Rosatta Resident: SL can be a refuge that I am grateful for
Rosatta Resident: What sims do you like to spend the most time on? If it's ok to ask
Qt Core: i'm sadly developing a pavlovian reflex... while i type my sl password i think about all the other "more important" things i should/would have to do
Qt Core: here, almost only here lately
Rosatta Resident: I totally understand
Rosatta Resident: I will offere you some thoughts, please ignore them if they won't work for you
Rosatta Resident: We are many-sided people and we live in a reality where things to do is never ending - the shoulds
Qt Core: ohh, i'm good in ignoring advice ;-)
Rosatta Resident: lol ok
Rosatta Resident: But part of us needs play, positive experiences as much as our bodies need vitamins
Qt Core: i agree
Rosatta Resident: Maybe you could schedule yourself SL time as a mental health thing to get around the feeling you don't have a right ot play when other things are demanding attention
Rosatta Resident: Just a thought
Qt Core: i'm often on the other side, gratifying me too much
Rosatta Resident: ok
Qt Core: some of those shoulds are real, maybe they just can't be solved at 11pm
--BELL--
Qt Core: (while sl is a good alternative to tv at that hour)
Rosatta Resident: The later it gets the less there is in SL - meaning people I suppose - that I really enjoy
Rosatta Resident: All the things I do and the people I like to be around tend to come from an earlier time zone and go to bed by 9 sl time : (
Rosatta Resident: Well, dear QT, I have a dr's appointment in about half and hour so I need to be off. I hope life become s a bit more feel-good for you soon
Qt Core: ty
Qt Core: i usually say have fun, but i don't know if it can apply to dr appointment too ;-)
Rosatta Resident: lol just a blood pressure check
Rosatta Resident: Peace and lbessings
