Have you ever been in a feud with someone so long that you forgot what you were mad at them for? And then had them invite you to DJ at their club? And then had them cam in on your avatar and suggest you get a new skin first? Last Sunday was my first week in a new residency at Mixtape and so my particular mixtape theme was Beautiful Girls: Love Letters and Cautionary Tales. You can catch me there every Sunday at 6PM SLT. This was the only week I wore my zombie skin though.

I've been obsessively reading Rolling Stones bios lately so I diverged into Marianne Faithfull's autobiography, Faithfull. Wow, did she sleep with some bizarre people and tell her own fantastic version of some Stones folk lore.

Yup, I've returned to the wild world of Second Life DJing. First time back: sweaty palms, totally effed it up in the beginning because I forgot how to use Nicecast and inputted the wrong stream URL.
