Maybe not as Dreary as all that.

Now that I'm recovering from typhoid consumption grippe ague this rotten miserable bronchitis, I've been looking at the stuff I brought back from Tonnercon for myself. One was this unusual girl:

Isn't she prettyful? I found her in the vendors' room, walked by her observantly (ie, longingly) a few times, and finally I bought her on Sunday. According to her CoA, she's a 16" Agnes Dreary, a limited edition of 200 exclusively for the Tonner Company Store. She is on a Flexipose body, with the usual head sculpt for that line, which I always found very endearing. The vendors' room was the first time I'd ever seen her, although later I found several photos of her online. I think I just had never really looked at the Dreary line in any depth. If I had seen her when she was first released, I would probably have either bought her or seriously jonesed for her, despite my usual preference for blondes. Her coloring just works for her so beautifully.

I have clothing plans for her. She's going to have sundresses for summer, in rather sober colors. Because that would be fun. Ooh, and hair clips. Lovely dark hair clips. With black sunflowers.

I also bought myself the Christmas Morning Patsy, after seeing her in the sales room and falling in love. I haven't opened her yet, she'll be a nice reward for when I'm recovered fully. Here's the Official Picture, in case you hadn't seen her (and OMG the puffballs on the jammy feet OMG!!):

 It seems to have been the Week of the Raven-Haired for me. I did buy blondes and redheads...for other people. These are the only two dolls I got for myself.

Yes, I am a serious sucker for Teh Cute.

    I had been considering if your web hosting іs ОК?

    No longег that I'm complaining, however slow loading cases instances will often affect your placement in google and can harm your high-quality score if ads and marketing with Adwords. Well I am including this RSS to my e-mail and can glance out for much more of your respective exciting content. Ensure that you replace this again very soon..

Please leave your thoughts. I don't expect universal love but I do expect civil commentary. If you're a hater, don't play. Thanks!
