Insert Catchy Title Here

2009-06-06T09:23:00.000-07:00

Just goofing around with Torley's Windlight settings this morning. How could I have not downloaded these sooner?

I like night time pictures, but it felt weird to not have my facelight on, lol.

This one made me think of lazy rainy days.

Either that sunset is really bright, or something behind me blew up, lol.

Something tells me I'm going to waste a lot of time playing with my new settings, lol.

Love Thursday

2009-06-04T13:07:00.000-07:00

My post for this weeks Love Thursday will be short and sweet.

I love kisses...kissing and being kissed is probably the best feeling in the world, if it's done right. Please don't slobber on me, or try to shove a tongue down my throat right out of the gate. I love soft, warm kisses. I love soft lips, and most of all I love a lot of smaller kisses as opposed to one that might last too long.

Yes, I'm complicated and picky, but when it comes to kisses, it has to be just right, or else nothing else falls into place. XOXO

I <3 Artilleri!

2009-06-02T10:01:00.000-07:00

It all started with a trip to the Sand Shack to buy some flip flops. That's all I planned on doing, just a quick trip there and back. I had no idea the store was on the Artilleri sim, so once I got there I had to look around and fell in love! I wouldn't say my style is anywhere close to retro, but I loved just about everything I saw, and had to go through all the houses and sit or click on everything to play with, lol.The flamingos were looking at me like I was crazy.

I think the flamingo was stalking me, lol.

No flamingos in sight here, just me, a book, and time to kill.

This pic makes me wish my RL vacation from work had involved some lazy days lying around on a beach somewhere. *sigh* Maybe next time....

Oh, and I did eventually get the flip flops I came for in the first place, lol.

Random Stuff

2009-06-01T09:35:00.000-07:00

It's been a long weekend, and I've been up to a whole lot of nothing as far as SL goes....I guess I haven't been feeling it the past few days. I thought I'd end up spending my time off from RL work here, but when there's no one online to talk to, you can only grab so many freebies, lol. My poor inventory is already full of things I might never wear, but I keep getting them just in case I might want/need them down the road somewhere. I see there are a few hunts going on, and this is my reaction:

That's me screaming *NOOOOOO*, btw...even though I look kind of happy, lol. I'm tempted to do at least one of them just for something to do, but I know once I start I'll only do a few before I get bored. Call me lazy, but I'd rather wait for one of the blogs I read to post about a really good gift before I go get it, lol. Well, lazy and then the fact that between RL work and trying to get some sleep, my time here is pretty limited these days.

Summer is here again, and I'm going to make myself get more sleep. For awhile there I was up late (like 3 or 4 am) and getting up after a few hours (like 2 or 3) and going all day, then doing the same thing the next night. Not good. For awhile it was Zyngo, then it was dancing till the wee hours, then just up doing random stuff. Now that the chickens are dead, I don't know what will keep me up late...but as usual, I'm sure I'll find something. :)

Right now RL is calling, and as much as I'd love to stay in world, sometimes I just have to get up and answer. XOXO

Nude but not Crude

2009-05-31T09:20:00.000-07:00

Ok, here is my contribution to the blogger challenge that Marnix came up with. It took me awhile to find the right pose and the right place to run around nude, but I think it turned out pretty well!

Some fluffy clouds would have been perfect for this pic, but I can never seem to get them right with my windlight settings. Seeing pics like this makes me so wish I wasn't landlocked in RL...I could use a day relaxing at the beach right about now!

R.I.P. Little Chickies

2009-05-30T10:19:00.000-07:00

My babies lasted about a week before I decided to try and move them. Silly me, I attached them to my hands, and instead of dropping them, I detached. They went into my inventory, where they died....I'm presuming from the weight of all my junk, lol.

Poor little chickens, they never knew what hit them. :/

I <3 My Curves!

2009-05-27T06:14:00.000-07:00

There has been some talk lately on a few of the blogs I read about a store owner wanting models with a certain look, and very very specific on the size of the models. We're talking leg sliders set all the way to the right, and the chest sliders all the way to the left, lol. It got me to thinking, even though this is SL, do some people think those of us with *normal* body shapes don't look good? Are we all supposed to be running around with supermodel stick-thin bodies? It took me awhile to find just the right shape, and I am totally happy with it. It's not too thick, not too thin, and I usually look good in the clothes I decide to wear.

