All Of The Zodiac Signs...

Horrible perk about working the with public number... Ummmm I don't know, 175?? The ability to catch each and every cold that comes in the front door of the shop, bonus points that I'm working in tourism so therefore have access to more and more germs than those people who have a job in an office perhaps! 
That perk leads to me potentially having overdosed myself on paracetamol, so my brina goes into a spin and the resulting picture that comes out of Second Life is... Random... 

I often thought to myself, I've done all different kinds of fae, but I wonder what others are out there in the dark... Today when I stumbled into Fairy Land - which is the backdrop from The Bearded Guy by the way - it may have been the effects of the paracetamol, or the fact that last night was a full moon, but I bumped into a Fae that was the walking, breathing, living definition of all of the Zodiac in a modern, crazy wrapper... LOL... 
She brought Water as Aquarius and Crabby Beer as Cancer. Bedecked with bones of the Fish as Pisces, and a necklace featuring a Scorpion as Scorpio. A Goat Skull on her finger for Capricorn, Glasses that were the Scales of Libra and Twin, Gemini, Halos on her horns of Aries and Taurus. Whilst even her maiden Virgo Hair, and Leo Jacket (that's the name of the jacket I was stuck and being creative LOL) couldn't hide the visit she'd had from the Sagittarian Archers Arrows... All the while the stars on her dress and wings represented the heavenly body she was... 
I couldn't help but smile at the randomness... I love the things the mind can conjure up!

In Need of Magic Spells!

Life really needs a little magic, getting news and dealing with all of the news that I've had over the last few months since the start of 2026, there's issues in the world, there's issues in MY world and I'm barely holding it together... I NEED a little magic... I don't want it, I NEED it and we all know there is a massive difference... I'm going to take matters into my own hands, and try to conjure something up... 

At this point I wish I could channel some of my inner Ursula, ya know the one that sings "Well I fortunately know a little magic, it's a talent that I always have possessed"... If you don't know, it's time to go watch a Disney film about a Little Mermaid... 
I know that my outfit is a little Witchy today, it's the fault of the dress and the amazing Vampyre Gloves - from Psycho Barbie - but when the magic was flowing from my fingers and Aetherlune reaction happened - the Aetherlune Jewels were released at the Magic Fair by Static and although the event has closed, they should be available at the mainstore - and the magic of the Crystal Cauldron started to glow...

Frozen treats for the Snowmen

There have been so many crazy things going on weather-wise lately, I mean at the beginning of January things got very, very cold and icy here in the Netherlands, and now it seems like it's the turn of large parts of North America. I have a lot of theories on things like the weather, and some of them are more set in logical thinking than others but my current one involves one of the biggest companies in the word and their new zone in a certain European theme park LOL... 
The cold weather pictures online from across the pond have definitely made me feel a little like playing in the snow though, and as much as I hated it while it was here, it's fine to enjoy when I don't have to live with it hehe... 

If you haven't heard, the European Disneyland also known as Dineyland Paris, is making announcing every where about the fact that before long they will be opening a new park zone dedicated to all things Elsa, Olaf and Anna, yes Arendelle is coming to Disneyland Paris... My theory is that since they are one of the richest companies in the world they paid some evil genius lots of money to get everyone into the Frozen spirit and took it literally LOL... Told you it was silly... 
Hence why today, I decided to throw on an Elsa-esque outfit and host a little tea party for the Friendly Snowmen - from MishMish - although there is no tea being served to avoid anyone melting. Instead of tea, we have lots of delicious Ice Creams and Sundaes.

A Puppy Awakening!

I have to admit that even though today has been the first weekend off I have hd in a few weeks and that I had SUCH HUGE plans to get things done, I find myself feeling sluggish. I'm being slow in everything as I've got no desire to do anything that involves moving... I want to read, I want to laze around, I want to sit back and chill but I have so much to do... Someone wake me up, make me some coffee or something?!

