Boss fantasies

Boss fantasies

Here I am in reality chained to my desk like a hunched over goblin, working all day while secretly dreaming of being that boss. I too want to make dramatic entrances, with overpriced lattes in hand, sunglasses indoors just because I can. Long lunches and work “catch ups”. Meanwhile, I’m over here headset stuck to [...]

Can’t Hoover

Can’t Hoover

I can’t Hoover. But, I can move my arm to around waist level now. My shoulder did its thing again last week for the millionth time. However hoping to see the doctor because after 11 years of shoulder issues on and off this was the worst. Why? Because twice when I attempted to do something. [...]

Braless

Braless

Today I sat here in pain, my shoulder pulling like it’s mocking me. All I could manage was slipping into loose track pants and, with more effort than it should take, miserably plaiting my hair as I can’t tie it up any other way. Messy Heidi look. The rest of me? Braless and very hanging [...]

Results

I need some help right now. I feel pretty alone as I live alone and simple things such as a basket of fruit n veg I can’t pop out and get. I need my rubbish emptied and taken out and frankly I need someone to unscrew my bottle of water! Yesterday two things happened. I [...]

Dear Tuesday

Dear Tuesday

Dear Tuesday, we need to talk. You’re awkward, unhelpful, and borderline cruel. But that’s fine, because I have my Cazimi eyeshadow shimmering like a tiny rebellion on my lids, and Le Mew nails that say “I’ve got this”, even if I don’t. Fabulousness: achieved CREDITS Fae eyeshadow from Cazimi at the Designer Showcase Lemon Drop [...]

Picture Perfect

Picture Perfect

I had one of those moments where my avatar just stopped me in my tracks. There she was standing against a backdrop. Head high, posture perfect, not a single pixel out of place. Honestly? Fetching doesn’t even cover it. It’s funny how an avatar can carry a kind of confidence I don’t always channel myself. [...]

Coffee and me

Coffee and me

If I’d had a coffee stand in my living room this week, I swear I’d have been unstoppable. Instead, I’ve spent the week staring at a sad jar of instant coffee, whispering “you’ll do” like it’s a bad relationship. No latte art, no loyalty points, just shaky hands and regret. Honestly, if Starbucks wants to [...]

Tired?

Tired?

Have you ever just felt tired? Not the tired that sleep fixes. Not the kind a long weekend can cure. But that deep, heavy tiredness the one that sits in your chest and follows you through the day. It’s the tiredness of life. The endless cycles of responsibility. The constant background noise of worry, money, [...]

Wi Fi looks better on me

Wi Fi looks better on me

My avatar doesn’t just wear a bikini, she inhabits it. She struts down digital beaches like she’s starring in a music video. Her waist is snatched, her hips are perfection, and her thighs curvy but athletic. She’s the version of me that never apologizes for existing in high definition. No tan lines. No belly rolls. [...]
