Yup, folks! I'm two today!
Don't worry. I've been terrible the past two years, so I can't get any more terrible than that. :D
August seems to be a significant month for me in Second Life. I joined SL in August 31, 2006. I set up shop at the old Sirens Mall with my first four Mer Betta tails on August 10, 2007. And yesterday (August 30), I walked my first official fashion show as a graduate of the MODA Modelling School.
The first two events proved to be significant milestones in my life. Discovering SL changed my RL, and launching Mer Betta changed my SL. Only time will tell how significant my MODA graduation will be in the coming year.

Hair!
Hello. My name is Opal. I am a hair-aholic.
For almost two years now, I've been battling this addiction. Well, maybe "battling" is not the right word. "Indulging" is probably a better word.
There was a time when I'd buy a new hairstyle once a week. With all the colors.
And over time, it has gotten worse. Now, I buy *several* hairstyles each trip.... It's getting out of control.
And then, one of my MODA friends mentioned the Hair Fair 2008. Well, I was travelling the past week, so I didn't have a chance to go until last night.
So, after five hours of roaming four sims, I ended up with four thousand fewer Lindens and two thousand more inventory items. Oh, alright, maybe not quite *two* thousand. But my transaction history shows 117 transactions (both freebies and purchases) at the Rezzable sims last night.
When I woke up this morning and saw the big mess in my inventory, I realized that I needed help.
My name is Opal. And I'm a hair-aholic.
