This may be a rather rambling post so bear with me if you choose to continue to read.  If you’d rather be on your way, have a great weekend!

First, a much overdo thank you to Prad , AGAIN, for fixing the blog.  When I moved it over to baileylongcloth.com some stuff got broken and I wasn’t in a position to fix it.  He was super tired but took the time to do it so a HUGE hug for him.  Love ya Praddles!

I have to also say welcome back to Ioh. ^^  I’m so glad your back online love, you’ve been missed.  I fully intend to monopolize all of your time this weekend!  Love you.

Ari, Welcome back to DJing hon!  It was great to hear you the other night.  I know we don’t get to see each other much in world lately but I’m always be here for  you.

I’ve been building again lately.  A new house and all the furniture this time.  It’s been a lot of fun to do this one.  It’s different from anything i’ve done before.  I’ll post some pics to Flickr this weekend.  I have a lot of detail work to finish up this weekend but I wanted to get it down on the ground so I could enjoy it.  And now that Ioh is back online, ‘we’ can enjoy it.  Once the house it done I’ll go back to working on tails and ears.  I’ve sketched some ideas and made a few notes so we’ll see how that goes.  If you have any ideas for some custom ears/tails you would like to see, let me know!

I wrote a post awhile ago about perceptions.  It was based on a conversation I’d had with someone the night before.  What struck me in that conversation, and the reason for the post was how wrong I was in my perceptions of her.  I’m not going to say her perceptions of me were wrong, because they were hers, not mine.  We all have perceptions of people that are either based on what we see, what we’re told, our own interactions with them or finally on who we are ourselves.  So, I wrote the post and asked for comments as I always do.  I’ve been a bit surprised at the comments.   I’m not going to link to the post, if you want to read it, it won’t be hard for you to find. 

After reading the most recent comments last night I was… hurt, angry, confused, and felt like I’d been hit by a truck.   I was really surprised by what I’d read.  Perhaps I’m naive.  I think I’m a good person.  Yes, I have my faults, we all do but the bottom line, I’m a good person.  That’s the simple fact of it, I am a good person and when someone tells me they are my friend, well I take that for truth.  Apparently, I was wrong.  So, while my initial reaction was to reply to the comments, I decided not to.

Then I read Ahuva’s comment this morning and smiled.  Thank you Ahuva for the kind words.  Belive me, I don’t know everything!  I do know the panic though when you’ve deleted half the house or changed the textures or moved something and can no longer find it.  I remember the folks who helped me back then.  It’s my turn to share what I know and help where I can.  Not to mention I love doing it.  So IM me whenever you want.  I’m never to busy for my friends.

While I do care what people think of me and how I’m perceived I’ve realized that my friends are my friends and they’ve accepted who I am and love me regardless of my faults. 

I won’t censor my blog or the comments.  Comments are always welcome all I really ask is that they are on track with the blog post itself.  If your in doubt or would prefer to comment to me directly, just email me.  I honestly don’t bite, much.

Have a great weekend everyone!
