Is that really them?

Yes, folks. Do not adjust your monitor. Oliver and Fiona do look 100% different!!

Check this out!!



Can you believe it?! You know what is even better? I made those wigs!! Yeah. You know what, for a reminder I'm gonna do before and after shots...

Before:


After:




Yep. Same dolls. Just different wigs. Its crazy how much different hair can change a doll so much!! I freaking love them though. I love the wigs, I love the clothes.... Holy cow! EVERYTHING they are wearing I made!!!! Even the hair!! I rock so hard core!!! WOOO!!!

Ok, well that's all I really have to say. There is a dolly meet up tomorrow that I'm excited to go to, so I may be posting more pics tomorrow. Until then, toodles :)

All about Anarchy...

Its been a few days so I thought I'd post something really quick.

I'm getting a new doll. I'm really excited for her. She is a DOC Bee/Dollzone hybrid. I'm naming her An. Short for Anarchy. She looks like a rockstar, so she needed a rockstar name. I'm excited for her. She is coming with 2 wigs, and I've ordered some fabric so I can try to make more wigs. I don't know if I'll get it figured out. I may need Neish to make them for me. (She's a little crafty-er than me)

With An's name I considered alot of things. I considered Eryn, Kiah, Alchemy, and lots of others. Even with Anarchy I considered Anne, first name R, middle initial, and Key for a last name. So her name would have been Anne R. Key. But I think I like Anarchy, An for short. Let me see if I can find a pic of her really quite, one second...

Ok. Here are some pics of her:

She's not coming with a black wig, but I plan to make one when she gets here.


These are the 2 wigs I'm getting with her. I'm excited




She's so pretty. I'm really excited. I should be getting her sometime this week, or the beginning of next week. Hooray :D

So yeah. That's all I have to talk about for now. Thank you mom, by the way, for buying her for me :) Yep. That's all. Toodles

Been a few days...

But I'm back. And not doing to bad. Sewing away. So I saw this show today that was called "Boy Eats Girl" about a guy that gets turned into a zombie, but he's not a full zombie, so he helps his little girlfriend and best friends get away from the other zombies. It was odd and comical. I enjoyed it. I would watch it again, but I don't think I'd buy it. Then again, movies like this have a way of growing on me.

I also watched one of the After Dark Horrorfest films from last year. It was call Crazy Eights. I was bored and unimpressed. The storyline was askew, and didn't make the best sense and the characters made really really stupid decisions. "Oh, there is an evil ghost thing picking us off one by one? Better split up! She doesn't get us if we're in a group. Quick everyone get out of visual from everyone else." Not impressed. There are a couple from this year that look interesting. I think I may check them out. I still have a couple from the first year, but not all of those are all that good.

There are probably people out there that disagree with me, I do that alot with horror films. But different things scare different people. Serial killer movies don't do it for me. I usually get bored. Monster movies, I usually spend most of the time trying to find parts where the monster either looks fake or real. But I'm generally unimpressed with those (even though I did really love Cloverfield).

Supernaturals are the type of horror flick I prefer. But they have to be done right. It can't just be "You made me angry and I'm back to exact revenge!" There has to be something to it. Like The Ring, She was just evil. She says so. They ask, "You don't want to hurt anyone..?" To which she replies, "But I do. And I'm sorry." I had a friend argue that she doesn't mean to hurt anyone, but if she didn't mean it she wouldn't carry on doing it after she was killed. I also like The Grudge. Yeah, I know. I really like Asian horror flicks. The Eye was really good as well. Not really scary, but it had a captivating storyline, and an interesting twist that you don't expect.

I guess simplicity can work to a horror movies advantage. Simplicity or intrigue. Maybe both. I dunno. I would say I'm no expert, but honestly I've watched so many horror films, I may just about be an expert. I really like them though. The jumps, the screeches, the screams you try to convince others had nothing to do with the cat jumping out of the locker (Silent Hill reference!!!) I definitely would rather watch them in a group then by myself, and its not just that I'm scared (if its done right I do get really scared) its that I like to talk about them, see what other people thought. Talking movies, especially horror or drama, is one of the best things ever for me.

But yeah. My mom bought me Changeling the other day. I'm sure I've said it on my blog already, but that show is sooo wicked good!! I still highly highly recommend it. What's really wicked cool is that the whole thing is fact for fact!! They didn't add this part, and make up that part, it is 100% what happened. I hate to read "based on a true story" only to find out that there was this one part, and the whole rest of the movie was made up. But I really like Changeling. Go see it.

I made this wicked cute shirt for Oliver today. Yeah, you're gonna see a pic. Here it is!!



