I feel right at home

I’ve been havin’ dreams
Jumpin’ on a trampoline
Flippin’ in the air
I never land, just float there
As I’m looking up
Suddenly the sky erupts
Flames alight the trees
Spread to fallin’ leaves
Now they’re right upon me
Wait if I’m on fire
How am I so deep in love?
When I dream of dying
I never feel so loved
I’ve been having dreams
Splashin’ in a summer stream
Trip and I fall in
I wanted it to happen
My body turns to ice
Crushin’ weight of paradise
Solid block of gold
Lying in the cold
I feel right at home

Neutral

Matching shoes to outfits is often one of the curses we face in the fashion world. However, when it comes to matching an outfit from {le fil casse}, I know hands down that Breathe will be my goto for shoes. Their color palettes are very similar and if all else fails, you can find that perfect neutral color at Breathe. I still remember the first pair of shoes I bought from Breathe back in the day. They were a neutral tone with a big buckle at the ankle and I wore those shoes a lot! I’m all about some neutral tones from head to toe. Both of these brands are amazing for that.

It’s hard to show in a still photograph, but I did my best to show the glitter on the dress. However, what you don’t see is that this glitter sparkles! Not like bling. Don’t be silly. Jacinda has infused some sort of moving glitter magic on this dress and it is wonderful. I mean, who doesn’t love shiny, sparkly dresses?!?!?

One more quick little shoutout. Valentine’s Day is around the corner, but not all of us have a romantic interest, much less a Valentine. No matter what side of the V-day coin you relate to, there’s a coffee cup for you at Burrow Co. You can see my favorite in the photo, but if you click the link you’ll see all three. Naturally, I had to put Rezz Room’s chihuahua in the photo, cuz if you’ve been to Burrow Co., you’ve probably met Gus the resident coffee house mascot. There’s so much to see there, so drop by, grab a cup of coffee, and explore the sim. ♥

Green Light

I do my makeup in somebody else’s car
We order different drinks at the same bars
I know about what you did and I wanna scream the truth
She thinks you love the beach, you’re such a damn liar
Those great whites, they have big teeth
Hope they bite you
Thought you said that you would always be in love
But you’re not in love no more
Did it frighten you
How we kissed when we danced on the light up floor?
On the light up floorBut I hear sounds in my mind
Brand new sounds in my mind
But honey I’ll be seein’ you ‘ever I go
But honey I’ll be seein’ you down every road
I’m waiting for it, that green light, I want it
‘Cause honey I’ll come get my things, but I can’t let go
I’m waiting for it, that green light, I want it
Oh, I wish I could get my things and just let go
I’m waiting for it, that green light, I want it

Just Wear It

I’ve tried to avoid doing photos with masks. I didn’t want to offend anyone or make light of our current situation. However, since I found out that this is no longer a one and done disease. Not only can you contract this disease twice, but the numbers are getting insanely higher by the day. So, it seems that for those of us not wanting to get sick, masks are going to be part of our lives for quite some time. Ladies are going to save a ton on lipstick!
However, I’m looking at this as an opportunity for us to really showcase our eyes. We can get super creative with our masks and matching eye shadow combinations! Okay, sure we might not do our hair with branches sticking out, but the mask and eye shadow combo are brilliant and you know it! Plus, if we have to wear masks for a while, they might as well be fashionable. Maybe if we make them cute enough we can get everyone to wear them, even those selfish assholes that think they’re too good to wear a mask.

appelle-moi mon cherie

Cover me with kisses baby, cover me with love
Roll me in designer sheets, I’ll never get enough
Emotions come, I don’t know why
Cover up love’s alibi

Call me on the line
Call me, call me any, anytime
Call me my love
You can call me any day or night
Call me

Aah, he speaks the languages of love
Aah, amore chiamami
Ooh, appelle-moi mon cherie
Anytime, anyplace, anywhere, anyway
Anytime, anyplace, anywhere, any day

Something’s Gotta Happen

For our only hope is falling in love
With who we are
And what we wanna do
Is it gonna be you,
Is it gonna be me
Well something’s gotta happen
Or we’ll be on our knees
On our knees
For our only hope is falling in love
With who we are
And what we wanna do
Is it gonna be you,
Is it gonna be me
Well something’s gotta happen
Or we’ll be on our knees
On our knees

Feel it in your bones
The need for something more
The more and more you wait
It’s burning you
Feel it in your bones
The need for something more

Better Late Than Never

Every year there’s a Second Life challenge to do a yearbook photo and I’ve never participated. High school was not the best of times for me. I could have a do over, I know I would’ve done things very differently. I suppose that’s true for most of us. Anyway, whenever people do the yearbook photo challenge I can’t help but giggle, because I hated our senior yearbook photos. The first ice school I went to, gave an option to do the standard senior photo with the velvet crap draped off shoulder for girls/tuxedo for boys OR you could pay for the deluxe package to have outdoor shots that reflected your personal style. However, life happened and we moved. So, the high school I ended up graduating from didn’t offer that. They only did the standard velvet crap. That pretty much summed up my high school years. Today when I shot this picture, I giggled at how long it took me to finally take the kind of picture I always wanted for my real life senior yearbook photo. Better late than never, I suppose…even if its virtual.

Pixel Prom 2020

Pixel Prom has been a thing for many years in Second Life, but this was my first prom ever. No, I’m not a Euro that’s never had an opportunity to go to prom. I’m in the U.S. I had dates for three out of four proms, but I managed to weasel my way out of all of them except one and technically that was not a prom it was a Military ball and it was the only introduction I needed to formal dresses for me to know that was NOT for me. In fact, I hated that dress and the dance soooo much that I called a friend of mine to come take my place so I could go home and get that god forsaken dress off my body. No, our date did not mind, he was lucky to have a date! She was all about formals so she was more than happy to take my place. *shudders* I will never understand the appeal of those fluffy restrictive dresses. Nope, those are NOT for me. With that said, I was fortunate enough in Second Life to not only have a date, but to find something more suitable to my taste. Chris loved my outfit, so that was all the approval I needed.
Now, I will say this…the actual dance was quite lovely…well, until Chris had to go to bed. Then I was mostly missing him and felt restricted once again by the gown length apparel. Let’s face it, twerking in a gown….doesn’t look great. Ah well, it was an amazing night, even if I had to dress up fancy. I had the most handsome date, too. So, that certainly didn’t hurt. *winks*

The Best People

“The best people possess a feeling for beauty, the courage to take risks, the discipline to tell the truth, the capacity for sacrifice. Ironically, their virtues make them vulnerable; they are often wounded, sometimes destroyed.”

Lions Don’t Lose Sleep

Think I got you on my mind
Not really one to waste my time
What you doin’? What you sayin’?
I ain’t really got no feelings
I don’t even know your name
So why don’t you go and do the same?
Mind your business, little bitches
I know you’re listenin’ so just hear me there

The truth is you don’t even
Know what the hell you believe
But you should believe
Lions don’t lose sleep
Over the opinions of sheep

So if you’re waitin’
To watch me fall
Watch me fall
Watch me fall
I’ma keep you waitin’
To watch me fall
Watch me fall
Watch me fall
I’ma keep you waitin’
