Last night a massive storm swept over Holland and so today the world is wet but far too humid to do anything that involves too much in the form of movement...
So like me Rudh has just taken a shower and dropped down onto the couch with HellBone to let him play video games whilst she tries and fails to read a book LOL... He's far too into shouting at the games for my liking, I don't know why he needs to tell all the other characters off when clearly he's the one that has trouble aiming at things LOL... I didn't say that, don't tell him I said that LOL... BUT it does mean that for once, he was sat still long enough for me to shoot him!!
One of the newest poses from Come Soon - yes I am a blogger for their brand but even then I have to admit I am addicted because you get such an easy picture taking experience as the props are already there for you LOL - which you can get your hands on at the latest round of No.21, is the His House Collection. This pose is set number 1 and it really sums up the theme of things in our house when HellBone and I are off-line. I will include the original store ad for the pose at the end of this ramble, but this is seeing things from the other side. The TV is set to play something like Call of Duty - though you may want to correct me if I'm wrong, and HellBone convinced me that I had to change what was on the screen - hence why I have edited my photo for a screen shot of Payday: The Heist - his personal addiction!
Still sometimes it's great to have a lazy day in the middle of the week right?!

Waking up after having weird dreams has left me feeling a bit strange this morning... I don't know exactly what the dreams were about but I can remember a feeling of HUH? and as I wake up I am still feeling that same weird mix of emotions... I feel so weird in fact that I'm kinda at a loss for words, I have nothing of any value to say this morning and so when choosing something from my collection to blog, the best idea was something a little crazy...
Hence the Wannabe Mermaid look... Someone told Rudh if she eats enough Mermaids, then she may become one, it's the sort of thing my mum used to tell me when I was a kid wanting a lot of something to eat, but anyway, that explains why she's bobbing around in the middle of the ocean - in a Signature Pose Floatie that you can grab at GEN:Neutral - chomping on a little mermaid and looking a little bit like she has an opalescent sheen to her skin.
Just for those of you that are interested, no mermaids were harmed in the making of this photograph... This mouthie prop is a very old school gacha item from Evie's Closet - I'm not sure it's still even available - and the sheen to her skin is a new release from The White Crow at the latest round of the Kawaii Project.
Perhaps sharing a picture of Rudh like this was not my best idea this morning, I still feel like I'm in that weird dream!! I must find more caffeine!! Wakey Wakey Rise and Shine!!!

I am so tired... Everyday I seem to be saying something like this recently but right now I'm so tired that my tired is tired, and I'm sure that I've said that before too... Last time I was this tired I started doing stupid things, like getting on the wrong bus to go home, but I only need to get through today and then tomorrow I will be able to sleep a little more as I work at home!
Right now though I feel like I am in need of a holiday - my last trip to the UK was so busy that I didn't really get time to relax! Somewhere exotic perhaps? Somewhere relaxing and peaceful definitely! Maybe a hidden oasis?!?!
Sounds gorgeous doesn't it?! Somewhere just like the one that Rudh spent time at recently would be PERFECT!
Although as much as it pains me to admit it, I have to be honest here and say Rudh would make it look better... Putting the RL me in a photo like this wouldn't look nearly so glamourous, in fact there wouldn't be any chance you'd see me in a bikini... Not even one as gorgeous as the Birdy Boho Bikini, in a pretty Aqua colour that Rudh has on. While on the subject of Birdy, I should perhaps make a mention here that the cute Elephant and Tiger Pets with Rudh are in fact Birdy Boho Gacha releases too, which you can still get your hands on until June 30th at the current round of The Arcade...
There is just one little piece of Rudh's heaven missing and that would be some viking-esque looking guy appearing to bring her drinks and apply sun screen!! Let's make this perfect... Any viking-esque men around?

Hair: Truth - Kora in Reds

Monday Morning, June 20th, and it's raining! It's a true Summers Day here in this part of Europe... One of the funniest realisations came to me this morning... When I initially moved to Holland, all of the Dutch people would tell me that the weather here was better than it is in the UK... NEWS FLASH TO THE DUTCHIES OUT THERE - the weather here is no different to the weather in the UK, it's windier, true, but it rains just as much!!
Still as it's Monday, it's time for me to pull up my big girl panties and swing into fighter mode... I have to work with someone I'm sure you've heard me complain about before, and right now I need to be ready... Perhaps channelling Rudh's latest Army style will give me the power to fight and ignore the irritations in the office?!
This fighter in the Mickey Mouse Army, just happens to be Rudh! She's enjoying a moment's peace - and some WHOLE WHEAT - while she prepares to face any drama that may come her way, and unfortunately knowing SL as well as I do, that won't be too far away.
Her military uniform is made up of the awesome katat0nik "Button Up Romper", which is available this month for Collabor88, and the surprisingly great with the romper "Adrianna Boots" from Pure Poison! Oh and of course not forgetting her whole stack of accessories too...
I'm hoping she's ready for war... I feel it's coming!!!