Then I got to thinking about RL, and how magazines and television seem to push that skinnier is sexier. You can't get away from it, it's everywhere, and sadly, a lot of younger girls seem to think that's the norm. I see a lot of teenagers that are super thin, and hear normal sized girls saying things like "I'm so fat", etc, etc. Not that I've never said stuff like that before, but I'm a grown woman, and I know that women have curves, and I'm ok with that. I don't always love my body, and often see every flaw when I look in the mirror, but I'm also comfortable enough in my own skin to like the curves I have. Yes, I could lose a few (ok, 20) pounds, but if I never do, I'm ok with that too. Would I like to have the body of my avi and never have to exercise or have plastic surgery? Um...that would be a yes, but that's just wishful thinking, lol.

So to all of you *normal* sized avatars, embrace your curviness both in RL and SL. No one is perfect, and even though we all have what we might consider flaws, someone loves you regardless, and sees you as perfect in their eyes. XOXO

They're Finally Here!

2009-05-24T08:20:00.000-07:00

My baby chickens have finally hatched! I waited impatiently yesterday for them to arrive, but only one managed to hatch before I had to take care of RL work, so I logged in last night to check again, and my other baby had popped out of the shell. They're both girls, so no chance of new eggs cropping up anytime soon, but I might get another egg (or two) eventually and see what happens.

How cute are they?!? Azula and Blanca don't do much right now besides walk around and sleep...Blanca likes to live dangerously and wander right into the waves, but she hasn't gotten killed yet, lol. Azula is harder to catch, she ends up under the party deck and all over the place.

Now that they're here, I don't know what to do with them except watch them, and make sure they're fed. They're adorable though, and it's kind of nice to come home and see them wandering around the beach. Maybe I'm feeling maternal or something, I want more cute things to take care of, lol. Hmm...wonder if a prim kitty would get along with my chicks?

I'm having a baby!

2009-05-23T08:49:00.000-07:00

Ok, not really...I'm not having a baby either in RL or SL, but I am anxiously awaiting for my baby chicks to hatch! I'm all ready for them, got the food for them and everything, just playing a waiting game right now.

I have no idea what possessed me to get baby chickens, or what I'm going to do with them once they grow up and lay even more eggs...if they even make it that far. My poor babies might end up wandering around, fall into the ocean, or starving to death because I'll probably forget to feed them before I go on vacation next week, lol. I could always put up a fence to keep them from drowning, but I'm desperately low on prims, so I'm gonna take my chances.

Hmm...maybe this wasn't such a good idea after all, lol.

The Big Day!

2009-05-20T09:01:00.000-07:00

I made it home in time last night to be the maid of honor at my bestie Synful's wedding, and with enough time to spare to actually know what I was going to do. I had missed the rehearsal the night before due to RL work, so I was a bundle of nerves when I tp'd down to the hockey rink. We all made sure our dresses were perfect, and that we had the right things on, and rebaked a few times just to be absolutely sure.

The bride to be was absolutely stunning, and made it through her inventory not wanting to load like a breeze.

From left to right...Yvetta, Shanny, and me

Synful had to be dragged down the aisle, but not for the reasons you might think.

Some random wedding shots...I took way too many pics!

I accidentally cut the best man out of a couple of shots, trying to get a good angle, lol.

Aww...so romantic!

A very romantic night, and it went as perfectly as planned!

Congratulations again to Merrick and Synful!

Women Behaving Badly

2009-05-16T09:18:00.000-07:00

Well, as promised, I have the pics from last night's bachelorette party for my friend Synful. We danced, we laughed, we wore penis hats. I don't even know if I can put the pics up here without getting in trouble with blogger, but oh well. Here they are!

The bride to be in her giant penis throne.

Aubrey and me dancing...I so wish I could have gotten a good pic of her humping the chair. I seriously laughed loud enough to wake the house. Good thing I didn't, lol.

The lovely bride to be in her special veil, lol.

Another shot of Synful, giving the pole one last go before she's a married woman.

