So a few days ago Sanura Snowpaw of *Dreams* asked on plurk for sayings she could turn into tattoos. I am happy to say one of the quotes I threw out there got selected.

She also made these really cool jeans that come in various colors.  They’re unisex (And if they are not well too bad I am wearing them anyways) and have musical notes on them. Which is very cool and a step away from the vast multitude of regular jeans you see flooding the grid.

The quote I suggested comes from Lao Tzu. For those of you who don’t know Lao Tzu was a philosopher in ancient China and is the central figure in the philosophy of Taoism. The quote reads as follows:

When I let go of what I am , I become what I might be.

Pretty simple to follow no?

Ah
We move like cagey tigers
We couldn’t get closer than this
The way we walk
The way we talk
The way we stalk
The way we kiss
We slip through the streets
While everyone sleeps
Getting bigger and sleeker
And wider and brighter
We bite and scratch and scream all night
Let’s go and throw
All the songs we know…

Into the sea
You and me
All these years and no one heard
I’ll show you in spring
It’s a treacherous thing
We missed you hissed the lovecats

So during my travels I’ve been checking out tattoo shops during my downtime. Usually it begins with “I’m bored. Let’s get some ink”. Below of some of the ones I have found.

She has always watched over me
She takes good care of me
She is such an integral part of me
That I forgot who I was
And I forgot she was there
For me

We have traveled this world for years
We have consoled each other’s fears
We dried each other’s tears
Yet always in doubt, and never in bed
Of we

With a fever, with a passion
Within anger or with compassion
In a rage, when distrustful
When she’s screaming or when she’s lustful
With the fever, with a passion
When in anger or in compassion
In a rage, when distrustful
When she’s screaming and when she’s lustful

Look! Fashion Bitches!!

It’s been awhile since I’ve been shopping in Second Life. Apparently there were some places I had not discovered yet. So here is a fashion post in which I show off what I got. Well at least some of it. Had I posted ALL of it at once some of you whiners would have been all “OMG this is too long to read!! Why have you offended my delicate internet sensibilities?”

Out of all the seasons we’re finally approaching one of my favorites. Autumn is by far the best season out of the year. People start baking more stuff, the colors begin to change, it’s not longer 90 billion degrees outside. Football season is underway, soon it’ll be Halloween and then El Día de los Muertos. Thankgiving will arrive and I’ll end up sleeping in my favorite chair after having a bit too much Guinness with Football on the television. But lately (and I so blame Iris and the rest of my fashionista friends for this) what I have been looking forward to the most are the clothes.

I like Fall Fashion because it seems like that is when the practical stuff comes out. None of this high fashion conceptual business but clothes actual human beings wear. So, I cruised over to Argrace to see what they had lined up so far. Even though I own most of the store Argrace has always been kind of hit or miss with me. Some people have issues with the no-mod hair however I actually like resize scripts so I’ve found it doesn’t bug me as much. During their early summer collection though they had this weird male button up shirt with an ascot that had me going “WTF?” though.

I actually came up with this look by sitting and drinking my coffee this morning going “I wonder if there is anything to this indie shit Iris keeps talking about?” and I found out apparently it involves patterns and earth tones which I find myself completely down for. Plus apparently they can wear nifty hats and as I love hats in RL (I have over 200) I find myself going over to the dark side of the force as it were.

Shiny Things still has some of the best shoes in Second Life. This is actually hard to do for guys because the guy shoe market looks like an AA meeting when NASCAR is in town.

When I bought the pants over at WMD I was actually skeptical at first. I was thinking “Plaid Jeans…..madness?” Thankfully I was wrong and I am beginning to see how these are easily going to become my favorite pair of jeans in Second Life for awhile. That is until I can find some with the crotch replaced with a disco ball texture (Phillip Linden I am looking at you).

As I was cycling through poses made by the lovely Dove Swanson from [LAP] I found myself wondering when, if ever are we going to get to the point where the avatar mesh will recognize itself and the fact something (like a prim) is there so our hands and hair  won’t go through it.
