I unpacked him quickly! isn't he cute?!? he scampers around and eats little acorns that he temp rezzes around him. thanks again love!

Five Things

Meme time, courtesy of Cen...

RL

1. I am shy. Or at least I am until I feel somewhat accepted by someone, then when I feel safe to do so, I`ll crack my jokes and I`m told I can be very funny sometimes. Then I get all shy and socially awkward again.

2. I am a total animal lover. I have a small zoo, consisting of a cat, lovebird (no conflict, the cat understands the bird is part of the family, and she`s never shown any interest in the bird that way at all, even when I introduced them face to face). What else.. oh, a chinchilla, and an aquarium. If I had a house rather than an apartment and was home more, I`d probably have a dog too, but it wouldn't be fair to the dog to have one where I am right now. When I`m out, I squee at the birds, especially if they`re little and like to come up to nibble crumbs you scatter for them.

3. I was an army cadet - at age 12 lol. The recruiters came to our school and showed a video and it looked like such cool adventures. I lasted a year. My mother believed in letting my try things within reason. The within reason ended when she caught a 16 year old boy I had a crush on putting the moves on me at the end of the year dance. It was a short lived romance - the next time I saw him he gave me the shoulder. Not sure if it was because he got in a boatload of trouble with our superiors, or if it was because he already seeing a much older woman of 14 who was rumoured to be putting out, or because I didn`t know how to french kiss (dude.. I was TWELVE).

4. I lost the battle against a mega truck when I was a 16 year old pedestrian. I guess I won in a way - I was told I was lucky to have survived, and that I was lucky not to have had a serious brain injury from it. To this day, I have a small lump just under my right hip, and my right arm doesn`t straighten 100% - not noticeable unless I point it out. Or use it as an excuse against a poor bowling score or something.

5. I`ve been in a movie. About a Playboy Bunny. Ok, it was in a background shot at an amusement park - they were shooting footage of everyone on the ride. I noticed they were filming and `acted` for them, showing the camera just how much fun I was having on the ride. When we got off the ride, they were asking everyone to sign release forms. I was too young to really sign a binding legal document, but whatever, I signed it... and a couple years later I saw me when they showed the movie on television. My screentime was probably one, maybe two seconds. No credits or residual pay. I need a new agent!

SL:

1. See RL, No.1

2. I am a horrible typist. Typo city, and I often interchange the use of your and you`re, which really drives me crazy because I know which is which and don`t have to even think about which is the correct form to use. I`m not dumb, just my fingers are... they just automatically type wrong whenever I use them...

3. I have an insane inventory with TONS of clothes. Yet it often takes me a good 20 minutes, or more, to put together an outfit before I leave my home. If I pick up a freebie anywhere, I can never wear it in the first week, and after that week is up, it`s lost in my inventory somewhere...

4. I feel very awkward whenever I`m in someone`s shop and they happen to be there. Like they`re just watching and waiting to see if I buy something so they can buy food for their prim baby this week and keep their electricity from being shut off that night. Of course, having a designer constantly harping at how great a pair of pants she`s selling goes with the top I just bought on sale fuels this irrational thinking. As do the rental agents who IM you as soon as you enter a property offered for rent, running their sales pitch. I appreciate knowing I can IM you with any questions, but no, just because I came back to look at more of the properties two days later does not mean I`m back itching to rent. It means I want to look at more of the places I didn`t get to see the first day!

5. I`m a very indecisive shopper. If there`s a sale one, and 12 colors offered of a particular dress, it can take me ten minutes of agonizing before picking which color or colors to get. Oh, and it took me MONTHS to settle on the house I wanted to buy, and it will take days or even weeks before I get all the furniture picked out for it. I have no idea how Sai does it... but props to her!

Home, Sweet Home

Between very special date nights and fussing over the purchase of a new house (and the difficulties SLag caused in rezzing it!), I've not had much time to post - or comment on other blogs... sorry : - lately. Not much explanation for now - other than..




I had enough of my empty shack with just me and the cats (above picture). So...




I have a pretty house now :))) and still enough prims to do some serious furniture shopping :)








that`s it.. it's late and I must do that evil RL thing they call sleep!

Happy Birthday Part 2

It's been a while since I've posted (except for my 4:00 am. post), and even longer since I put up any pictures!

So, with blogger being a bit more cooperative, I expand on my Happy Birthday Ghilt post.

Date in Costa Rica:

Catching a hotair balloon ride...


and later, a hovercraft...




Using on of his gifts, on our date in Costa Rica (not the scuba gear, but the swim HUD - which is a lot of fun, even if not 100% geared to scuba):


and after making sure he enjoyed riding horseback..


I finally bought my cowboy a horse!


(yes, we did more, but we didn't get pictures.. lol)

Birthdays Everywhere!

wow.. it's 4:00 a.m. and I've just given Ghilt the last of his birthday kisses (for this birthday that is *smiles*)

ok, so I was going to do a quickie post with some pictures, but blogger is being a biatch right now and won't let me upload, so you'll just have to use your imaginations (oh.. you pervs.. *blushes*)

We had a ton of fun, and I'm glad things went as well as they did. I came up with a few things I think he enjoyed (ok... enough already, it was clean fun, really...lol)

My regret was that I totally missed Ali's birthday party. Sorry, gals, I tried, but I just couldnt make it. This was a special birthday for Ghilt, and I was too busy running around, and then he was on, and I was all his :)

Anyway, happy birthday Ali, (and I hear, Tymmerie), and especially..

Happy Birthday Love :)
