Pimpin Style

I would have to say, not having a working PC at home has been an interesting experience, still in the end it finally arrived... and two weeks early so for that I'm grateful. Very interesting to see how far IT has infected all aspects of your life, especially when you don't have it!

I've actually had this outfit for a while, but courtesy of my old laptop I couldn't show it until now! It comes from the same team that created the Science Fiction Tuxedo I featured in my last post a few weeks back . It does includes a few extra options I've not shown including a ripped tee and a bunch of chains you can wear on your thighs, arms and torso... however as soon as I saw it knew it would right at home down at the crack den RP Sim...

Steam's Style:
Sunglasses - Kumaki Glasses Style: Virgo
Goatee -  sacred: Facial hair goatee v2
Outfit -  EGO&GB: Fashion Victim
Tattoo - Wicked tattoo: Devotion
Boots - Duh!: Engineer Boots
Pose - Embody

So until next time (which will be pretty soon)...

She Ripped My Heart Out - Part IX: Wishful Thinking

Time ticked on and my mind continually wandered. At night, which was always the worst I would dream of her curves, her lying body close to mine. I remembered the look in her eyes and the secret smiles we shared. I was still completely and absolutely hers, there was no other for me!

Busted!

I guess my mind is wandering at the moment and looking forward to the 3 weeks in IndoChina I've got booked in January - this has to be the reason I chose nightlife pictures from Patpong Road... please tell me I'm right?

She Ripped My Heart Out - Part VIII: The Next Call

I knew it would take time, apparently she had feelings too (who knew right!). The next time I rang I sure did learn all about them. By the time the call was over, I knew with 100% certainty how she felt, well, I think I remembered all about it for at least for the next 15 minutes...

Tobacco

I think now it's safe to assume that I am transferring my RL desire for tobacco into SL. I am a reformed smoker, so does that make it [or me] worse? Anyway, in case you've not been down to PHILO lately, they've just released this great leather jacket and shirt which I've thrown on today to help keep those impending winter chills at bay! It's pretty cool (or hot... whichever is the right descriptor here) and nicely textured. I also threw on the Thanksgiving gift skin from Akeruka which I thought added more of an urban appeal.


It's still Movember remember!

She Ripped My Heart Out - Part VII: Humble Pie

I've never been very good at eating humble pie, it just always leaves a nasty after taste. In the end I knew I had to do something, so on the way home from work one day I spied a public phone, my cell had a flat battery so I parked up and dialed her and waited.... my heart was thumping, my mouth was dry, the expectation was killing me.... but what the hell was that noise behind me?

Oil on Canvas

I found out yesterday that B[ELLE]isima is closing down inworld (cue sad face at hearing of yet another designer pulling up stumps) and other than Elle putting everything up on sale, I wanted to go down and grab another kilt. It's probably my Scottish heritage talking, but I really wanted one.

I also tried something new this time around and went for more of an oil painting look, you know, the kind you would see above a fireplace. I figured it fitted well with the outfit and the background I chose and this was the result:


Steam's Style:
Full outfit: B[ELLE]issima: Prince Charles Kilt, Mac Donald tartan
Stache: sacred: Beard v8

She Ripped My Heart Out - Part VI: Time Out

In the end I kind of figured I needed some time out, some time away to cleanse my soul (and my liver). The beach has always had a cathartic effect on me, growing up and spending endless summers at the beach had set a pattern to my life. It was my escape and right now it was just what I needed...


The sound of the surf, the feeling of the water as it swirled around me and the sand between my toes, it all started to make sense. I knew what I had to do.

Today Steam is wearing:
Hat/hair - Dream dsg: Base cap Skull

After

When I was young, a kid, people often talked about the end. "The world is going downhill,fast" , my old man used to say, "And there's no way to stop it." Of course, I didn't fully understand that then, but I could still feel, and see the poverty and misery we lived in. By the time I was born, the world was slowly falling in disarray. Wars being fought at every step, water reserves diminishing, inflation. Then, the nuclear war started. We never knew who launched the first missiles.



But that doesn't even matter now, the Mechs came next. Some say they were created by the Steamers but no one knows for sure. They were human once, but not any more. Now they just hunt and kill, leaving only devastation in their wake.

She Ripped my Heart Out - Part V: Life As A Blur

It seems sometime between then and now, one night after a few sherbets it was decided for me it was time for some ink! It's not a decision process I recall with a whole lot of clarity, although the result seems clear enough now...


I do remember waking up the next day with my self medication surrounding me and a fair amount of tingling discomfort wondering what, why, how and then finally... WTF!!

The night before must have been awesome.... that's right isn't it?

I recently finished the Zombie Popcorn hunt and one of the gifts was a Joker mask, reminiscent of Heath Ledger in The Dark Knight - it didn't take me long to think of how I could use it and below is my humble attempt at honouring an actor taken long before his time and a bloke from my own home town, literally just down the road.

She Ripped My Heart Out - Part IV: Boy's Night Out

Sporting my two black eyes, I headed out on Saturday night with the boys, not sure where I'd end up or where I'd actually go. The memory of her touch, her warmth, her smile was burned into my soul and the feeling of being perpetually out of sync, like a spectator to my own life circled always around the edges.

A few beers later the boys thought I needed some distraction.....


Who was I to complain?

She Ripped My Heart Out - Part III: In the Ring

With all this time I now found myself with I took up all kinds of new pursuits, I decided to find my old form inside the ring so as soon as I found time I was off to Grechys Pound 4 Pound for some good wholesome heavy bag work. Problem was, I too often found myself in the ring sparing.

She Ripped My Heart Out - Part II: F*#k It

After she left and the pain had turned to red hot anger (it was her fault after all), I did what every red blooded Australian male does, I rang some mates, we went to the nearest pub and we drank and we drank and we drank some more until the pain went just away...

She Ripped My Heart Out

Some V Twin Goodness

He had just taken delivery of his latest lady, she was all chrome and curves and the rumble she made belied how she felt on the road, smooth and effortless. She was hot and he knew it! He had had her stroked to give him some extra cube for some grunt down low and added a few of those poxy chrome options the weekend warriors normally went for, his girl had said they "looked nice"! He had made a mental note then never to go looking for a bike with a girl in tow.

Fallen Angel

He swooped down from above, gliding silently ever downwards. As the sound of the acrid air rushed past his ears, he breathed in deeply relishing the sulphur as it filled his lungs. A wry smile creased his lips as he viewed the devastation he had wrought, noticing for the first time the blood that dripped from the blade of his drawn dagger, wondering which poor wretched creature it had once belonged too…. and he laughed:

Superheated Steam

The other night I popped a DVD into my machine, it was a bit of unknown as I picked it up off a friend, it had a pretty cool title - "Superheroes" so I settled in for an action packed evenings viewing - epic fail. Turns out it was a HBO documentary about real life people who operate as real life vigilantes. I didn't know whether to laugh or cry but I do think the byline on the linked page says it best! There are some classic moments however:
When Mr Extreme introduces you to the Extreme Cave, his trash filled apartment overflowing with filth
When Master Legend shows you around his Legend Van, reaches into his cooler and pulls out a cold beer and sucks it down... this one was way funny!

But back to SL, I have been doing a whole bunch of hunts lately and one of them is Steam The Hunt where I came across a Steam themed outfit honouring Scott Summers a.k.a. Cyclops. I just had to blog it, maybe I'm just a Marvel comic tragic but straight after watching Superheroes I did watch X Men First Class so I guess this outfit was always going to be blogged!


The visor is Mesh so you'll need Kirstens or Viewer 3 to see it properly