I love surprises... The good kind anyway, and when the good kind come your way, things can be really lovely!
Today, even though the weather is a little bit on the yucky side, there have been some fairly nice surprises... Meeting people I'd heard a lot about but never truly putting the names to the faces of. Buying a lovely warm handmade blanket from a long time RL friend as she tried to raise some money for charity. Eating the tastiest Mexican food that I've had in a long time from a roadside stand who prepared things fresh in front of me... Today has been a good day...
Surprises can be the smallest of things in the most unexpected of places and each one can lead to a whole lot of new experiences...
It doesn't have to be messages in bottles - like the one from the Day at the Beach Collection created by [ keke ] - or forgotten relics of long since passed... Even finding strange and mysterious relics of other worlds and cultures - such as the Take Cover helmet which is a [nefarious.inventions] if I ever saw one - can lead a person onto many adventures of their own, no matter how big or small they might be. It's the memories that you make which make life a little more interesting. I know that I made Hell happy just by turning up today, and that for me is what counts!
What is in the Picture;
Helmet: [nefarious.inventions] - Take Cover in Gunmetal (Available until June 30th at We <3 RP)
Bottle: [ keke ] - A Day at the Beach Gacha Items in Message in a Bottle (Available until June 30th at The Arcade)
Bridge: Studio Skye - Skye Wooden Bridge Old Beach
A couple of weeks ago now, I said that I would be testing myself a little more... Trying to step out of my biker rock chick living dead girl comfort zone and into some things that were not truly Rudhish in style... One of those happened a few days later in the form of a birthday party held for one of our Gator Boys! We all had to get into a little Yee-Haw and slip into something Country Western... MY GOSH was it harder than I expected... Even with Sussie and Mongo as my shopping guides I had trouble!
I did however find something, I wasn't entirely happy with it but it worked... That was until I went to the latest round of The Chapter Four this month! Luas had released what I felt was the PERFECT Rudhish country girl dress... I asked for clarification - and even though Mongo felt it didn't show enough of my curves - everyone agreed that it worked! It was almost like Luas was in my head and designed the perfect dress for what I wanted!
I teamed it with a pair of cute Ankle Booties and this awesome Hat and Hair combo from Truth, and apparently I was good to go!
I'm enjoying pushing my boundaries a little, who knows what will come next... Any Suggestions?
What is she wearing;
Hat & Hair: Truth - Jill in Reds
Skin: Glam Affair - Seya in Europa 2

I'm feeling the homesick feeling again... It happens every so often and right now it's here and here to stay. Possibly because I've been sick lately, and maybe added to that the fact that my little sister's birthday is coming up, but right now Rudh is incredibly home sick... Finding a man and getting married to someone in a different place through SL may sound like a fairytale, but it does come with it's not so good side too!! Not that I'd change the adventure of it, but I wish we lived closer to home...
I'm going to have to suck it up and call home... I do regularly call the UK, but when I feel this home sick it has a dual effect of making the feeling of missing home worse while actually helping too... Sounds bonkers I know but I guess just hearing the family helps somewhat!?!
Of course when Rudh calls home she does it in a totally different way... It's hard for the living dead Doll in me to call to my "other" family - not the MC they are always around but the other Dead side of the family LOL...
Rudh decided to call home and with the help of one of the awesome already laid out WHOLE WHEAT locations it was easier than she had imagined... Like having a cell phone for the undead... Calls are cheap too... One human heart and some time spent at the Ouiji Board will do!
It's never easy calling the undead, the line connection is always so shaky, and unlike a phone they are always able to cast an evil eye over the caller - tormenting her so that even her piercing scars bleed - but at least it gives her some reassurance just like calling my RL parents gives me.
On the subject of piercing scars, and just to wrap up the ramble for today, I have added a close-up look at them in the photo below... These are the SongBird Puncture Piercings available until June 31st as a Hunt Prize for the Body Art Hunt II - so FREEBIES!!!! Love that term!
Still now it's time to go make a simpler call... Time to dial home to Mum!
