On the Move Again
It takes crap to hit the fan on Second Life for you to crave extreme change. Last time I went through so much on here I decided to change my shape and skin but I don't feel like doing that this time because I am happy with the way my avatar looks now. She could use a little bit of tweaking to look more like me in real life in the face area. Other than that, she is perfect and what I imagine myself looking like. I decided I missed owning land where I can have it in my name and set to my friend group so I did it. I knew that renting land with tier fees just totally sucked to the point that it took all my money in real life to keep up the rent. It took forever it seemed to find a land on mainland that I'd be happy to own without regrets. Hell, I have had enough regrets in the past couple of weeks that I've learned to think things over before I do anything. By having this land it puts me right smack dab into the range of Lindens I will spend per month. The great thing about owning land on the mainland is that no estate owner can just without warning close the estate so you have to move and feel like it was a waste of money. Not only that but the cost of it goes straight to your account where it is added to the cost you spend on premium membership. If I could have gotten more square mileage then I would have since I like the log cabin I have but i had to squeeze it into the plot of land. I had forgotten how much a pain in the butt rezzing a building can be as you move it about before saving it then taking the box back into inventory. I had a smaller cabin but the furniture was attached it which I was thinking the whole time "what kind of idiot attaches furniture to a home since people like to move the furniture around at least". I was not happy with that purchase and wish I could get my Lindens back. I ended up terraforming the land to death trying to get the cabin to fit better but all I ended up with was hitting barriers into another person's parcel so I just let it go. Bummed me out to have to get rid of the nice front porch on it but I had to in order for it to fit at all. After all that, I was thinking I should have just got two small cabins and let it be at that. I happy though. I need to buy a privacy screen of snowy trees for when neighbors will move in. The one thing I remember from owning all the land I have in the past is that people respect your privacy more than on rented houses or premium house which is what I desired. I didn't like having a neighbor bothering me when I had company although that is water under the bridge now. Here's to hoping this will be my final move on Second Life. I grow so tired of constantly moving.
