Less Than Fifty Shades of Phire

I have been holding out on posting this one because I wanted it to do it the day the movie came out. I admit I know nothing about the books or the movie since I have neither read nor seen either.

This huge gorgeous couch is from ~Libertine~ and it seats, well a lot of people. It's broken up into five different areas and there are a bunch of options in each one. I tried to keep it pretty clean today, but I promise you there are some more...frisky poses in it. One, two, three of you having some fun while others watch, hey it's up to you. Maybe you like an audience, no judgment here. There is so much in this set that I suggest you head to the shop inworld and poke at it yourself.

My New Furry Friend

Every days it's the same thing. He goes off to work and I am left all alone. I mean sure I get things done while he is gone, but it gets lonely, especially when he works late or goes on trips.

I mean we have a cat, but she is so independent and well just downright mean that I decided we needed a new member of the family. A furry member of course, so off I went. I have to say when I saw him it was love at first sight and I knew exactly what to name him.

Meet Topper! He is named after an old black and white movie with Cary Grant, one of my favorites actually. In fact we watched it just the other night. I don't have to worry about Topper going to work. In fact as long as I walk him and feed him and scratch him behind his floppy ears he sticks to my side.

My furry little bundle of love.

Beach Day!

When I am excited I can act like a little kid, especially when I am looking forward to going somewhere. I am not above getting dressed and then pouncing to wake people up.

What can I say it was beach day and I wanted to get going.Once I got him awake and to the beach we had a great day. We had a little picnic, splashed in the water, you know all the fun beach activities. The icing on the cake of a great day was watching the sun set together.
A perfect ending to a perfect day.

Returning to the sea

...continued from parts one and two.
The young man noticed the sadness in the mermaid and though he wanted to keep her with him he knew she belonged in the sea. He spoke tender words to her letting her know that he loved her so much he couldn't stand to see her miserable.
They walked along the beach and as the waves crashed over her feet her tail began to return. She had a hard time letting him go, but she knew she didn't have a choice.

She dove into the water and swam away as fast as her fins could take her. Only once did she look back at him as her tears became one with the salty waters of the ocean.

The End?

Mermaid Rescue

One day while walking along the beach a young man stumbled across a mermaid washed up o the beach. He scooped her up and carrier her off to his home to try and nurse her back to health.

Little did he know that the once she was away from the water her fins would disappear. he was shacked when he got to his home and noticed she has human legs. He gingerly placed her upon the couch to rest and recover.

Flying a Kite

It's pretty funny, just a couple of weeks ago I was watching Mary Poppins with a certain someone special and when it was over I said something along the lines of "We should go fly a kite!". It sort of fell to the wayside until this weekend...

As you can see I got my wish to go fly a kite. He even let my climb on his back to try and see how high we could get the kite to go. We had to find a place away from the trees to fly the kite though because I didn't want it getting caught in a tree. I have a bad track record when it comes to kites and trees.

Luckily I was able to keep a tight hold on both the man and the kite and they both returned home in one piece, though one may have some sore muscles from holding me up.

Be My Valentine

There once was a boy who was very fond of a girl . He thought since it was Valentine's Day this week he would make his move. He brought her a box of delicious chocolates which she shyly accepted.

This broke the ice and he was able to make his move and asked her out. The date wen wonderfully and as young lovers do they found a spot to make out and make out they did!

The next morning the girl struggled to cover the love bite that he left her as a souviner of their night together. Maybe she can just move her hair to cover it up.

Lizzie Borden - Vampire Slayer

So you may or may not be familiar with Lizzie Borden so here is a little rhyme that children used to skip rope to...

Lizzie Borden took an axe 

And gave her mother forty whacks. 

When she saw what she had done 

She gave her father forty-one. 

There are a lot of ideas as to why this happened, but I know the true story. Lizzie was a vampire slayer/demon hunter and she found out the truth about her father and step mother. They weren't human at all and she needed to deal with them accordingly. Some may think that this was a one time deal, but I have uncovered photos to the contrary, and they have been lovingly colorized for modern times.
As you can see from the photo Lizzie would sneak up on unsuspecting vampires as they rose from their mausoleums in the early hours of the evening.

She would strike quickly, dealing a lethal blow before they ever saw it coming.

She would leave her victims there are a warning to others knowing that when the sun rose it would obliterate all evidence of what she has been doing.

Young Love

Is there any better animated love story and heartbreaking and awe inspiring as the love between Ellie and Carl in Up? It's rare that an animated movie can make adults weep the way that movie does. I am getting misty eyed just typing this post. I did my best to capture the magic and love between the two, but that seems to be a challenge I can not measure up to.
Of course in Phireworld Ellie can not measure up to Carl. Okay so I am just really short, but hey there is nothing wrong with a little role reversal...right? Before we start a lively debate on that topic, or not so lively, I shall send forth the credits.

A Whole New World

I had to title this post the way I did. I mean look at the first picture for Aladdin and Jasmine. I an not going to admit to how many looks I tried before I settled on this outfit for my Jasmine.
This picture was a total accident. I took one where "Aladdin's" eyes were closed and when I went to take the picture again, my eyes were closed. I hacked them together so that both our eyes were closed. It seems all sweet and loving.
