Uf… Eleven and a half hour day today. I can’t even complain though… NewGirl got there earlier than me and was still there when I left. I figured I could at least come home and take my pants off before working some more.
I decided I wanted something mindless after watching a little TV. It hasn’t been as engaging lately as it used to be. I probably only watch 1 show a night lately (except for Mondays, which are *awesome*). So, I checked out Second Life. I’ve had a couple people ask if I played. Obviously, people who don’t know me very well. ;)
It sounded like my kind of thing though… Animal Crossing meets The Sims or something. Anyway, I played for like half an hour and I’m bored out of my mind. Mindless, though. I’ll grant it that. For all the options it gives you for your avatar, the graphics aren’t spectacular. I couldn’t get the hair to blend right, so it just looked like I had a weave in. The clothes were basically painted skin or blobs of color floating around your bodyshape. Every time I tried to change facial features, it would turn my avatar by default so I couldn’t see her face. Then, when I was fixing her hair, all I could see was her face. It made no sense.
Maybe if I had played longer, I could’ve made a pretty avatar, but it wasn’t that interesting. And maybe I was looking in the wrong place, but I ran around for a while and couldn’t find anything to do. Boring. I guess I could’ve stood around talking to people. But what’s the point of that? If I want to play a game, I don’t want to talk to people. Boring.
From class last night. As I was following along, all I could see was “i blogz” “psi = blogger”. I can’t believe I’m paying for this.
