Money Can Be Spirited Away

So you may know that HellBone and I are currently living somewhere that's not home while our house is being rennovated... If you haven't I don't blame you for ignoring my ranting over the past few weeks LOL, but it's one of the bigger stresses of my life right now, and I'm rambling about it A LOT... Anyway, luckily in this process we're being assisted with government subsidies, and it's not a brag it's a moment of "thank god" because everything is SO FECKING EXPENSIVE... We had to go buy a new toilet today... DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH THOSE THINGS COST?! I know that there are costs of manufacture and for the sales company, but they are getting things cost price and it seems the consumer is getting bit in the butthole... Is it greed or is it necessity these days?!

I know talking about money can sometimes seem crass... I'd never ask anyone about their income or share mine with the world for that matter but they always say that money makes the world go round. They also say that it doesn't make you happy, but at the same time that's not enitrely true is it... If you don't have enough to live on or with then you're more likely to be a stressed and unhappy person... It seems though that these days everything is SUPER expensive, and yes I get it's because of all of the war taking place and the cost of living has naturally increased but life gets more expensive by the minute! 
Even the spirits that guard the world's most secretive vaults are concerned... There seems to be an explosion and a drainage of captial here, there and everywhere... Our little Spirit Guide - ears and a tail set from HAZEL by the way - is concened because her soul key - which is actually the Dungeon Keys from [NoRush] that sit in her chest - are no longer needed by the powers that be... They can just raise prices so the people that need her keys are left to suffer...

Magic of the Fantasy Faire

Today is an important day today in Second Life, since today is the day that Race for Life opens it's Fantasy Fair and therefore the fantasy beings will be able to gather some amazingly wonderful things, experience just a little more magic and raise some funds that will head towards cancer research... 
Cancer Research is something very important but at the moment I am finding it more so than ever because of my mother being sick with Pancreatic Cancer... I would do anything to find a way for her to feel better right now... I would hope that any glimmer of magic could help... 

We are trying to find happiness in every little thing that we're doing, and we aren't planning things too far ahead so that she can just take things easy and let things happen as they happen... 
I'm searching for as much magic as I can in Second Life to help me get through this, so I can support her...

Warning Signs in the Club Tonight!

I may have had the day off today but I've been a busy girl... I'm trying to keep myself occupied at the moment, living in this craphole of a flat... They even asked me if I'd be interested in covering shifts downstairs, and I KNOW the moment that they get me on their list that any time it's busy I WILL be called to come downstairs and help any time it's busy. No thank you, really... I don't want that at all... 
If I was going to take on another job it would be something totally different from the work I already do, aside from the fact that I am entertaining people as they buy cheese, I think I'd need to do something of a little different sort of entertainment?! 

When I first started Second Life, I like a lot of people started as a dancer and an escort. I read a LOT of smut and love it in lots of different forms. I was always a rather bad girl, until I settled down with my hubby that is captain vanilla and like a big teddybear... I love him, don't me wrong but I'm kinda dying to be a bad girl LOL... Maybe that's the new job I've got to start... Maybe I should go back to being an escort and let the bad girl run free... 
It's play time - as the signs on the toy shelves from Krescendo - state, and this club is known to get a little wild... While the money rains down, as I take a moment to sit comfortably - in a pose from piXit - and get a lot of attention just for eating one of the club's Naughty Waffles - from everfaery at this month's round of Lewd Station... It's true what some say, food kinks are the best paying kinks hehe... I will have to put up some signs to warn people about any wetness that may be present around the stage!!!

It's My Birthday!

Breaking News, not just in Second Life but in Real Life too... 
The big news is that your girl, the randomest rambler of the blogging world - yes a big statement and I doubt it's true but I'm feeling a little silly right now - has been celebrating her birthday today... The random rambler has finally stepped out of her 30s and today she is starting her 40th year... 

I've spent a VERY long time in SL now, I've been here through my 21st birthday, and through years of work and marriage, and lots of friendships, but I WOULDN'T change a thing. I celebrated today with my hubby, that I met in SL, I spoke to my bestie that I know from years and years of Second Life friendship and I have had such a lovely day... It's been so nice I don't want to go back to work tomorrow LOL... Still for now, would anyone like a piece of cake to help me celebrate?!

Jason Bearhees on Friday the 13th

It's Friday the 13th, the second one this year so far, and once again my hubby has decided that tonight he's going to scare the pants off me and make me watch another Jason Voorhees movie special. It's worse watching it here, I'm not in my normal home in the middle of a housing estate...Right now I'm in the middle of nowhere lol... 
I had to do something a little cuter to make this evening a little less scary... 

