For all of you lovelorn avatars out there, CupidSL presents a series of singles mixers to meet that special someone. Organized by US state in the real world, apparently the point is to make a love connection with someone you might meet in the flesh as well as in pixels. Thursday evening from 4-7PM PST, residents who hearken from Vermont, Maine and New Hampshire have an opportunity to meet up with other folks from their region. Friday evening is Massachusetts, Rhode Island and Connecticut. Head over to the CupidSL mansion on Gregwired Island (60, 118) to attend or find out other meeting times for your state. (Sorry ladies, I'm taken!)
Also coming up this week: avatars in tights, aliens speaking, bad monster movies, chanting, cheese and much, much more...
