Pardon me while I just do the bare minimum to exist right now, but I'm at that stage where things are just piling up and I can't work up the fucks to give. I'm not sure why, though I do feel a change coming. Maybe because it's finally starting to feel like summer's lessening her stranglehold on us. Maybe it's simply because I'm going to try and drag myself out of this feeling of meh.
I guess we'll see if that works.
Anyway. As I avoid any real thoughts, let's look at something I stumbled across this morning:
In celebration of American Girl’s 35th anniversary, designer Carly Cushnie reimagined the looks for the brand’s original six historical characters. Carly appreciates American Girl’s mission to inspire and empower girls with courage, kindness, and strength of character. Carly chose Girls Who Code as the beneficiary of this auction as they seek to close the gender gap in technology.
If you're curious as to the bids/want to see them they're up for 2 more days.
If you just want to see pics/read the descriptions, I've got you covered.
( Reimagine this. )
You can definitely tell when the news of these dolls hit FB/fandom because this morning most were sitting at around $300-ish, but two hours later Sam was over a thousand bucks. Yeah, this fandom makes me feel exceptionally poor sometimes.
Lesse. What else. Oh, the winter holiday dolls dropped but we'll talk about them tomorrow (I mean, you're free to run to the site and look and drop $250 on each if you like), and the World By Us stuff has leaked but it's officially being debuted this evening on Facebook and then should be for sale tomorrow so we'll wait on that as well. Ditto the holiday celebration outfits where I might have to break into my "in case of emergencies" fund.
Now. To go back to doing very little while feeling grumpy.
