Last week, I ran a workshop about disability and kink at my home community. I initially did it because admittedly, I was a little salty about some comments that had been made in regards to my health and my ability to theoretically do things. The idea that real life comes first, but I should be… Continue reading 203. How to… accept it.

196. How to… let it all out.
It's been a crazy couple weeks, which means I've neglected this blog a little more than I would like, but I'm back! All three or four of you who read this are hopefully excited about that.

190. Pro-Tip: If at first it doesn’t rez…
Y'all, the Universe did not want me to get this photo out... all of which looked like fire on my screen and the dumpster variety of fire when I opened them up in Photoshop to have a better look. There was at lease one thing in every single one of the photos I took that… Continue reading 190. Pro-Tip: If at first it doesn’t rez…
172. How to… smile at your reflection in the mirror.
It's inevitable. There you are, minding your own business and fawning over the latest release at Salt&Pepper or any number of brands in Second Life that make us question our definitions of wants vs. needs, and it happens: Hi there! Nice avatar! I'm new to this game and could use 278 of those Linden things,… Continue reading 172. How to… smile at your reflection in the mirror.
166. How to… appreciate what you’ve got.
I've said it before... and I'll never stop saying it. There are some people who come into your life at exactly the right times. They're just there one day - seemingly so suddenly, when you need them the most. Not everyone who comes into your life is going to be there for good, or even… Continue reading 166. How to… appreciate what you’ve got.
157. Pro-tip: Know when it’s time to say goodbye… and not just to this crappy year.
It's almost that time, y'all. We've almost made it to the end of the year, and if yours has been anything like mine, you're probably exhausted, carrying on by sheer force of will simply because you can see the finish line just ahead. It's almost over... and hopefully, we can say a nice goodbye to… Continue reading 157. Pro-tip: Know when it’s time to say goodbye… and not just to this crappy year.
156. Sometimes the scariest things turn out to be the most worthwhile…
I am going to let you all in on a secret: this year - or the last several months, at least - has been firmly in my, "this scares the shit out of me" box in real life. Let me unpack that box a little bit. I think we're all pretty well aware of the… Continue reading 156. Sometimes the scariest things turn out to be the most worthwhile…
155. The important things this holiday season have nothing to do with ribbons and bows…
I know we all get excited when our favorite stores - SL or otherwise - have these big sales. We all flock there and try to get our favorite things. We wait for releases at special events and we get so excited. I am one of those people. Trust me. I literally just got back… Continue reading 155.

151. It’s okay to not be okay sometimes…
So, the other day, I got a new phone. I was all excited because there was this whole ordeal where my order got cancelled and I had to go to the store to pick the phone up. I got it home, and started the process of transferring my data over. The only contact that transferred… Continue reading 151. It’s okay to not be okay sometimes…
144. Even your favorite song will get on your nerves if you keep it on repeat too long (PS: this is true of everything else, too!)
They say the definition of insanity is repeating the same action over and over again expecting different results. Well, I don't know who "they" is, but whoever they are, I think they may have had a Second Life account at some point. I've spent most of the past few days in such a state of… Continue reading 144.
