Retail Therapy?
...featuring Monster High dolls. No, I haven't gotten into them, I've been helping hyperbolicsquid find the ones he's looking for. This entails a lot more than most would think. xD I've seen the inside of more Walmarts and Targets in the last few weeks than I have in the last five years.
I do confess, when I lucked out and called my local Walmart Supercenter to discover that they had a box of the B&W Skull Shores Frankie Stein that hadn't been put on the floor, and I snagged 3 of the 6 (all claimed, sorry.) I kept one for myself. Their proportions are actually pretty interesting, I was thinking at trying my hand at making some clothing for them, and I needed a doll for that. Makes sense to get the doll that was only $4 and change, and came with no accessories beyond a bracelet that would have to be cut off and a stand. ;)
For fun, I took a few photos after dunking her head in hot water to get the hair gunk out:
Legs for miles, these dolls have...

In other news, just about done with my Small Fandom Bang fic, it'll be posted on April 20th. Still unemployed, but I gave myself another month's leeway with bills by selling nearly $1k in anime stuff at the Anime Conji swap meet. Protip: Accepting credit cards goes a looong way. I got one of those Square readers for my Samsung Stratosphere, worked great. :D
Not done a lot else lately of note besides that, I think. I'm boring. ;)
