flash back

you are wondering perhaps why we keep flashing forward and back

Well, when I started SL, it was part of a master's level class in library science so I was interacted with people as part of a class.  After the class ended, I did hunts, created a museum, made stuff, started breedables, changed the museum to an animal preserve -- but mostly I rarely interacted with people.  Just enjoyed SL on my own for years.

Then I put a Kittycats cat breedable up for auction.  Jhanelle Bonde bought my kitty.  She IM'd me questions about breeding and so we became friends.  She was my first real friend in SL.  I never really talked with anyone before then and it really changes the SL experience into something more real instead of just a game.

This is Petite RoxySable that I put up for auction.  After Jhanelle bought her, she renamed her Jeanne.  For kittycats folks, here are Jeanne's stats

♀ Jeanne   ҈   248
Fur: Abyssinian - Black Silver Eyes: Ice Crystal (Mysterious|Small) Shade: Natural Tail: Curious Ears: Mysterious Odyssey Fold Whiskers: White (Mysterious) Size: Petite

 I will always always appreciate Jhanelle becoming my bestie and teaching me how to be friends in SL.  It just opened up a whole new world.  Also since I started taking care of my mom who is sick, it allowed me to have a social life even though I have to stay home all the time.  Really totally saved my sanity, lol

Jhanelle is on the right.  She invited me to her cattery when she first built it.
