Yikes I've been remiss in my updating! But the onset of the holidays will make everything topsy-turvy. I had an eye infection over Thanksgiving to boot, which I'm still on medication for, so I've been out of comission for a while, but I'm better now. Especially since I went a little wild and bought myself tons of stuff from American Girl to cheer myself up. *sheepish grin* But they're retiring Samantha so I HAD TO! My inner 10-year-old would not let me go through life without those doll clothes! So there!

THEY'RE RETIRING SAMANTHA? WHAT?! YES, THIS NEWS CALLS FOR ALL CAPS.

[newmoonstar]

YES, THEY ARE! AND YES, IT DOES!!! I was like "WTF?!?" when I found out, and I missed getting Samantha's Middy Outfit by ONE DAY. I've wanted it since I was 4, and I'm ONE DAY too late. Cruel, cruel irony. So naturally I bought a zillion other things to make up for it. The fact that it's my last chance is such a convenient rationalization. ;)

But OMG I'M GOING TO SIT SHIVA FOR SAMANTHA OR SOMETHING THEY ARE CRUELLY DESTROYING A CHILDHOOD ICON BEFORE IT'S TIME!

I have to order her! My niece got my Samantha ages ago (though I still have Molly) and I always meant to buy a new one and -- !!

I CANNOT BELIEVE I MISSED THIS NEWS. We must sit shiva together!!

By the by, your icon is strikingly pretty! :) What's it from?

A quirky little Japanese series where countries are something-like-Olympian Gods (sort of like "This is the spirit of America!") and personified as people. It's very strange! But people make lovely icons. That's Austria.
