Today I was riding my bike back from the supermarket ... enjoying Toxic tunes from my shuffle ... wind blowing thru my hair ...and a heavy bag on my back ... (you get the picture?) ... when suddenly I heard someone shouting
... Na, Schnecke !! ...
it came from a young guy leaning far out of the window of a car that was passing me from behind ... he was waving at me ... smiling ... and ... whoooosh ... gone I was so surpised that I just smiled back ... and then wondered: Did he say 'Na, Schnecke !!' like 'Hey , crumpet' ... or 'Hey, babe' ? or was he just making fun of my 'snail pace' ? Prolly the latter ... *grins* but hey ... I couldn't be mad about someone with such a cute smile ;-P
I found this Challenge on Rudh's blog ... and she found it on Laila's and Laura's flickr Now, I have a flickr account, but I hardly use it anymore ... so I do it in Rudh's style ... using google ;-) ... kinda
the 'rules' are: Simply type your answer to each of the questions below into Flickr (or google or whatever) search. Then, using only the first page, pick an image.
Then, copy and paste each of the URLs for the images into this mosaic maker bighugelabs.com/flickr/mosaic.php
erm ... I'm not much into rules *grins* ... and so I dropped the mosaic maker part and did my own collage of the pics I found ;-P

that was FUN ... and brought back some nice memories too ...
Celadon ... what a beautiful soft relaxing colour ......
When I saw my smexy friend Cats Kornfeld as a mermaid ... erm ... mercat ... in her post last week I remembered the mermaid outfit I once had created for the Deep Sea Event at Sanctuary Rock ... and how good it feels to float around ... the colours of the tail matched Celadon at least in some spots ... and I grabbed the chance to happily swim and chat with Cats for a bit ... and later relax on those cool rocks that she got on her beautiful little island ... I usually either spend my time hosting at Sanct, which is rather hectic ... or alone designing nonsense on my land (tho that became quite rare) ... but I guess I should do something like this more often for a change ... and can I do it in RL too, please? ... ;-)
So here are some stills and a lil clip with impressions from a very nice evening ... ty Cats ... *hugs*
btw ... you find details to Cats' gorgeous Celadon look and a link to 'Amanda Sea - mermaid heaven' on Cats' Celadon post
Next week is supposed to be Lemon ... says Luna ;-)
and with a lil luck I'll catch up with pink or/and ruby before my vacation in 2 weeks ;-)
Feels like I'm closer and closer to leaving the virtual world ... had no DJ today ... no tips ... running out of Linden for my land again ... the signs can hardly be bigger that RL wants to be #1 ... and guess what ... that's ok ... at least Onion and Dawide kept talking up ... ty guys ;-))
and Luna's colour challenge for this week? ... ELECTRIC BLUE? ... well ... all I can say is ... that trying to catch a lightning messed up my hair and got me the Electric Blue(s)
Next weeks colour will be CELADON ... sounds nice ... looks nice ... and I got NO idea for it ;-)
I wanna do music ... loud and fast and real .... I'm getting there, somehow ;-)))))
