Cajsa and I had a date for a fancy black tie event but then she wasn’t well. I however was already dress so I decided to do a bit of wandering. I was having a stroll down memory lane – wondering if the old Moulin Rouge was still there. It’s not. There’s a new club of the same name but it’s none the same, nothing ever is.
It did however have nice people, friendly people even. That was what I loved so much about the old one, gone now for so many years. All the fun with our friends – I wonder where they’ve all scattered to?

The Tree is up – the harpsichord is playing a lovely sarabande and I’m really settling in to my new place. It’s brand new – no one ever lived in it before me – kind of a fun idea. I lived over at Meadowbrook and I’m sure it had previous tenants – it had that noob smell. But these Victorians are fresh off the griddle. I’m liking this huge space and beautifully landscaped parks and streets.
What I’d like to see next are towns, make us a little market, a little church and a post office. Complete the narrative of these little neighborhoods with beautifully curated places for us.
What do you think should be next? Mass transit? Little villages? What would help complete the narrative of our communities for YOU?
My second night in my home finds me not sleeping on the sofa but comfy in the bed of the moment, I might have to get out something else. I’ve got too many beds, I’m not sure which one I want to use.
Ingenue’s Lisette dress comes in more colors than the rainbow. This is melon. I added Izzie’s Sheer Tights, one of the best investments ever.
I am always fascinated by how people think of and describe Second Life. Some people say it’s a game and some say a virtual form of social media. I think of it as a community center with infinite rooms for infinite communities to grow and develop. It’s like yeast, fermenting creativity and community.
I’m so excited that fall is finally here. Sway’s offers up gorgeous pumpkin offerings for your fall decorating.
I had been wanting something a little different for pumpkins this year. I am hoping we have a lot of fun Halloween decor on the Gangway. Do you suppose we will? I still haven’t met any neighbors. Maybe my whimsical pumpkins will attract some!
I hope I don’t go too overboard this year. I think I did too much last year. I’ll try not to add the shrieking banshee. Try. It’s a while till Halloween though, no promises.
This hair from Exile is a fun surprise from the back. So pretty.
Well I’m definitely not done, but this is some serious progress, I have to say.
October is coming! I am ready!
Happy little Linden home.

I awoke with one mission, SOLVE this fridge issue. My fridge is ridiculous. I mean I even have more than one but I don’t love most of them. I love the stupid giant one because it’s fun but really, it’s too tall so I needed to find something else.
ALSO, I needed groceries. And a shirt.
MAGIC
Somehow I managed to get a rare Fridge from Ariskea at the Epiphany. I LOVE the lemon yellow print which is it’s THING but I’d have to redo my whole house if I suddenly wanted lemon yellow walls in the house so eh. I’m just thrilled it has a pink option, honestly. How considerate!
I might be decorating early
I confess I also put up some lights that one might construe as Halloween Lights. Perhaps they are just lights of happiness. You don’t know.
Cool breeze from the sea blows in….
I’ve got a good book and a mug of hot chocolate to encourage me to slumber. Is it a perfect Saturday? Entirely possible.
How was your day? I hope it was full of happiness.

Did you ever not notice something and then suddenly you’re like WHAT THE EFF ?
That’s me this morning. Why is my refrigerator GIANT? I’ve been a pretty tall pixel girl my whole SLife. I’m not glamazon “I AM A MODEL” tall, but I’m not a shorty.
Yet suddenly I realize I can’t see in to my own freezer! And this is where the ice cream is, so this is a real tragedy.
But where there is a will, there is a way…
Mermaid Ice Cream for Breakfast
I mean, breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Even if you have to climb up your fridge like a spider monkey to get it!

I’m slowly getting settled here on the Gangway and I have to admit, I’m more than a bit tickled to be able to paint my walls and outside of my house at a simple touch. POOF new color. How much does that amaze me? And why hasn’t everyone been doing this with their houses forever? Now make it so I can paint each wall individually and I’ll be happy.
I’ve been trying to wrap my mind around Tuesday things all morning, and then I realized – It’s Wednesday!
Pink Car, Purple House, Perfect World
Wednesday of course means I should wander and find something new. I hopped in my most perfectly Gidgey car and hit the road. I’ll go find a cafe, grab some coffee and pastry and set off to see what’s out there in the world that’s good today. Sounds like a plan, doesn’t it?
Blue skies, nothing but blue skies….

Well it happened, with a lot of help and encouragement from my friend Gogolita I managed to get a spot on Bellisaria on the newly opened Gangway. Fate would have it that Cajsa has a houseboat right in front of my house, which is backed by a park behind me and a lovely stretch of road in front.
It’s a nice little suburban wonderland really.
SO you know I just had to get all crazy trashy with A GIANT HELLO KITTY SLIDE. It’s not my fault, I had to. At least for a little while
Hair Fair Is Over, Thank Goodness I at least shopped.
Cajsa managed to get off the Hair Fair press releases this year, as I was completely swamped. But I did manage to get over and do my part shopping that awesome event, I picked up several new hairs and felt warm and fuzzy when they were really contributing to Wigs for Kids. Hair Fair is such an amazing event – I hope you went.
Happy Here
This little home may be my home base for a while. Pity my neighbors i’m about to decorate for Halloween!

Good morning all. I’m slowly getting my morning motivation going. I’ve got to go grocery shopping, maybe see if anything is left from FLF (I forgot to go yesterday ouch), and do some house cleaning.
I stopped over at the Notice me Senpai event and picked up this cute top in a gacha. It’s a cute event.
What are your plans for this weekend? I feel like I need to be social. BUT WILL I? Stay tuned…

Well, I almost moved yesterday. I have toyed with the idea of moving to one of the new Linden homes, I rather like the idea yet – I’m terribly happy here on my little patch of mainland truly. Living in this snowy land with my friend Putrid as my neighbor is comforting and dozy. I keep the fires blazing and truly, I don’t have complaints.
Yet, I’m intrigued by the neighborhood concept over on Bellisaria.
I have never seen a NEW Linden neighborhood available on the Linden home list, so yesterday in a bit of leisure time I consulted the knowledge base known as Plurk and was assured that I was looking in the right place – that they just don’t show up if they are not available. I was told to refresh aggressively and that would be my best shot at getting one when one popped up available.
Choices choices choices
I did this a few times, just for grins, when suddenly one popped up. It said to name my land and hit continue and I do confess, in a panic, I DID SO. I didn’t think about whether or not I wanted to move I was just suddenly hit with this moment of “OH NO THIS IS IT THIS IS MY CHANCE!” and hit continue.
Happy Where I Am
And then it said I had to get rid of my current 1024, or have 1024 available or something and well my friends, it was over.
I came home in a state of disappointment until I sat down again in front of my fire, in my wooden shelter surrounded by snowy mountains and I remembered “I like it here.”
My friend Luna Jubilee cam over for waffles and I realized I’m not ready to move house again, not yet. I don’t need to move to visit and socialize – the grid is one of the few places in the world where distance isn’t a viable hindrance to anything.
So I’ll stay put.
I just have to figure out what to wear with these ice cream shoes I got at Gachaland.
Happy Monday, girls.
