I have always loved buying different journals or loggers in RL, so when I saw this journal with a typing over ride at Scribble I didn't even hesitate to buy it. I don't always put my thoughts and feelings out for everyone to see, blogging in the SL community is a very different release for me personally. However, I love having a place to let out those thoughts that other wise would just be rattling around in my mind until I go insane with trying to deal with them. From poetry and prose to short stories, taking pen to paper is an amazing release. Nope, not typing, actual pen to paper! Old fashioned, I know, imagine that.

Visible through the above and below image, when you type (make sure your typing animation is set on through preferences and the advanced debug menu) you open up the journal and start to write. You have the option of buying a book with a certain image on the inside, or the fat pack with all of their different choices. I went with the fat pack, their prices are so reasonable trust me, you won't be able to resist their bundles! I have a nice thick folder full of Scribble goodies to share over the next few weeks, so if you haven't taken a moment to go visit them you really should! Absolutely adorable items, play things, the studio I previously blogged, just go already!

The first and last image in this entry also include another fun pose piece that I picked up a few weeks ago from CnS. This table has single poses as well as couple *cough* poses. Will be using it as a featured piece soon as well, I have fallen in love with props in Second Life! Dare I say it, I have set aside some of my L's from shopping for clothing for toys and pose pieces like these now. However, the outfit I put together today needs mention of course! The shirt, pants, shoes and necklace are all from [Coquette.], the belt from Maitreya and the hair is from Fri.Day (who will be having a sale soon, keep an eye out for that).

Thats really about it for SLness lately. I had a fabulous 'weekend' the last couple of days with Sands, which would be why I didn't really get a chance to get a blog post out until today. I did manage to sneak in and get another picture done, showing off the new Belleza skin he got me. I am so picky about skins that I wandered around in a demo skin of theirs for a week before he said oh here, and just got me the fat pack. Yes, the fat pack of a skin...I never do that! Ever! I couldn't say thank you enough, I know its a small thing really but ooo I do love the skins. Haven't really had a lot of online time this week and his weekend will be filled with family and RL activities, so bloggage may be quiet again for a couple of days. Hopefully some of you will visit the mentioned stores and get a few things, SL is far more than just clothing and accessories...get out there and have some fun this weekend!! I know I will be, and I can't wait!

...this is how it ended up.

Grand Illusion...
...behind the mask!

Grand Illusion, to me, is a great many things. A place to share my adventures within the grandest illusion I know, Second Life. Exploration, friends and loved ones and best of all, fashion and the addiction that is, shopping! I often spend most of my time in SL working these days, but I still find time for the fashion, for decorating and landscaping and the pure obsessive nature of it all.
