The first thing that came to mind when I read that this week’s Single Frame Story challenge was “Watch” was steampunk. Steampunk always makes me think of grandfather clocks, pocket watches, and time pieces of all sorts. I briefly toyed with … Continue reading →

As often seems to happen when I’m taking pictures of a location or outfit, the Single Frame Story prompt emerges from the maze of my mind. Who knows if this week’s prompt Vanilla played a part in the look or … Continue reading →

One of the more interesting things about being part of a global community like Second Life is listening to the talk of time zones and seasons. Who hasn’t had that experience of saying good night just as another is saying … Continue reading →

It’s been an unusually difficult and stressful few weeks recently for me, both online and off. It’s rare and unfortunate when that’s the case in both venues because I can’t use one to escape the other. Frying pan or fire? … Continue reading →

The notecard and blog post for the latest ColdLogic release was titled “Bad Girls in Great Cardigans”. I had to smile, that sounded like a perfect inspiration for a blog post. I love the combination of the pink cardigan with the black … Continue reading →

I have a confession to make, well maybe two depending how you see things. The first is that I haven’t spent a lot of time visiting Art Galleries in Second Life. I’m not sure why, I love looking at images … Continue reading →

Twice this week I logged in, no small feat in itself lately, and I had not only an inspiration, but a plan. I wanted to finish the photoshoot and story that I gave of hint of in my Create a … Continue reading →

When I opened up WordPress today to start writing, I realized this was my 100th post. I can’t even believe that, it sure doesn’t feel like a hundred. I suppose I should do something special to mark the occasion but … Continue reading →

Remember the feeling of opening a new notebook, journal or daytimer at the start of a new year? All the clean crisp pages, those little promises you make to yourself about having neater handwriting and most importantly using it more often? … Continue reading →

It’s that time of year again, the busy time. If it’s not baking or school concerts, it’s shopping or visiting friends and family. My preferred down time after a long hectic day is to escape and unwind in Second Life … Continue reading →

I first read about The Tower by Rebeca Bashly on the LEA blog and in all honesty, I didn’t know what it was. The description is pretty vague. Tight lipped as to what the installation is about, and setting up … Continue reading →

We recently got word that Unhinged raised enough for Eku to schedule and receive her surgery. I’m so moved by everyone who participated; from DJ’s to creators, all the SL residents who stopped by to shop or donate, to the … Continue reading →

When I first signed up to be an “official” blogger for the Unhinged Gatcha Festival I had no hesitation or reservations. As a general rule I don’t commit to things in Second Life, especially not blogging, because I can never guarantee my online availability nor can I predict when the mood to write or take [...]

I don’t think it’s overstating to say that Bryn Oh is my favourite SL artist. I’m fascinated by the way in which her offline art becomes digital creations and how she uses those same SL builds to create Machinima which she then presents back to the real world. I’ve been working on tackling my SL [...]

The seasons changed while I was away and I found myself searching my inventory for something fall’ish. Apparently that’s not a word, but I’m using it anyway. I suppose there is no real reason to change your wardrobe for the seasons in Second Life, but I was just feeling the urge for winter colors and [...]

The hardest part about returning to a blog after a two month absence has got to be deciding what to say. “Hi honey, I’m home.” No, that’s not quite right. It’s funny, there is this unbelievably strong temptation to share all the reasons I’ve been away from this blog and from SL in general, but for once [...]

I recently decided it was time to tackle my bloated and chaotic inventory. At one time, I prided myself on keeping it perfectly organized and under 10K (I once heard somewhere this was optimal for performance but I have no idea if that’s true). Hair: Long, Short, Up, Ponies, Pig Tails and subfolders within those [...]

It’s rare that I’m in Second Life on a week day, but as I was pouring my third cup of coffee and debating what to do with that last day of my long weekend I remembered that the Virtual Artist Alliance’s PhotoHunt Challenge has a Monday event at 11:30 SLT. I logged in and arrived just in [...]

This week’s colour challenge is Jonquil and though it feels to me that we’ve had a lot of yellow, I didn’t mind this color at all because the name alone makes me smile. Jonquils remind me of being a kid, probably because that’s what my parents actually called them. I think I was in my teens before [...]