I really like it. It took a little while longer than most shirts, but it was still fun to do. Making shirts for Fiona is a little harder, she has that whole curves thing. Oliver's are just straight down with sleeves. Pretty easy

So Adam Lambert lost. Its a shame. Mostly because he lost to Kris. Kris did not deserve it. Adam did, but in the end at least they don't own his soul. You wanna know who should have won? Danny Gokey. He always gave a great performance, he was never in the bottom whatever, I was disappointed to see him go. I think Adam deserved it the most, but I do not think he is American Idol material. I'm excited to see what he is gonna do. It was always such a wonderful treat to watch him week after week. I'm bummed that I don't get to see what he's going to do next for a little while. I will defiantly be buying his CD when he releases one.

Tonight I bought my first bag of Salt Water Taffy of the season. I can't wait til I have some extra money to go buy more. That and watermelon are my favorite things about summer. :)

Well, I really don't have to much more to say. At least this blog didn't jip ya any. I talked ALOT!! So hooray. Eat up all the bloggy goodness. Savor it. And then try not to get the shakes before my next one ;p Toodles

T-shirts may be my way to go....

I've been making alot of t-shirts for Oliver, and I made a really cute one today for Fiona. Here is pics. As always your comments are welcome on the clothes. Or anything else.


Yeah. I like the pics alot. There was a story-ish thing behind them. Its a game on a forum I go to. You put your Zune (or choice musical device) on shuffle, then take the first song that pops up and do a photo shoot about it. I found it entertaining.

But as I was saying, before I was so rudely interrupted by myself, I think I should specialize in t-shirts. I know I always think, "I wish they would make that into a t-shirt." and now I can be "They" and make the t-shirts.

Anyway. Not to much is going on my way. Just sewing away. I really do enjoy it. And I really do freaking love the shirts I've been making lately. Anyway. That's all I really have to say I suppose. So toodles for now

Today, Delia came to play

We had so much fun!! Check this out!!

Oliver and Fiona just hung out at first....

While Delia was busy taking glamor shots :P

Then they all climbed a tree. Delia was not amused :)

Then Oliver and Fiona went and laid in the grass.

"Shhhh.... Don't tell her we are sneaking off."

Deep in thought.... (I love this picture of Delia!)

"Hmmm... Were did they get off to?"

Sneaks

"Ah ha!!"

"This is no time for canoodling. It is time for.....

.....Dog piles!!"

Getting ready to go home

Sneaky Oliver....

And sneaky Fiona....

Ah, sweet sweet revenge :D


Yeah. We had so much fun playing with Oliver, Fiona, and Delia. It was great to make clothes and take pics with Neish. It makes me even more excited for my other girl to get here. EEE!!!

Yep. So that's all that really happened with me today. Hope you enjoyed looking at these pics almost as much as I enjoyed taking them :D Toodles

Yeah, Its been awhile...

But now I'm back. From outer space. And by that I mean I space out alot. So yeah. Good times. I had fun making a quiz about myself. If you have facebook you should check it. Yep. It was fun. My husband just saw Blink 182 in their first live performance in... like 6 years I think...? I could be wrong, and if I am he may correct me. Hooray for Blink being back together! They are pretty wicked cool.

So a little Adam Lambert news for you baby birds, he has made it to the top 2! I think he will win. I didn't realize how much I wanted him to win until he was in the bottom 2 the other week. Suddenly the claws came out for me. It was crazy. So I hope he does well. I may be having a celebration dinner with my mum next week if he does win it. Adam for the win!!! Woot!!

Anyhow. So there is this show called The Tribe. I get addicted to it off and on. I mostly watch the season with the whole Salene and Pride love story part. But watching older episodes I'm really starting to love the whole Bray and Amber love story part. Yeah. I'm all into it right now. Its almost embarrassing though. And if you look up the show you'll see why. But be careful. You may get drawn in. Its like a drug.

I've been wanting to watch The Mighty Boosh so much lately, but I gotta know what happens next. Sadly though, I do mostly know what happens. I just gotta keep watching The Tribe. Its sad. I did finally see a new Korean horror flick. This one was called A Tale Of Two Sisters. I really enjoyed it. I think I will go find it. It was so weird, and really really sad. I liked it though. I started watching another one called The Ghost Of Mae Nak, but it was SOOO dumb. The effects were terrible, which I can forgive usually, but the script!! UGH!!! Horrible. All the conversation was dull and awkward. Not real at all. Its hard to get into a movie when the people seem weirded out when delivering lines.

