Stealing a Glance

I do not know
how not to steal glances
and look at you

like you’re the rainbow
of all things ethereal and wild
awaiting to disappear with the rain

Be Uniquely You

I have blogged unicorn apparel before; onesies and a t-shirt. This time I’ve gotten my hands on these awesome unicorn shorts! It is time for Unicon over at the Pink Cream Pie sim and FKD is participating in this event with a few items. I am wearing the Raphael Unicorn Shorts. The event starts tomorrow, April 9th, which is National Unicorn Day and it runs for ten days. Go on over, have some fun and celebrate the unicorns!

Game On

The NHA DOA Sport Shorts is a new release by Treized Designs and available right now at The Men Jail Event.

100% Original Mesh. The fatpack HUD gives you 40 Textures in total – 20 FRONT/BACK – 10 Rope. This Product contains fitted versions for Legacy, Gianni, Belleza and Slink bodies.

The tattoo is a previous release by CAROL G. The Garuda Male TaTToo is now available at the mainstore and marketplace. See front picture in this blog post.

Careful Not To Spill

It’s not one giant step that does it. It’s lots of little steps.

Someone said that a shortcut is the longest distance between two points. There’s much truth in that. I can’t remember a single time where I’ve been pleased with the outcome after I’ve rushed something or tried taking a shortcut. On foot shortcuts work very well when you know the map, but in life in general? Nope. Forget it. Take all the little steps needed to make sure you achieve your goal. It takes as long as it takes and it’s worth it.

I’m safely transporting my drink from A to B wearing:

The Varus Shorts by Treized Designs are fitted for Jake, Gianni and Legacy bodies and HUD driven with several different colours to choose from; solids and two-tones.

A big thank you to my new fashion sponsor, Treized Designs, for trusting in me to showcase their products. I’m excited to be on their team as they venture forward with fitted mesh! THANK YOU!

Dog Days…

dog days plural noun

Definition of dog days

1: the period between early July and early September when the hot sultry weather of summer usually occurs in the northern hemisphere

2: a period of stagnation or inactivity

Merriam Webster
ARCBACK Denim Shorts and Polo Shirt

Did you know?

Dogs aren’t the only creatures uncomfortable in oppressive heat, so why does a dog get singled out in dog days? The dog here is actually the Dog Star, which is also called Sirius. The star has long been associated with sultry weather in the northern hemisphere because it rises simultaneously with the sun during the hottest days of summer. In the ancient Greek constellation system, this star (called Seirios in Greek) was considered the hound of the hunter Orion and was given the epithet Kyon, meaning “dog.” The Greek writer Plutarch referred to the hot days of summer as hēmerai kynades (literally, “dog days”), and a Latin translation of this expression as dies caniculares is the source of our English phrase.

75° F in Northern Norway feels like this. It’s been like this for three whole days! It’s nice though, I’m going to enjoy it while it lasts because the average summer temperature where I live is 53° F.

Let’s Go! – Strike a Pose 2019

If you take my hand
We can run away
Stay close to my love
‘Cause here we go again

P.O.D. – Here We Go
Let’s Go! Poses by Crystal Poses

The closest I ever got to skateboarding was playing video games. Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater, anyone? I sucked. I’ve played a lot of video games, for someone who sucks at gaming! Anyway, while taking the photos for these poses we could at least pretend for a moment, that we were good skaters. The poses look amazing, don’t you think? The pose pack contains one couple pose and two male and two female single poses. Skateboards for each pose are included. You can find the ‘Let’s Go!” poses at the Crystal Poses Mainstore!

Shirt and shorts by FKD

For the photos I also needed skatepark appropriate attire and I have to say FKD came through on that one! You can get both the shirt and the shorts at the FKD Mainstore!
