Gidge’s Fast Five: April 8 or 9 I’m Tardy

GidgeFast Five

My own sloth and WoW interfered with me posting this yesterday.  I know it’s hard to believe a video game could interfere with people getting things done, isn’t it?

Anyway, here’s my fast five for yesterday also today.

1. Proceeding on Good Faith: People make mistakes. Creators, customers, etc. Paypaback Writer gives us a play by play on how she’s trying to be a good customer in the face of some kind of crazy mistakes. Reminder creators – although RL > SL you do actually have responsibilities to your customers. This is real money we are spending with you. Act like it. Continue reading →

Your Mama Wears Combat Boots

Your Mama_001

 

An insult from childhood I never quite got the INSULT part of was “YOUR MAMA WEARS COMBAT BOOTS”. I guess it means your Mama isn’t a lady. But then that flies in the face of feminism. Perhaps a throwback part doin’ the dozens with your friends. Continue reading →

The Cure For Fashion Ennui Is FASHION WEEK

Shopping Therapy_003

Cajsa rousted me from my sloth by taking me to the Avenue Retail room, where the fashion houses of SL are putting for sale the items they’ve shown on the runways. As the room began to rez, directly in front of me stood a pink dream.

So I had to have it. Continue reading →

Under The Weather And Wandering Aimlessly At Home

Staying In

 

I am feeling not so hot right now due to a RL injury. Nothing big but it’s enough for a bit of painkillers and to make me feel listless yet tired. My pixel Gidge was the same yesterday wandering around her new Haight Apartment skybox, wondering what to do with herself. Continue reading →

Calming Neutrals And New Beginnings

Barnesworth Anubis created the Haight Apartment Skybox clearly to remind me how lovely simplicity and freeing myself from clutter can be.

It’s spring, and it’s time to slough off those dead skin cells, rid yourself of those dark winter colors and embrace the warmth of the world coming alive again. Continue reading →

Easter Egging

Easter with Sophie

I decided it wasn’t going to be a proper Easter unless I fetched Sophie from vising Uncle Inventory (She was there visiting with Gogo’s baby Chris) and took her to do some Easter Egg hunting! We had to go Easter dress shopping first, and I picked her up an adorable crocheted dress and Sweet Penelope & I slipped into this lovely leather dress from Baiastice that I’ve been looking for a reason to wear.

These garden gnomes though, they seem to be confused on the HUNT concept. Continue reading →

Casual Comfort and Joy

I used to own this book, titled something like How To Live Well When Your Age and Income are UNDER 30. Oddly, it was sort of a lifestyle book for when your career and finances aren’t in keeping with the aesthetics you’d like to embrace.

It gave you advice on how to appear “all together” – always wear at least lipgloss, do you nails – do them yourself it’s cheaper. Wear a scarf, it classes up even a tee shirt. Meet friends for apps vs dinner – it’s cheaper but still conveys that social eating and drinking vibe. It taught you how to hunt for chic, fun things to do within your budget. Continue reading →

Just Visiting On A Sunday

Just Visiting

 

It seemed perfect to check out JUST VISITING on a Sunday, the traditional day of calling and visiting friends – after church of course.

I can’t remember having been here, so either it’s new or new to me but I decided it would be a more perfect world all purpley.
My Lunch Didn't Agree With Me
I tried to grab some lunch while visiting but then my lunch tried to grab me. I didn’t find this to be polite AT ALL!

Perfectly Purple

But in terms of a beautiful relaxing place to swaddle yourself in the windlight of your pleasure, it’s a perfect place.
