Downtime Blues and Other Things

I have a RL exam tomorrow on Environmental Physics.. Entropy, Thermodynamics, Atmospherics, Radiation, Carnot Cycles.. that kinda thing. I've done my studying, and I'm well prepared. My RL bf goes out to visit some friend. I have a perfect chance to get on SL.. and its down for 'maintenance' or whatever the hell it is that they do during these updates.

On a lighter note...

Nicholai informs me by means of an IM from last night that the blog we are going to be co-authoring is set up and ready. All he needs to do is add me and we can begin creating an amazing blog telling the story of our lives together. Will put a link in here as soon as its ready.

Oh yeah...

We are buying some land!?

My friend Abbott has a 2048 sqm plot of private sim land next to his 4096. He was offering it for L$19,999 including a house and stuff. He offered it to me for L$17,500 without objects and I was kinda hesitant.. thats alot for me and Nicho to pay each, especially as his shop hasn't been earning much. I said to Abbott we would think about it... and that I wouldn't want him to lose money on it. He said making money wasn't his aim (although I kinda thought it was originally) and I said, (in possibly the greatest piece of haggling in the history of the world) .. 'Oh really? What's the lowest price you could accept?'

'L$14,000'

We will hopefully be moving in over the next week or so, as soon as I can add some funds to my Paypal account for payment of the $15 monthly tier. A permanent home was the one thing my kitten wanted that I couldn't give him... and now we have one of our own. I can't thank my friends enough for putting up with me being such a damn freeloading hobo :D (yeah I admit it was getting a bit too much).

So, now my kitten can start work on building his dream house - as long as it's tropical (damn covenant) and I know he has such amazing plans for it. 400+ prims is easily enough to build something spectacular and have enough left over to fill the bed with as many poses as one could possibly need :)

House warming will be in a few weeks, assuming nothing goes wrong.. (>.>) (<.<) (>.>)
