Sorry I haven't been posting much of late, making the assumption you come here often enough to notice. But I have been distracted by what so many folks call "real life." Or just RL. This time of year, due to my work and other factors, often has a lot to keep me distracted and stressed. But this year has been especially awful. In the last few weeks I've been ill, my RL partner has had to have surgery, my cat got sick and had to be put down and then...To cap it all off, we had to put down our dog as well. With all that, on those occasions that I've had the time to post here, or even log into SL, I've often not had the energy or inclination.
One thing I've noticed about SL over the years I've been visiting it, many folks are...Let's call them testy. I'm not a peaceful upbeat joyful soul by nature. I'm more inclined to angry or melancholy. But I've never seen any reason to inflict those things on others just because that's how I feel. So, unless I just really need a distraction from RL that I can't find in a book, movie or other similar activity, when I'm in a bad mood I try to stay out of Second Life. Maybe some other folks should consider a similar choice?
But lest you think I'm playing holier than thou, I will confess I have logged in after a bad day, thinking I had it all under control and then subsequently gone off the deep end. To anyone who has had to suffer through that, my apologies.
All that said, here's to hoping we all have a better September.
