Star Wars Galaxies, New Ein D'or, and Adopting Kittens
I play Star Wars Galaxies. My character is a Twi'lek creature handler. Recently I joined a guild, Cabal. We Cabals have a PA (Player Association) Hall in what is now called New Ein D'or. New Ein D'or is not yet a city on the Corellian map, but we hope it will become a player city when the upgrade is made in the game. Last Thursday, there was a wedding in New Ein D'or. I was about to help with furniture placement when Hurricane Isabel caused a power outage at my house. So, I missed out on the wedding party, but here are some screenshots of the wedding, and the party.
We recently applied to adopt two adorable kittens. One is sort of a golden tabby named Apollo, and the other one is a silver tabby named Hermes. We will be changing Hermes' name to Mercury, so that these two brothers will be named after two space missions. Besides, Hermes is the Greek name equivalent of the Roman Mercury. This is just too perfect, considering Apollo, who is the God of the Sun in mythology is golden in color, and Mercury is silverish in color. As you can see, there are multiple levels of symbolism to their names.
