Fashion Sales Event

 Hiya everyone! Tonight we're headed to an Easter Bunny Hunt organized by the Fashion Sales! group, but I assure you that the prizes are not limited to the holiday :) It is still well worth the visit, open until the 15th and loaded with free group gifts and $25L hunt prizes. The landing area has signs with the hunt keys on them from the various stores, and those items to find look like stickers to me...flat, white borders, images of various adorable bunnies. What I'm sharing is the group gifts, found in larger objects which are a cloud with a rainbow above, sleepy bunny snoozing on the cloud while cuddling with an egg. Some had the word GIFT on it and others did not, some were set for sale for $0L but most needed the Fashion Sales! group tag to click and receive for free. They are as cute as they sound if not more, so it was a real pleasure to seek them out. While I do wish I'd found out about this sooner, I would have been very sorry to miss out on exploring the beautifully decorated shopping area :)

One of the brands you'll see at the event is Sugar Dolls, and they've got lots of gifts for us like this [SD] EMBER bodysuit. There are two versions for each size, one labeled Blink, and I didn't see a difference so I am wearing the Blink version to see if anyone else can tell :) Those sizes would be Lara X, Legacy, Bombshell, Reborn, and Waifu mesh bodies. We also receive a HUD with an impressive 53 textures each for the two sections (labeled top and skirt, but really main and edges) including some Christmas type prints. I chose solids that don't really speak to any particular season. The main portion is sheer, so you probably noticed the solid panties that are built in beneath it. 

I also wanted to share their beautiful [SD] ARIAH gift I found. It consists of the top, skirt, and panties, each in Lara X, Legacy, Reborn, and Waifu mesh body sizing, plus a very useful HUD. That has 25 textures each for sections 1 and 3, and 50 each for sections 2 and 4 (top and skirt) as well as 50 for section 5. If I recall that was the panties coloring, and 1 and 3 would be straps and the tied belt. It looks like the top and skirt get more texture choices because some are fishnet and others are gorgeous lace, so I made sure to show off both of those :) 

MIDNIGHT also had some gifts out for us, like this flirty {MD} 101 FATPACK. The saucy dress is lowered with both straps down, but the hem is short enough to show off our (also lowered) panties just so ;) Each of these are provided in sizing for Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Lara X, Petite X, Reborn, and Waifu mesh bodies. The bandaid pasties are BOM layers in 9 different colors to coordinate with the hues you select from the outfit's HUD, which has 44 choices apiece for the dress, straps, panties, and bow on the front of the panties. 

My favorite color looks terrific on our [SD] CLAIR - PINK gift from Sugar Dolls. The top, sleeves, skirt in 2 versions, and leg metals are each included in Lara X, Legacy, Reborn, and Waifu mesh body sizes. We can wear the top with or without sleeves since they're separate, and either skirt is a perfect option :) Those chains are really something, going fro the waist to upper thigh then wrapping around again above the knee. 

For my final look of the evening, I've slipped into the playful [SD] ASHIE gift from Sugar Dolls. The folder will say Zaila instead, so I think the unpacker has the wrong name in the scripting or something :) That's okay, the outfit looks great with any name! Our sexy top and jeans are both laced loosely to show off some skin, and we receive those plus a belly chain that will all fit Lara X, Legacy, Reborn, Squeeze, and Waifu mesh bodies. There's also a HUD inside that offers 27 choices each for the top, images on the top, and the pants, plus 5 metals for the belly chain. 

My neck and shoulder are still quite sore, but I am headed to the doctor (primary care) tomorrow so perhaps she can offer some help. Meanwhile I won't have time to prep a blog post tomorrow or Saturday, so I will see all of you fine folks on Sunday evening instead :) The wait is always so long at this office, but I do like the doctor and she is worth battling through the anxiety to see. I have a dentist visit next week so that'll be another day off from blogging, lol, but fortunately April isn't a super busy month with tons and tons of things I must share immediately. I hope you all have a fantastic weekend ahead, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

CMH Drizzle and Dazzle Hunt

 Hiya everyone! Tonight is time to hunt for some sparkly diamonds, for the CMH Drizzle and Dazzle hunt. It makes me think of April showers, which make me look forward to the May flowers they bring :) The hunt object is a side view of a diamond, and each designer gets to choose which price and how many to hide - $1L hunt prizes or $25L - $50L exclusive offers. Personally I like the idea of an exclusive outfit at a bargain like that, and the dollarbie prizes are usually quite special too. Cheeky Monkey Hunts has some incredible designers each round, so be sure to peek at their hunt website to see the previews as well as links, prices, and hints to find your shinies. These diamonds really are ready to be your best friend!