I can't pick up my phone today, without being lost to doom scrolling. I can't sit on the sofa without staring off into space. I can't do anything without letting my mind wander to other things and distract me from the main thing I should be focusing on... 
I sat Rudh down to do her make-up, her Ghoufriend Make-Up - from HAUNT available until August 20th at Midnight Order - if you will, and it was all going well, until she suddenly woke up at the arrival of the cute-looking but somewhat evilly divalicious Pawradise Pups - from Aardvark, and yes they are cute I'm just being silly calling them evil, at Collabor88 until September 7th - arrival... Their arrival means that the Demons are Coming... I better hurry up and get ready...

Gittering at the Roller Disco

I need some happy, I want to let my hair down and dance, and although all I'm listening to at the moment seems to be Black Sabbath, I feel like it brings me to tears every now and again... 
I might have to switch it up and listen to something a bit more cheesy pop as I head into my last day of work... Tomorrow I have one more work shift then I am on holiday for a couple of weeks YAY... 

I feel like I want to go back into my past and one of those crazy fun Saturday nights that we used to go to at the youth rollerskating rink... It was nothing special as they just turned a sports hall into the rink by adding a DJ booth at one end and spent a few hours playing cheesy pop music... 
I feel like that's what I need right now, it's definitely feeling like that wil help me get through the next few days before I go home...

Preserving the Beauty

I always seem to start my blog posts complaining about working and being tired... I'm sorry about that but it's my permanent state of being at the moment... Today was one of those weird ass days when I've not had to work because I'm shift swapping so my boss can be off for mother's day tomorrow... 
I've had time on my hands, I've been trying to relax and find myself a with some time on my hands to do something new... 

I've never been into the thought of stuffed animals, unless they are the plushie kind, or taxidermy of any kind be it big game or the tiniest little instects. I LOVE seeing them in the wild, I LOVE the butterfly house at the zoo and I'm not averse to eating the animals but they should be treated with respect and raised fairly... It seems like the kind of decor that Rudh might go for in SL though, it would be perfect decor for her little cottage core life whie the butterflies flit in and out of the windows on the breeze...

Fairy Teas Need Human Magic!

Halloween has been and gone now, and that means, as the great Queen of Christmas Mariah Carey says "It's TIMEEEEEEEEEEE!" Christmas is almost here and we are on a slippery slope to the visit from the big man in red... 
It is time though to calm things down and watch the world go by a little, time to enjoy the Autumn colours and the chill in the air. The best way to do that... Time to settle down with a cuppa tea, as the happy little fae in me takes a break from painting the nature in red and gold...

The fae folk have a magical crystal table set up in the Enchanted Hall, with the soul purpose of it being for making tea and eating yummy things that magically appear... Cakes of all kinds, and croissant sandwiches sit on the mushroom clove crockery, while the tea cups in the set sit waiting to be filled with delicious hot tea or coffee... Most of the things in the Fae kitchen are naturally sourced, but if you look closely you will see that a trip was made to the human world in search of one of the most important things in the world... COFFEE CREAMER - from Junk Food - because no matter what kind of magic the fae have, there will ALWAYS be better coffee creamers in the human world hehe...

Magically Baking

Pride is a month of parties, Pride is a month of celebration for those that are different, a rememberence of a fight for equality that still has people hiding away, acting like something they are not and not living the life they want to enjoy. If anyone is needing someone now or in the future, sometimes a stranger can provide the best support, and I want people to know I'm here to be that person... 
On a happy note though, since Pride is about celebration I find myself wondering about cake... Rainbow cake for a rainbow party... 

Cupcakes are delicious... Covered in Icing and PERFECT for parties that one of the most special of rainbow fairies is busy in the fairy kitchen whipping up all kinds of rainbow cakes... Rainbow Cupcakes - from Junk Food - and towering tiered rainbow cakes...

Drinking Induced Nightmares...

