Beachin’ it!

http://Beachin' it

I’m heading off to the beach today in RL, and all I can say is that it takes an awful lot more work than on the grid.  Inworld there’s no driving, no traffic, no lotions, no red flags… all it takes for a perfect time at the beach is a sensational bikini, sunglasses, some kind of floatie, flip flops, and a hat… then a quick TP to find my perfect spot in the sun!  Sighs… if only it was this easy in RL… and if only I looked this good!

Ready for my close-up

Sometimes I wonder if the ability to continually change our look makes us happier in Second Life or adds new pressure to keep updating and be better.  I know that I’m not fully satisfied… even though I THINK I have finally achieved my initial goal of going to a mesh head — my original look, only better! But still I know that there will continue to be tweaks and new heads along the way; certainly as the technology continues to change, I will evolve right along with it.  But at this point in time, Sandy is definitely my new every day head (and no, I’m not taking bets on how long it will last).  And unlike my pre-mesh days, I DO change skins constantly, depending on the look I’m trying to achieve.  My skin of the day — Bali — is a beauty that really shows off the glorious details of the head (I used the Bali brows; all I did was add freckles) — and she’s available for half-off at the FitMesh Plaza Event.
