*sigh*

. . . it so figures that the one night I set aside to get some things done with Social Butterfly would be the one night that the grid is down for maintenance.

So I figured I'd update my blog instead.

My Very Dear Friend Beginning Thursday picked up the free version of BlogHUD and has been sending her missives to the blogosphere from inworld. I rather ruefully note that she seems to be posting from more and varied locations than I've been.

I've been meeting some of my neighbors in Livigno. Someone bought the plot next door and I went over at one point to see what he'd done with the place. He glanced at my profile and remarked that I seemed a bit 'freaky'. I didn't dissuade him. He asked what my actual gender was; I told him it wasn't important.

A few days later, I was hopping on to check messages and send an apology for missing my Group meeting, I met another one of the neighbors who was passing by on the path that the folks on the other side of me have built. I paused between IMs long enough to say howdy and she went on her way.

And I just checked, and it looks like the Grid is back up! Amazing how much we miss it when it disappears on us.
