Mornings with Mozart

The hardest part of any morning for me, aside from the whole getting out of bed thing, is waiting for the coffee to brew. I am a creature of habit and have a very certain morning routine that a friend called pretentious, I listen to Mozart while I have my coffee. For a while it was just Mozart, but I have branched out and now just listen to symphony playlists in the morning.

Once I have coffee in hand I give the cats their morning treats, they have a routine too I guess, and then I head to my office of chaos for music and list making. Gotta make sure I plan ahead before I start hitting up all the events and fairs and what not. Off to get back to my day, enjoy the credits!

Mushroom Afternoon

One must wear only the finest of hats when foraging to find a cache of mushrooms and apples. Of course taking a break and having a little read before popping off for another look see never hurt a person. Lets me fair nothing beats the feel of lush green grass on your feet. This does of course mean that your feet get a touch dirty, but I assure you it washes away quite easily.

One must never go adventuring in this day and age without a way to communicate should an emergency arise. Or to check out the latest tea being spilled by friends and foes alike. Not that I would do such a thing on my phone, nor do I assume you do either.

Bonnie Anne

As it is St. Patrick’s Day I figured I would skip the usual shamrocks and green and go for a little homage to an Irish pirate, Anne Bonny. A fierce red head who pillaged and plundered in the Caribbean. I admit I did not do much research on her, but she did make good inspiration for a post today and an excuse to dress like I pirate.

She may look pretty with her long red curls, but I assure you she would run you through with her sword given a reason. Or maybe that is just me when I am cranky? Either way enjoy your Sunday (or whatever day it is you read this)!

Family Secrets

Imagine you are in a Hallmark movie and the whole idea is you get these letters from your great grandmother and must learn the family secret. I will admit I am a Hallmark Christmas movie watcher. They are cheesy and predictable and make for a festive background sound when I am working in my office in my non-digital life.  I have another post in the works about things these movies have made me think about Christmas. I will admit for years I thought there was a family secret in my family too, but it turns out I was wrong.

The Witches – Water witch

Last but certainly not least we have our water witch. Coming up with a familiar for her was a bit more challenging. I mean a shark would be an awesome familiar to have, but you are a bit limited on how it would be able to help given that it needs a large body of salt water. Let’s be fair it basically eliminates all fish from the familiar equation, so we need to look at amphibians. That led me to the golden poison dart frog. Most people may not keep a poisonous frog as a pet, but I am sure a little spirit magic could mask it. Who wouldn’t want a beautiful but deadly familiar? Not to mention I happen to be a huge fan of poison dart frogs of every color.

And to end this little series a group photo…

Not Before Coffee

This is a common phrase in my house. My brain does not want to work until I have finished that first cup of glorious bean water in the morning. I may even have a coffee mug or two that reflect this. I would say it’s an addiction, but really I drink coffee for the general public…and because I can’t do jail time.

I can’t lie, sometimes when my brain isn’t firing properly I become the queen of malapropisms. It can cause quite the embarrassment especially if I am in the drive thru attempting to order my much needed coffee. That is why most days it is safer for me to make coffee at home, sometimes I even get dressed like a normal person to do it!

The Wedding Guest

In my last post I talked about my drive to Georgia for a wedding. The part I left pout was that while I was present for the ceremony I missed out on most of the reception. I mean I was at the venue, but I missed out on all the usual activities like the cake cutting and dancing. Why you may ask, well it’s because I was focused on being a good person to someone who needed a friend, and some distraction. I did drink my fair share of gin and tonics and got some of the cake though to there was that!

Prior to the wedding I went through at least half a dozen different dress options trying to find one that would be comfortable and look good too. Had I known that I would be feast on by mosquitos I would have worn a pantsuit instead! I would have had such an easier time dressing for this wedding if I could have reached into SL and pulled out dresses that way. Oh well.

Hey Mickey

I wasn’t kidding when I said I was bringing the 80’s back. When I saw these cheer outfits from Dead Doll I automatically knew I needed a Toni Basil moment. For those of you who are youngun’s Toni Basil had a hit with the song “Mickey” which featured cheerleaders. While these pieces were released a bit ago it sometimes takes time to get three people together for pictures.

Bringing Back the 80’s

I’m bringing 80’s back, them other girls don’t know how to dress. I won’t continue to butcher that song I promise. But seriously if someone gives you lace gloves and you don’t get some material girl vibes are you even living? (if you are to young for that reference ask an older adult in your life) Before I end up making myself and other feel old I am going o move onto the credits.

Teddy Bear Day

Today is Teddy Bear Day or at least that is what some special day calendar thing told me. I had a hard time narrowing down which teddy bear themed idea I wanted to go with for my photo. As you can see I have decided to try and hide in plain sight among the other teddy bears. I will just have to save the other ideas for another time.
