Stats...

I read someone's advice a long while back that said not to enable stats because they would be frustrating, it didn't bother me like that as I'm always surprised when people read this anyway, writing it more for me than you I'm afraid.
I think the stats are quite interesting and although I know that coutry shown does not necessarily mean the same as viewer location, I have been fascinated to see the countries that appear - seeing China come up was a real buzz.
Anyway, today the page views turned into 4 figures which I find that amazing in the 9 months this has been up.
So, whatever insomniac meanderings have brought our paths to cross, hello and it's been good to meet you.

"I like your dress"......

......and so it began.
That was exactly 2 years ago today.
There have been the usual hiccups, the normal things, but we talk – carefully, attentively and with care and mutual respect – it works, it’s still working and I’m very very happy.

Inventory Battles....

I believe that we ultimately bring our R/L character traits into S/L - it's only a matter of time.
In R/L I aspire to being the kind of person that can live a clutter-free life in a streamlined, stripped boards and white walls kind of style, the reality is significantly different in that I am surrounded by "stuff" that, although part of me would love to be shot of, I am hard-wired into acquiring and keeping more of.
At least on S/L it is all listed in an inventory, nothing hides under the bed or in the back of cupboards!.
My latest attack goes like this.....
Stuff I have rezzed and like and use goes into various sub-folders under the heading "AA Sorted" (yes, the whole lot is alpha-sorted) with  my core essentials (hair, skin, eyes, AO etc) in their own folder.
This method has served me well for the stuff I use often but there is an ever-increasing pile of "also-rans" that I trip over every time I try to look in the wardrobe.
My latest attempt to deal with this is the boxes-in-the-attic method - create a box, slide all the assorted crap stuff into it's contents, label the box (now 1 prim) - great for the "don't use it, don't want to bin it" stuff.
I've been working on this, today I needed a new box - I gave up sorting and did a huge and satisfying sweep into my latest box...."Random shit I never look at"
