A Pirate's Life For Me!

Today is the last day of September, and that means a few things... Tomorrow someone needs to wake the lead singer of Green Day. Tomorrow is the start of Spooky Season... That means there could be a lot more dressing up, a lot more blood and scares, a lot more dark and evilness to come... 
Making a start of that today... Today we're heading out on a little adventure, we're going for a sale on the High Seas. We're going to search for the mythical Tortuga and see if there is a chance to meet the great Davy Jones and his voodoo bride... 

I used to dream about being a pirate and going on adventures when I was a kid, I wasn't interested in the fighting and the violence but I was excited to sing sea shanties and dream about a life sailing the seas watching the dolphins swim past. Perhaps it had something to do with my excitement about mermaids... Then I saw Jack Sparrow for the first time and thought "I WANT ONE"... 
Now I'm setting off on my own adventure... Accompanied by my pet Macaw - from SEmotion Libellune - that I've given the name Polly, yes I know it's a very common pirate parrot name, and the Shrunken Head of my stupid Ex - which is actually an awesome new release from Boutique #187 at the Saturday Sale Party Extravaganza until October 20th... 
I'm dressed as an Alluring Pirate captain - thanks to an outfit from MDN at the round of Engine Room - and I'm ready, I'm off to sail the Sands of Time - a backdrop from Synnergy.Tavis - it's now the Pirate's Life for Me!

Mummy's Lil' Trick or Treaters

We're getting closer and closer to the day that the kids are allowed to wander the streets begging for candy. It's not something that we really do here in the Netherlands, although Halloween is slowly becoming more and more popular, but I can't help but get into the Halloween spirit and feel lucky that I'm able to do more Halloweenie stuff in SL... 
Though for my 31 days of Halloween look today I've been lumbered with a rather arduous task of taking the streets kids out Trick or Treating... I'm a Mummy that's been made to be a mummy to all of the little monsters... 

I'm going to wander along the Trick-n-Treat Lane - a backdrop from Synnergy, that's now become Synnergy.Tavis - with an army of monstrous kids of different ages and sizes, wearing all manner of different costumes; some scary others not, and we are going to have a great time collecting candy... Even the family pets got a chance to come out for a little Trick or Treating... As their "Mummy" minder though I've laid down the rule that I get at least one treat from each of the kids tonight... I wonder what goodies I'll be able to feed my Cauldron Creature - from Evil Baby - when I steal from their Pumpkin Pails - from Junk Food.

A Train to Run Away on!

I have a really big desire and muchly desperate need to go home to the UK... I want to be with my mum for a while, I want to get a tour of my dad's garden like he does everytime I visit and I want to finally go to see the house that my little sister has moved to and has started to live in like a grown up. There has been so much chaos in my RL lately that I feel the strongest need to run away, and although that cannot be happening for a while just yet, I can't help but let myself dream about it... I'd love to jump on a train in Amsterdam Central and get to London asap... 

After a long day at work, I'd like to board the Night Train - a backdrop from Synnergy.Tavis - after having lugged my luggage into work and back to the station. I found a quiet compartment and curled up for the long trip with a good book on my lap and some of the very naughty Speedy's Fast Food Junk Food that you can get at the station, these slushies are totally delicious and I couldn't pick one flavour so I got them all... It's going to be a long trip like I said... Then whilst I was sitting there, a cute little Terrier Puppy - from SEmotion Libellune - appeared in my compartment, he seemed to want to share my dinner and he seemed very pleased when I slipped him a hotdog! It was nice to have a companion to talk to!

Poppy Picking with the Funny Bees

I went exploring today, there have been changes to so many of the places I loved, and new places have popped up so there are lots of brilliant places to discover. One of my favourite places went quiet for a long time but they've brought it back and had it rennovated and it's prettier than ever. 
The place I'm talking about is Lost Unicorn, it's the prefect place where all of the fairies like to congregate. You can walk through the forest, under the trees and into the light and you never know which of the fae folk you'll bump into... 