And that's me wearing my favorite party gift of the night. I think I'm going to wear this at every given opportunity, if my friends can stand to drag me anywhere in it, lol. I wore it to Sine Wave last night, but it was pretty dead, so no one noticed. Maybe next time, lol.

Anyway, we had fun, and I'm sure the wedding will be beautiful. Love between two people, especially on SL, is rare and special, and when you find someone who can make your heart skip a beat at the most unexpected moment, all you can do is hold on and enjoy the ride. Congratulations you guys! XOXO

Party Time!

2009-05-15T08:54:00.000-07:00

You know, it's kind of sad when your land is so full you can't even rez a party invitation on it, lol. I had to go to a public sandbox to open up my bestie Synful's invite to her bachelorette party, and the people around me were probably wondering why I was taking a picture of myself laying next the cardboard man, lol.

Now to find the perfect outfit to wear for Synful's last night as a free woman...and if this invite is any hint as to what kind of debauchery will be going on, I need to find a blindfold to shield my eyes from any stray floppy bits. I'm anticipating a lot of post party pic editing tomorrow, lmao. I only have 10,000 things in my inventory to pick from, so I'd better get started! XOXO

Love Thursday...again

2009-05-14T09:26:00.000-07:00

I can't remember if I've already shown some love to this week's topic, but oh well, it deserves another go. I love to dance! There is nothing like a little music therapy to soothe soul, and bring people together. Whether it's something fast and wild, with lots of hooing and random gesturbating, or my personal favorite...a slow sexy song and someone to share the poseballs with.

I don't go too many places these days, but the one club I've spent the most time in (not working, lol) is Blackhearts. It's always packed, but the lag isn't as bad as you'd expect. I did get an offer for a vampire bite while I was there this morning, but as you can see, I was busy shaking my pixel butt for this pic to bother with trying to bite him back, lol.

I didn't stay long, since it's not much fun to dance alone, but the next time I go I'm definitely dragging someone along with. XOXO

Weird Stuff

2009-05-12T07:18:00.000-07:00

Ok, by now you know I get bored easily, and my mind tends to jump from one thing to another a lot of the time. I end up at the weirdest places, and had to comment on this. I'm not trying to offend anyone or the roles they might play out on SL, but what is up with the whole pregnant/talking tummy/having kids here? I was looking for something else entirely, and ended up at a store that sold pregnancy shapes and all kinds of talking tummies...you know, the ones that announce in local chat about how your baby is growing and blah blah blah. Usually seen while the pregnant mom is dancing like a stripper at a nightclub.This place also sold prims babies in various skin colors and eye colors, and some even had color change hair, I'm guessing for when you parter up with someone new and want to reuse the baby you've already spent a lot of lindens on, lol. You can even go upstairs at this store and *have* your baby, complete with a bed and a coaching poseball. WTF?

I was laughing at this point, so excuse the bad pic. I thought they were gonna kick me out, since I cammed up to a restricted area to snap this one, lol. Yes, I'm easily amused. If you don't want to go through the whole talking tummy and virtual stretch marks, you can always adopt, and get a little bundle of joy like this one.

Umm...I'll pass.

/me grabs free condoms and runs away

I Really Need to Stop

2009-05-11T09:24:00.000-07:00

I headed down to the Home and Garden Expo the other day, just to check out some outdoor furniture that was selling for a good cause. The proceeds go to Relay for Life, so if I did end up buying something it would help the cause. (Which, by the way, I'm helping raise money in RL for the Relay for Life to help my co-worker and Facebook buddy who has cancer. If you want to donate, IM me inworld for a link to the page!)

Anyway, back to the subject. I saw two things I really wanted, but I'm lacking the prims for them both, but I know where to go if I ever get bigger land. One is this awesome tree that has some cute poses built into it. Perfect for those lazy days just sitting around with friends and shooting the breeze.

The other was this house, which I want in the worst way. I don't have either 2500L or 200+ prims to spare, but just look!