I'm singing in the rain...this lovely look is our $25L exclusive offer from Harambee-Gwassi called Purple french Coat set. You do get a lot included for the $25L too, starting of course with the coat dress in sizes for Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Lara X, Petite X, Nhumana, Reborn, and Waifu mesh bodies. There's a thong hiding under there that fits Altamura, Freya, Isis, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique bodies, while the matching stilettos fit Altamura, Belleza, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique feet. We're not done yet though, as that pretty umbrella I'm holding has 2 versions (solid and the pattern shown) with the hold pose that you see here, and there is even an add-on called Perfect Rain that is certainly living up to the hype :) Feel free to wear just the parts that suit your destination or mood. I always like to remind folks that this particular store is raising money for charity for schools in Kenya, so our purchases should make us feel good as well as look good. 

There is something so soothing about looking outside and watching furry critters scampering around, and I do sometimes see cuties like the squirrels pictured on our CloudNine Her Liquid Sunshine V1 prize (one of 2 dollarbies, His being the other) but my local ones don't usually play with umbrellas ;) There are two versions of this terrific cap sleeve t-shirt, with one slightly lighter blue and reading "You are liquid sunshine" then the darker shade of blue has similar "Liquid sunshine" wording beneath the squirrel duo. Each comes in sizing for Legacy, Bombshell, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Lara X, Petite X, Reborn, Waifu, and Star mesh bodies.

We can also find a $1L diamond at Hello Uglies, which holds the HU - Bree CMH Special. If you prefer your fashions to lean Goth or Punk, this is the place for you! We receive the fluttery cropped tank top in Lara X, Legacy, and Reborn mesh body sizes. That design on the front is so intriguing, a grapevine wreath made into a pentacle with a few spring blossoms adorning it :) 

I never pass up an excuse to visit @rOrO, so paying just $1L for their Ulla Top Spring is almost too easy of a decision. The unique style of softly ruffled edges and halter neckline looks beautiful with the neon butterflies pattern, and they really pop against either the white or black backgrounds. Each of these comes in sizes for Erika, Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Kupra, Legacy, Maitreya, Lara X, Reborn, and Waifu mesh bodies. The white jeans are from the Delizio fatpack that you can find for free on the marketplace.

For my last outfit of the evening, I chose the Psyche's Pstyles Parasols in the Park prize which can be yours too for just $1L. The top has lovely puffed sleeves and a sweetheart neckline, while the high waisted skirt has delicate pleats arounds its brief hem. Both of these are provided in Kupra, Legacy, Nerido, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Reborn, Juicy, and Mounds mesh body sizes, along with a HUD for each that offers 5 colors. Did you notice the playful pattern of umbrellas? Well they look terrific in any color you select, whether you mix things up or match them to a tee. 

My neck is still annoyingly sore, but otherwise it was a quiet and peaceful day here. I'm still using heat (bed buddy, long microwaveable heating pad) and advil, which help in the moment for sure. Sneezing isn't very fun, lol, and allergy season is hitting pretty hard on that front. Oh well, at least there is no pollen in SL :) Okay there probably is, but my avatar doesn't seem to have a problem with it. I hope you're all having a great day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Kiyomizu Mall Hunting

 Hiya everyone! Tonight I finally had a chance to complete the Kiyomizu Spring 2026 hunt for cute ninja cats, which starts at the Kiyomizu Mall and also has us visiting several mainstores of the brands found here. The best way to navigate is to click one of the floating ghosts above the walkways of the open mall, who will give you a personalized link to show you the cats that you've found and the ones you still need to seek out. You can't refresh the page though, so you will need to click another ghostie when you want a new listing. Did you know that the mall is named for the Kiyomizu-dera Buddhist temple in Kyoto? While there is a temple on the grounds, I had to do a little googling to find that out :) I haven't visited many places in RL so I love learning about them through SL! By the way, the hunt is entirely free with no group needed, and is open until the 12th of April. 

