My last blog for the week, I am relived.

I think I am pumping out so many blogs to compensate for when I slow down severely when I go back to work.

So I will do as many as I can and then release every 2-3 days and just delete the event locations and stuff and hope the designer built the vendor in the in-world store.

Because yeah ... 40 something sponsors and two jobs and school resuming ... yeah ... blogging gonna be hella backburnered.

Anyway, gonna wrap up the chatter, so go ahead and keep reading below to get the details.

Garden Party

Why do people feel like they're able to call you and monopolize your time because they're bored or feel like conversing?

How do you know the person you're calling is doing absolutely nothing and is staring at the wall and dying to hear your voice?

Why does someone think they have the right to hold you hostage on the phone?

Since the introduction of text messaging when I was 16 (or my first cell phone anyway), I have stopped enjoying communicating via phone (unless it's very important, of course), and prefer to communicate via text messaging.

It's gives me less queasiness when I get a text ... I did turn off sound however, because I hate the sound of my phone ringing in the quiet, and even the vibration is infuriating, but it's a text and I can get to it when I am good and ready versus dropping everything I am doing to take your call and talk about absolutely nothing.

If it were up to me, I wouldn't hear from anyone at anytime ... shutting everyone out 24/7 seems like heaven. 

If only I could experience that.

Anyway, check the details below to get the credits for what I am wearing in my image.

It's Getting Hot in Here

... I am getting so hot, I'm gonna take my clothes off!

I woke from a nap so I could do this blog post.

At this time, I am blogging for fun and not obligation.

When I return to work, I am beyond screwed with all these sponsors I've gained during quarantine that I'll no longer have time to blog for.

I'll cross that bridge next month when that issue comes.

Anyway, this month makes a year since I have seen the one person who I can't talk about without upsetting other people so he's been pretty present on my mind.

We used to have stupid words we used between each other that I vow not to use with anyone else.

They were born between us and they died with us. 

Anyway, happy one year anniversary to you, sir and I hope you're safe while the world burns. 

Sigh.

K, blog time.

Summer Babes

Man, nothing chafes my ass more than a rejection for a blog post.

I know designers spend a lot of time creating, but I spent about 5 or so hours per blog.

That is about as long as it takes to rig and stuff, so I read.

And so when I spend half my day doing a blog for free (I delete 90% of items I blog) and it gets rejected, it is a slap in the face. 

I can see if the product wasn't displayed well enough, but recently, that wasn't the case.

So, yeah ... ass hurt.

I won't elaborate, but I'll say it again, it's BS.

Ok, well let's see how many times this one gets rejected.

For now, keep reading to get the details.

Girl Boss

OH MY GOD! SLFB has been such a shit show!

So as everyone knows, there is been movement on the African American front, protests and our voices are finally being heard and some changes finally being made.

But then, like all causes, there are people who are xtreme. 

I ran into a few yesterday. 

Some idiots I've never heard of before who all came to my post about wearing black skins if you're not black in Second Life and trying to gang up on me, but I filtered them fools out.

Most African American's in SL don't give a shit, but some are opposed to anyone who is not black in RL wearing black skins in Second Life.

They're comparing it to black face.

You read that right. BLACK FACE.

Okay, blackface is really offensive and a very insensitive thing that goes wayyyy back (and not too distantly in the past, too) when white people would portray blacks on TV/Movies/Plays and it was meant to be comical but it was meant to be a mockery of African Americans.

Dark face paint, bright red, ooga booga lips, just racist and insulting.

Now a handful of idiots in SL are equating THAT to a non black wearing a black skin in SL.

Some people really need a fucking reality check.

This is Second Life first of all, and you can do and be whatever you want as long as it doesn't involve criminal activities.

For the extremist on SLFB who are policing those who are non black but choose to be black in SL ... well, to me they're diluting the message we as black people are trying to get across. 

And for the people who have never posted a pro-black article or message on their FB and all the sudden are on the BLM bandwagon to the xtreme, we see though your act, you're only an opportunist and it's as clear as day ... looking at you, Kalista Sincario.

None of those extremeists had a leg to stand on, no defense and nothing but insults and tagging other sick-minded people to help their lost cause.

I'm grateful SL has a block button <3

Whew, sorry for the long ass rant, but again, it's a blog, what do you do if you're not writing?

Welp, on to the Second Life fun, check out the list of goodies worn below:

Work Flow

My SL Partner TPed on me when I was blogging this and she said "wow, you look great. You look like you're ready for an interview."

Thank you! 

Maybe I can take some tips when ever I start the job hunt in the future.

A close friend of mine quit his job after 15 years because of the state of his mental health when he was at work.

While the thought is terrifying, I can respect someone for protecting their mental health from a jonw here they're unappreciated. 

He has everything in the world in his favor so I know he will be successful and happier with his future pursuits.

Now, if I was into role-play, I would be hitting up some job interviews ... but since I'm not, I'm just gonna take this off and go dress for my next blog!

.Slumber.

Just found out I am returning to work next month, sometime in July.

I am depressed about this, even tho I knew it was coming.

That's why I started eating low carb again to prepare for my return, I ain't showing up to the office with all this Covid-20 weight!

So I have been at it about 2 weeks, I see no improvements but I also didn't weigh myself because I didn't want to have to kill myself after seeing the high ass number on the scale.

