W Is For Willy

1 W is for Willy

I am totally blaming Grumper for this one. Way back when I was shooting the photos for the letter F, Grumper wanted me to do a recreation of the movie poster for “Free Willy.” I laughed and asked if he meant a freenis. He was appalled. (He has an affinity for animal characters; don’t ever go talking smack about Peppa Pig!)

Alas, I had already done my photo for the letter F, so I let it go. That is until W was imminent. And although W is a rather common letter, doing a take on Free Willy just seemed more and more appealing.

I had the rocks. I live on an island. I could make the pose. I even had the outfit. All I needed was Willy.

Now, to be honest, I seriously considered using a freenis. I actually have a couple in my inventory – gag gifts I have received over the years. But I didn’t have one that had the right bend to it to mimic Willy’s arching back (sorry guys). So, that meant that if I was going to do this, I would have to *gulp* buy one.

I couldn’t do it.

Unfortunately, I didn’t have a single whale in my inventory. I toyed with the idea of using the friggin’ laser shark, but he has no arch to his back and his laser beam kept interfering with the sunset.

That left me with procuring an Orca. Now, I know I said at the beginning of this challenge I wasn’t going to buy anything specifically to complete one of my posts. But since Willy is now swimming and leaping about in the bay, I can claim he was purchased to enhance our island living. I don’t even have to cross my fingers!

Oh, and I’m not kidding about the inexpensive part. I got three sizes for L$210. Every girl should be spoiled for choice when it comes to deciding on a Willy 😉

Sleeping Beauty

1 Princesses Only

Anyone who is owned by a cat will see a few truths in this photo. First, all cats are royalty, regardless of gender. Second, if you have a rug in the home your feline friend shares with you, it will always look like the one in this photo – why bother straightening it when you know as soon as she wakes it will be scrunched and piled to her liking? And third, no matter how much money you spend on a special bed for her, she will choose her own spot to curl up for a nap.

When I saw this darling kitty from StoraxTree, I didn’t even bother to slip on a pair of shoes – I just ran directly to the pier market @ The Docks to adopt her. I even grabbed a couple of friends for her – a grey tabby and a sweet little black and white pusskin. There are two others, and although this is a no-copy item, at only 55L each, you can afford to take home more than one.

I crept in quietly, afraid to disturb these slumbering sweeties – a princess needs her rest, you know 😉

Kind Of A Rerun

1 Sunlight at Duskep Sideshow 2 L

I didn’t get in world yesterday to take any photos, so I played around with another shot I took the day I had my “happy accident.” I kind of forgot about this one after I saw the shadow on the sail.

There is nothing you haven’t seen before in this photo. Does that make me lazy? Maybe. It may be kind of a rerun, but if television shows would take a leaf out of my book and change up the ending of the episodes they repeat it would go a long way to increasing ratings.

It might even make me plug in my TV again.
