My friend Zim once nicknamed me Nerderella and I will freely admit to being a bit of a geek. I think I'm more of an aspirational geek than a real born-to-geek type though. I put a lot of this down to the fact that I was so rubbish at Science at school. When I went [...]

It’s Time to Sock it To Em
Happy Friday everyone. You ever get those feelings like you're really looking forward to the weekend but you're not sure why? I have lots going on, all of which I'm excited and enthusiastic about but I'm really hyped for the weekend. Maybe it's because I am dj'g twice this weekend and after a long break [...]
To Whom it May Concern
The artwork on the wall keeps drawing my attention. It's called 'To Whom it May Concern' and going through my head is all the things I want to type a letter to 'Whom it May Concern' and then I realised that it no longer concerns them. In fact it probably never did. My mind moved on [...]
Those Priceless Moments
Life can be hard...sometimes it's a few bumps on the path and sometimes it's really major roadblocks that make you stop and assess what is going on, who you are and what you believe in. We're built to deal with the bumps without thinking about them too much...unless there are suddenly lots of bumps and [...]
Mainstore Monday – Overhigh…OVH
Late last week I bought an outfit at Overhigh and thought now here's a store I should feature in Mainstore Monday. So I teleported back there today and it had totally and completely changed from how it looked just a few days ago. I'm pretty sure I caught them in mid-move but I'm still going [...]
So Much Cute, So Much Yumi
It's the road to ruin I tell ya! I see my friends umming and arring over whether to get a mesh head and the reason they don't is often 'it just wasn't me' and I completely understand where they are coming from. When Kess first graced SL she had one skin...one shape...period. She was tall, [...]
Futures Made of Virtual Insanity
In a few short weeks time the world around us will turn tinseltastic. There's already advertisements for 'the holidays' and I'm sure this year will be no different when it comes to the question of what we call the holiday season. Up until I was made redundant recently the company I worked for was a [...]
and If I Die Before I Wake…
A friend posted yesterday about 'Be The Reason Someone Smiles Today' and it got me thinking about that phrase. I like to think that I have lived my life by those words without even realising it. My nature is one where I like to please and I often seek approval. At work I've always been [...]
I’m Starting a new Life as a Fisherman’s Friend
I met a friendly fisherman today at Peatonville Bay. He didn't talk much as he sifted through his nets, fixing them up for his next outing on the high seas. He was smiley, with that sea-weathered, ruddy look that fisherman tend to have...well, fisherman AND alcoholics but I'm pretty sure he was a fisherman first [...]
Mainstore Monday – Fancy Decor
I skipped a week last week but here we are and I'm back with another Mainstore Monday. I've changed the format slightly too and will be focussing on one store, not two. The purpose of Mainstore Monday is to redress the balance a little between event shopping and visiting mainstore locations. There are some wonderful [...]
