Hurrah!
Ha... and there was me debating last night to go to sleep or continue having fun in second life. Well, actually that is a lie. Sitting on my orange mushroom, after having one drink too many that I was beginning to slip sideways.... my purple wings all a flutter... phew. And you know what those material squirrel wings are like!!!!! One touch... can lead to the next...lol. It was the last blue drink that did it....lol.
Anyway - went to bed far too late and arrived in rl at school with a sl hangover and a sheepish grin. Our lesson was being observed by the head... but heh... she likes me... just grinned and talked a lot (mmn - just like in second life eh!!!!!lol) and finally got them to understand what the word parallel means. Just like PARALLEL realities perhaps!!!!!
When we were doing the subjects of perimetres and area... I was finishing off arranging the lease on my parcel of land.... and trying to work out exactly what so metres squared looks like. Ha.... numbers and me don't get on. So many paces by so many paces... now that is helpful!
Well - I could go on and on and on and on here... but won't - cos am kind....but parachuting off the Eiffel tower WAS fun (though heights scare me silly, as I found out in my rl trip to Peru, when I think I internally re-lived being thrown off the the top of the mountain as some kid of sacrificial offering)

Creaking pipes and high ceilings
How many people at work are sitting here right now hoping no-ne is looking over their shoulder as they write?........Have just growled (as nicely as one can growl) at my fellow friend next to me....and demanded (as nicely as one can demand) not to give a non-stop commentary on what he is doing as he hits the buttons next to me.....................lol
Tis assembly time.............followed by a 15 minute break.... which means (for those of you who cannot remember what an assembly is, in the schoolsense of the word) the school is gathered together - all 6 classes (20 - 30 in each class) ... together... and someone talks to them, or they do stuff... whatever.... and those of us who don't have to be there sneak off to the computer room to play.....
Not play second life you understand..............oooooooh no......... but play in whatever ways people do on computers.
Tis cold.... - which means doing lots of zips and buttons up on coats and jackets at playtime. This is an old victorian building - with creaking pipes and high ceilings. Takes a while to heat up - then is okay. But once inside, the kids have no concept that outside might be cold... and they rush out to play with excitement and joy and end up whimpering with cold pain... As I am allready usually cold - BEFORE I leave the building... just means I end up putting so many layers on I can hardly bend me arms................:)........snow is forecast tomorrow... which is London terms means kind of grey slushy stuff.........ha ha.............
But we shall see!!!!!
