I’m a little slow this week with posting up pictures from my past weekend camping trip and excursion to Newport Cunneticuit, my big fish from the East River… and soon to come our fabulously expensive dinner tonight at PerSe. Yes, I purposely booked it and yes its megga dosh about $250 for a fixed menu witout tax, wine and all the other NYC flowery taxes. This occation calls for Jimmy to come out of the box and make an appearece. FINALLY!
So will have pictures coming up really soon!
I’m delighted to do something different today. Someone invited us to go fishing down the Hudson River. If I recall my previous fishing trips it involved sitting around watch the men just hold on to their rods – like as in fishing poles ok! and us ’simple minded’ lasses just watched. So usually I would just have some beers keep asking why we haven’t cought any fish yet!
This is when the guys would come up with lame excuses that there isn’t any fish in this river blah blah blah… excuses excuses, and when they DO catch a tiny fish they think they act like they cought a Barracuda.
Anyway that’s my experience with fishing. This time its for REALZ YA’LL! Even I’m going to do it! Thought it’ll be a boat with people anchoring their poles and sitting chatting and drinking beers while watching the sunset. (thought I wouldn’t mind doing that too..) After checking out the website, its serious fishing in the Hudson.
I’m not sure how many of you have heard of this portal called Second Life. Karen told me about it and if you decide to join come look for me. My name is Sheilz Tomsen! Hahahah You can create your first name but you’ll have to choose from a list of last names listed out for you to use.
Its actually pretty cool the fist DAY I spent checking it out! Yes I was on it for almost a whole day just playing around and getting Sheilz into character. Sheilz is my “Avatar” and you can change every detailed feature of your avatar, cheekbones, lips, hair, nails, eyebrows… everything. You can even buy islands, watch live concerts all with real money but with an different exchange rate (linden dollars) of course and just create your second life there!
I’ve not done much or gone into actually buying land and having kids there yet. My real life isn’t that boring to spend that much time playing this. Website give lots of explanations on how it works but best is just to sign-up get a character and just test it out. There’s some initial downloading involved but it’ll only take you about 5 mins. Let me know how you go and maybe you can join me and Deby buy an island and get naked and charge a fortune for property!! We’ll make a KILLING!