Yesterday was a TOTAL nightmare and today I've been a little nervous, feeling shocking due to the events of yesterday. It caused me to miss my Monsterous month target but I'm hoping that I can just carry on as much as possible. I think though, today I need a very STIFF drink, there's no better place to get myself a halloween drink, than at the nearest Halloween party... 

I don't know what I want to drink, I really need something stronger and I feel like making myself a fancy cocktail... I am having pizza for dinner, nothing as fancy as you might get at the Halloween Party - like the ones I'd laid out from vespertine - and the TWO different flavours of fancy Ice Cream for dessert, in this case I'm going for something Humane and Eyeballs - thanks to Clover and Aardvark in that order... But Now it's time to start mixing up the strongest of drinks... I'm going to mix some Crabby Apple Beer and some Mutant Energy Drinks - both of which are available from Junk Food at the mainstore - I made myself into a Shamless Martini - an accessory by Figure 8... I MAY have drunk a few of those too many, it didnt take long until the chocolates that I'd been holding onto for later became Horror Chocolates - from Aardvark - floating around my head, gnashing it's teeth at me menacingly...

Mushrooms can make you Silly!

I get super excited when I get to slip off into a fantasy world, I LOVE being a fairy and I love letting my mind wonder. I do feel like if I was a fantasy character, as much as I wish I was able to be a mermaid I think by this point the fairy is much more likely... I LOVE being a fairy, I love the fact they can have so many different personas and I LOVE exploring them all... 
Today I ampining for Autumn, I hate that Summer comes in the middle and I know that maybe I'm in a minority but me and the heat doesn't mix... I love the crisp feeling that comes with Autumn, and the colours that dust the nature... It's also the time of year when you get to meet some of the cutest fairies... It's a season when Mushroom Picking is a hobbie for some, and the fairies like to get in on that action too... 

So when you're out in the woods on a mushroom hunt, make sure you keep your eyes open because flitting around the mushrooms you may find your very own Mushroom Fae... 
She's a sporelicious fae, the fairy of the Woodland Spores and like the rest of her kin has adopted the persona of the Portabella fairy all because she loves the polkadots... 
She's dancing around the forest glad, collecting mushrooms, and getting the giggles as her little Badger buddy decided that he had to dress up to match me...

Not the Robo Woofers

My last few pictures have been full of sunshine and prettiness, but today I'm going to have a change of tact, I'm going to do something a little darker, a little more sci-fi and a little more kick ass... I feel feisty, I NEED to do something a little more dangerous looking... I cannot wait to relax this weekend, and a chance to celebrate something special this weekend... First and foremost though I have to kick ass and clean house...

Escaping through the ship into a Cyber tunnel - a backdrop from Paparazzi for those who are interested - Rudh was on the run. Dodging into the darker places to avoid the scanning robotic eyes of the Robo Woofer - an older but still awesome release from Hilted - guard dogs that were hot on her trail. That was the problem with these kind of missions, the ones that had robotic guards always seemed to be a little trickier... 
She'd thought that this time she'd disguised herself pretty well, matching the neon cyber markings of the people that inhabited this little corner of the future, but the glow was spreading to her Imp Parts - a collection from STOIC - making them stand out way more than she'd hoped! Even her outfit was meant to help her blend in - a cute Sytau set from Normandy that is currently available at Whore Couture until March 31st, worn with the cutest of Normandy Naxell Bras (which does actually come with panties that I've not worn here) just to hide those cute little nip-nips - and ALL she really had to do was get in, get the secret codes and get the heck out. How was she to know that her tail would flick and trigger the alarm to sound?! Time to grab for her guns and make for the closest NF111 bike she could find - which just happens to be a pose and prop set from Fashiowl at Cyber Fair until march 23rd!

Magically Summoning A Valentine

It's Valentines Weekend, and everywhere I look it seems like there are so many couples being cute and adorably sweet, but knowing my Hubby I'm going to be doing things all by myself on Tuesday and over the rest of the Valentines weekend. I got home from work, after a stupidly long and mental work day today, and I decided to take matters into my own hands. I wanted to find myself someone who'd appreciate me, I needed to find myself a special valentine that HellBone couldn't object to... It was time to head to the store to collect a few things and work a little magic... 

