It’s spooky season, my favorite time of year. Black cats, spiders, ghosts and ghouls are some of my favorite things so you can imagine my joy on an every day basis as I wander the grid in October.
LOGO gave away a free female and male head (just join the group) recently so I ran over to pick them up (yes both why not) and I have to admit – it’s really rather lovely. I hadn’t been there before.
I stopped by a market Cajsa recommended. It’s a lovely city that is a bloggers paradise. So much to use here for backdrops. It’s called You and ME.
Plus it’s a lovely little city that I am now going to visit regularly – it’s a great place to shop for my grid life.
I spent my shopping trip tweaking this new new Logo head. I did this and that and the everything and I “think” I finally turned her into her Gidgiest self.
That’ll do pig, that’ll do.

Logo is celebrating their 15th anniversary of creating in Second Life, and for the occasion they have released two new heads, one female, one male, available for free at the Logo Anniversary event. For the occasion, a bunch of talented creators have released add ons for the heads. The skins, make-ups and other customisation options offered at the event are all surprisingly cheap.
I had planned to talk to you about this week’s finds at Fifty Linden Fridays but, as you can see, it is now Saturday and I guess most things aren’t available anymore. Booh me. Anyway, Dead Doll’s cute dress and Ingenue booties are absolutely lovely and compliment each other perfectly.
Magika just released the Gemma hair, and as usual, I just had to get it. Look how pretty it is!
I have to say, I’m really liking this head so far. I’m not completely done tweaking the mouth and nose to have it look like “me”, but I’m getting there.

I would like to invite you to a fiendish event that opens today. You will be able to find macabre items, and to search for the lost keys in a hunt for only the truly insane!
When you arrive at Hallow Manor, you enter the gates to find a winding alley of goods that have been created with the macabre and frightful in mind. Once you have purchased everything your little black heart desires, you will enter the grounds of Hallow Manor’s cemetery, and perhaps catch a glimpse of the old estate.
You will have an opportunity to purchase a HUD in order to search for the lost keys to unlock the hidden prize room, or, if you so wish, purchase a master key HUD, to bi-pass the hunt.
My personal favourites at the event so far are the gorgeous boots from Eclectica. They come in many floral tones and both the mesh and textures are exquisitely made. They’re also very volatile as they are texture change and you can modify different parts separately.
You may also want to hunt for the Macabre Girl Set from Lovelysweet, the tattoo layers are insanely cute, in a macabre, creepy way.

Gogo recommended the Halloween Experience over at the MILLBANK sim and I decided that once I had a cup of coffee it was time to get in the spirit. After all – this is one of my FAVORITE times of year on the grid. There is a haunted tour which is delightfully spooky.
It was a lot of fun, but then something weird happened. Right after I crossed over the cemetery…
I passed by this dude and his dog on a foggy street. I assume he lived there? I mean, it’s a street – I guess these are someone’s homes? Spooky people’s homes but homes nonetheless. Anyway, as i float along a walking path I realize that he is running behind me. He’s following me!
WHY? What are you doing ?
He never spoke to me, but he and his big dog essentially chased after me the last 1/3 of the tour, following me like some creepy killer. It was actually unnerving.
It reminded me a lot of the early days of the grid where noobs like me wouldn’t have their lots restricted and people would barge in and threaten you, as though they could do something to you. They couldn’t, but it was scary and weird when it would happen. I’m not sure why this dude was following me or what he was even doing. Maybe I just happened to be taking his favorite dog walking path.
Except dogs in SL don’t ACTUALLY have to be walked.
I’m totally getting my big dog out when I get home. This is some boo sheet.

I decided to share off my ennui with some good old fashioned planning. I figured if I force myself to do things on a schedule It might help drive away some of the fatigue I seem to be belaboring under. I’m feeling rather excited so – this might just work! Who knows?
Fueled by pizza and pop, I’m ready to make this a productive week on the grid.
How’s your week shaping up?

I have to admit that one of the things I LOVE most about BOM being a thing is my ability to pull out RIDICULOUS things from the beginnings of SL and wear them. SUCH AS – these jeans from Butterfly Island – was that the place or the brand? The brand – was it Coconut Ice? Man I can’t remember….. Oh Butterfly Island, I coveted all your things once upon a time. I bought them, I stalked the lucky chairs, I was a fairy more often than not.
I went back once a couple of years ago or more and was nostalgic and sad for how amazing it used to be – and how it simply had not kept up in the way old stores don’t sometimes.
Thus, I put on my fairy jeans and relive my love of those days when belts were painted on our pants and we thought that was just lovely.
The secret these days, of course, is simply not to move too much in your BOM pants or that waistline slips around like crazy and you look nuts. Thus, I took may photos and tried to find the least nuttiest.
I don’t care. I still love these jeans. Weird painted fairies and all.
Now who wants to help me eat this gummy bear? This thing is ridiculous.

Hello there! It’s finally September, children are back at school, and I’m ready for all the lovely Autumn soft and cozy clothes. I’m this close to pumpkin-spicing everything!
How cute is this outfit from RKKN ? It’s really well made, and comes in a bunch of lovely tones and various options. I have a thing for suspenders, too, so this was perfect for me!
