A little knowledge is a dangerous thing

I’ve been exploring SL a lot more lately (as I might’ve mentioned). I’m still in SL very lightly, and sometimes I feel like I’m in an insular bubble in which I’m floating through the world but not engaging with it, much like being a ghost. Wandering in a ghost-like manner, I stumbled across the sim of Hazardous in the Destination Guide’s editor’s picks. It was beautiful! Two pictures of the sim are below the cut.

This bubble was penetrated just a little recently when I accidentally left Apatia Hammerer stranded far up in the stratosphere (Allegory had to rescue her), and also when I gossiped all afternoon with Miss Gidge. Well, up until the poop happened.

Oh the stories that us Oldbies can tell. We both concluded that we miss the merry revelry of diving deep into SL and getting all messy with it, but along with stepping back comes a certain amount of healthy wariness. Such is slife. Anyway, I dig my shirt-dress! It’s new from Trinite. Check them out, if you like!

When Two Moms Collide

Acha and I are doomed. Whenever we try to take a picture together, RL rains down on us like fire and brimstone from a past life catching up for old sins.  Like yesterday, we tried to have a quiet Fourth of July picnic when suddenly.

 

[18:27] Gidge (gidge.uriza): ok I have a poop incident…..
[18:27] Gidge (gidge.uriza): not mine
[18:27] Gidge (gidge.uriza): but i have to go

You see, the RL, there is poop.  Continue reading

I’ve been playing SL on my husband’s PC lately, and it’s been a terrible revelation. Yes, 8G of RAM really does make a difference. Things rez, for one. And photos take less time. And a desktop monitor sure does help frame photos… Argh. I’m torn between wonder and jealousy. But because of that, I’ve also been exploring cool sims a lot more. Easier to do when you don’t crash every few seconds!

Today I traipsed around the art installation sim Rust like a colorful overly-made-up schoolgirl in my wide sunhat and my little lolita dress. I met some elephants and an enormous creepy moth. Go explore Rust over here! (More photos and credits behind the cut.)

Gidge’s Fast Five July 4 Early AM Edition

GidgeFast Five My Fast Fives nearly always begin with me ego surfing IheartSL for my own poses being blogged. Yes. I actually do that. I can’t help it, I’m an egomaniac but also, I love to see the creativity and how people use the little poses I make. And because I was ego-surfing I found some good things that it’s a moral imperative that I share with you today.

1. Cold Frog and I – Dido Haas took freebies from an art exhibit, hung items and a new release or two and made art. I love these pics.

2. Summer Breeze: Evion Ember took the time to make a Bandana for Bandana Day at Hair Fair 2013 and blogs about how rewarding the experience was and how she chose the texture for her bandana. It’s lovely. Continue reading

Ok this pose just tickled me and I had to shoot it.

I’m featuring another item from FLUX which opens tomorrow and yes if you’ve been under a rock, the theme is AMERICANA. There are going to be a lot of crazy and amazing things there, and no, it’s not EVEN all American flag stuff can you believe it?

But well yeah, some of it is. Continue reading

It’s only green.

I’ve been redecorating my little slice of SL heaven, better known as a 1536 plot.  Well I’ve been redecorating it repeatedly actually.  I have an addiction to houses, skyboxes and furniture. At the moment, I’m on the ground.  While putzing around in my new Miel frock, I noticed that it looked nice with my house and land, and so, pictures were born. A couple of things I’d like to call out in the look beside the awesomely fun frock.  My necklace is from tea.s and the headband is the jelly glitter headband from Lark!  Continue reading

Summer

Sissy did it again! I just love her new series of summer gowns. Form-fitting bodices and flowing skirts in an array of summer colors as well as prints and ombre’s, her new Arya gown will leave you standing in front of the display struggling to choose just five, let alone one.

With a lightweight summer-weight silk and a barely there bodice showing off your shoulders, it is the perfect summer formal for all your events. The pretty nails come courtesy of FLAIR’s fabulous nail appliers for Slink hands.
