Stuff and things, and the LJ writer's bock question.

[Error: unknown template qotd]

Ahahahahaha. Have you met me? I traveled to another state to see two back-to-back My Chemical Romance concerts. I'm going to see Adam Lambert next week.

Mind you, I'm almost completely ignorant of mainstream music, just because I don't listen to the radio or watch whatever passes for "music video" channels any more. I learn about new music by friends going "Listen to this! Watch this video!" (Or in some cases "Watch this pretty ice skating boy do a routine to Lady GaGa!") But I think obscure bands becoming popular is a good thing, because that means the musicians can (maybe) start supporting themselves through their art.

Other stuff: Yes, I did get a Monster High Draculaura doll. She is sitting at home in her box, and I am waiting for the right time to introduce her to Lucretia Evangeline. Who may be slightly miffed about the new addition to the doll family, because HELLO, Lucretia is pining to become a vampire, and Draculaura already is one. I suspect Lucretia is going to be writing some angsty letters to G. (the Infamous BlueJay's vampire boy), while Hellboy shakes his head at her.

From Ye Olde Tumblr Feed: A current photo of Andrew Eldritch. Huh.

I've been begging my husband to get me the Frankie Stein doll ... She reminds me of Zombina and the Skeletones and I want to knit tiny clothes for her.

So far, he does not have the desire to buy me dollies. I must keep trying.

I want a Frankie Stein doll, too. (And you're right, she does have a Zombina and the Skeletones air to her!) Thankfully, the Stroppy One, while perplexed by my doll insanity, is also amused by it.

Congratulations on the latest edition to your doll family!

I'm pining for a Draculara and a Frankie Stein. I may have to give into temptation. Thankfully my husband finds my doll enamorment amusing.

Good job of getting Draculaura. Did you get one with lots of pink in her hair. I got two one for me and one for the Granddaughter (it has lots of pink in the hair) and I got her Clawdeen Wolf and Frankie Stein as well. I am such an enabler:)

My Draculaua is standing next to Evangeline getting a rather perplexed look at the moment. I think the dollies will eventually like each other, especially when I get Evangeline's "fangs" made. I have tried tiny toothpick ends painted white with a tiny bit of dental wax for adhesion and they stay in fine unless I move her around a lot. The next attempt will be to form some fangs over a needle with white polymer clay. She really does need fangs I just don't want to make them permanent.

I suggest that Lucretia doesn't get to write any angsty letters until [livejournal.com profile] cupcake_goth does some more saleable writing. :::gives a Stern Look.:::

:::giggles at the thought of what Hellboy must be going through:::

Ahem.

:::resumes Stern Look:::

Has the Stroppy One outsourced his Stern Look duties?

::giggles, runs away with dolls::

Nope. But the Kid's out of town - I've got extra Stern Looks just itching to be used. :-)

Yeah, be careful, I tried some and BOOM!

Still, we should see you guys sometime soon, it's been... since March?

[identity profile] torreybird.livejournal.com 2010-07-13 11:46 pm (UTC)(link)
March? Well, it's only April... right? :-S

Seriously, I can't believe that it's been more than a year since the last function at our house - and that was the wedding. It's ridiculous! Can we have you over for steak and cake?

[identity profile] stroppy-baggage.livejournal.com 2010-07-14 12:04 am (UTC)(link)
Steak & cake? Why are you even asking? Of course, you can!

I saw Draculaura at the store yesterday and thought she was heavenly~ I'm very envious of you x3

[identity profile] laceybones.livejournal.com 2010-07-13 08:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Where can you buy her? Besides online. I really want to get Draculaura so my new Deliah Noir doll will have a friend. :)

Oh ... My friend just pointed out to me that there is a MonsterHigh cartoon.
So nowni an going to watch it.
:D

Hellboy could shake Ingrid at her instead, too.
