Nice Camping Excursion

Sitting in a courtyard drinking coffee where we were making the equivalent of 1/100th of a cup of Starbucks coffee.

The one nice thing about camping spots is that the clientele are sometimes universal. (Such as tonight's.)

SL/Morning Fidget at Bishop's Coffee House

This couch had a "fidget" poseball which made it look like you were trying to relax (hands behind your head, etc.), but meanwhile your legs were constantly moving and you readjusted yourself on the seat. For me, it was the perfect place while I sipped two real life double expressos this morning...

(The thing behind my head is a coffee machine I am holding.)

SL/420/Ramblethon

Invention
I want to invent a wristwatch that uses the hairs on my wrist and my freckles to keep the time instead of a clunky timepiece.

New Band Name:
Bedrock Feet

I want new sipping noises for a wide variety of coffees.
Sip sip noise: when it's really hot.
Gulp Gulp: after 10 creamers cooling it down.
Echo Echo: when your nose is down the cup and you insist on talking.
NOTES: The first sip of the morning will have an "ahhhh" sound.
Italic text for Italian roasts; Bold for darker roasts.

Ponderable...
Can I swear on somebody else's mother if I use my left hand?

TREES

Someone needs to invent...
A tree in my yard that keeps getting taller with each passing day...

My dance floor:
Will have a tree in the middle with a tree fort on top.
Leaves will change colors, including the psychedelic ones.
The bark will also growl.

Getting the most out of both worlds
I was in a rush this morning so I asked my dance partner to dress up as today's New York Times while I sipped my coffee.

Overheard while actively using Focus (zoom) key:
"Sorry, was out of my body; didn't hear you."

SL/Overheard

Overheard at discussion...

"I want an animation of me using the word 'Education' as a sword."

"Why must we always talk in the same font? I want to Trebuchet you for awhile."

"Next meeting can you arrange it so the topic floats overhead and we try to grasp it?"

"The coffee cup is the peace pipe of the SL universe."

Second Life/Yetrates Night

A Spanish ship.
...docked near this delightful tree house.
l
l
This tree house is the best thing since sliced bread.
l
l
l
Until I spotted the killer whale.
l
Doing flips.
Closer, I saw that there was a shark in water too.
l
A very unsafe place for kids.
l
l
l
My first reaction was to zoom out and look for kids...
l
...Or anyone else for that matter.
I saw people flying around--out of harm's way.

'Flying around,' likely because the town had certain areas above sea level.
l
l
l
l
l
l
Then I saw the bird.
l
l
ll
l

Perhaps the greatest thing ever.

Several things about the place intrigued me.



l
l
l
l
l
But I finally had to leave.
--
l
l
l
Back at DragonFly Oasis. A street urchin performs.
She is astonishingly good.
But makes a so-so living.
I see gold coins in her guitar case.
What would happen if I tried to focus in on one?
Amazing.
Focusing out I see this incredible tail.
What a dominating tail.
What a fantastic creature!
Then I see another tail.
Another reason to zoom out.
l
l
l
l
l
l
l
l
l
It's...a wolf.
A wolf who's in heat for the fox.
(I think.)
l
l
l
l
The wolf finally settles down on its haunches.
My curiosity takes over.
Again with the zoom...
l
l
l
l
l
The wolf beats a hasty retreat.
l
l
l
l
l
l
Yetrates joins me in Oasis.
l
I suggest we choose a random Event.
l
l
l
We end up in Soho.
I can't stop nodding. Something she gave me makes me nod
compulsively.
I tell her: "I can't stop nodding my head in agreement with
you."
l
l
l
She spontaneously hugs me.
l
The nodding stops.l
l
l
l
North Beach, it's called.
By the ocean.
Steamer deck chairs.
l
l
l
We sit.
l
l
l
l
l
l
l
Restless again.
Time to Teleport.
T. T. T.
She wants to take me to this pot farm. (She IS Dutch, by the way :))
l
I'm all in favor of this.
l
I follow her into this cozy place called Rizzy's coffee shop.
I'm still in my recliner position.
From my point of view only my slippers have made it.
The slippers lead the way.
They have a nice chat with Rizzy.
Rizzy deals in pot.
Every stoner's dream: to see fast multiplying marijuana plants.
(Not so many that it crowds out good conversation...)
Rizzo was nice enough to put my advert on his wall.
