Moving right along.

I finished with Chapter 16 and handed it over to Lauren to review. I hope she goes easy on me. ^^;;;; But if I deserve it, I deserve it, and if I don't, I don't.

I also joined the legions of SHEEP when I got my first Monster High doll in the mail. Uh...Mattel had Dead Tired Ghoulia on sale...? I like the fact that the Dead Tired series doesn't have the heavy makeup that most of the Monster High dolls have. I'm a bit disturbed that she came with a bucket of brains as a snack, though! Those better be simulated brains, Ghoulia! I love how they make a big deal about how Draculaura is a vegan and would never suck anybody's blood, but Ghoulia eats brains!

Uh...I haven't actually deboxed her yet...hopefully there's a better explanation to this.

I might actually break down and play Ao no Kiseki now. I hit a wall in the PC Engine version of Ys III You know there's a problem with the gameplay when a boss keeps sending you flying across the screen, and you can't even tell HOW. The way the enemy sprites animate in that game is laughable. The music is pretty rockin', though.

I was charmed by Dead Tired Ghoulia (her original bio indicates that her favorite food is junkfood, so I'm choosing to believe that her Dead Tired snack is just in the SHAPE of brains... the zombie equivalent of animal crackers or Pepperidge Farm Goldfish) until I realized that her "polkadots" were actually blood-splatters. For some reason, that was just too... visceral for me.

The Dead Tired series is probably my favorite series for the same reason you mentioned... the make-up is lighter, so the girls all look fresh-faced and more innocent. It's a pity that Clawdeen only comes with the bunkbed playset, since she's probably my favorite version of Clawdeen so far.

I have finally seen two dolls on sale today. I went into a store-cafe to have breakfast, and they weren't there. As I came out I noticed there were two dolls where there were none before: they dosify them! They were Spektra and Abbie, I think.

The complements of those dolls are just... no words.
