Taking a break

I am taking a little time off from blogging. You see, sometimes I just haven't got anything to contribute. Nothing to say. But it's okay. I will be back, but for now, maybe go look at some pictures, or better yet, find a place to sleep where it is quiet, and sleep there. Oh and an even better idea is to reduce intellectual and emotional noise
until you arrive at the silence of yourself,
and listen to it.

Anima Persona

I surf from blog to blog, and without that, I don’t know how I would find interesting avatar clothes to keep in my virtual closet. The other day I visited ou la la mode, and saw a post from Elisabeth Villiers that inspired me so much, I had to go get the stuff. Trust me, it looks a WHOLE LOT better on her av than it does mine, but still, it was fun to get, and fun to take some pictures of.

Once again, a lot of this look is from women’s shops. I don’t know what it is lately, I just feel like it’s a challenge. Psychologically, maybe it’s a Jungian thing. The Jungian thing, sir. All I know is, you gotta go do what you desire to do. So just go do it. I normally document SLurls where I get stuff, but just go read Elisabeth’s post. What I have on that is uniquely part of my own look is well talked about already on this blog. So go click over to her place for a bit. She’s documented some cool stuff there, and she does it with flair, style and true panache—you will enjoy reading her blog. Elisabeth, please consider this post an homage to you!

Take caries!

Summer ain't over

Summer is not dead yet. That would be September 21. So go out and enjoy the season while it still exists. Hey, you should probably not even be in front of your computer right now. But if you want to stay and read the rest of this screed, feel free to continue.

There’s no better way to enjoy the summer in a nice baggy pair of shorts. So I went out and bought a pair of chick’s shorts. Yeah, that’s right, why not. Electrons are electrons, dude, time to get over any hangups about it, lol. These here ones are from NINIKO (came with a nice belt and also has a patterned lining in the legs), and so is the shirt. For whatever its worth, I got on women’s hair, from Maitreya, and a female tank top, from 141.

The glasses I’m wearing are from *D*. Normally you will find me in my Nea Ban Wayfarers, but these No. 22’s are quite nice—they come with a built-in clip on shade and lots of other options, too. Besides, I met the creator, MandyMandy, in her shop and I think she is really cool. Anyway, I am outta here for now, gonna go out and try to soak up a little more Vitamin D. Here’s where to find stuff:

Hair: Moon Charcoal - Maitreya.
Eyes: Evening Sky - Lano Ling.
Skin: Dust Neutral Black Beard - Fallen Gods.
Glasses: No. 22 - *D*.
Tattoo: Celtic Code - Devol at Le Look.
Shirt: Retro Blouse Open - NINIKO.
Tee Shirt: Tank Black - 141.
Taped fingers: SiniSytle.
Shorts: Holiday Pants - NINIKO.
Shoes: Star Black - Kenza.

The Public Option

So, how ya feeling about the abandonment of the public option in the health care reform debacle? The whole business is rather unhealthy, doncha think? If watching uninformed morons scream at each other at "town hall forums" doesn’t make you sick, more power to you.

I have gone on the record in an earlier post exactly where ol Wyatt comes down on the issue. See, back in aught five, I got laid off from a job I had worked at for 10 years. Poof. No health insurance. Oh, wait, I could have paid for Cobra, $1200 dollars a month. Yiffy. Hey. Don't worry. I am not gonna get all political on you right now. But personally, if having a public option means people who end up in similar situations can continue seeing the doctor of their choice, and get their insurance subsidized until they can get back on their feet, I am all for it. And if you are with me, I might also point out, don’t be mad at the insurance companies, okay? They are just doing what any for-profit, soulless entity would do. Buy off the competition, deny your claim, and reward the executive ranks with lush salaries. Yeeehahh!

Ok, here’s the “fashion” information in this post, for those of you who just crave it. I saw this white hoodie at a fellow blogger’s site, and thought, what the hey. I might enjoy wearing that. So here it is. Get on with it, my man. Get on with it. Style SLurls:

Hair: Moon Charcoal - Maitreya.
Eyes: Gold Topaz - Lano Ling.
Skin: Dust Neutral Black Beard - Fallen Gods.
Sunglasses: Wayfarer - Nea Ban.
Scarf: Crinkle Black - Muism.
Hoodie: Skelly Line White - TazzMania.
Jeans: Classic Indigo - Zaara.
Boots (Unseen): Oslo Black - Jeepers Creepers.