Luckily, one of the makers of the cutest things in Second Life has stepped in to help with that, and created a super special Friday the 13th group gift... Jason Bearhees - the current group gift from Tardfish - is a cute, cuddly, dancing version of our favourite slasher man... Yes he is armed with a rather large knife but his skills at slashing and slaying are much more suited to his killer dance moves... 
Rather than stalking people in the woods and making them jump, he's the kind of cutie killer that will lurk around the roots - a collection from Static, available at The Warehouse until March 18th - of the giant trees outside his Creepy Cabin - a backdrop from Bad Unicorn - and wait to dance until the sun rises... 

What is in the picture;
Bear: Tardfish - Jason Bearhees (Current Group Gift!)
Vines: Static - Root Kits (Available until March 18th at The Warehouse)
Trees: everfaery - Dreamshade Trees
Backdrop: [Bad Unicorn] - Creepy Cabin Backdrop

Sheep Counting Shepherdess

Today was my day off, I spent the day doing things to relax when I wasn't working on getting the house work done... I wanted to sleep, I wanted to curl up and hide under a blanket and not come out... When I did try to take a nap, there was far too much on my mind and I couldn't get myself to fall asleep if I even tried... 

I had to reach out and seek a little assistance... I reached out to someone I KNEW might help me and she took a few minutes but then took a long time rounding up her herd...

I cannot wait to celebrate this amazing new chapter in my life, but I'm kinda wishing this year would be done already... Now things are getting a bit worrying as Anna - my darling little kitty - is wobbling on her feet and I'm a bit scared for her too... So I'm starting my month with the amazing death of my 30s... 

Death has been having a field day but today, the death of his beautiful angel of death... The girl of the shoulder that she sits on is about to enter her 40s causing her a massive amount of shock lol...

Prepping the Bad Magic before Valentine's

Ahhh Wednesday, thank fuck you're finally done for me and I have the day off tomorrow... I NEED to have some time to relax, although with the building preparations and having to pack umore stuff I think I have a lot more to do than I might have anticipated LOL.... 
For tonight I'm going to kick back and work a little magic... The month of the hearts and flowers and romance is alomost upon us and for the next couple of weeks everything will no doubt be full of Valentine's sweetness... I'm not a Valentine fan, can't it be Halloween again?! Perhaps I need to find a way... 

Now if there is one thing I do know is that Monster Smut is often a good way to enjoy the romance and seduction without things being too sickly sweet... Since starting my reading journey I've discovered a LOT of new things that are somewhat intriguing... 
I've decided to let the bood thirsty monster out of myself, I'm going to let her let her hair down and plan her Valentine season... No mush, no sickly sweet, not even a card, just dark Valentine funsies... She's already preparing herself, she's had something to drink and has been to see the magical beings of the Midnight Order - which runs until February 20th by the way - to pick up some Love Potion and a Blood Vial - from Ritual - so that she can get started...

Decorations Don't Go Quietly!

It's that most yucky of days after the Christmas festivities in my house today... I'm not sure if it's today or tomorrow that it's traditional to take down Christmas decorations but in our house, we took the decor down today. I was not looking forward to it, but it has been done, everything is ready to be stashed away again and things look dark and empty... 

It makes me laugh how we use the same things over and over and over again, I'm not one of those people that wants a pristine or chic looking Christmas tree, I LOVE it when things are colourful and mismatched and traditions that remain the same every year... I know, especially in times like this, I want things to be cozy and comforting... I dislike this darkness that has decended in my living room today... It's only going to get emptier as we prepare the house for our moving date... 
While stuffing things in to the old chests in the Attic, I made a little discovery... One of the Gingerbread men that had appeared in many of my posts over the festive period was REALLY not ready to return to his Spring/Summer/Autumn sleep, he got angry and tried to Choke Me Out - he's a festive release from Tardfish that I HOPE will still be available in the mainstore but let me know if I'm wrong please! - and well since he wanted to stay awake I'll just have to take his place for a long nap in a cosy old trunk...

The Gingerbread Slay

Honestly it's hard to believe that it's Christmas week already, even with the fact that it feels like we've been talking about Christmas for ages now, I'm still shocked that it's almost here... Is that weird?! I guess it's because I don't feel ANYWHERE near the Christmas Spirit because there have been so many things dragging my mind into darker places than I've been in a LONG LONG time... I'll talk more about that after the happiness of the festivities are over, but for now I'm going to throw the prettiness into the ring, shake it up and see what happens... The darkness seeped through just a little and took over the gumdrop candy cuteness... 