For my first look of the evening, I found the ninja kitty at Shiorin's Mart with their =CS= Female Sportswear 101 prize inside. It is a single piece sweatsuit in lovely purple with white stripes, and I 💗 Kiyomizu on the front with an image of the temple and same text on the back. There are sizes for Legacy, Maitreya, Lara X, and Reborn mesh bodies included. It is a fun way to remember the hunt, and let people know where to visit if they want to do some sightseeing.

I don't usually choose favorites, but if pressed I would have to admit that the SHOP KERO Bird Dress touched something special in my heart. You know by now that I adore birds of all kinds, and some seasons do have feathered associations like cardinals for winter and robins for spring. There are lots of species on the various textures for this dress too, thanks to its HUD offering 12 different prints and arrows to adjust the proportions of the pattern or reset it with the circle in between those arrows. The dress is provided in a fitmesh M size along with Legacy, Maitreya, Lara X, and Reborn mesh body sizing.

MeltingDots freebie store is another wonderful stop on the hunt path, and I'm delighted by their Spring Outfit 2026 v2 prize. The frilly top, separate sleeves, pants, and boots are all included, with a fitmesh M size as well as sizes for Legacy, Maitreya, Lara X, and Reborn mesh bodies. I'm sure you guessed there are HUDs as well :) The main outfit HUD has 6 choices each for top and pants with arrows to adjust the transparency of the sleeves and the pattern proportions on the top. Then the boots HUD has 6 solid colors to mix and match with the clothing :) The button fly jeans styling is such a classic, and the ankle boots fit mid height feet with ease.

Next we visit Mumu's Shop to claim their sweet *R&R* @O Spring Cat outfit. This prize is a one piece sweater and miniskirt combo, in a single size with an alpha layer to help it fit most bodies. It is made even cuter by the cat face on the front, don't you think?

My final look of the night is a doubly delightful prize from [:] colon colon, their 2026 03 LimitedNail package. There are two different applier HUDs inside for the Maitreya/Lara X mesh bodies, one with the gorgeous pink on the upper/left part of this image and the other slightly deeper shade with alternating fingers sporting a subtle floral design on the lower/right. I adore them both, and they are certainly fun for spring :)

My neck is still pretty sore, but I am using heat and taking advil so all I can do now is just cross my fingers (in spirit) and maybe it'll calm down with some rest. I did sleep a little better this time, so that is a slight improvement :) So no plans for the week other than relaxing until Friday, when my primary care doctor visit has been rescheduled a week early. That makes next week less chaotic so it's a good thing. I hope you're all having a beautiful day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Bad Doll Trend

 Hiya everyone! Tonight I'm inviting you back to a full wall of gifts for the Bad Doll group, which is temporarily free to join. The brand of the gifts is TREND, and the group was created by the same designer, so I am not certain if this is a rebrand or a division of the original brand. Either way, being able to claim 54 gifts entirely free is an offer I can't resist :) If you aren't familiar with their style, I would describe it as sexy and versatile, since these gifts are mainly fatpacks with HUDs to change the colors or textures. What better way to ensure that you won't run out of fresh new outfits any time soon?

First up, we have the lovely TREND - Glory Dress - Fatpack gift, with a remarkably dramatic hemline :) This strapless dress falls almost to the ankle in the back, but the front hem is high enough to be a miniskirt. It comes in sizes for Legacy, Bombshell, Perky, Lara X, Petite X, Reborn, and Juicy mesh bodies, with a BOM pantie that is tintable to match any color. That is good news, since the HUD has 33 color choices each for the dress and its edges :) All you have to do to tint the panties is to edit (I right click it in inventory) then the textures tab lets you adjust colors.

