#218 Going to the Chappel

Hello everyone!! 

I am going to break away from the norm and just share a happy occasion. 

On March 7th I was able to be a part of a wedding.  My Second Life daughter "took the plunge" and  was married at 7pm SLT.  

As with all weddings it was filled with calamity and chaos.  I find that to be the very best part of any wedding.  I feel that if you have a perfect wedding in any life, your marriage will certainly fail.

If you can pantomime a lifetimes worth of heart-attack into one very special day, then you have essentially nailed down the entire marriage.  Because!! as we all know...Love is Blind, but Marriage is a REAL Eye-Opener.

March 7, 2015  Wedding of McGee Waddington  to Julianna Ireto
(my very favorite people in this strange world we love)

The Venue was planned by myself, in collaboration with Julianna Ireto (the bride) and a dear friend Cal Prefect.  The venue developed into exactly what we all envisioned...an Eden.

The wedding was in the Barn.  The small reception in the Atrium (pictured above) Photo Credits to :  Forestwitch Jinx (<--thank you...we love these photos)

We had the very best time. In this beautiful garden.  I love this Wedding Barn from  Trompe Loeil.  

I dont have a style card for the bride, but if you see something here you "just have to have!!" IM me in SecondLife or on FB.  I am always happy to help a reader.

Cutting the cake....seriously...how cute is this!!!!?

So proud of this girl.

Thanks for letting me banter on and on!!

#215 Pajama Party with Sammy

I've been so busy lately, that finding the time to post has been difficult.

However, there has been no shortage of game time, I've just been distracted.  You guys know how that goes.....

  Over the next few days, l intend to show you some of the pictures l have shot most recently.

Until a few weeks ago, l had never really encountered an SL child.

As a very foreign concept, l simply avoided that which l did not understand.  Well let me be the first to say, that SL kids are incredibly fun!  This one in particular.  She leaves me laughing behind the keyboard!

丂αmmყ ℭнαρρȼℓℓ (samarra.haustraun)

Sammy is made up of all the fun things in second life...giggles, typos, bows, flowers, jellybeans, cookies...you name it!  She has this uncanny ability to grab your heart because she is so adorable.

Sammy decided that she wanted the new release from {Lil Big Me}Payton Jammies.  So l took her to the store and we got it so she could have some new "jammies".   Then she told me we were having a party...so l grabbed my  Severed Garden **GoodMorning* pajamas in sky...and tried to match the 

un-matchable.

#214 Catfishing??!

Very recently l crawled out from under my rock and learned about a term that is not only bothersome, it just flat out stinks!!

According to the Urban Dictionary,

Catfishing ls: 

The phenomenon of internet predators that fabricate online identities and entire social circles to trick people into emotional/romantic relationships (over a long period of time).

Possible motivations: revenge, loneliness, curiosity, boredom
The term catfishing was inspired by the 2010 documentary "Catfish."

 lt is my hope that some of you never knew this until reading this. However, l am almost certain that to the majority of you this is not something new.

And what better platform to vet a shenanigan like Catfishing?  Welcome to Second Life!!!

Let's see a show of hands...how many of you have been duped, fooled, made to feel so important..so loved...so needed...so wanted..by another and then :

You are NOT ALONE!!

 http://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/teen-angst/201302/catfishing-hook-line-and-sinker

But here's the thing: it's not just teens...it's adults as well.

On some level Second Life is just walking a tight-rope on the line.

l'm not here to tell you how to run your Second Life, but look at it from both sides and make sure that you are not the one Catfishing or being Catfished.

There are serious legalities involved with being on the wrong end of this. 

Some involve high fines and criminal charges. 

l play my SL with integrity and l  try to keep it as real as possible without jeapordizing my actual life.  

lf you feel like you're being played for a fool, you probably are.

My advice is THROW lT BACK!!

#213 Chandelier

Party girls don't get hurt

Can't feel anything, when will I learn

I push it down, push it down

I'm the one "for a good time call"

Phone's blowin' up, they're ringin' my doorbell

I feel the love, I feel the love

1,2,3 1,2,3 drink

1,2,3 1,2,3 drink

1,2,3 1,2,3 drink

Throw them back, till I lose count

-----------

I'm gonna swing from the chandelier, from the chandelier

I'm gonna live like tomorrow doesn't exist

Like it doesn't exist

I'm gonna fly like a bird through the night, feel my tears as they dry

I'm gonna swing from the chandelier, from the chandelier

And I'm holding on for dear life, won't look down won't open my eyes

Keep my glass full until morning light, 'cause I'm just holding on for tonight

Help me, I'm holding on for dear life, won't look down won't open my eyes

Keep my glass full until morning light, 'cause I'm just holding on for tonight

On for tonight

Sun is up, I'm a mess

Gotta get out now, gotta run from this

Here comes the shame, here comes the shame

1,2,3 1,2,3 drink

1,2,3 1,2,3 drink

1,2,3 1,2,3 drink

Throw them back till I lose count

---------------

I'm gonna swing from the chandelier, from the chandelier

I'm gonna live like tomorrow doesn't exist

Like it doesn't exist

I'm gonna fly like a bird through the night, feel my tears as they dry

I'm gonna swing from the chandelier, from the chandelier

And I'm holding on for dear life, won't look down won't open my eyes

Keep my glass full until morning light, 'cause I'm just holding on for tonight

Help me, I'm holding on for dear life, won't look down won't open my eyes

Keep my glass full until morning light, 'cause I'm just holding on for tonight

On for tonight

On for tonight

Cause i'm just holding on for tonight

No, i'm just holding on for tonight

On for tonight

On for tonight

Cause i'm just holding on for tonight

Cause i'm just holding on for tonight

No, i'm just holding on for tonight

On for tonight

On for tonight
