Sunday, November 13th, Cyrus Hush turned 5 in SL years. Although he is a good friend I have never remembered to acknowledge his rez day before so sometime several months ago I put it in my calendar with a reminder a month or so earlier to start planning it.
We sometimes attend live music events together and at some point we heard a DJ that he really liked because they had similar tastes in music, 80s rock and some other stuff. I noted his name and hired him to do the party.
I got Serena Offcourse to figure out a way to make sure Cyrus was online at the correct time. Cyndyl Enyo offered to help pass out invitations. I created a notecard and between us we dropped in on everyone in VSTE, ISTE Management, and Expedition Central who had logged into SL in the past couple of months.
I wrote a poem for Cyrus and read it to the group. The only thing I overlooked was decent dances. I didn't have anything for couples and my chimera wasn't working for anyone. No one could find the dance tower, and even if they had the dances loaded there are awful!
We had a lot of fun. The DJ was supposed to stream from 8:45 to 9:45 but when I left at 10:10 he was still there and so were about 15 avatars, even without decent dances. Mandie and others helped with nice tips and I have a feeling he was still doing well in the tip department when I left.
This reminded me of the early days in SL when we had a lot of fun socializing.
