Spreading our wings…

In my case.  It feels more like mine are being stretched by force.  No pain no gain is the saying? 🙂

I’m just showing off some more things I found in my shopping excursions.

Country Girl

She’s got
a heavy heart,
a messy soul,
a reckless mind,
and I think it’s
beautiful the way
she carries herself.

I’m disinclined to acquiesce to your request…

“Life’s pretty good, and why wouldn’t it be? I’m a pirate, after all.” ~ Johnny Depp

Pirate 4

I always have good intentions of blogging things that I like and put together during the actual event. Then you know those unexpected things happen that get in the way.  When that occurs, intentions while good, take a back seat. Though better late than never?  I’ll just pretend it is.  Some of the items were from the Fantasy Collective in April that can probably be found in the main stores now. Plus transferable items from a friend and fellow blogger, Sita Writer, which can also be found on market place from AleyMart for free.  Everything is listed under credits.

Pirate 1

“Not all treasure is silver and gold mate.”   It includes the diamonds and emeralds too!   It’s all good and dandy, until I landed in pirate jail and became bosom buddies with the Cap’n.  He wouldn’t share his rum even after I sat there hearing all about his wild adventures in Second Life.

Pirate 8

“{{Hands off}} my booty.”

Pirate 6

“Ye be warned! Pirates be operatin’ in these waters.”

I got the last laugh blowing everything to smithereens.

Shattered

Snapshot_0012

I found this shattered man statue at an animated texture shop.  It seemed like it would make a great decor item for the house, even if the space I have him in now is a bit tight for his outstretched arms. I’m breaking in the new mini furniture set that Aria released for this month’s FaMESHed event that consists of the sofa, table and vase with poppies.  I love the details on the sofa and kept going between the three colors and finally settled on this grey.  I must say that I really like when you can buy an item that gives you choices in the wood and fabric textures.  Personally, I am more inclined to spend lindens on an item like this for a set price than for an item with one color choice for the same price.  I also really like that some designers are allowing you to buy items individually.   I don’t always want the whole set, but would love to have a particular accessory that comes with the set.

Snapshot_0032

This cool jacket that I’m wearing is a group gift from .Shi.  It comes with a HUD to change the jacket color and comes with a fabric necklace.  The necklace took me a little time to fit almost right, but the hair covered the bit of imperfection, which is the necklace going through the jacket.  I believe this will vary by avatar and mine is a little bigger than normal.

St. Patrick Goodies…

For each petal on the shamrock
This brings a wish your way –
Good health, good luck, and happiness
For today and every day.
~Author Unknown

Snapshot_003

I remember growing up that St. Patrick’s always signified wearing green, otherwise, we would get pinched by someone.  My Google search about why pinching was done revealed that wearing green would make you invisible to the Leprechauns and the pinching is a reminder to warn you.   This seems to be more of an American thing?

Snapshot_007

The holiday is right around the corner and Aphrodite Shops has released some fun things to celebrate St. Patrick’s — like this Shamrock Pub, which is excellent for role-playing.   It’s an easy set up with a rezzer that allows you to position the bar and stools exactly where you want it or move it around as necessary.  The bar dispenses drinks.  To create the whole atmosphere of a pub, there is an option to add-on a barrel table and with stools, which you can see in the background in the first picture towards the windows.

While I didn’t use this buffet table full of yummy St. Patrick treats in the pub.  It certainly can be used in whole as shown for the pub, your own parties or you can always use only the foods you want for your own table settings.   Some of the treats you get in this buffet is pizza cones or pizza in a cute shamrock shape,  fondue, cake, cookies and drinks.

Snapshot_010

However, if you want a more intimate setting then try the romantic table for two.   This would be a wonderful way to surprise that special someone in your life.  The table rezzes food from a menu, from starters to desserts. This setting also comes with a limited edition of one of the most expensive champagnes in the world.  🙂

TGIF

Snapshot_018

Since my work requires me to be on call at any given time if an emergency arises I have never been one to watch the clock or pay much attention to the fact that it’s Friday and it’s the weekend.  Plus,  if I say so myself, my work ethic has always been high and maybe it’s also the fact that I can take leave whenever I have a need if my schedule allows.  Though this week has been sort of grueling in a mental way and I’m truly thankful it’s Friday.

This picture is nothing more than just playing with wind-lights and Pic Monkey.

Happy Friday!
