Bloomin' Lubberly Bubbley!

I had to go into work today, it was a MUCH shorter day than normal but still it was supposed to be my day off and I was so ready to have a lazy day off... YET the world doesn't want me to relax and even though the weather today was atrocious I got ready and went into work like a good girl...

What I'd really wanted to do was stay home, relax, read my book and maybe even take a long hot shower, since I don't have a bath at home and I'm gonna admit that I'm sad about that... 
I miss being able to have a bath, I miss sitting in the hot bubbly water feeling like I'm a lobster boiling in a cooking pot... I used to hat baths, and when I was a teenager I'd always shower before I even thought about sitting in a bath because who wanted to sit in their dirty soup right? 
Now I'm craving having a bath...

Sneaky Fairy GodPossums!

I'm super tired after a long day at work today and I cannot wait until it's time for bed... I'm home now though and tomorrow I'll be having a lazy at home day... Right now though I NEED to get my brain relaxing... I'm going to put on  some old children's cartoons or something and let the colours drag me away to a happy, restful place... 

For some reason my mind started getting all excited thinking about the original, and therefore best, version of the My Little Ponies, which in turn led to my brain getting Rudh all rainbowed up and sparkling for a trip to a My Little Pony-esque world... 
A world inhabited by the Poodle Ponies - from Tardfish at the Gacha Garden until September 30th - and the MishMish Fairies, who live at the Dollhouse Castle - which is a backdrop from FOXCITY - peacefuly enjoying the happiness even though they have the occasional visit from the sneaky Fairy Godpossums - an ACCESS release from Aardvark - to steal their candies and flower petals...

Magical Falling Leaves

It has really felt like an Autumn day today... I love love love that crisp cold feeling in the air of the early morning, then the sun was shining through my bedroom window as I lounged after my shower and it was heavenly, and the colours are changing and it's sweater weather and the dark coming earlier means we can have candles and coziness and delicious dinners that we don't eat in Summer because it's too hot... The list could go on and I am happy it's time of the year that makes me feel best... The magic is alive, while the word is changing... 

The magic of the Autumn is brilliant, it's beautiful in Springtime when things are coming to life but in Autumn when things are preparing for their Winter sleep and the colours paint the trees to look like fire and of course, the magical fae that are in charge of the changes are both mystical and dance with the falling leaves in the light of the setting sun... 
This fa is very shy though, you'll never see her real eyes... She looks at the world through her mask, the Crown of Nocturna - which in this case is a white version that I have cheekily re-coloured for blogging purposes and the colours available are gorgeous but weren't right for what I needed, the mask is from BeSpoke and it's TOTALLY GORGEOUS - and it lets her magic paint the worlds in shades of orange...

Backyard Camping Treats!

Since I am stuck at home today, and even though it's my normal day off and normally I wouldn't be complaining about being at home, I had a really strong desire to be getting outside, and there was no way I wanted to go round people so into the back garden I was going... 
It was a warmer day than expected, so I decided to make the most of it and make it one last fun day of Summer... 

Some of those summer days when I was a kid would be spent camping in the backyard, at least we'd lay there and just magically wake up in our beds in the morning as I believe Dad had carried us up to bed when it got late and we were asleep... 
One thing we never did though was make Smores - or is it S'mores, I don't know how it is written really - it's one of those American traditions that were never really a thing when I was a kid in the UK... It's something I've ALWAYS really wanted to try and do, but I've never really managed to try it properly... So while I'm lazing in my pop-up tent to read and watch my Cozy Campfire - from Krescendo - I pulled out the Junk Food Smores kits and hand to give it a go..

Why do I always get sick?!

Someone tell me why?! I have a question that I NEED an answer to... Someone tell me why, whenever the season changes do I seemingly instantly catch a cold and feel like shit?! 
It's like as soon as the season decides it's time to change whether it's to Spring or Autumn, and other's start to get coughs and sneezes, I am automatically primed to get sick... It didn't take long but yep... I've got the lurgy... 

I came home early on Saturday. I tried hard but I hadn't actually been able to work a full shift... 
I spent MOST of today, curled up in my bed snoozing and I was trying to read in the time that I wasn't asleep. I wanted to do some SL things but it didn't take long before I found myself being escorted back to bed with a bowl of chicken soup, a cup of tea, my squishy plushie Louie Cat - from Snuggle&Co -  and my choice of a favourite movie to relax... He wouldn't let me Lord of the Rings, so can you tell what I forced him to watch?! LOL... Do you have a favourite go to movie when you want something comforting? Oh and before you answer that, can you pass me some more paracetamol?!

The Pixel Fae and Her Arcade Aura

A magical day off that I spent at home in my jammies doing a few odd chores and reading the rest of the time... When I was cleaning the music was loud, cheesy, pop with many, many cheesy karaoke moments, using whatever I had to hand... Just a note to those who do this too, TOILET BRUSHES ARE NOT EVER TO BE USED AS MICROPHONES... Anything else is fair game, and can make you feel like a magical star... 

There is a loud, rumbling music that can be heard across certain regions of Second Life today as the adorable band that is Arcade Aura - which coincidentally is the name of the collection from everfaery for the newly opened round of Cyber Fair that includes the Wings and Left stocking shown in my outfit - in their matching stage outfits are warming up... Lots of loud cheesy pop music, glittering lights with stars and sparkles, and a lead guitarist that would make things a lot easier to rehearse if she remembered to plug the guitar in LOL...

Come On, Play With Fire...

I am going to rant tonight about pet peeves because today people were getting on my nerves... I KNOW everyone has pet peeves, things that irritate them that other people do and I know that I may even be someone who irritates others around me but while working I've definitely developed a longer list of things that people that do that irritate the heck outta me... So let's discuss things shall we?! 

I've said it regularly that I work in retail tourism, but that would be in a cheese shop for those of you that are interested, and working in a setting like that you see so many things on a daily basis that make me wanna slap someone...
Firstly, one of the things is the way people act around free samples... Putting dirty hands into bowls of cheese after pushing the tongs used for picking them up out of the way, is just RUDE... Barging people out of the way just to get at the free samples, is just RUDE... Acting like free samples is anal you can eat buffet, is just RUDE... Though I think for me, one of the worst that I have to just shake my head and walk away from HAS to be the way people chew... Slapping their lips when they chew UGHHHH...
Don't even get me started on people that chew gum - which I am totally not against - and then rather thanputting the gum into the bin, they stick it under the table top or the nearest shelf... That's not just rude, that's a DICK MOVE!!!! If I see anyone doing that, they are playing with fire...