Pants sets can be alluring too, like our TREND - Lisa Top & jeans - Fatpack. The pieces are separates in Kupra, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, and Petite mesh body sizing, and the enclosed HUD has 35 choices each for the top, top edges, jeans, and jeans edges. There are 5 bonus prints for the top and its edges, otherwise they are solid knits which look fantastic. The jeans have bonuses too, pretty pinstripes that can elongate the appearance of our legs. Depending on where I wear this, I might be tempted to add a BOM bra from my inventory for a little coverage of that bare underboob from the cropped top :)

I'm a PRINCESS, that's why! At least that's what my new TREND - Eliza Dress - Fatpack says on the front, if I choose a color from the 'text' section of the HUD. There are 30 colors apiece in the solid and texts areas of the HUD, so you can tint your dress without the wording and crown on the front if you prefer. There are sizes for Freya, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, and Reborn mesh bodies included.

TREND - Mere Lingerie - Fatpack is another gift that's sure to turn heads. Our corset top and panties are each provided in Erika, Kupra, Legacy, Maitreya, Petite, and Reborn mesh body sizes. As you can tell, there's also a HUD inside the gift which offers 30 colors each for the corset, corset flowers, pantie, and pantie flowers, so we can mix and match quite a bit.

My final look of the night is our TREND - Lorena Dress - Fatpack group gift. It's really fun for spring since it's got bare arms and a few cutouts like the cleavage baring opening that initially grabbed my attention. There are sizes for Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, and Petite mesh bodies, along with a HUD offering 25 solid colors. I've enjoyed all of these gifts tonight, and am so grateful that they're all fatpacks with lots of lovely colors to switch things up.

I'm having a bit of a rough night because of my neck, which was sore the past few days but really ramped things up while I tried to sleep. That woke me up several times, until eventually I gave up. It's been about 3 years at this point since my last chiropractic visit, and this feels like a big angry sign that it's about time. I've got one of those microwavable heating pad things (tag says bed buddy) around my neck now, and am hoping with every fiber of my being that it helps some :) Because of all this, I have no idea what my plans are this week since being in a car would be torture...we have crappy bumpy roads from judicious salt use each winter, and even breathing is painful because it makes my neck move. So if it gets worse and I go somewhere to get it treated, I would be skipping blogging that evening to rest after. I hope you're all having a good day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Dreamy Dove Gifts

 Hiya everyone! Tonight we're zipping back to the Doves Dream event, in the skies above Palomma Plaza whose free group's tag will grab you all the goodies. The tag says "Doves Angel" in honor of Palomma "Dove" Casanova, who ran The Free Dove on the very same region for many years. Her loss in 2023 could have meant the end of a crucial resource for new residents and budget-conscious shoppers alike, but her dear friend Shelby took over the reins in her memory ♥. I'm eternally grateful for that, and have shared many of those free gifts (and will continue to do so) which makes it a natural for me to also show you the Doves Dream group gifts :) We have a few days left until the doors close on the 11th, but that is enough time to shop for exclusive sales and pick up these generous treats.

My first look of the evening is our K-Ks Designs Dora Free Dove gift, with many ways to wear it because of the accessories. We start with the long sleeved floor length dress in sizes for Legacy, Legacy Classic, Maitreya, and Reborn bodies, then we can add gold shoes that fit Erika, Gen X, Legacy, Maitreya, Reborn, and Star mesh bodies. The hat is adorned with a dove and is resizable, while the shoulder dove is a separate attachment with sound on touch. We can wear the full ensemble or just the parts that tickle our fancy at the moment :) 

Our sexy IOLANA OUTFIT by BA Store is the gift found at the Black Angel display, and it is loaded with coordinating pieces! The harness, jacket, and skirt are each provided in sizing for Erika, Kupra, Legacy, Bombshell, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Lara X, Petite X, Nhumana, Reborn, and Waifu mesh bodies, with the boots fitting the same bodies. Then we receive a HUD that lets us choose from 30 colors each for our jacket, skirt, belt, and harness. There are even 5 metals so you can fully customize this outfit for any mood. 

What better look to reflect our Doves Angel group tag than the Kathleen's Doves Dream Gift? :) There's a gorgeous Angel bodysuit and matching Angel heels, each in sizing for Kupra, Legacy, Maitreya, and Reborn bodies, along with a BOM layer of white pantyhose/tights. The stars of the show are our halo and two pairs of wings, normal and sparkle, to really show off your angelic nature. There have been songs about white winged doves of course (Edge of Seventeen) and doves in general thanks to Prince, so those came to mind as well and brought smiles.

