A Movie with Friends

It's been one of those days today when all I want to do is sleep and read and lounge about on the couch doing nothing much at all... My hubbys is a movie lover and when I'm reading, he tends to put a movie on and so I have the noise in the background. 
I am a Lord of the Rings, Princess Diaries, Disney loving kind of girl... HellBone on the other hand likes all things scary... Today it was the turn of the Three from Hell... 

It gets so distracting... I'll be minding my own business reading something a little dark and smutty, and suddenly there will be the most horrendous scream that makes me jump... 
Maybe I should join him, watch a movie instead... He has always said that if he won the lottery he'd like to have his own Indoor Theatre built in the house - like the backdrop from Synnergy.Tavis - and I'd be fine with that so long as we can create our own little Movie Snack Pack bar - the movie snack carrier in the picture is the creation of Junk Food and comes complete or with all of the individual parts needed too. 
I'll curl up with my teddies and my snacks and watch a good movie, so long as it's nothing scary that will make me jump and scream... There is nothing like lazing around practicing one of the best of the seven sins... Being a Sloth is hard work - shown off by the Pitaya Deadly Sins Banners, which I plan to be playing with to playing around with as the other sins come to light over the next few weeks - but someone has got to deal with it...

The Flower Folk of Spring

March is a fairly important month, not only is it my birthday month, it's also the start of Spring officially and that means that this part of the world that I'm in life starts to start. Freshness, colours and warm sunshine become the most important things of the season... 
Second to Autumn, Spring is a time of year that I LOVE, I'm a girl that loves the dark and twisted but also the colourful pretties, and all the flowers that are springing to life make me super happy... 

Flower Fairies are just as happy as I am at this time of year, possibly more so, as it is they that are the ones that get to welcome in the flowers... Flowers of all kinds including favourites of mine like daffodils and lily of the valley, are making gardens look wonderful...

The Capture of Mr FluffySocks, Kitty Spy!

Home from work today, and I've curled up in my jammies on the sofa to find something good on tv for an evening of viewing. I wanted to read my book, but my brain has otherwise, and whilst I have a headache I just cannot think about what I want to do other than switch my brain off... There doesn't seem to be anything good to watch though, I want something with a little intrigue, a little mystery and perhaps a little randomness that will inspire my random ramblings... 

As I sat lazing, my cat came to make use of me as a warm cushion. My mind began to drift and the show on the tv about a mad scientist that was creating evil minions, which may have been somewhat altered by my sleepy state because Gru and the minions were never really all that evil, was under attack by the superhero kitty that was able to invade the secret base in their flying machine... 
Of course, and I'm not entirely sure how, but I was able to re-create this amazing vision with some super cool new creations in SL, AND a Weird Science Coat - from Hotdog. She kept things safe by wearing a pair of Tomb style glasses - from sacredsquare that are available until March 15th as a hunt prize for the Wayward Hunt. The stars of the show today though HAVE to be the monsters and they super spy kitty... Bestrals are a shy monster unless handled properly - they are available from Tardfish at Modify Event - and once trained they are loyal minions. The Super Spy kitten has been given tools to make his spying life easier, including the Meowtron - which is a companion available from the awesome Aardvark at the current round of Cyber Fair until March 25th - so he can fly through the bad guys bases and cause chaos... 

What is she wearing;
Hair: Wasabi - Kyomi Hair in Offbeat
Skin: amara beauty - Freya in Ivory
Glasses: sacredsquare - Tomb in v1.0 (Available until March 15th for the Wayward Hunt)
Outfit: Hotdog - Weird Science Coat in PVC Pack
Pose: Secret Poses - Futura, Pose 4 (Available until March 25th at Cyber Fair)
Cat: Aardvark - Meowtron Companion (Available until March 25th at Cyber Fair)
Monsters: Tardfish - Beastrals in Yellow (Available until March 31st at Modify Event)
Backdrop: VARONIS - "Level 03" Backdrop in V2 RELIGHT

A Lady Detective in the 1920s

I got very excited by a new release from a store that I'm not normally a client of. Sometimes you see something in an event and can't wait to get yout hands on it, and that's one of the things that I love about the SL shopping events. There are lots of stores brought together that you may not regularly use, but an item is released and everything changes... It was like that today with the amazing new release from Salt & Pepper at Equal10... A look that takes us back in time, to when glamour was jazzy coated with glitz...

The glitz and glamour of the 1920s, the era of the Great Gatesby, was one of highs and lows... Prohibition and mobsters, jazz and swing, it's an era that oozes decadence, especially when you see it represented in the media... Now, I know Salt Perry - owner of Salt & Pepper - has based her latest creation on the great Gatesby, but my current addiction is a tv crime series set in 1920's Australia called "Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries"... She's a lady detective in a time when men were still considered the stronger sex, and with her companion and household staff, she is out to right the wrongs and discover the truth... It's a BRILLIANT series, with some strong female characters, a little bit of steam between Miss Fisher and the detective, and lots of action too... Armed with her little gold pistol, and closing her cases with a Whiskey on the Rocks - like the ones from the Whiskey Tray set from Junk Food - this divalicious detective leaves Jessica Fletcher in the dust...

What is she wearing;
Hair: Wasabi Pills (Now WASABI) - Claudette Mesh Hair in Reds Pack
Skin: amara beauty - Freya in Ivory

It's been a few days since I was able to sit back and do a blog post, but I'm off for a few days now and therefore there could be time for some fun...

The Phoenix Will Burn...

There are things going on in my mind and I am at the brink of being exhausted, we have high season coming atg work and things are going to get even busier... I feel like I NEED to get myself some rest but for this week that won't be happen.. I'm going to have to find myself a way to be strong, burn through the exhaustion and rise like a phoenix from the flames... 

The Phoenix version of myself, I feel, would be more demonic than angellic. A twisted grace that burns hot and fast, and rises through the exhaustion to power through until she has a moment to relax and recharge... 
She's dark and mysterious, with a demonic twinkle in her eye. She wears Ngami Drapes - an old gacha collection from CUREMORE in the voodoo tribe set - and lets the dark magic of her burning swirl through the air but her ailments hang around her neck in a chokehold... She keeps good company in the Phoenix temple, the birds sitting around guarding their ashes - birdies that are older but still awesomely pretty from Hextraordinary - as she wiles away the time resting in her Soar Seat - from Krescendo at FaMESHed until March 27th - and watching the darkening clouds scatter through the sky...