There are so many good things at the store these days to prepare for  magic spell on Valentines... I had a look at the spell that I've found in one of those cheesy "Ravishing" Romance Novels - from Random.Matter at Cupid Inc - which said I needed some Valentines Candy both chocolate and love heart styles, some beautifully scented flowers and since it's something that I enjoy a variety of different Valentines coffees, since they are definitely a way to a girls heart... Then place "The Perfect Boyfriend" made from chocolate - and released by Junk Food at Cupid Inc - into a pentacle of  Love Hearts and start chanting... If the magic works, your chocolate man will become your perfect Valentine...

Punishing the Neon Angel

It's the Friday Night before Valentines and that means that it's probably considered to be Valentines Weekend. I'm sure there are a lot of people around that are doing romantic things with their loved ones, dates will be had and gifts may be given, but in a relationship like the one I have with HellBone we're the least couply of couples. Love in our house is one of a close friendship as much as a married couple... Rudh on the other hand needs a little more than that, when the bad girl in her wants to get out, there has to be a way to keep her under control... 

Even the angels need punishment sometimes when they act out, and since there are so many different types of angels, those that are in charge of the punishments are the ones that have to be able to fit their punishment to the angel in question. A Neon Angel like the cute little Rudh in her Fae Bodysuit of neon colours - a bodysuit from Psycho Barbie - and is decorated in the neon lights of her rank. 
When it's time for her punishment, she's thrown onto the nearest Padded Pallet - available from Krescendo at FaMESHed X from today until March 10th - head down, ass up until the punisher gets up from his comfortably relaxing Bright Tantra Seat - from Violetility, also at FaMESHed X - and paddle in hand he leaves his mark...

Head in the Clouds

Having one of those days where all I want to do is get myself into a pair of comfortable pyjamas, and let my mind wander off into the most fantastical of places. I had my first day back at work after a holiday and it was terribly dull... It's that period just after Christmas when the city seems to be in sleep mode. I wish that I could be in sleep mode too... I would be up in the clouds and dreaming of the stars...  

There's so much magic in the stars, the clouds and the moonlight, and even though there are things in space that may or may not exist, depending on who you talk to, I am still drawn to the stars, drawn to their glittering prettiness... 
I had the most amazing experience of star gazing when I visited my little sister in RL, she lives in a very rural cottage in the middle of nowhere, and the stars there seem more amazing than I have ever seen before. When it's clear you even see the galaxies... It brought a tear to my eye... 
For now though I'm going to laze back and let my mind drift off into the stars...

A Scrap Booking Distraction

Yesterday night I got a bit of bad news in my RL and it's had a ripple effect, as these things always tend to do into my SL as well... I wanted to curl up and do something that will distract myself from the dark thoughts that were brewing, and since I couldn't really get myself in the mood to pose for pictures I decided to unpack my Christmas goodies.
As I sat on the floor, I found a new Holidays Scrapbook and decided it was time to sort through some of my pretty pictures... Memories of Christmasses that were better... 

Buried deep in a box of Christmas Clutter - from Half-Deer - covered with wrapping paper, fairy lights and tinsel - which actually is a new release, along with the santa head bands from dust bunny at Santa Inc - was the Holidays Scrapbook - from Insomnia Angel - just waiting to be filled with pretty pictures, and this would be just the distraction that I needed... 
I dressed my teddy in his cozy Christmas Pyjamas - a teddy from hive - and sat down with the book to start filling the pages with wonder, and as time slipped by somehow HellBone managed to sneak in with a brilliant Santa Cookie Jar that contained some candy cane cookies - from Junk Food at Anthem - and a very large mug of hot cocoa - from what next. 
Lots of nice things to take my mind off the bad things...

