My first Lalaloopsy.

She was actually my first one. ^^;;;; I was so traumatized by this past week that I wound up scoping out the Lalaloopsy sales, even though I was determined to save my money. I managed to get Crumbs Sugar Cookie for under $20 and free shipping from Target. I was looking for Mittens Fluff'n Stuff, but she had sold out, and I'm not sure what I really feel about her...her coloring is awfully strange. She would look nicer with her hair a shade lighter or darker. She is pretty novel, though.

I've been working on typing up Chapter 15, and realizing once again that it will have to be split into two chapters. The good news is that in that case, I've finished handwriting Chapter 15 already. ^^; It's deceptive, writing in a college-ruled notebook. I wrote a lot more than I thought I did. I know a lot of people don't do a handwritten draft, but I've never been able to just type stuff off the top of my head. I wind up with a lot of crossouts, and notes in the margin, and in the middle of paragraphs, even though I have a different notebook just for my notes...if anybody got a hold of my first draft, they'd probably think I was a real idiot. There's so much polishing that needs to be done.

I wish I could figure out how to make Lalaloopsy clothes. They have mighty strange figures...