I am in the mood for a little chaos, a little mayhem and a little evil... I've decided that my version of the Sugar Plum Fairy would rule her little corner of Sugar Land with a somewhat deadly iron fist... Her home at the Gingerbread Manor - which is a backdrop from Synnergy.Tavis, that I have actually butchered to use in the background of my picture, and have actually added the official Ad Poster to the bottom of the post... Oh and I'm sorry Synnergy.Tavis, the backdrop is gorgeous but I needed it to be a little different - in the Gingerbread town is perfectly positioned  to watch over her Gingerbread subjects...
That's not all... It's the perfect place for her to be able to get a Gingerbread Throne - from BackBone for the MadPea Advent Calendar - dragged out to the best view point for the public executions of the guilty in the sugar wars... Such a fabulous toy in the Gingerbread justice system, the Ginger Guillotine - available from Krescendo at Slay vs Sleigh until January 3rd - and it's being manned by her loyal Gingerbread Fighters - from Aardvark, available on Marketplace - who will dump the bodies in a Mug of coffee for their Queen...

Gingerbread Magic!

You can kinda tell I've had the day off today, a much needed day of rest so I can look through all the things I need to work on and see what crazy interesting things I can come up with... I want to find a little magic, I NEED to find a little magic, and I want something to make me feel Christmassy... 
Let's close our eyes and find a little of the Christmas magic... 

One of my favourite things about this time of year is a sudden need for some gingerbread cookies... I haven't eaten them all year, I've been resisting the urge and now I'm going to enjoy them dipped in some coffee... I cannot wait to taste them... 
I find myself a drawn to the magic of the cinnamon, the ginger, the crunch and apparently I'm not the only one... Did you know there is an adorable little fae that is our own little Gingerbread Fae with a mushroom hat - which is a look created by Faunus for this month's round of We Love Roleplay - that loves a candycane, but also enjoys watching the falling snow and the happiness of the gingerbread folks in their Christmassy Gingerbread Town...

The Wolves and The Enchanted Snowman

There is still a lot of interesting things going on in the Enchantment's Frostbitten Graveyard. The inhabitants have come out to play in full force, and their awakening has drawn in more friends to explore the frostbitten landscape... For some reason a snowy graveyard always feels a little Dickensian in it's drama to me, maybe that's just my love of the Victorian Gothic ghost stories perhaps, but I love the frostbitten temperatures at this time of year... 

Since the fresh snow has now coated the Lost Cemetary - an older but still amazing backdrop from K&S - leaving it looking a little Frostbitten - thanks to items created by InkMe, for this month's Enchantment - it seems that the cemeteries inhabitants have been busy building snowmen that may be a little darker than outer appearances would have you believe... The snowman whose eyes seem to glow and has a strange set of roots that seem a a little rotten... Something is amiss with that snowman, I guess that is why the Wild Wolves - a new release from Aardvark available until December 8th at ACCESS - are being fairly cautious around it... 
The protector of the wolves is a guardian of Blind Faith - a headdress from MoonSha, available at Enchantment - but she will hav to work some serious magic to rid this poor little snowman of whatever magic is making him crazy...

A Guardian of the Winter Realm

Enchantment is more than just a feeling, it's a total state of mind and the magic of a true enchantment is wonderful... Every now and then in Second Life a magical Enchantment comes to life and brings with it stories of magic, mystism and wonder... If you listen closely and take a peek through the gates of the graveyard you may see this month's magic sparkling in the snow... 
This month's magical enchantment is a tale of a young man's new found family of spirits in the graveyard and his troubles when dealing with both the living and the dead... It's a tale that could be true for real life right now, but I think it is time we slip through the gates to see what magic is occurring... 

As we cross the bridge over the Snow Path - a backdrop from Saintstreet, available now until November 30th at Enchantment's Frostbitten event - and head toward the Winter Realm Archway - by Tirrany Designs - we have to be careful. There are spirits that will jump out of the shadows and some of them are a little unhinged - like the pose set from -Extra-  that I am using here - just like the Lich Hollow - a head and skin set from BeSpoke - who is covered in ice with frozen wings... The magic is radiating from this monstrous fae, a protector of the graveyard...

A New Month's Magical Bath

It's bloody November... We ar so close to the year's end now you can almost smell it... Mariah Carey is on turbo defrost as of today and it won't be long before we can not avoid her song everywhere we go... 
Still it is the day after Halloween and the dark little spirits are packing their bags and heading home... Magic is being collected and stored by those magical beings which are staying behind, and I am a dark little being taking myself off for a nice relaxing bath... 