I made some new pants for Oliver and Fiona. Well, am making some new pants technically. I think I messed up my sewing machine!! I have no clue what happened, but everything is being weird on it now. Its a little frustrating. Maybe I should read the manual. Maybe. Or I can just keep trial and error-ing it. Either way. I guess I'll figure something out. I'm sad that it is broke though. I love sewing on it. Its fun fast and easy. Like my sister!! Ha ha! I hope you read this Karissa :) You know I love you!!

I found a thing to make shoes and I made some for Fiona, so she FINALLY has something on her feet. I think they aren't bad looking. I found a thread on the site that looks like an interesting idea for taking photos, and I may try it out. I don't know how good I am at photo taking though. I don't' think my photos turn out so well. Oh well. I guess you live and you learn as the saying goes. Or is that only a song? Either way my point gets across.

Yep. So the nub and just... I am addicted to The Tribe, I'm craving The Mighty Boosh, I am gonna fiddle with, and hopefully fix my sewing machine, My sister is easy ( :P ), and I am gonna work on taking photos. Yep. That's the current me in a nutshell. PS. Nutshells are uncomfortable. Toodles :D

Hello folks.

How's it going? Yeah, I'm not really interested. I ask that as a formality. You all come here to find out about me. Because I amaze you and you can not understand how I can keep up this awesomeness. So, as though hypnotized, you return. Day after day to study the enigma that is me. I don't blame you. I wonder myself how so much awesomeness can be packed into such an adorable little package. Really not fair in some ways. Amazing looks, wicked personality.....

But enough about me. I come here today for only a few reasons. 1 ReBoot. 2 The Mighty Boosh. Don't worry Mikey, I'll let you know when that part comes so you can stop reading.

But onto ReBoot. I loved this show as a child, so I sought it out. Well I have now watched every episode, and I have an opinion. The first season, fun. Really good at setting the whole thing up. Establishing relationships and personalities really well. Though it does get silly. But it was a kid's show. What can one expect. Season 2 set up the story line for the 3rd. Both really really good seasons. Those 2 alone are worth the watch. Very cool. But then the 4th season came.

The first, like half was pretty entertaining. But the second was predictable and really kinda annoying at parts. I was really not impressed, and I think the biggest problem was Bob's voice changing. Bob is the Guardian (Pretty self explanatory title) and in the first 3 seasons he had a kind, but firm voice, and that kinda is how is character is, but in the 4th he suddenly gets a deep gruff voice, that does NOT suite him at all. You can tell a couple other voices change, like Matrix, and Dot. I think Mouses does as well, but not as dramatically. All their voices at least fit them. But not Bob's. And Bob being my favorite character, this bothered me deeply. And I think that made it so I couldn't get into the show as much as the other seasons.

Here is a fun recap of season 2 and 3-
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hr0JUP6ZisQ

Anyway. The Mighty Boosh. I love this show. It is kinda sad to watch it on my own though. Mikey doesn't enjoy it, and I really don't see much of my other friends anymore these days. Maybe I should get new friends. But I digress. I really like it. It is about Vince Noir (Noel Fielding. If you've been paying attention I've been talking about him alot lately.) and Howard Moon (Julian Barratt). There is no set plot, or storyline, just alot of silliness.

Every episode they randomly break into song. Or crimps. Well, crimps are on like every episode. Anywho, I wish other people watched it, so we could make references together. And chuckle at the funniness that is Vince and Howard. Plus Vince is cute.

Here's a clip!!!!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9IjGNJPNyzU


That is my favorite song so far. They are making a movie that should come out in like 2010 or 2011. I'm wicked excited. I'll go see it if it comes to the US. But yeah.

Hm. I guess that's all I have to say at the mo'. So I'll leave you with those fun clip and entertainment. Toodles.

Hooray, me again!!

Ok. So here we are on another fun filled day. I learned to use my sewing machine and was even given some thread to use in it. I'm making everyone ("everyone" being each one of my dolls) more sock hoodies. Oliver's will be red and black, Fiona's will be pink and black, and .... I think I may go with Eryn.... well anyway, hers will be white and black. I'm excited to see how they turn out. Yeah, its a little lame to dress them similar I'm sure, but I don't care. I think they will look cute. They all have a similar style anyway.

But anyway. How I learned to sew. By Shaylin. Well Mikey's mom wanted us to go to church as her birthday gift this year. I was VERY apprehensive, as I tend to get social anxiety. I'm really surprised everyone is surprised by hearing this. I'm always very quite and uppity with new people. I have a hard time, but I really don't know why. People always love me in the end, but I get so worked up before hand. So (back to the point) going to church was a very terrifying idea for me. The whole night before I was very upset to the point were I cried a couple times. I stressed about wearing alot of black, having my funky hair cut, having multiple piercings..... all that stuff I assumed would make them not like me.

