davidd’s A DOLL A DAY 2021

[Loona]

I agree, most of the "neutral ex-pression" heads for female action figures look rather stern, or even hostile. I actually tossed a head in to the burning fireplace a couple of nights ago; it was either too large or too small for the bodies I had, the color did not match anything, and the look on the face was just annoying. I got tired of it rolling around in my storage tub and in a fit of pique I sent it to a fiery doom. I should probably do that with a lot of stuff I own.

The little crystal skulls are cool. My hobby funds have been tapped out, too, but I did come in to a few dollars... so I placed an order another set of skulls, so I can create a ring of thirteen crystal skulls and manifest my desires! Mwah hah hah hah hah!

What's the deal with February becoming a Time Vortex this year?

February is unbelievable... and it manages to do this in less days, even! Coming to think of it, maybe February is the pissed of youngest sibling among the months, hating the fact that it's shorter, and doing all kinds of mischief to compensate and grab attention?

Wow, well, that sounds pretty unex-pected - but it must have felt relieving, given the frustration the head has given you. Maybe that's also how it feels when you break a guitar amidst the sound euphoria on stage? I always wondered what that might feel like, but at the same time never thought I could bring myself to do something like that myself (luckily, I can't play guitar, and you can't do this with a piano ). Was the head not worth reselling? When it comes to my collections, I am very money-grubbing (which might not be the correct word to use here), so I can hardly bring myself to give stuff away (to charity stops and that sort, that is. Gifting stuff to people I know is different) or toss them, if there's a resale potential, even if it only brings little money. Someone I know asked me once if it's really worth the time and effort to resell stuff, because I don't necessrily *need* that money. He was right in both. I could afford not bothering to resell stuff, and I don't like the work and time that goes into reselling things - but there are two main factors that make me continue: when I get some money back this way, it makes me feel good to know it isn't just more money taken away from my general budget, but money I've already spent, and now only repurposed into something I like more; and it also makes me feel good to see those items not needed by me finding new homes where they are appreciated. Comments like "I've been looking for this for a long time", "I had this as a child and it was given away by my parents, so I'm happy to have it back", or "my daughter refused to let me clean it before she went to bed, holding it" just fill me with overwhelming happiness.

Aww, Toni is cute! I, too, really like her jeans, and her sneakers look fabulous! She should watch out for those loose laces though! It reminds me of a *very* short time during my teens, when I, for some weird and unknown reason, thought it's cool and rebelish to run around with my boots' laces untied The boots being high, unisex and designed also to fit thicker ankles, my thin teen girl ankles didn't require all the lace, and there was plenty of excess: I dragged along almost a metre of cord (x4) as I ran around. You can imagine why I don't wonder why the phase didn't last long And wow, all these teen memories your Phicens evoke!
Back to Toni, she looks younger than the rest of the ladies - her facial features also seem younger, and even a little shy.Is that something Monster High she is holding? The skull looks like MH, but I can't identify the exact piece.
