The next five day's I will be over to the other side of the country for my real life job.

So no second life, no taking pictures.and not posting.

This will be the case for four weeks on weekday's.

With a Second Life inventory exploding with stuff to show I have to let real life get my full priority.

In the meantime have fun while you shop until you drop.
