The Right Shoes For The Job!

It's Friday night, I've just got home from work and for me I'm now in my jammies curled up on the sofa with a cuppa tea and my cat. I've had a long day and now I want nothing more than a chance to relax... I'm nearly 40 but by body is trying to tell me I'm closer to 70 it seems LOL... 
I work in retail, you may know that by now, but I often wonder how I'd feel doing another type of job... Rudh on the other hand has NO such issue... She is and will always be a bit of a hooker LOL... 

She's gotten to work wearing some GORGEOUS but comfortable shoes - the Bobby Shoes from AsteroidBox at the current round of ACCESS - and into something a little more fitting for her work as a dancer in the strip club on this lovely Friday Night. Slipping into the corridor of the dance hall, shaking the glitter off all over the floor and bypassing all of the props that are stashed in the crates just inside the door, the girls are able to grab their shoes and even grab a new pair of panties from the Panti-o-matic...

What Can I Getcha?

I should stop taking the time to work on blog pictures when I am hungry, at least that's what I try and tell myself but I'm not sure how well that will ever work. I tend to start working on something bloggish before I've even had my breakfast in the morning and then I get distracted, PLUS I love collecting food in SL. I guess it's one of my guilty pleasure collections, and I own up to my collecting addiction... If I ever get bored in SL, maybe I should open a diner... 

You'd be welcomed in with a smile and a "Welcome to Rudhie's Retro Yums Diner"... The menu would be filled with some super delicious delights. I am partial to a burger, whether that is a Chicken Burger - like the one from Junk Food which is central in the picture - or a Hamburger - on the right from Lucas Lameth, the 1950s Diner Burger - or even perhaps a hugely stacked Club Sandwich - also from Lucas Lameth - with a side of fries or chips, crisps if you are like me and a little bit British... I'd serve cold sodas and thick shakes, hot coffee and fancy teas in tea pots... I might even serve cake, it's have to be cake because I'm a cake rather than pie kinda girl... 
Are you hungry? What can I getcha?

Trouble Under The Sea!

When I get a random idea for a blog post they tend to be the ones that make me smile the most. I will always admit that half the time when I start a picture I have NO idea where it will go or what the outcome will be but I have to say that these are the pictures that make me happiest. The entire reason that I blog is a chance to forget the world around me and find a little happiness, so the ones that make me laugh most are the best for me... 

Today was one of those days, and so while I was putting my ideas together I decided to go for a little swim and see where the ideas went... 
I was wearing a bathing suit - which is actually an amazing outfit from Psycho Barbie called Narkissa that ISN'T a bathing suit but looked perfect as a wetsuit, and I'm sorry to the Psycho Barbie team for misuse of their clothing lol - and splashing around in the water. I took a deeper dive down into the water and that was when the trouble went from barely there to TERRIBLE. I guess it may well be my own fault though as I have to stop myself reading so much of that monster smut LOL...

Bang Bang!

I wonder sometimes when I watch movies, especially the action kind, would I prefer to be on the side of the hero or the villain. When I was a little girl - and I'll not hide that it is still true now I'm a big girl too - I was always on the side of the hero, especially in the case of the Disney films that I chose. For example, I LOVE the Little Mermaid, and when I was a kid I wanted to be Ariel, now that I'm an old lady I feel more aligned with Ursula... So perhaps when I grew up I was destined to feel more like I'm hiding a villain deep inside, although plenty of people will tell you I'm a good girl... 

So I don't know about you but when I start working on a blog post I NEVER know where I'm going to bewhen I finish it. Ideas never seem to come easy and when they do form it's like magic... I'm not as creative as some people, and I'm not as able to creative such high quantities of blog posts as I'd like but to think that what I do makes others smile as much as they do me...
Today's post randomly came to me when I was thinking about things to do with Villains... I pulled on a look and for some reason I ended up with a weird Gotham style feeling... Maybe I'll make a Batman adversary, maybe I'll be able to be in league with the Joker...

Asking for my Fortune

At the start of every year, people always seem to be asking me whether or not I've made any new years resolutions. Some years I try to, and others I tend not, but then this year I HAVE made one and it's a very loosely set one. It could be interpreted in lots of different ways, and I'm quite happy to keep it open and flexible... I'm going to put more faith in the fortune telling machines than any resolutions though... 

The Fortune Teller - a release from Krescendo for the still running round of The Fifty until January 20th - may not give me the yearly resolution that I could work towards but their fortunate suggestions are just ambiguous enough that maybe they will help me out, a little?!

A Little Spiritual Magic

I still feel the need for a little magic and since the Angel sacrifice helped to stop the snow and melt away what snow there was, I heard things about weather warnings and so I NEED MORE Magical interferrance so that the snow stays away and that I can get to and from work safely for the next few days... 
I'm going to reach out to some of the other spirits and see if I can get a little more help... 

The Spirit that I have found today happens to be a Soul Spirit and they have a lot more influence on the world around them than you might think... The Mask Soul worn on her face - is a mask from BeSpoke - hides the way she's really feeling but her magic is all-encompassing. She can work her magic to help everything from luck, love and in my case, even the weather... 

What is she wearing;
Hair: Tableau Vivant - Editorial in Laying Funky
Mask: BeSpoke - Mask Soul in Wisp
Tears: CURELESS [+] - Dragon Tears & LaGyo - Matilda Crystal Tears

Angellic Sacrifice

So today I had to have the day off for a Snow Day, the busses couldn't run and tomorrow I'll be home again which is giving me a chance to feel a little more rested and lot less nervous. Though I will say that the thought of going out in the snow instantly causes my anxiety to appear and I start feeling a little sick on the inside... Friday I have to go to work, Friday is a whole day away, while I have the day at home, I am going to spend the day hoping beyond all hope that the snow clears up so that it's NOT slippery on Friday... 

I don't know if the weather spirits will be able to help but I think that maybe I'll have to find a way to ask those in a higher power... No matter which of the dark gods is there and willing to help, I'll take any help... I'll leave them any kind of gift that they want, I'll sacrifice the Angels so that I can make it into work safely without slipping on Friday and Saturday... I can't not go to work again, I'm letting other people down and I HATE that, and on top of the feelings I am already dealing with, the thought of going out where it's slippery is just the knock my anxiety needs... SO, lets summon the dark gods and light the candles, as a Wax Witch - which happens to be the name of the candles worn on Rudh's shoulders from Static, available until January 18th at The Warehouse - has chained an angel into their magical ring and now we wait...
