It’s Spring, and the sakura are still blooming in my skybox, and I am a little white tiger. Tiny roar!

For fun, I went to check out the newest MadPea production – Sanity Falls, a multi-sim hunt for the ransom to rescue your kidnapped spouse. I only made it to the city limits, distracted by the memes of Second Life plurkerville. I am wearing a great mesh dress from Tukinowaguma. Why didn’t I know Tukinowaguma had mesh? At 150L per dress, that’s a great place to shop for quality mesh clothing – all in standard sizes.
So RL has been kicking my butt these last couple of weeks. I think I’ve fallen asleep at my PC at least 5 times since my last post here lol. Throw in a little good old fashion SL drama and that makes for a rather distracted fortnight. So distracting in fact that I almost missed Menswear Fashion Week 2012. The event ended this past Saturday, but luckily, I was able to sneak in and pick up a few (ok, more than a few) things.

When MiaMai designer Monica Outlander and posemaker Mavi Beck have releases names Sweet and So Easy respectively, it is almost obligatory to show them together. So of course, I had to try one of the 11 fabulous colors of the new Sweet cocktail dress from MiaMai (I see there’s another color for Fashionably Late to bring it to an even dozen.) and opted for the teal. All poses in this post are from the So Easy set from MiaMai.
I spent most of my morning working on more moving in sorts of things. I decided when afternoon clouds rolled in, it was time to just relax and play.
Like the dollhouse? 1L on marketplace.

I love the bold, color-blocking in Appolonia Criss’s new dress called City Chic. She takes a very mod style and updates it with a blouson top and short, very modern sleeves.
I decided to note the military-inspird sleeves by adding the gauntlets from Nzuri, though most gauntlets don’t have adorable bows at the wrist.
This brilliant and bold color got me looking for a brilliant and bold place to shoot and that led me to the Labyrinth of Absurdity.

Palais Orleans Gallery
It’s always the nights where you just slap a few things on that you end up going out, right? So there I was between outfits (bald and barefoot doesn’t begin to cover it) when Morgana Nagorski sent me an invite to the opening of an exhibit at the Palais Orleans Gallery. It wasn’t just the exhibit that was opening — it was the first exhibit in the reborn gallery, and the first that Morgana is running as sole proprietress. So what could I do? I threw on the first folder I could find and went…
(More about the show behind the cut, including a teasing hint of artwork and a chat with the curator!)
It’s the kind of Spring day where I feel like sipping a mint julep out on my veranda and just watching the clouds roll by. Who’s with me?! OK instead I’m at work, but my avatar is about to go party with the gators in this new mesh Rebel Hope gown. It moves really, really well, and it totally covers my bunny slippers.

Sometimes I have my pictures shot and everything ready to post and I paste in the bit of code from FlickrĀ® for my first picture and come to a dead stop, tripped up by lack of a title or any sort of idea for the post. It’s then that I envy those bloggers who started out numbering their posts. I could just call this 1643 and be done with it. Instead, though, I resorted to that best of all places for help, advice and suggestions, the much-maligned world of Plurk. Within minutes I had plenty of ideas. I think the first idea was to let my cat choose my title.
Plurk is sort of like Twitter in that it is based on 140 character plurks of information, but unlike twitter, all responses hang into a single plurk drop-down window on your timeline. It has a large contingent of Second Life users and unlike so many other social media, embraces Second Life exuberantly. You can have your pseudonymous avatar account, no questions asked. You can even list your home as Second Life and Second Life has its own special front page. Because it has such a large cross-section of Second Life, it brings people from many different walks of SLife together. Anytime you have lots of people in the public square, folks will bump shoulders and have a dispute here and there. That’s human nature and is not caused by Plurk, but by the gravitational pull of the numbers of participants. However, Plurk provides all the tools we need to avoid conflict. It’s just that we choose not to mute, block and disregard. As Cassius said, “The fault, Dear Brutus, is not in the stars. But in ourselves…” Plurk is what you make it and I have found it a wonderful community of brave, bold and creative people.
