Fantastical Friday: Geeking Out

I thought I would do a more relaxed post for this Fantastical Friday, so I found a selection of mostly vintage game shirts. Some of us will remember when Donkey Kong was at the top of the gamer world. Who could forget Pacman in the arcades, a place that has virtually disappeared in modern America. There were certain drawbacks to playing games back in the day, like the dreaded but ever present Atari thumb. I about fell out in shock when I first played a N64, it didn’t hurt at all! These epic game t-shirts I found on Amazon.com.

1) Vintage Game Controller V-Neck ($24.99)
2) Pac-Man Red Ghost Headphones Black Adult T-shirt Tee ($18.95)
3) Womens Will Work for Rupees T-Shirt Classic Video Gaming Shirt ($22.99)
4) Crazy Dog Tshirts Women’s in Case Of Ganon Break Glass Video Game T-Shirt ($20.99)
5) Lightweight Hot Customizable Tee Cotton Scalebound Game Women Gray ($21.01)
6) Steramirez Game Controller Gray Print T-shirt Customized Women ($21.12)
7) Custom Wario Game Wario Cotton Women Vogue Tee Gray ($21.15)
8) Tamararoy I Love Computer Game Consoles Print T-shirt For Women Gray ($21.20)
9) Customizable Informal Pacman Created T-shirt In Gray Women Cotton ($22.55)

Thought I would include one of my fave songs from my childhood. While I was only 2 when it was released, it still feels like he was complaining about my generation of gamers, LOL.

Jolly Ramblings

Summer does tend to be a joyful season for most people, if you can stay cool anyway. There are so many things that make me happy, regardless of the season. Playing Dungeons & Dragons with my soon to be husband, being furniture for a purring fur ball, laughter from my youngest sister & far too many more to list. What are the things that fill your days with joy?

Summer Breeze

Today I thought I would share with you a poem by Robert Frost & a summery outfit from Lane Bryant. I hope you are all enjoying the season, despite the heat!

The Road Not Taken

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, And sorry I could not travel both And be one traveler, long I stood And looked down one as far as I could To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair, And having perhaps the better claim, Because it was grassy and wanted wear; Though as for that the passing there Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay In leaves no step had trodden black. Oh, I kept the first for another day! Yet knowing how way leads on to way, I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh Somewhere ages and ages hence: Two roads diverged in a wood, and I— I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference.

Pleated One Shoulder Dress ($79.95)
Espadrille Wedge Sandal ($49.95)
Stone Drop Earrings ($14.95)
Stacked Stone Pendant Necklace ($29.95)
12 Row Bangle Bracelet Set by Lane Bryant ($19.95)
Filigree Stone Ring ($19.95)

Health Inspired Selections

Magnets have been believed to have healing properties since ancient times. Various gemstones are also used in therapies for different types of ailments, not really going into all that today though lol. So I thought I would do a post to showcase some of the more beautiful options available for promoting wellness & treating issues. I know that yesterday I posted selections from Billy the Tree, but they have numerous items that suit this topic so I thought I would revisit because, well, I can do that if I want, LOL.

Some of the more ancient uses for magnets are to draw out poison, to turn back the clock & promote youth, to control bleeding, improve gout, treat spasms & even to improve vision. In modern times such items are often used adjunct to other therapeutic treatments for arthritic conditions. When magnets are worn for medical reasons they are often placed near the joint or joints that are causing the most issue. It is also true that the magnetic field we generate about ourselves can easily be modified with the presence of magnets or electrical fields, changing your personal magnetic field can have profound effects on your general wellness. Without further delay I will show you some of the lovely items I found. 😉

1) Simulated Turquoise Semi-Precious Magnetic Therapy Earrings ($12.95)
2) Simulated Mother of Pearl Magnetic Therapy Earrings ($12.95)

Magnificent Monday: Jaclyn Smith

Yes, another Charlie’s Angel, lol. I have mentioned before just how taken I was as a small child with that show. It so helped to shape my childhood fantasies & imaginative playtime.

For the third installment on the original show in this blog, Jaclyn Smith who played Kelly Garrett is the featured actress. 🙂 Mr Blackwell, who was notoriously difficult to please, once called her the most beautiful woman in the world & this is not the only tribute to her beauty throughout her career. Well, it is fairly undeniable that she is stunning.

Her life has not been devoid of tragedy as some seem to be. She is a breast cancer survivor who even appeared in the documentary 1 a Minute to talk about the disease (side note, even Melissa Etheridge, a previous Magnificent Monday star, was in that film). It is also unfortunate that her son, Joe Cole, was murdered in a robbery in 1991 & to this day the crime is unsolved. Perhaps it helped her in CSI & other similar roles since. I do hope that one day she finds some measure of closure & resolution to that horrible crime, mothers were never meant to bury their children. 😦

Naturally, I have made a few selections based on the ever beautiful Jaclyn Smith’s sense of style. These choices come from Billy the Tree, one of my fave jewelry shops.

1) Simulated Pearl Drop with CZ Post Earrings 925 Sterling Silver ($13.95)
2) Crystal Drop French Wire Fashion Earrings ($14.95)
3) Long Crystal and Imitation Pearl Drop Fashion Earrings ($14.95)
4) Wave Design Tube with Cultured Freshwater Pearl French Wire Earrings 925 Sterling Silver ($16.95)
5) 1.75″ Chain with White Cultured Freshwater Pearl and Crystal Earrings 925 Sterling Silver ($17.95)
6) White Cultured Freshwater Pearl Lever Back Earrings 925 Sterling Silver ($19.95)
7) 28″ Oval Link Silver Tone Fashion Chain ($13.95)
8) 16″ 1mm (0.04″) Round Omega Necklace 925 Sterling Silver ($23.50)
9) 16″ 3mm (1/8″) Domed Omega Necklace 925 Sterling Silver ($65.95)
