The Future Of Self-Preservation!

Do you ever stop and think about the future? I am not the kinda girl that enjoys any form of Science Fiction, be that in movies or books, but the hubby really loves Star Wars... I think back to pictures of history that we've seen where they say in 2025 we'd be driving flying cars, and Back to the Future had so many gadgets that would be handy but are non-existant... I wonder will humans look different, they already warn about changes caused by technological influences like smart phones... But wouldn't it be better to be something more interesting... 

I'd like to think that we mutate into something a little cooler... Adding some Cyborg parts to make sure the human body runs smoothly, but like I've said they talk about Smart Phone hands and App watching neck with a hump since we spend so long looking down at phones and tablets, but I was hopeing maybe for more eyes or something so that I can see better and don't have to wear glasses any more. I know I could wear contacts but I cannot stick my fingers in my eyes... 
As for protection though, I'd stick with the old school methods... Like they say, if it aint broke, don't fix it...

Hands to Assist in the Transplantation!

I've said it more than once, but then times when I'm making the darkest and most twisted of pictures I'm more often than not in the bestest of moods... I'm happy and I'm usually singing along to some cheesy pop song - today it was the turn of Five, who have reformed and I wasn't able to get tickets to see - but for some reason the darkest pictures happen... 
Today is of no exception, I was given a task to assist in the transportation of something gross and sticky... The real me had to take a look away, so I let the Living Dead Doll take over... She's not been out to play for a while, but she's the happiest little soul... 

So today she seemed to come prepared for the task at hand, and she's always a happy girl when it comes to being able to dig up the body parts from the still warm, freshly dead bodies... The Hospital - a backdrop in this case from blaink - is always in need of helping hands to assist with removal of body parts for transplantation and Living Dead Rudh definitely comes prepared with helping Ghostmage Hands - from Aii - and her Corrupted Hands - from Tardfish, available until March 31st at The Men's Department... 
After the removal of the fresh, still beating heart, she slipped it into the black Human Organ Bag - from Krescendo, currently available at BLACK FAIR until March 23rd - and all she had to do now was decide if it was to be delivered to the waiting patient or would it feed her demon friends for lunch...

The Chains of a Demoness

Having to work so much and having so little time off is like a form of torture... Being an adult is a sucky feeling sometimes and I wish I could go back to when I was like 11 or 12 when life seemed simpler... 
Working all the time makes me feel stuck in a rut, like I'm trapped in a cage and have no hope of getting out of it. Sorry if that sounds depressing, and I guess in a way it is, but I needed to vent and isn't that kinda what my rambling space is for... Once again my mood has affected what I'm posting today, and it's definitely been improved by making something pretty... 

Demons were once little angels that have fallen into the darkness, and I'm definitely more of a demon than an angel... I am a good girl, but there are lots of little things that reveal the dark cracks in me... 
I like the dark little demonness inside often feel trapped, chained into the daily drudge of normal life. I'm in a job I love, if there weren't so many crazy people involved, I'm in a happy home where I feel I can be safe and relax, just a shame it's so far away from my family that I miss terribly... Things seem a bit difficult right now, but before long I'll be able to take some time out and spend some time in the UK, recharging my batteries... I need that to break free...

Fun in the Sun Essentials!

I seem to start all of my posts lately in the same way... Today was my day off and I did this or that... Though once again, it's been my day off and I've been having a lovely lazy day minding my own business and doing some things that I needed to get done... 
I wanted to spend some time in the sun, it seems to be avoiding the Netherlands this year, and although I am not a summer girl sometimes we need the sun to get rid of that Winter S.A.D effect... The only problem is, I seem to be terrible at remembering one key thing... Sunscreen... 

I am a natural redhead in RL, not just the bottled fire engine red that Rudh wears, but that means that normally when the sun is able to get to my skin for any length of time I tend to go bright red and then back to white... 
Sunburn used to be a bane of my existence, now days I'm constantly carrying sunscreen with me, but back when I was a teen... I forgot and thought nothing of it... 
Today I've been planning a trip on a sailing boat from Santamaria Pier - a backdrop from Synnergy.Tavis - I'm taking my little French Bulldogs - from Jian - with me and we are heading out on the open water... I've just got a quick stop to make at the "Fun in the Sun Essentials" Machine - a creation by MadPea, available until August 5th at equal10 - so that I can grab myself some new sun block and avoid getting any more sunburn - like the older but still awesome set, available from Izzie's...