That's me passed out on the sidewalk after seeing the inside and the amazing patio out back. I should have taken more pics, but I got sidetracked once I looked up the builder and ended up on the Costa Rica Sim, which will be a post for another day, lol. *sighs* It sucks to have a prim budget to stick to in SL. A girl can dream though! XOXO

All Dressed Up and No Place to Go

2009-05-09T08:38:00.000-07:00

I've been looking through my inventory lately, and doing a little cleaning, and one thing I have a ton of (and I mean a TON!) is evening gowns. I don't know why I keep getting them if I never have a chance to wear them. It's not like I ever go to formal events, or balls, or what ever. I love them though, and wanted to get dressed up last night and maybe do something special.

I even found somewhere nice to go...but sadly, I didn't get to do anything. I still managed to snap a few pics, just to prove that I clean up well, lol.

Maybe tonight will be better. I still have plenty of gowns to wear, and there is always hope that something special will happen. XOXO

Feeling Sexy?

2009-05-08T09:01:00.000-07:00

I've been on SL long enough to have seen a little bit of everything now. Sex is everywhere. It seems you can't go anywhere without running into someone who is either running around naked with a giant (and often badly colored) erection, or their chest sliders set to 100. Sometimes those characters aren't even human, but to be honest, one of my good friends runs around as a bunny most of the time, and he works it pretty well, lol.

Other people play roles of dominant or submissive, for whatever reason their heart desires. I tend to be more of the dominant, since I like to be in control of things. Not to say I don't enjoy the opposite, it's just not my style to let someone have total control of me and the things I do. I love my silks though, but more as a fashion thing...they're just plain sexy, lol.

I was trying on some of the stuff in my massive inventory, and ran across one of my favorite outfits that I hardly ever get to wear. Then of course I had to find somewhere appropriate to snap a pic once I realized this would make a good blog post, lol.

I really need to find an excuse to run around in this again. Something about not wearing underwear in public can be quite liberating, lol.

Of course, sexiness to one person might not be to someone else, and that's fine. Sexy isn't really about what you wear, or the kinks you're into, or anything else. It can be something as simple as the way someone or something makes you feel...seduce my mind, and the rest will follow.

/me runs back into the house from taking nude photos outside. XOXO

Love Thursday!

2009-05-07T09:17:00.000-07:00

This one was easy! I love my Stiletto Moody shoes! I wear them almost all the time, and they look amazing with almost anything...or sometimes just with nothing else but a smile. ;)
Although I can't quite get the feet to match my legs despite numerous tries, I still wear them and will keep in wearing them. Now to find a pair like this in RL...wonder if I'd walk around the house naked with them on?

Hmm...

2009-05-06T10:03:00.000-07:00

...can't a girl go looking for romantic beaches without being bombarded by vampires, or seeing something like this?Light flare added to protect you from his abnormally large freenis. That's me in the background looking appropriately shocked/amused. Now I remember why I rarely leave the house, lol. I do need a night out for some dancing, but I doubt I'll be coming back here...I'll stick with Blackhearts! XOXO

Bleh

2009-05-04T09:27:00.001-07:00

Mondays just suck, but when the sun hasn't been out for days, it just makes it that much worse. Nuff said.

Hoping for some sun soon!

Chalk Bored

2009-05-01T06:36:00.001-07:00

See what happens when I'm left alone and nobody on my friends list is online?

Haha...I'm such a dork! XOXO

Love Thursday!

2009-04-30T07:15:00.000-07:00

My love for this week was easy...I love my little home on the beach! I finally found the coconut chairs I had been looking for, and they seem to complete my landscaping. For now anyway, lol.

I'm thinking of having random house parties here, and finally make use of the dance area I put up awhile back. Possibly even turning off my security and letting the neighbors come by to visit, then kicking them out at the end of the night, lol. It's still up in the air...just a thought I had this morning. I never have had an official housewarming here, and I've been here what...4 months?

My land and house might be small, but it's filled with love, and that's all that really matters anyway. :) XOXO

Aww...how cute!

2009-04-29T10:13:00.001-07:00

Just a quick note to share a little gift my friend Nikii gave me. I logged in last night to find this waiting for me. I rezzed it, and it said to click to play the animation...what else was I supposed to do? LOL

The box comes open, and here is this adorable little bear waving at me.

