I have just had my hair straightened by my daughter for the evening and discovered tomorrow its likely to rain. Now, what’s the point in that.
I have the wildest hair in RL and yet its straightens like silk quite fast. Put a drop of water to it, well the explosion of curl is down right instant.
So I am guessing, by the time I actually turn up at work tomorrow, I wont look any different than I did 1 hour ago before the GHD’s got to my locks.
Which led me to reflect on this sim sitting under the beach umbrella, all dressed up but not able to as it is raining.
Just to say this outfit actually comes in a number of colours, but I haven’t been able to dazzle you with that in this blog, because I have been in RL most of this evening. Shocking to say the least.
According to the morning news we will reach the heady heights of around 21 celcius locally today. Serious dressing decisions had to be made on my part for the day ahead.
Out comes the linen dress and the pale pink lippy. I’m ready to be Miss Spring.
I absolutely love spring. The blossom trees, daffodils and tulips adorning gardens and the smell of fresh cut grass everywhere as people excitedly get themselves ready for some outside living.
Then of course sunglasses.
In RL I have something like 7 pairs of sunglasses that I never wear.
Yesterday was a crazy Monday in RL with work and I’m guessing that today is likely to be as well.
Actually the last few years have been that way if you work for government departments in the U.K.
Since the debt crisis hit a few years back we have had a rollercoaster of cuts after cuts happening in the work force which has led to so many restructures that I’m wondering exactly when do they say it’s time to stop.
Currently it’s a never ending thing and it certainly does nothing to help with the stress levels many people are feeling. More work, less hours and most noticeably less pay.
So if anyone ever asks you why do you visit SL? The answer most logically is that it’s a place where you don’t need to have worry and that you can walk the streets safely knowing that the only real harm that can come your way is perhaps a sharp tongue that you just press the mute button on.
Oh and the only fashion crisis is, which colour shall I click on wearing today.
Speaking of colours my video will show you the crazy range in this jumpsuit today.
One of the main past times for me in SL has always been dancing.
Seriously who doesn’t love watching their pixel person bust a move?
However these days I dance alone because I’m always on the move and I’m one of those people who makes decisions as quick as it takes to press enter on your keyboard.
I originally decided this would be a simple picture blog and the sim was just my backdrop.
I’m a sucker for EDM, trance etc and well when I heard the music I decided to dance, and in turn I thought what the heck video!
So yes what turned out to be a simple blog picture, progressed into my pixel busting her moves at Woods Club sim.
Seriously I have literally spent any time I have had in SL today when not doing Mothers day things, riding my horse!!!
I have to say its the best thing I have every purchased and believe me I own some horses already. But this is pure genius and I love it. Just had to say.
That’s about as tough as my tough girl look can go.
Last night in pixel planet was one of mixed emotions. Firstly a project I had been commissioned to do, one of the participants suddenly decides to message me stating they are no longer part of the project and that I had to completely change the work I have done and all the hours (and I mean hours) and remove their name from the credits OR else would file a take down of my work on you tube. Number 1 that persons name is not real and number 2 I have the confirmation of that persons approval of the work. Oh and number 3, the name is not copyright.
Arent people rather precious at the best of times! I don’t buy into other peoples SL dramas and this is one of the reasons. One of the great reasons I’m known for being solitary in this world as I’m not one to be part of pretend dramas. Normally I also don’t allow myself to be commissioned to do anything for this very same reason. People are as fickle as the wind.
Never mind the apology of all the work I had done etc etc and never mind that this person actually is not the person who commissioned the work or paid me for it in the first place.
Only the person who paid me can have the rights to change.
However I have removed this persons name and so the SL drama unfolding can go back into the drawer.
Secondly I’m standing in a club and a woman says about the dude I have liked a long while how she had her way with him…one of the many he obviously never mentioned.
Again aren’t people fickle in SL…
Now this is my tough girl look…hear me roar!!! ha ha
In the UK the clocks change for daylight saving hours this weekend. So I’m guessing spring is on it’s way.
The clocks change always messes up my sleep patterns for weeks after.
But, I love the moment it changes as I come home from work in daylight and still have daylight for a few hours after.
It’s about that life balance and having time for what we enjoy. It’s funny how daylight actually makes you feel you get more time. In actual fact you haven’t got more time. There are still only 24 hours for a day but that day feels longer when it is lit up with brightness and you still see the sun.
The sounds of children playing outside in the early evenings, people chattering as they sit in their gardens and that smell of BBQ dinners as people migrate outside as the weather warms.
But the best bit? The sound of the ice cream van as it visits every day at the same time.
Yes, this little pixel dress and sunglasses made me think of icecream. My favourite part of summer. The 99 pence soft serve icecream with the chocolate flake shoved inside.
