Daphne’s Random Thoughts

A blizzard hit Edloe, at least I have a fireplace in the castle to stay warm by. And this gives me a chance to try on my new clothes. I got this yesterday from Casa del Shai and it’s named after Dakota Buck, who we just interviewed for the next Going Broke with Daphne and Tamara. it’s a soft silky top with a high waisted pant that is very comfy on a cold snowy day like today.

What Daphne is wearing:

Outfit: Dakota Pantsuit – Casa del Shai

Boots: Charmed – Fuel

Jewelry: Mon Ceur Set – Earthtones

Hair: Nadia – ETD

Skin: Vivant Soiree – Tete a Pied

It was a change of pace for me, I was the interviewee not the interviewer. I was interviewed by Paisley Beebe for Tonight Live for SCLN. It was a lot of fun, I only wish Tamara could have been there. It was strange not having her there after 12 1/2 Going Broke’s and 9 Stylecast’s I am not used to talking about the shows without her there.

Paisley commented on the outfit I was wearing and my make-up and eyes. So I thought I better blog about them in case you want to know. I am wearing the Swirly Cyclone Dress from Kyoot Army, Dune Boots from Maitreya, earrings are Sinqui by Tekeli-li. My Hair is from the Couture Collection at ETD, it’s called Chignon, and yes, I do have trouble pronouncing that. My skin is Tete a Pied’s Biba, Eyes are called Reflect – Shattered by Phrynne Canned and Paisley noted my prim eyelashes which are Dramah from Adam n Eve.

So there I was in Tamara’s Pink Satin Skybox talking about the next episode of Second Style Stylecast and our friend Oscar Page comes over and the next thing I know we are spinning away in our Wonderful Chairs. If you haven’t seen these, IM me or Tamara Kirshner in world to get a copy. We got ours from Hyasynth Tiramisu of Silent Sparrow when we interviewed her on Going Broke with Daphne and Tamara, Episode 2 (if memory serves). WARNING: The Wonderful Chair can be addictive. The song and spinning animation may consume much of your Second Life time.

You’ve been warned.

OK, I’m going on the theory that most personal blog posts come to the writer when they are stress, bored, irritate or over tired. I’m just over tired I think. Couldn’t sleep and now I’m here rambling incoherently and then ready to press “publish” without a second thought.

Yesterday Tamara and I interviewed with Akela Talamasca of Second Life Insider for their podcast “On the Inside”. Ok, Tam got her “guest on a podcast” skills from her parter Crap Mariner. Trust me, we hijacked that podcast before he knew what was going to happen. Right after we said hello, it was all down hill. But we had fun and I think Akela did too. I just hope their is something left after all the editing, I blame Skype. It’s just easier that way, I might sound like I have no clue what the heck was going on but I did, it’s was the Skype induced lag effect.

This week I have my first of I hope many appearances on the Black Tie Martini Club Oddcast. I think Caleb is trying to put together a stable of other podcasters to play bit parts in his skits. It was fun, I just hope I don’t get typecast as June Cleaver, I can be so much more then a 1950’s mom on valium, really I can.

Later this week this week Tamara and I will be recording Episode 7 with Radar Masukami. The topic: Eastern Asian Design and where to find it in SL. Unless this is actually a ploy to get us back for what we did on his podcast, SL Under the Radar, several times. I am hoping for a show I can just hit record and then do as little editing as possible on, but I wondering if we can stay somewhat on topic enough to do that.

SL Woodstock is coming and you can’t stop it. It started as a Rez Day party for William Pitre, The Traveling Avatar, sponsored by his podcast’s network QDNow. It’s now 2 days, 3 sims and lots of music. Mark your calendars for August 16-17.

Finally, I went to ICANHASCHEEZBURGER before deciding to ramble at my blog and found this LOLCAT. I think Tamara and I have a mascot.

OK, I was wrong their could be something more out of control than interviewing Crap and Radar: Interviewing Will Pitre. I was told that podcasting is supposed to be fun, well in the past two days I don’t think Tamara and I have laughed more. I know why Will’s podcast is 5 minutes, I don’t think he could stay on topic longer than that. I think having the phone ring (I will not say who’s phone) in the middle of a tangent might have helped get us back on track for about 5 -10 minutes, then somehow the price of sex-gen beds came up and it’s all a blur after that. I hope I will be able to edit this all together into a coherent segment, if not blame William Pitre. Do a search, IM him and tell him it’s all his fault.

Thank you Will for coming on our show, I did enjoy the conversation. It’s a shame some of the best parts were off the record. And for some reason the only picture I could find of you was on SLBuzz of me, Crap and you relaxing at the Speakeasy.

For what it’s worth: If you pay more for your bed than the land it sits on, you may need to evaluate your priorities.