Then he gets up and starts walking towards me...and if you remember, I have this weird thing about dolls/toys coming to life, lol.

After a second or two of thinking it was going to attack or hump me, he did some somersaults and put down some little Happy Rez Day signs.

Aww...now wasn't that sweet? Thanks again Nikii!! XOXO

Something Different

2009-04-28T06:49:00.000-07:00

I logged in last night and got a random tp from my friend Nikii to somewhere I'd never been before. I hadn't been out dancing in awhile, so I thought I'd go check it out...I'm always up for something new and I was actually dressed to go clubbin.

I landed at a place called Sturgis, but I think the club was actually called The Tavern Cavern. I'm not a biker by any means, but the music was good and the people were crazy, which I happen to like, lol.

I wasn't too sure at first though, since I saw this girl dancing right next to me.

Turns out she doesn't always look like that, lol. I saw her later and she was actually well put together. That face had me worried, lol.

There's Nikii dancing her sexy ass off. She's going to DJ at this club a few days a week...you need to stop by and see her when she's there..show her some Linden love!

And then there's me...bringing in my rez day with a dance or two. I might not have been in the best of moods, but the night ended better than I had planned. Here's to a new day, and another great year! XOXO

Wow...a whole year!

2009-04-27T09:04:00.000-07:00

I just noticed tomorrow is my 1st Rez Day here in SL. I can't believe it's been a year already, and all of the ups and downs I've had along the way. I've made some great friends whom I'd actually hang out with in RL if we weren't so far away from each other, and I've also met some real asshats. Gotta take the good with the bad, just like RL.

My avatar has morphed from just a fantasy character into more of an extension of my real self, and my look has changed quite a bit too. I'll share some of my looks with you, but I didn't have any pics of how I first looked...who would want to see that anyway? LOL

Me at about 2 months in...crazy hair, lol.

That was me last year sometime...not bad. :)

And this is me this morning, wondering what changes my life holds in store for me this year to come. Don't know if my eyes are closed because I'm dreaming, or because I've dozed off, lol. I'm going to say dreaming of great things to come! XOXO

Love Thursday...a day late!

2009-04-24T07:10:00.000-07:00

Ok, I know my post for Love Thursdays is a day late, but I just figured out how to get my playlist to show up exactly where I wanted it to. I'm slow, lol.

My love for Thursday would be music. It is the one constant for me, the soundtrack of my life I guess. A bad day can melt away with the right song, and certain ones can take me back in time almost. Some of the songs on my list are just feel good songs, and some of them mean more than others. You can pretty much judge my mood by what I'm listening to, and my list will probably change quite a bit from day to day. Some days I feel pink, some days I'm in more of a black mood...this just happens to be a pink list, lol.

Maybe some of them are your favorites too! XOXO

Exploring Poetik

2009-04-22T07:59:00.000-07:00

It's kind of odd for me to log on and have a completely empty friends list, but it actually happened this morning, and I started clicking the showcase for something to do. I wound up at a place called Poetik Velvets, which is an art gallery with some really nice work to see.

I guess I'm feeling pink again, because I ended up here in a display called *The Lonely Doll*, which is about a story of a...what else...lonely doll ...who has teddy bears come to life. Anyway, I never read it as a kid, and it probably would have given me nightmares if I had, considering dolls kind of freak me out anyway, lol. I had to snap a few pics while I was there, and thought I'd share the best ones with you. Don't you feel special? LOL

I think everyone feels this way at least once in awhile.

This is what I'm talking about when I said it would give me nightmares, lol. The writing on the floor says *Isn't it just like a girl to cry when she gets spanked!* Um...no comment!

Just one word for this picture....AWW!

I'm ending this post with a reminder to love and cherish the people in your RL and SL that are always there for you to play with, and to keep you from being lonely! XOXO

Trashy Women

2009-04-21T05:37:00.000-07:00

Ok, I'm feeling much better this morning...guess it was a combination of little sleep and being bored with SL yesterday that made me feel so freakin emo. I managed to get out and do a little dancing last night, and that's always good for my soul. I can't even remember the name of where I went, but the event was a *Best In Trailer Trash*, lol. Small crowd, but plenty of fug to be seen, such as this person...who according to their profile was actually a man.