Rudhbow Brite!

I am an 80's child, born in 1986 and raised through the 90's I look back on my childhood fondly. I've been thinking about having children of my own lately, and although I love kids I wonder what kind of Mum I'd make. I'm still too much of a kid mentally, I love doing things that are childish and I wonder would I be any good if I had to be the example... It's not something that I need to think about, it won't be happening for a while... 
I'll just use the time to look back on my childhood and one of my favourite characters... Rainbows are EVERYWHERE in SL at the moment, thanks to Pride, but there's always ONE Rainbow that sticks out... 

RAINBOW BRITE was one of my favourite characters, and I LOVED her stories, her companions and her colourful happy nature... 
I will never be able to make a perfect version, but today I pay homage to Rainbow Brite, in my own Rudhbow Brite... Like Rainbow Brite I've some amazing companions, a rainbow Unicorn Balloon - created by Aardvark, available at ACCESS - that she rides through the clouds, whilst her Juicebox companions - created by MishMish and available at Kustom9 - float along with her in their "Up Up & Away" Mini Hot Air Balloons - from Simply Shelby, available until June 22nd at Cosmopolitan...

Escaping Through Fire...

 I've had two days at work this week, and it's been pretty shit. I love my job, but it's terrible when we are quiet at work it seems to make the day stretch out so it feels four times as long.... I'm also in charge at the moment since my boss has gone away for a few days. No-one had better mess things up this week... 
For tonight though I am going to escape, and maybe I'll blow things up and burn them to the ground... Or maybe I'll let Rudh do it, and perhaps in a more drama involved... 

Rudh never does things by halves, she's going to walk away from this and leave the place burning as she goes... The shots from her own gun, and those from her WarDog pets - a SHARD release for Midnight Order -  ricocheting from the metal walls of the station, as the monstrous-looking twisted beings try to stop their escape...

Books and Cats, What more could I want?

This year I've been saying over and over again, that I want to read more. I've been following people I know on Facebook for their recommendations, I'm immersing myself in Booktok - the TikTok of books - and have joined GoodReads to set myself a reading goal and keep track of new releases, recommendations and the books that I HAVE read... I'll keep updating my lists and making sure I know the things I want to read... 

Rudh isn't much of a reader, preferring to spend her time taking pictures and shopping... Though recently she's found herself a collection of Banter Books, with titles like "100 Ways to eat Cock", "The Inconspicuous Guide to Perving Profiles" and "Unyielding Melancholy" - this collection can be grabbed from Aardvark at the current round of The Men's Department until January 31st - all of which will prove to no doubt be interesting reading material... She's saving the book called "101 Ways to Play with your Pussy", unti she's managed to find a way to wrangle the cats into one room in the hopes that they get along...

Hair: [monso] - Mya Hair in Black & Red

The Best Kind Of Advertising!

The first time that I get myself a day off, I find myself getting sick. It always happens that when you take a moment to slow down, your body seems to catch up with a bang. On the same day, my first to rest in a few days I got shark week and a terrible cold, without warning... I've been feeling shit since... 
Though I did find a little strength to get into SL and at least try to make myself feel glamourous. If I can't feel good about myself in RL, due to the fact I have a head full of snot and I'm feeding the sharks, at least Rudh can look good and make me feel better lol... 

I guess you could call it a look of the day, but it's definitely an outfit that I've been wearing for a while now and wanted to find a chance to share because frankly I'm obsessed with it... 
It all started with the release of a new set of Baby Tee's from the amazing collaboration between Neverwish and The Horror - which is available until June 18th at The Warehouse - that comes in 4 different style sets, each with 4 different colours and/or prints... I LOVE all of the different designs, but for some reason the "Professional Goth Girlfriend" spoke most to my former life before I married my hubby... 
All it needed was some amazing things to wear with it and although it could have been dressed up and glam, I guess because I've been feeling so run down that that it's casual, cool, for today, and now all I want to do is sit around and eat Candy - like this bag of candy from Sakura - while my protector watches over me from a safe distance... 

