I’ll Drink to That

http://I'll Drink to That

So the world has gone crazy, and many of us are forced to spend all of our time at home.  Coughing and sneezing and headaches from seasonal allergies are always annoying but now they’re somewhat alarming, causing a full self-examination of symptoms and temperature taking.  The magnolia tree next door has started to bud, which has ALWAYS caused me to have severe allergic reactions, but this year, worry is among them.  On top of all the health issues, my workplace has closed, so I have more time to sit and watch my savings disappear… which is just a delightful exercise in itself especially considering that we were planning on retiring in just a few months.  But what can you do but try to keep yourself and your loved ones safe and roll with the punches?  I will say one thing… it’s a wonderful time to be in Second Life. I’m actually a bit surprised that there hasn’t been a big ad campaign to boost virtual worlds, with so many people worldwide locked in their homes, going stir crazy.  I for one will not be surprised to see a huge influx of newbies running around the grid, doing what we all did as newbies.  As for me, well, in addition to blogging, I’m doing more exploring, more music venues, & definitely more shopping.  LOTS of great events out there, with tons of goodies!  Here are just a few…  Maybe I’ll even finally learn to sail that boat I bought months and months ago! I’ll drink to that!  In the meantime, happy shopping!

  • Outfit:  WILD Fashion & Beauty – Daphne Outfit.  This brand describes itself as “the image of femininity, more realistic but still fantasized, tasteful and modern…It expresses forms of elegance and luxury with the Mediterranean flavour.”  I think this outfit epitomizes that statement.  Combining denim, lace, & sequins (yes, sequins!) could be either a dream or a nightmare… I’m thrilled to say I’m living the dream!  Includes a HUD with 10 options for the top — 5 with lace, 5 with just sequins — & 10 for the skirt — 5 with lace trim, 5 solid denim with 4 off-center buttons.  Sized for Slink HG/P, Belleza F/I/V, & Maitreya, this stunning little outfit is available EXCLUSIVELY at the March round of the Swank Event, March 7th – 29th.
