One of the joys of Second Life is allowing us to inhabit parallel lives, the lives we dreamed in our youth. Like many of you, I dreamed of all sorts of “when I grow up” scenarios. Mostly I said I wanted to be an archeologist when I grew up, but there were times when I declared my intent for president, supreme court justice, artist and dancer. Of course, I did grow up to inhabit none of these dreams, finding instead my adult dream as a political activist. I am happy with my adult dreams and only feel a faint nostalgic wistfulness for my childhood dreams. How fun it is, though, to live those dreams as an avatar. This season’s offerings from The Arcade are really the stuff dreams are made of.

Weekend Getaway
I wanted a weekend getaway and Cay’s at Woodland Lake was having a weekend long party – so it was JUST the place to getaway! I found just the right thing to wear too at Mon Cheri…. this long, casual dress is just the thing to make you feel relaxed for a party on the docks.

Take a Time Out….
at TIME OUT! I was looking for a place to do a bathing beauty post and this sim was recommended to me and you really should take a look around. I went to a Relay for Life beach party last night and I knew I could get the look I wanted from Mon Cheri. She had JUST the suit I was looking for. Collabor88 has got me in the “rock-a-billy” mood. I think this look fits the bill… don’t you?

She Does Saucy Surreal Science by the Seaside
I had some fun over at SAUCE, the new installation at LEA 25. The LEA sims are provided by the Linden Endowment for the Arts to allow artists a chance to create big installations to share with the SL community. SAUCE is an installation from Maya Paris and it is a fun, colorful, and surreal place to explore.
I was ready for anything in this fun outfit featuring two items from Baiastice. The skirt was released at Collabor88 this month and the top is from 2013. The skirt was released with two coordinating tops, but I thought it would be fun to find something different to wear with it. Generally speaking, if items are made by the same designer, they will be the same size and have the same natural waist and so on, so when looking for something to coordinate with mesh clothes, it’s easiest to start with the same designer. The skirt is adorable and comes in a range of prints and solids.
Dots Dots and More Dots!
I love dots.. can you tell?
I went shopping at My Attic @ The Deck (May 21st – May 31st) yesterday and when I saw these adorable shoes from Pure Poison and this cute dress from DCNY I just had to have it! The cute peek-a-boo midriff is just adorable!

Do These Glasses Make Me Look Smart?

The glasses and necklaces from YUMMY this round of COLLABOR88 are rocking my socks, nearly as much as anything else. It’s difficult when one of your favorite styles in SL is all around you, to choose which thing you like best. So I won’t choose. I love the hair, I love the skin, I love the decor, I just LOVE it all.
That’s unusual. Some bloggers rave how much they love everything and while I don’t blog things I dislike, I don’t always LOVE everything anywhere. Even events I really enjoy, there are often pieces I think, eh, not me. Continue reading
Busy old fool, unruly Sun
BUSY old fool, unruly Sun,
Why dost thou thus,
Through windows, and through curtains, call on us ?
Must to thy motions lovers’ seasons run ?
Saucy pedantic wretch, go chide
Late school-boys and sour prentices,
Go tell court-huntsmen that the king will ride,
Call country ants to harvest offices ;
Love, all alike, no season knows nor clime,
Nor hours, days, months, which are the rags of time. Continue reading
A storm is threatening
Oh, a storm is threatening
My very life today
If I don’t get some shelter
Oh yeah, I’m gonna fade away
“Gimme Shelter” sing the Rolling Stones and that is what the folks at Japan Fair were all about. Japan Fair was a fundraiser for ShelterBox. It closed last night, but here’s hoping it was a very successful event.
