i just spent the evening with a scientist.
halo and second life are both games.
i call the sims 2 my fake life.
for whatever reason,
i asked my best friend
how her "half life" was going.
then, i got out a green camping chair,
set it up beside the computer,
and i did what i do best,
watch my best friend play video games
and talk with her about what they mean.
i was fascinated with the in-game escorts.
you pay them with linden dollars,
which you buy using real dollars.
the escorts can be anything,
a naughty schoolgirl or a whip-wielding mistress,
because they can just change skins.
the cheap ones sell what you would expect,
and the expensive ones sell the GFE
[that's the "girlfriend experience"
for those of you not fluent in hooker.]
you can float in the game, though,
like in grand theft auto
with the jet pack cheat,
like in my favorite dreams.