There was plenty of bling around last night, but I wasn't sure if it was for the event, or if they were really wearing it because they liked it. I'm hoping for the former, lol.

I didn't win, but I wasn't really trying...I was just there for the hell of it, and to drag my friend along with me for the ride. Guess my sweat pants and crop top weren't trashy enough for them, lol.

I thought dancing with a beer in my hand was a nice touch though, lol. RL is calling, so I'm out for now! XOXO

Meh

2009-04-20T14:40:00.000-07:00

Maybe it's lack of sleep (due to my rl work schedule being a little thrown off today) or maybe I'm just bored, I don't know. I log in this afternoon and can't find a single thing to do. Not even any cute freebies to tempt me today. So I laid around and listened to music, and that seemed to cheer me up some, but mostly made me want to go dancing, lol. Maybe later. But for now I'll just lie here and daydream a little, and let some sappy music take me away. XOXO

Lazy Saturday

2009-04-18T12:33:00.000-07:00

It's raining again in RL today, so I've had a lazy morning of opening boxes and just general goofing off. It didn't help that I slept until noon, so most of my day was wasted before even opening my eyes, lol.

I got a new toy this morning, and thought I'd try it out. Of course it had to be pink for me, but it changes to any color. Guess I was just feeling pink...that's a happy color right?

If you get up enough speed, and have enough room, you can get a little airborn, lol.

It doesn't, however, work on the water.

My apologies to any neighbors I might have sideswiped at the tier box this morning!

I Came For the Candy

2009-04-16T09:04:00.000-07:00

Everytime I log into SL, I see the link for info on the Bunny Jam hunt thingy...or whatever it is. It said you can win a full region for a year, for free, so I thought I'd go take the survey and look around. You can't win if you don't play, lol. I don't know what I'd do with a whole region, but hey...it could be fun!

So I tp in, click the egg I needed to do the survey, and have a look around. Be warned...it's lagtastic around the island. Tons (and I mean tons!) of adorable egg entries, but I only stayed long enough to see a few of them. Then I discovered these:

Giant Peeps! I remember eating these a couple of times as a kid, I think everyone had these things around at Easter time. Fast forward to my adult life, I bought a box of the little chicks. I bit the head off of one and threw the rest away, and remembered again that I don't even like marshmallows, much less gritty sugar in my teeth. These are too cute though! Wonder if my neighbors would think I was weird if I put one of these up on my land? LOL

Me sitting with the giant bunneh, lol.

I never did find the lucky egg, but down below the hunting area is another really cool place to check out. I set my environment to midnight, and it looked amazing. No giant peeps, or brightly decorated eggs, but plenty to see, and perfect to stop and snap a pic or two. I would have stayed to take more, but I wanted to dance, and I can never resist the urge to dance...I really think it's good for the soul. Or at least, my soul. XOXO

I'm Baaaack!

2009-04-15T05:29:00.000-07:00

After trashing my last blog, I'm starting fresh again. Not as a freebie blog, or me griping about hunts and how much stuff I end up deleting. Just me, and my little corner of the grid I call home, and the people in my life that I care about.

My life here in SL is pretty tame these days. I've mostly stayed to myself, not getting out to explore much like I did a few weeks ago. To be honest, it's been prety boring for me lately, so I decided to revive the blog and force myself to get out and see different places.

However, the only thing I've managed to do is tear my old house down, almost sell my land, then change my mind and put up the old house I had before...which turned out to be a good idea, since I saved about 200 prims and had room to put up a little dance area. One of these days I might actually use it, lol.

I still managed to use up most of the prims I had available, lol. I still miss my old home though, it had been a dream home for me, and I loved just hanging out watching youtube videos on the tv and dancing around the house. This will do though. I guess.

As always, the no drama sign is back. It's like a staple on my land, if nothing else than a reminder not to get sucked into all the drama that goes on in SL. I do admit to feeding into it a few times, but it's not something I look for here, and my RL is 99% drama free if you don't count my job, lol.

So yeah...the blog is back. Not sure where it's going yet, but here it is! RL is calling, so I'm out! XOXO
