sad builder

Oh dear. I appear to have turned into a geek. Second Life was all very well when I was relaxing in a hot tub on the beach, or modelling an evening gown collection almost as extensive as my real life one, but recently I've become a geek. Officially. I've built a copy of our tower block, complete with grotty (different colour, but equally grotty) carpet, finding myself rather proud of the fact it really does look real, and not a cheating photographic texture in sight. Now I'm wondering if that took me stupidly too long, as I've spent a rather pleasant hour watching tutorials on how to use Google SketchUp , which I've just been introduced to today, and can see lots of uses for...... A geek. It came to me in the end. How sad. What's more sad? Have I been saying Second Life needed an IKEA store or what. And well whaddya know, along with SketchUp there's 3DWarehouse which has....IKEA. Yay. Double sad. Laughing
