IN-WORLD SLEEPING, OUT-WORLD DREAMING (BEING AN ADDENDUM TO YESTERDAY'S ENTRY)

When I noticed FlipperPA Peregrine and Jennyfur Peregine sleeping in back pew at last Sunday's mass, I first assumed that the gesture was some kind of intentional pantomime. Perhaps a statement against organized religion, or its entrance into Second Life?

Peregrine laughs, when I suggest that. "Not at all. Although we're not Christian, we're supporting our dear friend [church-owner] Rafin [Grimm]. Just a busy day real life for us." Because while the liturgy went on, Peregrine and Jennyfur had their own rituals to attend to, away from the keyboard. "I warned [Rafin] that I might be away-from-keyboard before the service," says Peregrine. "We're preparing to have both sets of our parents over. Jennyfur and I [just] got engaged in real life. We've been together for four years-- so it was time to do something about it. I gave her my grandmother's ring." So Spring fever continues, off-line, and-- as the next couple days' entries should suggest-- in-world.
