I’m still on a break from SL but, as always, a good sale has the power to suck me back in. Atomic Kitty is having a 50% sale on all gift cards and it’s not to be missed. They have some of the cutest Neko tails and ears in SL. So here’s my Atomic Kitty inspired look of the day. Also, if you haven’t already checked out AET‘s eyes, you really, really should. They are little works of art. :D

I’ve been playing the new Wrath of the Lich King expansion since I picked my Collector’s Edition (squeee!!) up on Thursday and it’s amazing. Absolutely awesome. It’s no secret I <3 WoW but I’m just floored at how beautifully rendered it is. The zones are quite large and the way they look adds to this massive feeling you get riding through them. Sure, I’m still only level 70 while there are already a few level 80s running around on my server.. but I’m taking my time to explore and just really immerse myself into the game. There’s a decidedly darker feeling in this expansion pack as you make your way through the start areas.. sure there are the usual silly things but I like this slightly less fantasy take on the game. I actually was really taken aback at how emotional I felt doing some of the quests in the Howling Fjord. So far my favorite zone is definitely Crystalsong Forest. It is just stunning and the music is so beautiful. I could spend all day sitting at Windrunner’s Overlook staring into the forest. It’s geeky, but I really felt calm and serene here…. even though I was chased by every mob in the general area lol. :P
This one I filtered.
I want these trees in SL.
I’m mourning the loss of my Retribution Paladin to the the mighty Blizzard nerf bat. /cry I haven’t really loved the Paladin class much at all in the past but I resolved to get her to 70 and it was an uphill battle the whole way. I was Ret for a good bit of the time I was leveling before speccing Protection which made me a decent tank in a pinch. I actually like Pally tanks quite a bit as a healer because I can bubble them. But because my other toons received far more love from me my Pally has never had the best gear so I typically would tank with my Druid. Anyways, long story short, I was just pwning face with my Paladin after I specced Ret again and it was so fun to actually do some serious DPS, even if I was only in a smattering of blues mixed with a few welfare epics. So I am in a deep melancholy over these nerfs. I knew they were coming, but omfg, the nerf to Divine Storm, give me a break!! This is going to make leveling to 80 an absolute pain. I am a sad panda today.
So as a farewell to my dead Paladin.. I made my version of a Paladin in SL. Just in an effort to keep this QQ post somewhat SL related.. and it gave me an excuse to wear this badass outfit from BareRose and awesome horns from Illusions. Yeah, I know, I don’t look like any Paladin in WoW but this is what I wish my Paladin looked like. :P I hope the outfit from BareRose comes out in more colors, it just might be my favorite outfit from there. Oh, I also want to mention the sword, it’s from Tekeli-li which, imho, makes the absolute best weaponry in SL. They are unscripted but I’m not doing epic battle so that’s fine by me. And the prices are absolutely insanely low, especially for the incredible detail, color change options and beauty that you receive. I should also mention that their customer service is top notch. I recently purchased a halbard from OnRez and Tekelili sent me a message letting me know the items were for sale in the shop and promptly refunded me the difference! That is just too cool and so above and beyond the call of duty. :D

I decided to be a Druid today…. mostly inspired by the AWESOME new horns Siyu Suen of Illusions released the other day. I had a hard time deciding which ones to pick up and I’m sure I’ll be back again. I have a thing for horns and I’ve usually paired them up with kind of a darker look but today I decided to go for a more woodland inspired thing. But I am terrible at writing sometimes so I’ll let the pictures do the talking. At the bottom of the post I have a better picture of the horns and all the options they come with! :D

I was in a pretty major funk today. One of my WoW pals moved out of the country today and probably will no longer be able to play which really, really sucks but hopefully he’ll be joining me in Second Life soon! But before he left we started feverishly working on the new achievements thing that came out in the last patch. After mass hemorrhaging of gold and rune cloth I managed to come away with the Ambassador title and the Leading the Calvary achievement which netted me the Albino Drake which is a pretty sick looking mount. :D So even though I was in a crappy mood, that lifted my spirits a little. And omfg, wtb Headless Horseman’s Mount! Three days worth of farming and NOTHING. *le sigh*
I’m doing a fashiony post just because. I thought I’d try a more mainstream look for a change of pace. It was a bit of challenge to myself to prove that a super pale goth skin and white hair can look chic. Maybe it’s really more my idea of chic but whatever. I am really sad that Truth no longer offers hair in white/silver. Truth hair is some of my favorite hair in SL and this really bums me out. The closest color is Ivory and I pretty much hate it. It’s too yellow, too platinum blonde. Bleh. And it really just doesn’t look good against my skintone. At least I stocked up before they were all re-textured. :( On an unrelated note, I did a fresh install of SL and that fixed all of my glow problems!! Yay! The backdrop I’m using in this picture has glow and shine on it and no weird ghosts! :D Hooray!

I’ve been bleh lately. Kinda uninspired, bored, and just meh for no good reason really. On another topic, nearly all my snapshots lately are being effed up by that glow ghost blur thing so I haven’t really felt like having to photoshop the living daylights out of every snap. Anyways, this picture turned out pretty okay.. though now I’m annoyed by the hair/hand business but I didn’t notice it until I uploaded it to Flickr and now I’m too lazy to go back and fix it. Maybe I’ll vector it later on, that might look cool. Well I’m rambling now.. bye!

I’d venture to say everyday in SL is a bit like Halloween for me.. I throw on a new costume pretty much every time I log in. :D But Halloween gave me an excuse to make some dark and creepy skins and I know, self pimpage is so tacky, but I <3 the way they turned out so there. And yes, I’m especially fond of these particular poses from Imperial Elegance because they suit my ideas so well.. if you couldn’t tell from the way I only used a few different poses. :P I also couldn’t decide between with or without the blindfold so I did both.
I waited for you.

I could probably condense most of my “fashion” posts into “I <3 everything my avatar wears.” I just don’t see the point in talking about fashion that I think sucks. So chances are good, if I wear it, I love it.
1. Zaara jeans are my new favorite jeans. I splurged on the fat pack and it was worth every linden.
2. AlterEgoTrip Svenska has released a whole slew of gorgeous eyes, go have a look!
3. I have a crush on Noam Sprocket and this belt he made.
4. I wear arm warmers in SL because if I went out in arm warmers where I live I’d be carted away to the loony bin. Which, really, would be for my own good.
5. ~momo~ has the most absolutely adorable cheery, colorful clothes out there. <3
In other news I’m still fiddling around with updating my subscriber kisok. I’m pretty psyched that this new update included the ability to give a gift to new subscribers. I’m crossing my fingers this will help cut down on the 1% of people who go all ape shit when they miss out on a freebie. And that in turn will help cut down on how often I curse at my computer. Everybody wins!
