He turned away from me, the better to hide the exclamation of annoyance which he muttered under his breath; I caught only what seemed to be the syllable cog (perhaps a reference to my mechanical trade) and the word succour (a prayer for divine assistance?).”
― K.W. Jeter, Infernal Devices

A Clockwork Spiral is currently going on with all sorts of steam punk inspired goodness available by various designers. The proceeds of this event go to and benefit the National Kidney Foundation. Not only does this event host a plethora of designers, but the money goes to a great cause.

 

It is that time of year again, and I was so overwhelmed in enjoyment for the stuff that I have seen so far as well as clawing my way from that nether verse known as real life that it took a moment to catch my breath.  However, I have found my way to other side, and I must say that I always enjoy the variety that this event has to offer.   I was inspired to jump onto my airship after ‘Talk like a Pirate’ day came and went recently, so .. “Yar!”

 

So the journey begins as the I Regret Nothing Airship takes off into the skies.. next stop, land of cogs ho!

Soon enough, I come to one of my favorite places, which is the sim known as the Forgotten City. I had covered this in another blog entry, and it really a great place to just explore, especially if you love automatons and such themes.   So I make a landing and find my way over to find a ship that needs my tinkering skills, and I am not disappointed to find a bit of work on deck.

 

Every mechanic deserves good nails, and the good thing is that does not really chip?  How?  That is my secret!

I almost forgot this fabulous set of ruby heels!  Dorothy would even like these, I think.

 

Well, I should get to working on those engines!  Don’t forget to hop your airship, or however you travel, to check out “A Clockwork Spiral”, which is still going until October 1st!
