Golden Afternoon

One of my favorite things about SL is that it can be whatever season I want it to be. My favorite season is autumn and so with very little help from me, my darling dear set up a fall hideaway for us. I couldn't resist using it for pictures and since he is such a good sport he agreed. I had been waiting for just the right place to take some picnic pictures and this was it.

Neither of us are really big drinkers, but we couldn't resist a little bubbly. Just like one would expect the bubbles went straight to our heads and we got silly.

I will probably be taking tons of pictures up there even if summer is just starting where I live.

The Muse

Everyone has their own idea of what a Muse is. There are the Greek mythological goddesses and there are the more human forms as well, such as a lover. We have all dealt with the lack of inspiration before and it can be quite frustrating to be certain. Take this poor soul for instance. His Muse is no where to be found thus leaving him annoyed and rapidly approaching his deadline.

Where can his Muse have gone? You can't expect a Muse to be on call all day every day now can you? They deserve a break too. Sometimes they are away on vacations and other times it's just a quick coffee break.

In this case she was just getting a quick cup of coffee. Even the Muse has a boss though and he ordered her back to work right away. No rest for those that inspire I guess.

The Muse sprinkles her magic dust upon her charge and he is off to work again. he has yet to miss a deadline while in her care and he most likely never will. She will always be on hand to inspire him, even if she cuts it a little close.

Siblings

There are the kinds of siblings that you are born with and then there are the ones you choose. The ones you choose are sometimes the ones that know you better than the other. When I saw this pose I knew exactly what I wanted to do with it. You see in my head the caption for this photo has always been "Siblings have your back". Sure it's super punny, but you should come to expect that from me now. I am lucky enough to call these two family now you know since I married one of them. I am sure you can figure out which if you read this blog often enough. Well I should stop talking before the flu meds kick in and I start sounding like a prattling fool.
