*looks around at the dolls that surround my computer*

mood.
i have a dragon, a crochet plague doctor, a Ty panda a Halloween crow, and a crochet!me.

Just a small doll family for you, huh, @trystan?

I have SO got to get it in gear and get the yarn I need to make this sunflower doll pattern, and to just sit down and crochet the cactus kit I have. Crochet used to be so easy, but now there are so many other things yelling for attention.

that's a, err.... small sample of my collection

LMBO

Those little faces can be hard to resist, huh, @trystan?

I've got them all over the place, and I STILL have to make baby Apricot a crochet dress and underpants too, I just remembered. *rueful look toward happily grinning little nudie butt Strawberry Shortcake friend*

Speaking of doll dresses, I think I finally have the right pink on this one (the avatar) for Breast Cancer awareness month. I like how I have her background and hair now, too. Do you think the bottom of her ruffles look alright? It's a different pink than the rest, I thought it looked a bit like shadowing?

actually, the avatar looks amazing!

Oh good! Thank you, @trystan!

I changed the hair on my unhappy avatar too. It seems to suit her better.

you're quite welcome!

When I ask opinions about my avatars, I'm not looking for praise. I honestly feel like I need a second opinion. *self consciousness sticking out*

Oh. I have a new doll in the mail! https://i.etsystatic.com/icm/7ec1cd/293005569/icm_fullxfull.293005569_2fkzmrhtjim80c8okc4o.jpg?version=0 She's a big one.

@trystan.

oh she's neat!

yeah, i get the second opinion about avis, i do.

She's Jinx from 'League of Legends', which I don't play and don't care for really, but Jinx's lore amuses me. She's the kind of crazy character I seem to like these days. And her ridiculous outfit looks cute on a fluffy doll that squidges out of it.

Oh, it's good to know it's not just me, @trystan.

nope, not just you.

i've heard of 'League of Legends'.... but that's all

In my opinion the game's boring even to watch. But the advertisements and the lore can be amusing.

Ugh. There's a bedbug in my bed. It's been biting my feet. I have to figure out SOME way to spray the bed and buy diatomaceous earth and bedbug spray online. Because right now I don't think I could cope with having to pack and cover everything or being kicked out of the apartment for most of a day.

@trystan

eek. bedbugs scare the crap out of me. *shivers* no thanks!

Me too. To the point where I start tripping out.

On Friday night my eyes started strobing for several minutes. Never had haloing that intense. And there's at least two inches of snow outside, so that makes seeing even weirder.

Sorry for griping so much.

@trystan

eh, it's your thread, gripe away.

i like snow.... as long as i don't have to go out in it!

Don't want to scare my only guest away, @trystan.

I'm not TOO bothered about being in it. Except when it's falling heavily. I don't like turning into a drift even as I walk.

Hey, trystan, if I sent you the money for a crochet pattern, would you make me a doll to buy?

probably not right now, on making the doll - i have NaNo at the moment, and then a few holiday gifts later on.... so... not at this time. sorry 'bout that.

That's okay. I wasn't looking for right away, though. Maybe some other time? I don't get snarky about paying price. I've crafted myself and I know the cost of materials and the amount of time stuff like that takes. (don't worry, I won't pester you)

On another tack, I found this really neat video. It's a mixture of wordless storytelling, a couple story boards, and some bollywood dancing and sweet Indian bagpipes. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0K-s8wefKlA Oh, and a lady piper.

oh that is interesting!

Isn't it? One of her minion ladies has that strong face that works so well for looking haughty.