Next I had some fun with the Delicatt Couture - GIFT EXTRA COLORS - Brigith Outfit that is also yours for free with the Palomma Plaza group tag. I love casual looks for spring, so the long sleeved blouse and rugged shorts are a terrific pairing this time of year. They're each included in classic M and fitmesh M sizes for classic avatars, as well as Freya, Isis, Venus, Legacy, Maitreya, Lara X, Ocacin, Reborn, Hourglass, Physique, Tonic Curvy, Tonic Fine, and Voluptuous mesh body sizes. The shirt has a HUD with 2 colors, both shown above, which happen to be my two favorites so I am happier than can be :) I'd like to note that the shorts also come in "standalone" versions for each size, which have a more snug waistband instead of the looser one I'm wearing with these tucked in shirts.

For my final look of the night, I am wearing those standalone shorts I just mentioned with the BlondeQueen gift called BQ::Shirley Crop Top:: 2 Mixed Colors. There are pink/apple and pink/strawberry versions, both shown here and looking so cute :) Each of these is provided in sizing for Erika, Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Kupra, Legacy, Lara X, Reborn, and Waifu mesh bodies. They both make me think of sunshine, warm weather, and good times, all of which are abundant in our wonderful world of SL.

How was everyone's weekend? Mine was pretty good overall, with a hot weather visit to the farmers market Saturday morning (the heat caused increased anxiety but I got through) and then I had pizza for Easter dinner :) My family almost never does anything the traditional way, lol, and we used a premade gluten free crust this time (Christmas dough was gross) and putting on our own toppings ensures that we'll each enjoy whatever we want. The temperatures dropped again so it's still weird weather out there, so we'll see what my week ahead holds. I hope you're all having a nice day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Trendy with Bad Doll

 Hiya everyone! Tonight's treats are free gifts for the Bad Doll group, which is currently free to join. They all however are branded TREND which is also by the same designer, so I'm not sure if it's a rebrand or a division of TREND. This wall of group gifts almost made my avi's little head spin, as there are about 50 gifts and they're pretty much all fatpacks! If you need a new look for just about any occasion and are short on cash, you can certainly find outfits to help you out here :) We love one stop shopping for busy weekends, right?

We start with the flirty TREND - Flora Dress - Fatpack gift, which caught my eye with that daring diagonal hemline! There are sizes for Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, and Petite mesh bodies, with a HUD that offers 40 choices apiece for the dress and the edges. We get a few patterns to play with in addition to the solid colors,  so there are plenty of possibilities.

The TREND - Aly Dress - Fatpack group gift is a fun one for showing off cleavage and peeks of skin through the various openings. It has a triangle or wedge in the front of the skirt that points to the bust cutout, a concept that made me smile. This dress fits Kupra, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, and Petite mesh bodies, and has a HUD with 30 solid colors each for the main dress, edges, and triangle. All the various pieces can blend together nicely if you choose the same hue for every one of them, but for demonstration purposes I made them contrast to help you see what they are :) As always I urge you to take advantage of the versatility and wear it however you personally wish.

Another sleek and shiny dress you don't want to miss is our TREND - Daphne Dress - Fatpack gift. It's strapless and sexy, with seams down the front that tie at the bottom hem with a loose bow. There are sizes for Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, and Petite mesh bodies included, along with a HUD so we can pick from 30 colors each for the dress, seams, and laces (bow). It looks like it would softly squeak if I ran my finger down the material, doesn't it?

Next I've changed into the chic TREND - Dua Jacket - Fatpack gift, which can be worn as a long jacket or a short dress. I love the crisp collar and built in wide belt, plus I can't resist the allure of pinstripes :) Included are sizes for Erika, Kupra, Legacy, Maitreya, Petite, and Reborn mesh bodies, along with a HUD offering 30 colors each for the jacket and the belt. If you choose the same shade for both, the belt almost blends in from the front if that is your preference. The bright golden buttons are such a fun touch too.

One more treat to see, this is the playful TREND - Domina Top & Leggings - Fatpack. It consists of the bra top and slim leggings, each designed for Erika, Kupra, Legacy, Maitreya, Petite, and Reborn mesh bodies. The HUD has 33 colors each for the neck straps, top, waist, and leggings, so we can mix and match however we desire :) I'm probably going to wind up wearing this for most of the weekend, just changing colors randomly and enjoying the shiny material. All my SL plans call for casual wear, nothing formal or fancy, so this should be just right.