Today in the forest, you may bump into the prettiest of green fae folk that has been out to collect herself a bunch of July Poppies - from LODE - she's also laced them through her hair. You know how it is, when you're out picking flowers, you can't help prettying your outfit up - the hair and it's flower accessory is available from Doe at Summerfest until July 10th - and it seemed to catch attention of at least one new friend. This particular area of the forest is home to the Funny Bees - from SEmotion Libellune - who are so cute and fluffy, and cannot resist the smell of pretty poppies... 

What is she wearing;
Hair & Flowers: Doe - Poppyseed (Available until July 10th at Summerfest)

There's Something Strange...

 While I'm stuck at home in bed, I feel like I'm going to be catching up on things like movie marathons and reading that I'd planned, or had merely thought about for some time... There are many things I want to get into - starting with a trip or two through Middle Earth, a wander through Narnia and maybe even a flights to Genovia - but I won't be going alone and so that HellBone feels important, I will be letting him pick some of our marathons... Today, I guess my blog reflects his choice... We're going Ghost hunting, or Busting if you will... 

There's something strange today, in this quiet Neighborhood - which just happens to have been a weekend sale backdrop release from Synnergy - and someone made a call, to Ghost Busters! Unfortunately the original teams, both old and new - as well as the girlie busters - were a little tied up in something bigger, and so the only one available to come hunt the problem was the new office intern... ME!!! I wasn't alone, that weird Slime Guy - a past gacha from SEmotion Libellune - was with me... 
Now all I needed was the car, and the only car left in the garage was the one that hadn't been out in the past 30 odd years or so it seemed, what a rust bucket...

Sunday Night = Bath Night!

Sunday Nights were always traditionally a Bath Night in my family home when I was a kid... Not that I didn't bath during the rest of the week but mum ALWAYS made a point of we have to bath on Sunday so we were clean for school the next day... It's been a tradition I've stuck to even now that I'm a grown-up and living on my own... 
HellBone and I just had a gorgeous new bathroom installed... It's pretty in daylight but in the dark... Well... It shines... 

Mostly everything in our new bathroom - and of course the backdrop skybox I used is not really my bathroom it's a gorgeous Moon Glow Skybox from Neverwish - apart from the odd little decoration is from the Krescendo Witchy Washy Gacha Collection... That soft neon, those stars that are projected onto the dark surfaces and all the cute little decorations!! My Chubby Meow seemed to like his new resting spot - which was from BackBone - and now all that's left to do is sink into the bubbles and relax before work next week!!

What is in the picture;

Happy Thanksgiving!

 HAPPY THANKSGIVING to all my American Friends and Family. 
It's not something that I celebrate since I'm a non-American myself, but this time of year there are so many people making huge feasts and spending time with family that I decided to take that opportunity and force HellBone to have a family meal with me... 

I put some delicious roasted veggies - from vespertine kitchen - and some stuffing and mash with a little bit of that delicious Dust Bunny gravy. I turned around for a moment to get the Turkey out of the oven, and as I turned back to put it on the table I noticed that the little shit was sharing mashed potatoes with our chunky butt, Scruffy Shepherd... 
I LOVE this set up, but I have to say that the poses are something I cannot take credit for... They actually come as a larger group pose that can be used as a single pose - with props - or as a whole for a fun family group pose... It's a pose called "Surviving the Holidays" from -Extra-, and it's perfect, not only for Thanksgiving but Christmas too, since it looks like the kinda family Christmases I'm used to in RL... Don't believe me, look at the pose ad for the whole group set and then try to convince me otherwise... 

Anyway, no matter what you're doing today, have a lovely Thursday and to the Americans out there... Happy Thanksgiving!

YAY I LOVE this time of year for dress up, and watching scary movies!!! Though one of my favourite spooky movies isn't really that scary... I'm talking about the classic that is GHOSTBUSTERS!!!
While I was walking through checking the rooms of the Gators Maze, something amazing happened... SLIMER WAS THERE!!!

I had a fangirl moment and got all excited, and then I got VERY hungry because the little bugger was eating a cheese burger and not sharing.... My little Slimer is actually a new release from SEmotion Libellune at Anthem in a gacha... Once I had slimer, that was it... I needed a Ghostbuster Uniform, and some of the tools of the trade...