So, I can only base it on whether my clothes fit well again or not.

It ain't easy, eating low carb, I have tons of popcorn and chocolate in the pantry, calling out to me.

Looking forward to Friday, my cheat day.

Pray for me.

And while you're praying, check out the details below for the blog image today :)

The Girl U Like

Man, it's been such a shit show with this whole Black Lives Matter and All Lives Matter issue.

I have really been seeing the ugly in people ... in people I didn't expect to see it in, at that.

The world is changing, the US is angry ... people of color are angry because they want to stop dying because they're black and the majority (Caucasians) are trying to make it about them, make themselves the victim or deflect. 

Not all, of course. But all deflection and anger at POC's rage is from mostly white.

I've seen so much bullying from both sides, people threatening to kill themselves, etc.

It's a stressful time and I see this going on long term and worsening.

I am not personally affected yet ... and I am not looking forward to it when I am.

It's the end of the world, I swear.

Anyway ... just writing my thoughts down, I'll get to the blogging part now.

Girl Power

Yay I was able to fit in a blog before my weekend began.

Too bad I just had a Black Lives Matter outfit dropped on me, so I guess that means no break for me, LOL.

I am not done blogging for the week like I thought I was because now I have to represent.

Anyway, I am working right now, so not much dialogue today.

Check ya on my next post, tho :)

.Booties.

Listening to my friend assure her friend on voice that she doesn't have Corona Virus.

LOL, it's funny to listen to a whole conversation while I do my blog.

I can't tell if the person that she's talking to is her child or a roommate.

But, either way it's funny. I think it's her daughter though.

I'll ask when they stop talking, but I think it's her teenage daughter.

They have a funny relationship. I could never have that kind of relationship with my mother.

Good for them.

Anyway, check out the blog below :)

Yin & Yang

I just want to give a shout out to the flexible and considerate sponsors who forgive you for falling short of your obligations!

I want to recognize the sponsors who add LMs to their posts or Blogger Boxes to make land-marking/URL easier to obtain while crediting.

I want to give props to sponsors who allow you to take more than one item at a time, because one item just isn't enough sometimes.

Anyway, I love these outfits and I hope you do, too.

Keep reading below to find the details :)

An LGBTQ Ally

I dedicate this blog to my best friend, my love, my brother and my soulmate, Daniel.

We met when I was 12 and have grown up together for the last 23 years. 

I've (sometimes at a distance) watched him mature with a wisdom beyond his years, become a first time home-owner, finish school, get married and start a beautiful family.

I know his life isn't perfect, but to me, it's the closest thing to perfection.

In addition to all of his accomplishments as a husband, father and in his career, he represents the beauty of the GLBTQ community and because of him, I am a fierce ally and defender.

No man is worthy of me if he cannot accept my bestfriend's marriage/family because I am a package deal.

Anyway, before I start getting emotional, I am gonna wrap it up, but I wanted everyone to know about my beautiful best friend <3 who is GLBTQ thus, makes me apart of the community as well.

#Pride

Owner of a Lonely Heart

Hey guys, I have a visitor so I can't really write what I want to, but I will on tomorrow's blog.

I don't want to keep them waiting, watching Bob's Burgers while I do a blog.

So enjoy my silence and keep reading to get the details :)

The Revolution

A Revolution, that is what is happening across the world.

People's eyes are being opened and while we are meeting resistance from the color people hating masses, we have even more support than ever before.

Allies standing with us, protesting with us and demanding change for Kings and Queen's and their beautiful Black Lives.

Even though I am rejected from both halves that make me whole, I stand with my brother's and sisters, and I will always support the BLM Movement.

You finally hear us America, now get ready for our Revolution!

(Whoop whoop!)

Dream Drop

My last blog for the week!

I do not blog on the weekends so I bust this one out real fast.

I can't really concentrate on writing any text right now because my visitor is telling me about the DC Universe and making me watch Wonder Woman trailers soooo ... so, I am gonna shut up now, and y'all keep reading below for details.

Dream Sickle

I don't know how I ended up in a very dark area last night online.

Wait, yes I do.

I was on FB and a Buzzfeed article popped up about movies you could only watch once.

All the movies on the list were a snooze fest.

So I dug though the comments and THAT'S when I struck oil.

People were listing movies like "Human Centipede" and "Martyrs" which I believe are definitely a one time thing.

Then I kept seeing a tiny portion of commentators who kept mentioning titles called "120 Days of Sodom" and "A Serbian Film" my curiosity took me to Google.

I spent several hours digging up reviews and information about these two titles, and I refuse to mention the content in these movies but let me just say, I officially believe in censorship now and that this world is a disgusting place.

I was shaken until this morning, and even cried a little, simply due to my imagination of what I read about the content of the movies.

I will go to my grave never viewing such atrocities.

Anyway ... I guess I shouldn't have mentioned them here, because I certainly shouldn't be piquing anyone's interest. 

It makes me apart of the problem.

Well, here I am, lost in my thoughts ... when I should be discussing SL content ... so without further discussion, go ahead and keep reading below to get the details of the blog image.

Si Colore

This post feels kinda like summer.

Very warm colors.

I try to use colors and not my favorite color black all the time.

I have a 24 hour deadline for my next post though, so I have to wrap this one up.

Keep reading to get the details :)
