I really haven’t been on sl the past few days. Instead I’ve been doing things like sleeping and exercising and cooking and knitting–“normal” people things. Ok maybe knitting isn’t so normal and maybe I should have taken up smoking instead of spending so much on yarn, but…I’m getting off-topic aren’t I?

These are the ripped skinny jeans from Atomic. <3. The top's from Atomic too–it was up for project themeory last week, but since Ivy just put the stumblebum item up, I'm pretty sure it's gone. I should have blogged it sooner, right? You have noooo idea how many comments I got on my cleavage. Good thing I didn't wear a cleavage enhancer. Sheesh! I won't lie, despite the unnecessary attention (or sometimes, necessary), I love this top. It's adorable and sexy and came in great colors. Hopefully, like the jeans, it'll get released as a regular item.

Shoe fair is coming….I'm practically counting down the minutes. One can never have too many shoes. Or hair..can't have enough of that, either.

Yes, I’m out of the plastik skin I’ve been wearing–for now. I know I’ll slip back into it. It’s calling me as we speak. But, I do like this skin I got from L.Fauna. I never fell into the craze when these skins first came out. They were beautiful, but too soft compared to the curio skins I’ve always worn and adored. However, I bought one the other week and liked it so much that when L.Fauna had her anniversary sale last week, I had to go back and get another. One thing I love about these skins…the lipstick is tintable. Talk about versatility, right?

So the outfit is a bit…what’s the word? Oh, black. Yeah. I’m morose morbid this week. With everything I’m going through in rl lately, I’m starting to get the feeling that death is peaking around every corner just waiting for the inevitable. Is it better to have love and lost than to never have loved at all–and then just die? Good question. I’ll have to ponder. For some reason the wry smile on my avi just makes this all so much more amusing.

Finally got around to going to the sale at Fri.day. Worth the lag to get in there and grab a few things. There’s even new hair on sale, and it’s fantastic. Don’t you agree? I always go for the banged version, but there’s also one without. With the sale, you can buy the fatpack and not feel guilty!! And pick up some tees…and jackets…and jeans.

Oh and have you seen these new heels? That’s right…these heels. The new ones from Maitreya Gold. I’m dying. I want them in every color. The ankle piece is color changing, with plenty of options! They’re simple, elegant, and so damn easy to wear.

Still wondering why I have 32k in my inventory Atom? Lol. Tonight my friend Atomic made me pull out the calculator and actually try to figure out how many items on average I’ve bought each day I’ve been on sl. We’ve figured it’s somewhere between six and nine. I think I need to replace this addiction with something more constructive like alcohol. Though honestly…alcohol is more expensive. And I love my liver….it’s been very good to me.
