GI 4-2-10

So, a year has passed. A lot has changed in the year since I started seeing Sands, today being an exact year from our first 'date' and all. Most people didn't expect that we would come close to lasting long enough for me to make this kind of post, but I like surprising people. Including myself! I say that because not many can handle someone with my personality for this long, the poor guy. In the last year friends have come and gone, but the truest remain still and I am happier than I have been in a long time. They take me at my lowest, and embrace life with me at my highest. Even better, they linger and survive with me through everything in between. The above picture seemed to hold an aura of strength to me, it fits right now as I hold onto my strength to get through the coming months. I'm always happy to see spring designs pop up in my update window for designers and this outfit by Apple May is amazing! Though you are unable to see them, the bottom of this is a pair of cute full shorts, and the details on the corset of the top is fabulous!

Untouchable...

Now this picture? This is the first picture I did of Sands and I, just under a year ago. While we don't play SL together much, he just about never logs in, we do still spend countless hours together playing EQ2 and such. SL will always hold a special place for me, when it comes to *us*, since it's where we met, courted, fell in love... SL is a powerful place, if you give in to the right powers that is. I still hope that everyone finds this kind of love, devotion, and pure friendship, that we have found and held onto...all year long. I could say I love him, and blather on about the last year but, he knows and, he was there. Today is just a bit of a celebration for us, but I swear that year just flew by.

Wishing everyone the happiest of holidays, and may your spring be filled with a fresh new world, SL or otherwise!

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.
