7-day Virtual Squat Challenge

On 14th May 2013 · By Tymmerie Thorne · With Leave a comment
In Fashion, Girl Wonder, Second Life · Tags , , , , ,

Oh, hi there! Let me catch my breath! I’m in the middle of today’s Squat Challenge exercises. Real Life versions of these 30 Day Squat Challenges are going around the internet like wildfire – you can find them on blogs, Tumblr accounts, Pinterest, exercise and diet sites, etc. In them, you’re challenged to do an increasing number of squats each day until, on the 30th day, you are doing ∞ squats and you can rip phone books in half with your bare buttocks.  

This RL exercise meme inspired me to create a squat challenge workout for our SL avatars. Unlike the RL challenges, my virtual squat challenge takes much less effort; takes only 7 days to complete; and will give you the perky, pixel posterior of your dreams. I even made up a little chart for you to follow. Enjoy!

3 Wishes for Second Life

I blog, therefore I am.

One of the many benefits of blogging: having an excuse to use this picture.

I’m a little behind on the newest meme from the lovely and talented Strawberry Singh. This one is a all about blogging and it originally had more questions, but I cut some out for the sake of brevity and I left space to write about what I know you waiting are on the edge of your seat for: what I got as a prize for the Food Inspector Game.  

  1. How long have you been blogging? Since before you were a twinkle in your typists eye. 
  2. Why did you start blogging? I honestly can’t remember any more.  
  3. Do you comment on other people’s blogs? Ugh! Gee, thanks for asking this, Strawberry, because now I feel horribly guilty for not commenting more often
  4. Do you keep track of how many visitors you have? Yes. Each visitor is tranquilized, measured, and tagged with a GPS (grid positioning system) device before being set loose again in-world. 
  5. Did you ever regret a post that you wrote? I only regret that sometimes I think of a better way to say something after I have already hit the publish button. 
  6. Do you think your readers have a true sense of who you are based on your blog? I sure as heck hope so.
  7. Are there topics that you would never blog about? Never say never.
  8. What have you found to be the benefits of blogging? It’s a very handy alibi in case someone ever tries to frame me for a crime like SLembezzlement, SLextortion, o (Read more...)

Waiter, there is an avatar in my soup.

Jerremy isn’t even wearing a hairnet! YUCK!My husband Jerremy and I tried to go to Fantasy Fair, but it was a ridiculous, laggy time. So we gave up and did something decidedly less popular and less crowded: the Food Safety Inspector Game! I was lu…

Names People Play

This week, the lovely and talented Strawberry Singh has given us a meme about our Second Life names. You should do this meme, too – even if you just do it in Strawberry’s comments section. 

Voice Recorder >>
  1. What’s your SL name? Tymmerie Thorne. It rhymes with “shimmery porn.” (That was not on purpose.) Click that button on the right to hear me pronounce it.
  2. What made you choose this name? I made up the name Tymmerie (without making up a spelling for it) as a creative name for a future child/fish/dog/stripping gig. Then, I needed a ‘T” surname for pleasing alliteration. But Tymmerie Tomorrow sounded too “out there” and the only other T surname that was available at the time was Thorne. I now wish I had gone with Tomorrow – it would have sounded so much nicer rolling off the tongue.
  3. What’s your SL nickname, or what do most people call you? (if applicable) People call me Tym, pronounced like the boy’s name ‘Tim’. Sometimes, they spell it Tymm. I have a couple of people who call me Tymmie or Tymms. 
  4. What’s your SL display name? Why do you choose to have one? (if applicable) It’s Tymmerie Thorne-Darwin because my SL husband is Jerremy Darwin. I noticed that I have a lot of text over my head with a display name, title, and SL name. That makes my head look cluttered. 
  5. Do you like your SL name? Love the name, but I probably could have pick (Read more...)

Nobody Knows the Troobles I’ve Seen

Strawberry is Berry Nosy This Week

That’s me on the far left, waiting in the audience for this week’s Lauren Live show to start. (Tuesdays at 5 PM SLT on the Cookie sim) I kept trying to sit on that stack of pillow near my friend Haley, but SL wanted me to sit here. 

This week, Strawberry Singh has given us the OK to pick and choose which of the nosy questions from her SL Firsts meme to answer. But, not only will I do that, I’m actually going to substitute in some questions of my own! 