I've taken over the Shadow Oracle Room - a backdrop from Synnergy.Tavis - and I'm doing to try to retain some of the magic before it disappears until next Halloween... To do that, I'm going to get in a bath so that I'll be Spellbound - a pose and prop set from -Extra- - I'll soak in the magic and let it sparkle out of me from time to time...

Magical Dolly Monsters

Today was one of those boring but busy days at work, and because it was crappy weather, people were just hanging around and doing nothing but eating... It was hard trying to remain calm and not get mad at people for being like a plague of locusts that ate everything in sight... Due to this fact, right now I am freaking exhausted... 
That's what happens when you end up working hard and there never seems to be a break insight... Even a weekend doesn't seem long enough... 

Rudh has taken up a new challenge recently... She's been working hard on some magical new friends for herself, she wanted a collection of adorable new monsters in her life since the monsters that she surrounds herself by are far too much for her to hande right now... 
She's taken over her sisters Tailor Set - which was a past event release from ANTAYA - at her place in Briar Court - which is actually a backdrop from Synnergy.Tavis - and has been working really hard to replace the monsters around her with monsters that are better... A Soft & Spooky Collection - from Nylon Outfitters - of friends. It has kept her awake for far too long, and she may have a little insomnia right now, but as she's falling asleep it is the magic of her dreams that starts to to bring these new little friends to life...

The Prettiest Death

It's Halloween season, you can't really have missed it unless you're living under a rock, and we're getting closer and closer to the spookies coming to a head this month. There is somuch going on and I'm finding it very hard to keep my head up and think about things I need to get done. I won't complain, life is just moving very fast and I am more than a little tired, but at least it is moving forwards... Though I am not sure if it's due to Spooky Season, or if it's just because of some RL stuff at the moment but death seems to be on my mind a fair bit... 

Death has aways come in so many different forms, and even if you're not into graphic representations of Death many people will have an idea of what they believe this figure will look like. Even some of the world's most early human cultures had their representations of death and the vast majority of those were not the Grim Reaper that we often associate Death with nowdays. 
I think for me, my favourite representation of Death was the one from the Supernatural franchise, and Julian Richings - who played him - deserves multiple awards! Though if I was going to Grim Reaper or Death myself, I think she'd be a little more ethereal... A little more otherworldly... A little more kick butt in a pretty outfit...

The Vampire's Eternal Sparkle!

I am so sorry that I've been so down in the dumps lately... I've been lost in my own head. I'm trying to get into the spirit of Halloween, and even doing things that are spooky picture wise isn't helping right now... Heck even the Halloween themed smut I'm reading doesn't seem to be helping right now and I don't know what I can do about it... 
I need a little Halloween magic today and I have to dig deep to find it... I REALLY don't know where I'll find it... 

I managed to find a dark little Halloween fae in the moonlight, the darkess broken by the sparkling moonlight through the windows of the Eternal Rest - a backdrop from Synnergy.Tavis - the perfect place for a vampire and his fae muse. His Sunveil Monarch - which is the name of the collection by Aii, available from Engine Room that features the jacket, collar and jewels being worn here - his light in the darkness, his happiness in a place where he wil spend his L'eternite...

Leaving the Engine Room

I dont know what it is but at the moment I'm finding it hard to get into the spirit of Halloween... In fact, let me be honest and totally real here with you a moment, I am findingit hard to get into doing much of anything at the moment. I can sit staring at a look I'm putting together fora picture for hours and find no entertainment in it, all I want to do is sleep right now... That's not good is it?!
Maybe I need to fly away, escape to somewhere that's not in my mind and I don't need to think... Someone come get me and take me away please... 

There is about 8 days left before the Engine Room closes, and the interesting characters that have come out of the woodwork for the opening of the doors are slowly beginning prep for the closing... There are hot air balloons being readied in the wing of Reactor 4 - a building kit from mizu for the Engine Room - and as a captain of one, I'm going to head down early to prepare myself for their flight... My bags are packed, I want to get away...

Magic Beyond the Mirror!

I feel like I needed a little magic in my life today and whilst I was still waking up, I had a notecard come through that one of my bucket list stores had accepted me into their blogger team... I was elated and it's the magic I needed... I feel like I woke up from a slumber and the sparkling light allowed me to break free into the magical depths of my mind where the deepest and best magic resides... 

While tidying up some of the mess in my inventory, to distract myself from my mind, I found myself in a Forgotton Room - which is actually a backdrop from Dirty Rat - looking into a beautiful old mirror that without even the touch of a breath very quickly became a Broken Mirror - a gorgeous item from Moon Amore - that pulled me through it's broken glass to another world full of light and magic...

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...