The Guide of the Moon

Time to relax after a long day at work, I find myself dozing on the sofa and letting my mind drift into a slumber of sorts. I know that I should be taking a shower to unwind, but I cannot help myself, laying in the far and keeping my eyes closed to block out all of the noise of the day is a damn good idea... 
While my mind drifts off, I find myself floating into the clouds, the darkening clouds where the stars are slowly beginning to peek out and glitter the sky... 

Floating in the Starbright Starlight- which is actually an older backdrop from Synnergy - I found myself travelling just a little too high... The moon was clearly visible, but that's not what was the most surprising. As I peeped over the clouds, my eyes adjusting to the twinkling stars  and being so close to the moon, I realised that it was being held like a Moon Balloon - from Schadenfreude - by one of the most amazing creatures I've ever seen... A moonlit KIRIN Dragon - a beautiful release from Forest Fantasy Store that includes not just the gorgeous body tattoos, but various body spikes, horns, and a beautiful tail - in silver and white, was guiding the moon through the sky, surrounded by dancing Willow the Whisps - from Hextraordinary. So ethereal was she, such a magical dragonness of the moonlight...

Flutters at the Flower Market

It's been such a hot few days here, and I worked my ass off all weekend, so today I've been able to finally able to take a break and relax a little bit. I really hope that things cool down here so that I don't have to work in heat like that again. 
Today has been fairly relaxing, I've done a few things around the house, taking my time with them while trying to stay cool, and even went to the market. I was so tempted to get some flowers, there are SO many beautiful flowers and they looked so happy... I know they'd wilt at home... 

One of my favourite things in my SL home has to be the little market area that I've set up... I wanted something pretty to decorate the space, and since I love flowers, the flower market seemed to fall together naturally... SO MANY FLOWERS, and a touch of magic... I'd done some shopping, I'd bought a paper and some bread and fruits but the colours of the flowers, and the flashing flickers of colours drew me in. The beautiful Fluttery Friends - a hunt item from Quills & Curiosities, available until August 31st at Enchantment - were enjoying the gorgeous flowers too... What a beautiful Flower Shop - a pose set from Fashiowl helped with this picture set up - and well once hooked, I was buying flowers LOL...

Inside a Wizard's Office...

 As the Midnight Order moves in, it is definitely calling in all of the magical and sometimes macabre beings into the dark.... Some of those just happen to be a little badly Mischief Managed, and happen to be a collection - or should that be a coven - of Wizards and Witches... There's a market for the management of mischief, and it just so happens that one of the leaders of the Midnight Order has been shopping for supplies... 

With the light glittering in through the Zadkiel Windows - from Schadenfreude at Midnight Order - setting out the new potion bottles on the table, and dropping just a little into the already crack cauldron, the witches Bean'o friends - from banana peel - seemed to be having a great time... 
The lighting in this room looks magical in itself, but a lot of that is due to the amazin collection of lighting - Dragons, Bats and even the adorably cute Owl - a new release from Krescendo at Mischief Managed...

Robins and Pansies in Spring

Spring brings new life... The flora and fauna are all coming back to life from their Winter sleep, there's new flowers and baby animals popping up everywhere!! It's also the time that the fairies are waking up too, they are waking up and helping out with all of the births... 
Even today, on the balcony that overlooks the courtyard, in a pretty little bird box a daddy Robin has come to check on his new brood, a nest full of pink little babies... He's been lucky, there's a support waiting for him... A Pansy Fae woke up and came to lend him a little magic... 

The Neighbourhood is now full of Robin song... The little robins - from Hextraordinary - are hiding in the safety of the bird box - which is actually a photobooth for the Spring Collection, from Synnergy at The Liaison Collaborative. It's only accessible from the balcony's railings, making it perfectly cat proof, although the fairies can get in hehe... 
His help today is a Pansy Fae, she was lured in by the purple flower - which is strange since normally purple and I don't tend to go well together - but pansies are SO pretty...