On a personal note

Recently a great little club in SL, where I would go to listen to all kinds of indie and alt music, spun by the very best DJs, among some really friendly and cool people, just went poof. The owners, who had been partnered, had a falling out and went their separate ways. Once again, SL ends up so very much like RL.

I have said before in an earlier post that I choose not to take a partner in SL. It doesn’t mean I look down on those who do. It’s just something I choose; it’s my way. I have made many friends in SL and I cherish each friendship I have, in SL and RL. My own personal take is that the best part of ANY relationship is friendship. All you need in life is one true friend, because you never EVER lose a true friend. With that, I leave you this.

Style SLurls:

Hair: Moon Charcoal - Maitreya.
Eyes: Gold Topaz - Lano Ling.
Skin: Dust Neutral Black Beard - Fallen Gods.
Sunglasses: Wayfarer - Nea Ban.
Scarf: Crinkle Black - Muism.
Tattoo: Celtic Code - Devol at Le Look.
Shirt: Tear Off Black - SG at Le Look.
Hoodie: maki2 black long - Sey.
Jeans: Classic Indigo - Zaara.
Boots (Unseen): Oslo Black - Jeepers Creepers.

Tryin to get over

Did you see Superfly? Some critics decry it as a glorification of the drug subculture, but hey, let em rant. Any film with a soundtrack by Curtis Mayfield is MORE than okay in my book. And let’s face it, Youngblood Priest was baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad.


So when it comes to kickin it baaaad, you gotta dig down deep in your soul. You gotta not only look the look, you gotta feel it. In the darkest of night, with the moon shining bright, there’s a set going strong. The man of the hour has an air of great power, don’t you know it, baby? The game he plays, he plays for keeps.




Oh Superfly, you’re gonna make your fortune by and by. But if you lose, don’t ask no questions why. The only game you know is do or die.

Procure stuff here:

Hair: Moon Charcoal - Maitreya. Idea for hair thanks to Theo, on his blog.
Eyes: Evening Sky - Lano Ling.
Skin: Flawless Ashan DT - Corrupted Innocence.
Sunglasses: Wayfarer - Nea Ban.
Scarf: Crinkle Bronze - Muism.
Tattoo: Slit my wrists it will taste delicious - H&V.
Coat: TLC Mid Length Black - Muism.
Shirt: Deep V Tee/Dusty - Muism.
Pants: LB Gold.Brown - Muism.
Belt: Coin, Dark Brown - Maitreya.
Boots: Ankle Brown - Muism.
Cigar: Black Thong 4.2 Ring10 - Foxy’s.

Relax (Don’t Do It)

One of my all time favorite things to do is relax. If it’s not number one on my list, it’s gotta be way up there. And to really do it well, you might consider a good cigar.


I would just as soon kick around the sims, smoking a fine full-flavored Maduro and wearing clothes that just make me feel all comfy inside than do anything else, quite frankly. And the clothes thing…it really is just a hobby of mine, by no means a profession, now that I am unfettered and alive--nobody calling me up for favors, no one’s future to decide. Like anybody else, I get inspired. In this case, it came from one maechi Pizzicato, from a picture I saw here, as well as her blog post here. I took what I saw her wearing, and blended it with stuff already in my virtual footlocker. There are like a jillion bloggers out there, passionately documenting some really interesting finds. Some have great stories to tell. Some, like me, just ramble and drift. It’s a great big beautiful online world full of all manner of individuals who have something to share, like it or not. So here’s to sharing, y’all. In the meantime, go check out maechi and her blog. Tell her Wyatt sent you, with thanks.

Hair: Solid Wave Amber Brown - Find Ash.
Eyes: CI Hazel - Corrupted Innocence.
Skin: Flawless Ashan DT - Corrupted Innocence.
Sunglasses: Wayfarer - Nea Ban.
Taped fingers: SiniSytle.

Belt: Coin, Dark Brown - Maitreya.
Shoes: Star Black Used - Kenza.
