This Friday, it looked like it was just me
For this, we can thank Service Pack Three
And someone's visit to Germany.
They'll be back next week, don't you fret
It's not like they could just forget
That night, though, eight, I had MY set.
This
may be my last Friday night set for a while. I don't know yet because I
don't know what my work schedule is going to be for the next three
months and I may be working early Saturdays. This could also be a false
alarm. Like I said, I don't know.
8:00
1. Benny Goodman - Opening Theme: Let's Dance (2:35)
2. 'Brazil' Soundtrack - The Office (1:22)
3. Billie Holiday - Nice Work If You Can Get It (3:10)
4. DJ Clive$ter - Justified & Crazy (7:11)
Someone
requested "Crazy" and this was as close as I could come at the time.
For the next two hours, the guy hassled me in IM about how I should go
DJ at his club. "It's not like any of these other clubs." Ah, they never
are. Why, no one has ever thought of having a dance/sex club in SL.
What a unique idea!
I don't know if the guy was trying to chat me
up after hearing my voice or what was going on, but I told him several
times I wasn't up for an intense IM conversation when I had a club full
of people to keep an eye on. Also, I am not up for having any kind of
conversation about biting because I am not into it. And, yes, even in
SL, your personal space can be invaded.

sunny days or rain or thunderstorms. Others dislike back-rubs or
