Gardening
Hi Natty! How are you, my beloved? The weather must be awesome right now over there in Vancouver. Have you been enjoying your back yard? I hope you are turning your wonderful little space into a work of art. Beautiful flowers! Please plant some strawberries for me! A small space is easier to tend by yourself. Here I have to keep up with the grass, and maybe a few times I have room in between grass cutting to do other stuff. But this place can't stop looking like it needs a bulldozer and a sandblaster, plus a team of lumber jacks. I'm just one guy.
My motorcycle had a flat tire, and I had to push it to the repair shop today to get a new tube, which is 2 km away. That old tube was due, it was at least 3 years old on heavy use. I used to push the motorcycle quite often (I'm quite obtuse with automobile maintenance), but I finally learned how to prolong the life of my tire tubes. That was years ago, now I'm older. 4 individuals offered to tow me, but that meant I had to mount the motorcycle to steer it and my weight would have sliced open that flat tire. So I had to decline their offer, and push the motorcycle the whole 2 km. That was really nice of them though. Alhamdulillah.
Do you remember my blogging about the beauty contest? There is a thread in the "Your Avatar" section in Second Life forums where people show off their avatars. Of course, they put in countless hours of work on the appearance of their avatars, and are very sensitive and protective of them. Some of those avatars are truly breathtaking works of art. Check it out, this thread is only 3 years old but it's on its 1372nd page! It's called How does your avatar look today? People often get into emotional squabbles and much catfighting goes on, I often have no idea why. So some people start new threads from this main thread where they can police the posts, and one can only say nice things. I love the drama, though! I would never view any of those milquetoast threads. It's the drama that made that main thread so hot! Whoever rules that thread is clearly the superstar of it.
