My grandma and I talked at least once a week over the last ten years... except for the last two. She was about the only person on my RL dad's side of the family who didn't spend most of the time pretending I didn't exist, and she showed an unwavering support for me matched by… Continue reading 59. How to… keep going.
58. How to… be happy.
This week has sucked. Y'all remember those commercials for Staples with the easy button? I find myself feeling like I need a reset button for this week, because while things are seldom easy, this week has essentially knocked me down and kicked me a few times with some nice pointy heels, and I'm just exhausted.… Continue reading 58. How to… be happy.
57. How to… add some steam to your SL dream.
Bwahaha. I couldn't help it guys. This paddle is so pretty and it maaaatches my tattoo. Isn't it yummy? Those of you who know me may not be surprised to know I'm a kinkster, and while I don't usually spend time in these blogs bragging about my sponsors, Short Leash was one of the first… Continue reading 57. How to… add some steam to your SL dream.
56. How to…give ’em everything… and survive.
Pssst. Here's the secret: it requires a baseball bat. But not really. See, the thing about relationships in both worlds is that we're people, and people are flawed, scared, and sometimes dumb animals who will often bite the metaphorical hand that feeds them. It happens sometimes... more than any of us would like to admit.… Continue reading 56. How to…give ’em everything… and survive.
55. How to… fix it.
So, I was feeling some pretty strong Rosie the Riveter vibes from this new Vinyl release. #sorrynotsorry, but I had to go for it. But of course, since I was super excited about something, literally everything went wrong. That's how it goes, right? My avatar didn't want to rez, shadows weren't behaving... I'm getting this… Continue reading 55. How to… fix it.
54. How to… reclaim yourself.
There comes a point in time when you have to admit to yourself that something somewhere has gone horribly wrong and you can no longer pull the metaphorical blanket over your head like you did when you were a little kid scared a monster would come out of the closet. That worked when you were… Continue reading 54. How to… reclaim yourself.
53. How to… use your surroundings to your advantage.
So, I think I took like eight hundred different photos with this outfit from Vinyl before I finally decided on this one. Different poses, solo shots, couples poses. The weird and amazing thing about SL is that you can make something look amazing so many different ways. Sometimes, though, the most fun thing to do… Continue reading 53. How to… use your surroundings to your advantage.
52. How to… make your dreams a reality… kinda.
Okay, y'all. So I'm at the sim taking this photo, minding my own business, and I get an IM from someone who asks me, "Come here often?" which I think I've only ever heard as a pick-up line in a movie and have never actually seen used by another human being. So that was interesting,… Continue reading 52. How to… make your dreams a reality… kinda.
51. How to… Enjoy the alone time.
I've got my hand in a lot of cookie jars right now. I am the type of person who usually has about a million things going on at once, and that's fine. The chaos is kind of something I thrive in... but staying busy is also a nice way to distract myself from the ugliness… Continue reading 51. How to… Enjoy the alone time.
50. How to…make it on your own.
Nifty, nifty, my blog has fifty (posts)! *coughs* Anyways, there I was at the Getaway again, minding my own pixely business, when I realized I was walking into a fence while trying to set something else up... so instead of what I was originally planning, I ended up with this photo instead... which I suppose… Continue reading 50.
