Still no mini Cosmic Duo. I'm a bit worried. Nothing has ever taken this long to get here from the land of Canadia, or at least not in the PP vein, anyway. *frets and worries* I'd be a little less spazzy about this, only the mail no longer comes before noon. Or even around noon. No, he seems hellbent on not showing up until after I've gone to bed. It's a bit worrisome.
On the other hand, Nina arrived today. :D Pictures should appear as soon as I can work up the courage to restart the computer. Anyway, until then, we'll babble on about her.
She's adorable. Obviously on the plain side, but it works for her. Though I still wonder, what's with all the orange lips, man? Aside from that, love. Her hair is so soft, so not tangle-prone, though it's incredibly thin. Unlike most of the other dolls with long hair, it looks like someone saved you the trouble of thinning the hair out. Which I guess is good for diversity and for those people who don't like wondering if the sheer weight from the hair will snap their doll's neck... Possibly not so good for styling her hair. Luckily, I'm the anti-stylist.
She comes with three hair clips, her bag, and her cell phone which, I'm sad to say, is cooler than mine. Even when you take into consideration hers doesn't work. :p
She can stand on her own [yay, thinned hair!] and is just overly adorable in most ways. Also, the oddness that is body #3 works for her. [Yes, love/hate relationship with it.] Yes. I love you, Nina, but you need a name change.
Wheeee!
From Blender's Top 50 Worst Things to Happen to Music:
08
The Age of 27
For most of us, the Bermuda Triangle of morbidity lies between the ages of 50 and 53, after which, if you dodge cancer, heart disease and other bullets, you'll probably live for decades. For rock stars, the year to fear is 27 -- the checkout date for JANIS JOPLIN, JIMI HENDRIX, JIM MORRISON, KURT COBAIN, BRIAN JONES and blues legend ROBERT JOHNSON among others.
Honorable mentions to NICK DRAKE (at a wizened 26) and TIM BUCKLEY (at a boyish 28) -- who were, after all, eccentric.
The last bit makes me giggle, and it's been more than a week since I read it the first time.