  1. First time I got up on stage at Lauren Live variety show: It was last week! It was a bit of a surprise to me, but it was fun! Her show is always fun to watch and even more fun to participate in. This is a link to a video of the show. If a get brave enough and find some material, I might do it again next week. 
  2. First SL Friend: Molly something-or-other? I have an awful memory and she left SL a long time ago. I met Molly one day when I was shopping for textures at Esprit Decor. (Awww! Remember that store?) She came in looking for someone to help her buy a wall. No one else was in the store to answer her plea for help, so I did. I’m glad I did because meeting her led to a series of events that led to meeting my husband Jerremy. 
  3. First Date with Jerremy: We went to the Swirl Cafe that was built by Nestlé to promote Coffee-mate brand. (Awww! Remember when RL companies wanted to be associated with SL?). Jerremy spilled coffee on his pants; I hel (Read more...)

I Hate to Burst Your Bubble

My husband Jerremy recently told me that he’s decided it’s time to get a new bubble blower. As shocked as I was, I knew this was coming. He’s had his favorite bubble blowing gun since around the time we first met back in 2007. I remember him IMing…

Hunts Are Very Expensive

I now have definitive proof that prize hunts increase sales. Proof: I just spent $1,500 Lindens on a fatpack of chairs that I don’t even need while doing The Nest’s Easter egg hunt. Of course, I only bought them because they come with a set o…

Hi there! I’m taking a break from Easter Egg hunting at The Nest and watching a baby wander around on the street unsupervised. 

While I wait to see if her parents/dingoes to come get her, I thought I’d do another meme from Strawberry Singh. This week she’s proposed the Procrastination Meme.: 

  1. What is the rez date for your current SL Avatar that you use most often? Thinking back on how expensive it’s been to kit out one avatar prevents me from ever doing it again. I only have one avatar – the terribly expensive Ms. Tymmerie Thorne-Darwin whose rez date of August 20, 2007 makes her a Leo just like me.  
  2. Where was the first place you made friends as a newb and got to know people in Second Life? It was some nude beach. sex club, or sandbox. I wish I was kidding, but I just wanted to find people and that’s where I found them. 
  3. Where do you spend most of your SL time now? I spend my time everywhere. I don’t like just hanging around at home. There’s no use buying cute clothes in SL if no one will see them. Plus, I need stuff to write about on my blog and there are no babies wandering around loose at my house. 
  4. Who is your closest friend in Second Life? (only pick one) My husband Jerremy, of course! 
  5. What is your favorite thing in your inventory? (only pick one) Since I actually wear my wedding ring and it doesn’t sit in my inventory, I won’t pick that. And while I have (Read more...)

SLeven: A Meme

This photo has nothing to do with this post – I just liked that there are people in the background.

The other day on Plurk (Add me!), I was reminiscing about back when SL bloggers would do all sorts of fun writing memes. And then, to my utter delight, Strawberry Singh started a meme on her blog! I’m going to play along. So, here are my:

Seven SL Facts About Me!

SL Fact #1 - Whenever I override a no-fly zone, I scream, “Yea! Take that! Nobody puts Baby in a corner! Vive la Révolution!” And then I shoot a gun off into the air.

SL Fact #2 - I wish I had picked a simpler spelling for my name. I could have gone with Timory, maybe? But would people would think I’m a man because of the “Tim” at the beginning? Tymory? But then people would pronounce it like “time” instead of “Tim” and it’s also letter Y overkill. Tymri? Tymuree? Tymurry?

SL Fact #3 - Just as Janice Dickinson never tires of reminding people that she was the world’s first Supermodel, I never tire of telling people that I was once the Face of Lesbian SexGen.

SL Fact #4 - When I started SL, I used to always wear underwear, even though it wasn’t really necessary with glitch pants and all that. And now that panties actually come in handy under mesh skirts? I keep forgetting to put any on.   

SL Fact #5 - I keep a copy of all my original shape numbers in a fireproof safe in (Read more...)

So, there was this blouse. A very pretty, cap sleeve, mesh blouse. A blouse I couldn’t stop thinking about. Always the sensible person, I tried the demo. Ugh! the shoulders didn’t fit quite right. (But ZOMG look at how good it makes my boobs look!)&nbs…
