Welcome to the Wild (wild) West!

Howdy Partner, it’s time to hop on over to Rock your Rack 2025 for all the shopping, Music, Food, Dance, Wrestling, Resort Partner, and Art fun you can rustle up! I’m wearing Manikin’s limited edition Pavlova dress to kick off the festivities. Dress it up with heels for glam or down with boots for boho chic—it’s your call! The event closes at 11:59 pm SLT on Sunday, October 5, 2025.

One of the things I love about Manikin is it included the perfect panties to wear!

Ooh, and Luna’s RYR exclusive Western Boho nails perfectly complement my outfit. See below for other patterns!

So pretty! 🥰

We’ve already done it in my head…

Drowning in the Blue Nile
He sent me ‘Downtown Lights’
I hadn’t heard it in a while
My boredom’s bone deep
This cage was once just fine
Am I allowed to cry?

You can’t pinch me

I was saving Ulyssia by Luna Chelsea for March 17. Not only is this jumpsuit hot, but one of the color options was dark green, which I believe is perfect to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day. It’s also unmistakably green, so I’m not getting pinched tonight!

Me and Karma Vibe Like THAT…

I’ve been in SL for a little over 14 years. Damn. When I first started I was in my early 20’s and now I’m in my 30’s. Crazy. The lure of SL is still so appealing to me but for very different reasons now that I’m older. In the beginning, I toyed with modeling. I moved on to blogging, but my blogging was sporadic. It depended on my mood and what music I was listening to at the time, which was a LOT of Taylor Swift. Sorry, not sorry dear reader. My goal this year is to blog more often, return to the diary style (with music, duh), and find new designers and pose creators. After all, it’s why I’m still here.

Ask me what I learned from all those years
Ask me what I earned from all those tears
Ask me why so many fade, but I’m still here
(I’m still, I’m still here)

‘Cause karma is the thunder
Rattling your ground
Karma’s on your scent like a bounty hunter
Karma’s gonna track you down
Step by step from town to town
Sweet like justice, karma is a queen
Karma takes all my friends to the summit
Karma is the guy on the screen
Coming straight home to me

‘Cause karma is my boyfriend (karma is my boyfriend)
Karma is a god
Karma is the breeze in my hair on the weekend (weekend)
Karma’s a relaxing thought
Aren’t you envious that for you it’s not?
Sweet like honey, karma is a cat
Purring in my lap ’cause it loves me
Flexing like a goddamn acrobat
Me and karma vibe like that

Karma is my boyfriend
Karma is a god

Karma’s a relaxing thought
