Who Are You In Other Worlds?

I got to wondering, over my breakfast, what my SL friends are like in their other worlds? I don’t play a LOT of video games, but I do play World of Warcraft and I’ve created a cast of characters that, despite the lack of customization in that world, all have a BIT of Gidginess to them. I thought I’d show you mine, and hope that maybe for fun, you’d show me yours. Continue reading

I Traveled To Tokyo With Flowers In My Hair

I wanted to go shopping somewhere new, so I put in SHOPPING MALL into SEARCH.

After wading through a bunch of places that had keywords shopping, shopping mall, big shopping mall, best shopping mall, shopping mall of the shopping, etc etc etc I found someplace that looked interested, said it was anime themed and I didn’t have anything better to do so I popped over.

Noob Surfing

So it seems odd but I don’t actually recall ever properly surfing. I’ve used surf boards as props, but I can’t remember ever riding one out on the waves. So I decided to do that this morning.

I learned some things. Such as, I’m impatient. I kept clicking REZZ on the surfboard sign, and it kept not rezzing and I’d click it again and nothing and I’d click it again and again and finally I was thinking HELL FORGET IT when I moved my camera angle I saw, OH, they were rezzing on the other side of a small brush of sea grass in front of me.

So I chose one of 20 and took off. Continue reading

!OHMai It’s Bedtime

I took a walk around the LOVE DONNA FLORA sim last night and stumbled into Anya Ohmai’s booth where she is selling these adorable bunnies to snuggle.

It’s so cute, you can change the buttons, the flag or the color of the whole bunny. And it’s perfect for night time snugglies. Continue reading

Prepping for Love Donna Flora and Sunday Dinner

I started out my Sunday perfectly, in a beautiful vineyard with a winding country road. Every few meters a cart or tent awaits a creator to come fill it with it’s goodies for the upcoming LOVE DONNA FLORA event.

I drug my heavy boxes and pose stand down the path until I got to my tent and got set up before the morning sun made me too hot.

I did end up stopping in the courtyard at the center of the build at the event, just to enjoy the scenery and have a cool drink.  It was about that time that I realized, I hadn’t SHOPPED ALL DAY!

I decided to rectify this immediately. Continue reading

The Truth About Mornings

I wasn’t sure how to start my day after I’d taken the time to get dressed and do my nails. I knew I wanted breakfast but couldn’t decide on what I was willing to bother making.  I’m lazy in both worlds and I’m afraid we both skip breakfast more than we should.

Pixel Gidge decided that cake is breakfast too. It also gives me a chance to show you her new dining room set. Ria Bazar released the Toronto dining set and it’s larger than my old set which, although I loved it, was what I wanted. My linden house seems to be proportioned for back when furniture WAS so much larger and I always feel like huge portions of it are empty. It was about 500 lindens for the whole set, table rug, cabinet, lamp etc – so a STEAL. Continue reading

Cajsa Fast Five: July 13th

Fast Five I know it has been ages since I posted a Fast Five. I have been incredibly busy organizing the Love Donna Flora event that I hope each and everyone of you will attend between July 25th and August 11th.

 

  1. Hydrangea: River Pearl/Pearl Grey at Million Happy Endings has gorgeous photos from the sim Hydrangea and says it’s impossible to take a bad picture. She certainly didn’t. 
  2. Challenge Gallery 46: Pot – Whiskey Monday over at Single Frame Stories posted the entries for pot and, of course, that word was interpreted in more than one way. For the fun and fabulous photos – head over to Single Frame Stories.
  3. Malibu Inspiration Open House: You won’t want to miss Editorial Clarity-Flux’s open house. It ends Sunday, so hurry. The details are on the Love to Decorate blog.
  4. Yes, I Know, I’ve Been Missing In Action: Wise Sandalwood catches us up a few really tough months and posts another inimitable photo in that style that is distinctly her own.  Hop on over and give her a virtual hug, or a friend comment.
  5. From Here to Ipernity: Frustrated by Flickr’s recent changes and that awful Yahoo bar? Well, Cieran Laval has switched to an alternative and does a comprehensive explanation of the pros and cons.

I Will Send This Fairy to My Friend Squinternet

I talked to my friend Squinternet today, for whom my other friend Cajsa is organizing a fundraiser.  We talked about several things today, about how she felt, and how expensive it is to have a night nurse and so that’s why she doesn’t have one. It means she doesn’t have help in the night if there are problems.

We talked about hospitals and medicine, and being strong and losing hope, and finding it again. We talked about dying. Continue reading

Artis Natur indeed

His house is in the village though

I’ve become addicted to the Destination Guide. My modus operandi is to open it up and click on the first listing that I see for each category, and I end up in some lovely and picturesque places. This one is called Artis Natur. Apparently (according to Helena Stringer) this sim was closed to the public and “invite-only” for a while. They must’ve opened it up, because some random dude tried to hit on me as soon as I got to the sim’s teleport hub. At least, I think he was hitting on me, it was something like “Heeeey [Russian characters]”. Maybe he was simply asking the time?

Anyway Artis Natur is a fine place to sport my new sundress from GATO (at The Dressing Room) and antlers form Schadenfreude. Happy exploring!  You can go visit the sim here.

Whose woods these are

Antlers: Schadenfreude Ceryn Flora Antlers
Tattoo: Garden of Ku tattoo dragon

Skin: Plastik Astrali (Basic) Summer Heat

I Hired a Personal Assistant Fairy

I decided that it was high time I too acknowledged how fancy and important I was by getting myself a personal assistant in SL. However, I didn’t want one I would pay a pittance and then would be responsible for answering customer NCs if they came in, and for reminding me to make items for events.

No, I wanted on that would be at my beck and call 24/7 and who would make things appear that I wanted, for no other reason than because I was dreaming of them in RL. I wanted someone with MAGIC.

So, I got myself a fairy. Continue reading