Well Sunday finally came. I got dressed in a black skirt (the only skirt I own) and a shirt that was a similar color to my hair (which had me worked up, because I don't wear light colored shirts very often) I felt very out of my element and I felt like I didn't look like me. Which did not help with my upset-ed-ness at this point. I kept myself calm by putting on this big jacket of Mikey's. I felt a little more like myself with it, and not like some stranger. (I kept the stupid jacket on the entire time. It got HOT!)

When we got there we sat in the main meeting house and just kinda chilled. The bishop came over and talked to us. I sorta told him who my grandma was (she was very active in the church when she lived here) and by sorta I mean it was told and I confirmed. I did very little speaking, other than "Yes" "No" "My grandma" "My dad is Mark" and that about covers every conversation. (At least on my part.)

Well it was testimony day. So really nothing to eventful happened. But while in Relief Society they talked about how the activity this week was sewing. How we could bring our own projects or do humanitarian projects, or whatever. I thought "Well I just sit around by myself most days and sew, maybe I should go to this thing. Get myself out of the house before I become a hermit of some sort."

Well that day came today. I found out the when and where, and having a slight panic attack, I went. I wondered around for a little while. Not knowing anyone or anything about the building I got a little lost. So I sat in the foyer for about 5 minutes, then hoped there would be enough people in the meeting area, that I could figure out where they were. I poked my head in to where I heard some ladies talking and was relieved to see a (sorta) familiar face. I went in and they sat me down and I started chit chatting. At first I was pretty quite, that's kinda how I roll, but I had only brought stuff to sew for Oliver and Fiona, so I brought them out of there bag. They were a big hit. Everyone loved them and talked about how beautiful they were.

And since I know quite a bit about them I was able to actually have some conversations. When I brought up that my occupation is pretty much just sewing for them, they asked if I used a sewing machine. I explained that I had one, but had no clue as to how to operate it. So they had me go pick it up, then sat down with me, and taught me how to thread it, what to do if it got stuck and other things. Then at the end of the fun time I asked if the lady wanted her thread back. She said no, and asked me what other colors I needed. I told her I have no colors for it at all. So she gave me all that she had brought!

I was so impressed and sorta surprised at how fast they were just wiling to be nice and be my friend. I have never been to a ward where people were so kind and giving right off the bat. I am so excited to maybe have some friends around me or something. I may keep going to church. I mean, it can't hurt anything.

So now I am sewing on a machine, and I am like a machine!! I made 2 pairs of jeans, and a hoodie, in about 4 hours-ish. I must say I really appreciate their kindness and generosity. Well that's all I have for today. I love you all. Toodles.

What's up with me today....

Well lately things have not been great, but they have also not been bad. Mikey got his car registered, and now we just need to get mine done, Luckily is shouldn't cost as much as last year, unless there is a problem I don't know about. I really really hope not. *crosses fingers*

I have been making clothes, and even though nothing has sold I'm pretty confident that things will sell. Me and Neish redid our thread yesterday, and I think it looks really nice and (hopefully) a little more buyer friendly.

Things with my house are pissing me off like crazy. Most of you know what's up, and since I'm not getting into it here for certain reasons, those that don't know I guess don't get to know. The nub and just though is that I have a job, or at least I have something going that will make money, Mikey has a job. We are the only ones paying bills. We are the only ones buying food. And we are always getting bitched out about stuff that is not our doing. Like when bills don't get paid, yet we are the only ones paying. There is a bunch of other stupid crap, but I'm really not in the mood to get into it at the mo'.

Oh! I made sock hoodies!! They are wicked cute. Here is a pic of some of them:








Sorry, my camera sucks balls. So you don't get the full effect. I'll try to take better ones. I like them alot.

So I'm a little angry with someone at the moment. Someone had a celebration recently. A friend tried to arrange a celebratory dinner, but Someone is difficult to get to. It takes money and gas, stuff not everyone has. Someone is going to be even harder to access soon, and is angry that no one could make it to the celebratory dinner for lack of funds or scheduling problems, or gas/car problems. But Someone is acting like a 2 year old and acting like no one wanted to go. In my opinion Someone needs to get over themselves and be glad that we all tried. Yeah it fell through, but that happens and Someone needs to not be so damn petty and whiny.

Ok. I'm done venting on that. So yeah. I have these cute ideas for more hoodies, I'm so super excited!! I really liked making them. I'm not sure when I'll be getting my doll, but I think I may name her either Eryn, or Kiah. (that's K I A, not Key A) But I dunno. I think I'll officially decide on a name when she gets here. I kinda like Roan also. Hm. Who knows.

Well I think that's all for now. Toodles.