It's been a long week somehow, but I am glad that the weekend is here and my Easter plans are all set as far as time and what to bring. Sometimes it's the little details that can be a struggle, but it was all discussed at dinner and we're all on the same page. I watched a pretty wild hockey game (no, not the Minnesota Wild, lol) and now I am preparing for tomorrow morning's farmers market visit. The weather should be beautiful, and I'm going to try my hardest to remember my sunscreen :) I hope you all have a fantastic weekend ahead, Happy Easter to those who celebrate, and lots of magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Bring On Spring With FabFree

 Hiya everyone! Tonight it's time to Bring On Spring, thanks to the FabFree hunt of that name. This round runs throughout the month of April, and we're looking for neon rainbows in each store for $0L - $5L each. You will need their website open as it tells you the links, hints, prices, and preview images of the prizes. I'm a longtime fan of theirs as I've mentioned here countless times, so these hunts are extra excuses for me to visit their participating stores :) That's the fun part, I don't need additional reasons when I already do stop by most of these stores relatively frequently, and if you aren't already familiar with them I think you'll be eager to get more cozy and hang onto those landmarks.

My first stop was Belle Epoque, where I found their lovely Medea GIFT for free inside their hidden rainbow. The pastel pink (color is called Candy) gown has intricate chain straps and a flowing skirt that falls past the ankles. Isn't it so pretty? The gift includes sizes for Lara X, Petite X, Legacy, Perky, Reborn, and Waifu mesh bodies. 

Here I'm still feeling pretty in pink with the Ruxy Ellena V3 prize, which is also a free treat :) It fits Lara X and Legacy mesh bodies, and has an eye-catching checkerboard pattern on the fabric. There are lots of great 3D details, like the flowers above each breast and the beaded chain style straps that go around both breasts, across the back, and loop around the neck. The essentials are covered but we are absolutely looking sizzling hot! PLEASE note - I did stumble across a couple of $1L rainbows from a previous round, so make sure you follow the hint carefully and if you don't already have those other prizes you can consider that a bonus opportunity :)

Speaking of hot, our $3L HU - April prize from Hello Uglies is a sexy way to remind folks that spring isn't just about pastels :) This gives Goth ballerina vibes, and I'm surprised at how much that idea captivates me. I think it's the detached looking puffed sleeves as well as the layered skirt that is reminiscent of a tutu. The back of the skirt is short enough that I will be finding my favorite black lace panties to layer beneath. This affordable goodie is yours in sizes for Legacy, Maitreya, Lara X, Reborn, and Waifu mesh bodies.

As a certified 3rd generation chocoholic, lol, this $1L hunt prize makes me so happy. It's our CloudNine Her Chocolate tee, and says "Save the Earth... it's the only planet with Chocolate" with a very well chosen image in the middle. The soft tan material reminds me of a sweatshirt, I think the term is heathered when it's got that mix of shades in the knit :) The ladies' version has sizing for Erika, Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Lara X, Petite X, Reborn, Waifu, and Star mesh bodies, while the nearby rainbow for the men has its own set of sizes. That one is the same low price, both easy to find and well worth it. 

My final look of the night is our @rOrO Shelby Dress Spring Edition prize, which is both fabulous and free! Just find that rainbow and you'll receive Erika, Legacy, Maitreya, Lara X, and Reborn mesh body sizing, along with a HUD offering 4 colors of the sweet floral pattern. It really is ideal for spring, and I can't wait to wear it out and about :)

It was a nice outing yesterday, although a bit tiring, and I had a good day today too even though the weather dropped a full 40 degrees from one day to the next! Can you believe it, I mean what is happening here? LOL! Every evening I have to rearrange half my office to swap the fan and heater, and I can't figure out whether I need short sleeves, long sleeves, no sleeves, or several layers to be comfy. Otherwise it's nice to have April here finally, and I have my Easter plans set which is something my family usually doesn't do so it's a bit unusual although not a bad thing by any means. Gaming with friends was fun, and they might have to skip next week but we'll still be ready for the big update (DLC, added content) in Hello Kitty the following week. I hope you're all having a pleasant day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
