1 Night Fall sm

Night will be falling soon on a couple of events – My Attic and The Arcade. Both will fade away when September ends. There are lots of bargains at My Attic – nothing is over 95L. The pose I am using from Ma Vie is part of a set you can nab for this bargain price. And the hair from -Tableau Vivant- is only a spin away at The Arcade.

While my dress is a new release at the Apple May Designs mainstore, you can pick up the red version for the princely sum of 25L for this week. You have plenty of time to get to Uber for the shoes I am wearing from fri.day, but why wait? I visited today and the crowds are manageable and the new still hasn’t worn off of these heels.

Don’t get caught napping – there will be plenty of time to sleep when night falls.

Pretty stuff I’m showing off:

*Dress: Apple May Designs Night Fall (Maitreya/Fitted) – White by Apple May

If I Pretend It’s Not There

1 Lady of the Manor2

I was working on a photo yesterday when Rwah IM’d me. We chatted for a while, with her telling me she was finally getting her sim together, and shared raw shots of photos we were working on back and forth. I was struggling with an angle and set to showcase the dress from Apple May Designs I am wearing, but Rwah just didn’t get it. Honestly, neither did I (it wasn’t this photo, by the way).

She had told me that I should come to see what she had done already, but not to go into the kitchen – it was “a bit of a mess.” Then she told me to get off my platform and use her kitchen to shoot my photo. With trepidation, I TP’d over and into the glorious, gore-fest she had created. The stuff from which nightmares spawn. Telling me to make myself at home, she then proceeded to leave me all alone in this room where horror is the recipe and terror is the final dish. Below is a (pardon the expression), raw shot of her kitchen.

I couldn’t quite bring myself to do it.

Not only am I the kind of person that watches horror movies with squinted eyes between barely-splayed fingers of one hand while gripping the thigh of my companion with claw-like talons of the other, I was suffering from that Second Life phenomenon known as texture refresh. Yes, the textures on the baby, blood and table cloth kept refreshing, making the fabric and skin appear to crawl like thousands of maggots were just beneath the surface, struggling to get out. And come at me.

No. Just NO.

So I plopped myself down in the rather safe confines of the parlour next door and included just a glimpse of the gruesome scene next door. If I pretend it’s not there, it’s not…right?

There ya go, sis. I got off my platform. Ya happy now? 😛

Tired of Waiting

1 Tired of waiting crop

Just look at me. Gorgeous! Check out those shoes – aren’t they everything delicate and feminine and girly? I’m just spectacularly pretty in pink today!

Yet, here I sit, waiting. For…I’m not quite sure. But I’m tired of waiting. Time to get off my land or platform and DO. Something. Anything. (Besides shopping.)

Taking pictures has been great therapy, but I’ve kind of forgotten why I originally joined Second Life – to meet people, have fun, socialise. Well, not exactly forgotten…just forgotten how to.

I’m digging through my “Little Book of How to Have Fun” and reading the instructions. I’ll be there, I promise.

Soon.

Speaking of soon, if you want these shoes, you need to hurry! They are from fri.day and available at Festival of Sin II in the Vanity section until tomorrow.
