1 Next To You

There is a place I will always feel welcome, always be safe and always belong. It is a place that has no boundaries, no geographical restraints and no limits of time. It is open, warm and inviting. It is the place where I go when I am tired, cold and feeling alone.

Next to you.

It is where I long to be when you are away…a homesickness that is cured only when you return. Hands held, thighs touching, head upon shoulder, smile on lips. It is my favourite destination, my secret haven. It is mine, alone. It is wherever you are, whenever you are there.

Your place is here; not just on this bench, but in my heart. Until you return I will close my eyes and reside in my joy, my happiness, my contentment. I will savour each memory like a precious gift and sigh with the comfort of each remembrance.

Next to you.

Cure For A Headache

1 Shattered

Gee, and I thought I had a headache…

I paid a visit to Cammino e Vivo Capovolto by Mistero Hifeng. It is a limited-time installation at LEA29 and it is definitely worth a trip. It is one of those places that is fine to go to by yourself, to wander and discover the creations of this talented artist.

This venue is as filled with beauty as it is with despair. As I walked about, I felt a sense of reverence for the pain and loss depicted by each vignette. I won’t say I enjoyed it; rather, I felt as if I had been allowed the privilege of having a glimpse of private anguish and loss.

On a happier note, the dress I am wearing from Salt & Pepper is available for this round of Shiny Shabby. It comes with a texture-change HUD to give you a variety of looks.

A little shopping is always better than a painkiller.

Dinner At 8

1 Dinner at 8

It is a limited menu for a very discerning diner. The table is set, the candles are lit and there is a fresh breeze gently fluttering the curtains. All that is missing is my dinner companion. If he doesn’t come soon, I may have to start without him.

Shiny Shabby has just opened and among the fabulous goodies you can pick up are the Zee Dining Set (for swingers) by Kuro and a great set of sitting poses by !bang. Also, Apple May Designs has released this sexy corset, which works well with the previously-released Kia lingerie set. The red version of the corset is available at the main store this weekend for only 25L. You can also pick up the lovely necklace (with matching earrings) at Salt & Pepper.

I was sure the lure of these new additions would ensure my date arrived on time!

Is it just my imagination, or is that moose smirking at me?