What is she wearing;
Hair: Wasabi - Latte Hair in Offbeat
Skin: amara beauty - Freya in Ivory
Collar: Kibitz - Kyra's Collar in Silver
Necklace: Kibitz - Tia's necklace in Silver
Top: NeverWish x The Horror! - Baby Tee (Available until June 18th at The Warehouse)

Hairy Hare Pirates!

Hair Fair 2022 has started, in fact it's been open for a while now, and there are lots of hairy reasons to pop in for a visit. Hair Fair is a very long standing event in SL now, every year they raise money and awareness for a charity that provides support and happiness for children in need... Wigs for Kids is a charity that creates wigs for children who have lost their hair through illness, providing these kids with a boost of confidence and happiness, something that is very much needed in the world...
This year however, there are also PIRATES... The Hare Fair Hares have become a pirate crew and they are on land in search of hairy treasures... 

Hair Fair this year seems to have been met with mixed reactions from the SL shopping community, but one thing remains the same. There is something for everyone, to meet any budget - be it freebie gifts, exclusive releases from a variety of different designers and even the bandanas, which in years gone by were brilliant for shopping in a laggy, chaotic place. Some of the bigger SL hair designers were not present, but that doesn't matter, there are lots of new designers to find showing off their wares, and I know that I managed to find 4 or 5 styles that I love! 
Whilst there though I also fell in love with the cutest pirate crew, made up exclusively of the Hair Fair Hares, that is until I got myself into the crew, and became the new captain... They loved my hair, which I'd just had done at the Exile booth - who made 25% donation to the cause from any of the purchase sales made, Exile can be found in the Foils Sim of the event.

An Offering from the Tooth Fairy

There are many stories that children are told to inspire their imaginations and the belief in magic... Santa, the Easter Bunny and fairy stories were abundant in my childhood and I still, even now, have a lot of love for them all - even though I know at least two of three were down to my parents - but the tooth fairy was always one that got me frustrated... No matter how many teeth I lost,  I'd never been able to catch a glimpse of that pesky toothfairy... I'd always had a novel idea that I was going to catch her and demand an increase in teeth payments lol... 

Rudh is the cheekiest kinds of toothfairy... She's a little bit dark and depraved, but she's even willing to steal the teeth of the dead. Ripping the teeth from the Zombie Corpses that she discovers just laying around! 
Funny to think thought that this look all started because I bought the most amazing necklace from AsteroidBox at the Backyard Birthday Bash - a celebration for Fifty Linden Friday's Birthday - and it's decorative teeth were the root cause of this prettiness today... 

What is she wearing;
Hair: TRUTH - Trinket in Redhead 
Skin: amara beauty - Freya in Ivory

The 'Boob'Eyes Demon is Watching

 In case you haven't heard, Skin Fair is coming... Like a monster rising from a year long deep sleep, but there are so many pretty things being teased with everywhere we look, and the little monster in me wants to do some more teasing hehe... 
If you know me at all, you will know that I love letting my dark little monster side out to play and she loves to lure people into the dark to play with her... Come on down, let her show you a cave of wonders.. 

I couldn't be more excited about this little Demon look, it's definitely one of my favourites... 
It started with eyes... I made myself laugh super hard while I was playing with this look because I kept calling myself the BoobEyes Demon. As you might guess, it started with these amazing Body eyes for 'The OCULISK'- a Skin Fair release from Phobia - which come with a set of very gorgeous serpent like eyes. One of the coolest parts of this set, is that the eyes are BOM, so they can be worn with ANY BOM eyes... Rather than use the serpent eyes - I attached pictures to show the eye colours and what they look like in the store ads to the bottom of this post - because I wanted something more demonic - like the eyes I wore from Suicidal Unborn - and I squealed like a very happy girl when I saw the eyes all over me LOL... 
Then if that wasn't good enough, I got a super exciting surprise from Afterparty... I'd won a set of their amazing Neon Demon Wings - that are available now at Cyber Fair - that just like all their Neon creations can be a bucketload of different colours, and flicker and flash, and even have patterns... I don't know this brand that well but I LOVE what I see so far, and cant wait to get better aquainted with it... So that's two awesome pretties in one pretty little demon...
