My friend Eclectric Breitman, maker of the Ollipog tiny avatars, has been busy at work in New Toulouse creating new builds to be placed throughout its sims. He invited me to come along on a tour of them and here I am standing on a balcony of one with Gabi and Francesca Alva. They really are nice and will stand out among the other builds already in place in Taloo.
Now you know I'm not turning down a dance! Hopefully he won't try to shoot my rabbit again...
Stood on Shotgun Row talking to Nikita Weymann and Louhi Gothly about Mardi Gras and goings-on in Taloo. Right now there's a big hunt going on. Lots of fun stuff to be found at the artists and merchants around town (including my place, Miss Elle's Lucky #7, on Shotgun Row). There's gonna be a big parade with floats on Sunday at Noon...
I can tell ya, my being a possum wasn't the most unusual thing to see...TWO streetcards went by us (double the runnin' over trouble, I say) and a shout went out as Johnny Skosh rode by in one: "ZOMBIE!" He politely said hello to me as he went by. Guess possum brains ain't appetizin'. Gotta love this place...
I wandered through the sim for a moment, as I hadn't visited in a while...
And then found my way to Le Chat Gris, where we danced until the sun came up!
Salut chers! I have continued to maintain my little shotgun house and cemetery tomb in Taloo because I still believed it was a beautiful unique community that I still wanted to be a part of somehow. I know that I have not been there as much as I used to as so many of my close circle of friends had left. As a community, it is undergoing a bit of change and transition itself as Mama Cree is turning it over to Gabi (Gabrielle Riel). It should be interesting to see what she does with it. I think I should stop in more often. It was nice talking to Mama Cree the other night and I'd like to thank her for creating a lovely community. She said she'd like to go back to focusing more on building and creating as that's what she loves.
Although celebrated in other parts of the world, it is considered one of the most important days in the Voodoo/Vodun religion, and the St John's Eve rituals of New Orleans' voodoo queen Marie Laveau used to draw a crowd of thousands. No drumming and crowds of thousands at this gathering...we just danced...
I just happened to log in early and found Phin there packing things up, so we decided to have a last dance there, where we've had many happy ones. We always said the club was a great time, if only for just the two of us. Many thanks to all of you who enjoyed it!
Happy 9 months to you darlin' and on to the next adventure together! Shall we?
Oh c'mon now, you know I was draped across the piano like always as my baby tickled the ivories. Dia joined him on the banjo and Jameson, on the trombone . Even Miss Vee came later and broke out her jug! We all had a fantastic time and I hope we can all do it again real soon! You can see a fun video of the festivities HERE. Bone sewer, y'all!
And for you new BSG RI fans out there, I made a tiny flightsuit like Kara's...
BloodSong and his chickens...
Dancing with my Phin in Taloo...
A giant snail checking out info about...the Giant Snail Race for RFL...
Me, Dia and Miss Vee sat on the stage and chatted for a while. I'm tellin' ya, sometimes I will dance by myself if the mood strikes me, ya know?
Of course, we "somehow" ended up stopping through Lafitte's, where after a hat change for everyone it's a wonder how afterwards we were all able to make it down the street to...
The cemetery, where we paid our respects to the departed who couldn't join us...
And afterwards we would our way through to the DuBois Mansion, Rudolfo's inherited home, where Mr Fernshaw, Dia and Miss Vee played. Toot that jug Mis Vee!!!
There was dancing and music and fun and we all had a great time!!
And after I got my fill of weightless floating...
I came down to earth and laid across my fave spot on the piano in Phin's club as Henri played...
And we sped through the streets of New Taloo...
Before ending up on the roof talking to Sinclair, who runs the local air courier service. That's quite a short takeoff area!
Dr GeorgeWashington Carver stopped through and enjoyed the festivities...
And later, I had a chance to play the music I transcribed for my flute to Phin at the Club...
And we lindy-hopped the night away! Five months today, hon! This swell guy always makes me feel so much better and all those gray clouds I was feelin' earlier, just went "poof!" Gone!
Couldn't help but to dance a little as folks came in and out and chatted with us. I told 'im, it's a party even if it's just the two of us, ya know? We're still workin' on it, but the space is starting to look real swanky! Ayibobo!
Dia and Gryff helped to break in the dance floor...
That's right Phin baby, tickle those ivories for me!
