please don't tell me everything is wonderful now

More [bigger!] pics of Afternoon, the Pullip who is making me wish it were March, damn it.

Are there words to describe her awesomeness? Yeah. "Mine!" and "gimme!"

That said, I need to go see if Mom will run to the bank so I can order China China after I make a quick check through at ebay to make sure nothing is calling to me.

... Except she's asleep. So instead I have a cat sitting on my ear. No. Seriously.

I'm cold, and this is supposed to be the warmest day of the weekend. This does not bode well for me. *narrows eyes and finds a sweater* I swear man. Frickin' cold. [which is my mantra when it's cold, sung to the tune of jingle bells. frickin' cold, frickin' cold, frickin fricken cold...]

alright. I need to call the bank and see if the bill I think went through last time did, in fact, go through.

Then I'm going to charge my batteries as my minis should be here one of these centuries.

i can't wait til sunday. SLEEP!

stupid freakin' billy graham.

oh. and any book that hinges on an aussie band's drummer having to fake his death is beyond spiffy.

*le sigh* I want China China in the worst kind of way - even moreso than I want Alice. And have a better chance of getting her, too! But Afternoon ... she is lovely. I wonder how much the release will change, though, from the promo pics. It seems they always change a bit. Do you think it's odd there's not a single pic thus far without her head scarf on? I want to see her full hair, down. The lip colour is odd, but so pretty. She looks very mature. I think her and Nero would be great companions!

I'm babbling. *shares the Afternoon lovin'*

Afternoon lovin'. hee

Hee. She combines what I like best about Nero [the maturity and sophistication, if a doll can have such things] and throws in a bit of something I like about Oren [the color?] and smoosh in some lady-like Fourrure and voila. I think I have to have her.

I also want to see her hair down,though I'd imagine it's just going to make me like her more. In the bigger pictures it seems silvery, which is odd. Spiffy, but odd.

Annnnd I hope she's not the opposite of ChinaChina who bored me in every.single.promo pic until the last batch and then people got her, and now I'm shelling out a smidge more because...you know, she's purdy.


behold! mini-alice!

MINI ALICE?! I noticed the mini-Anne Shirley. But will they do mini's of all of them? And if so, does that mean there'll be a big Paja?

/me tries to contain her excitement and reminds herself that she doesn't like the mini's ... much ... yet ...

China China didn't do it for me at first - but put her in some 'street' clothes and wow!

I'm not sure. I'd say they were doing minis of the really popular/rare ones [which alice, leprotto, and moon would all qualify as], but as lovable as anne is, I don't think she'd count as rare/super popular. Hrmm. But I noticed mini alice when I was looking through the pics I saved from the aforementioned site [if you go back to their other folders you can see their display at a doll show, or for all I know the hong kong toyfair] to see if Afternoon was there [she was] and if she had her scarf off [she didn't.] And I saw mini alice and thought of you.

I'm hoping they make one, and that she's cute.

and for paja, you'd think they'd make a big version of her since so many people seem interested.
