And Still She Waits

1 And Still She Waits

A woman knows the face of the man she loves as a sailor knows the open sea.
Honore de Balzac

And when he is away, she waits.

I took this photo looking out of the upper window of the Scarlet Apple Neva Captain’s House. It was a gift from my friend, Rwah. I landed there on accident. Well, actually, since there is no direct access to the upper level, I had to get up there. After floating/flailing for several minutes and double-click TPing multiple times I managed to land in front of the window. For in a seafarer’s cottage that window must be accessible – so the captain’s love can watch for his return.

There will be more, Rwah. Thank you for this wonderful gift ❤

Hola Esteban, Adiós Fernando

1 Breaking in Esteban

Esteban, my new computer, that is. He’s quicker and has prettier graphics. I admit to feeling a little shy about meeting him myself.

I’m not used to fast boys.

Feeling Fall-ish

1 Feeling Fallish

I have to admit that when I went to Collabor88 this month, I really wasn’t feeling the fall mood. Here in Australia we have just headed into spring and it’s been an unseasonably warm one. In fact, the day I hit Collab, it was 32 degrees Celsius (that’s almost 90F). I still managed to find a few items I liked enough to add to my wardrobe.

Then, today, the temperature dropped by 10 degrees Celsius and with a rather strong breeze blowing, it felt more like autumn. And I began to feel a bit fall-ish. So I set up the Trompe Loeil Fireplace Patio kit and slipped into some autumn duds.

I will mention, in all fairness, that this jacket doesn’t really work with these pants, except in certain poses. I certainly wouldn’t wear it out, but I really did love this look. And since I have this blazing fire beside me, although it is outdoors, I don’t mind baring a little calf and cleavage.

Just because there is a nip in the air doesn’t mean I can’t show a bit of skin 😉
