random.
I have survived another Thursday at work. I hate Thursdays when it's truck and cigs. It's just too much. This should be the last week of that setup for awhile. Next week will apparently be cigs, early breaks, and truck unloading. Bother. BOTHER.
Ah well. Ticked off to hear that apparently at least some jackass at work believes the overnight shift does nothing. That really did hurt my feelings and make me want to kick someone in the goddamned kneecaps. Reason prevailed and pointed out that if big boss-man doesn't agree, that's pretty much all that matters. So. Breathe again, self. Breathe.
A whole ton of new AG stuff was released. 21 "new" or revised dolls. Not a single red or orangish red in the bunch. Fuck your strawberry blonde. I wants red that a toddler can point to and say, "Red!" Not a red that would make said toddler cry because why would you ask a question to which there was no answer? Who would do that crap?
Anyway. I love at least the idea of a couple of them, but I'm all full up on crazy at the moment, so I can eye clothes and shtuff. Of which much of the new stuffs does nothing for me. Yay?
Random things that annoy me:
- White women telling everyone else on the planet that they're being racially insensitive. This doesn't bother me all the time, but pretty much anytime lately I see it online, I want to smack someone even if I do agree with everything else they might say/how they said it. [Which is to say, I agree with everything but the fact that their paler than moi face is staring at me from their av/icon/sig/whatever.] It brings the rage and I don't know why other than... it does.
- I lied. I know exactly why it bothers me. Because in person, I can actually hear the logic and not just hear this patronizing voice in my head basically trying to spell things out in words of the largest size they can possibly think of and still not be called on trying too damn hard, all while telling someone else that their actions are wrong/perceived as being wrong, and will always be wrong. Even if this doesn't happen to be the case. Which happens a fair bit, actually.
- People who waltz around saying things like, "OMG! I totally knew this... but couldn't tell you guys cuz..." Because then some other jackass will come in and say they totally knew, too and at the end of the day it's just annoying as fuck.
Now. We return to things that make me happy.
This was the AG collection [doll wise, obviously] before Jess and Elizabeth arrived.
You've got Kirsten, Sonali, Nellie, Ruthie, HTA*, Coconut, and Samantha. Behold!
HTA is my JLY #8 who never managed to stick to a name. HTA = Heather Tiffany Amber. I know. In reality she claims to be a spy and thus cannot tell you her real name or bad things will happen. She also has conspiracy theories [Rebecca put a hit out on Sam! The other Ruthies helped! Film at 11!] and is not totally... sane. I love her more now that I've realized she's insane. Which is as it should be.
That's Jess and Elizabeth for those playing along at home. I haven't any pictures of them just yet. Soon.
Little storybout Jack and Diane. Originally I was all kinds of excited about Jess. Then Elizabeth says she will be arriving after all, thank you kindly, and I'm a little worried because, well, I snagged her because I wanted to try QVC out and cuz hello, three outfits and a doll. Duh. And wouldn't you know that right out of the box, Jess I began to spazz in a bad way about and Lizbeth [deliberately opened a day later] was the gleeful reaction? Luckily washing Jess's hair and the marks off her face and foot went a long way towards love, but still. Lizbeth is back in her box while I decide whether to bring her out to play or just... wait for a little bit while Jess and I bond.
In case you wondered, I love both of the new Sonali molded girls and if I didn't have a no more Classic mold (other than Felicity and not!Samantha or a real but relatively inexpensive Sam) rule, I'd be all over one of the strawberry blonds. But I do, so I am not. Well. And I want Ivy more.
Trying to decide on holiday outfits for them all. Halloween is a bit easy.
I've got: a witch, black cat, Grecian goddess, and two ballet outfits that can be used. In a pinch, Kirsten's and Lizbeth's Meet dresses could be used, but that still leaves me one short.
Winter holidays I've got all of one outfit. Oi.
But it gives me something to think about at work.
Hmm. I have nails. Alert the media!
