leene_chan | Hey now! (Reply)

I cannot believe how high those Suikoden books I had Kristen put up on eBay for me went for! O_O I know, one man's trash is another man's treasure, but jeez! Now that I think of it, they were pretty hard to find. I'm still having a hard time believing it, though. Gack!

That should help me pay off Anise! I still owe Kristen a little money, but I should be done paying her back by the end of next month. I wonder if there's anything else I can dig up to sell? There's that first Suikoden fanbook...damn, if only I hadn't had to buy that Utena DVD at the beginning of the month! I just thought that since it took so long to come out, it would sell out pretty quickly. Huum.....

I put the teal green 18mm eyes in Anise. They look kind of funny in the larger size, probably because the whites of the eyes are grayish as opposed to white. I guess it's more realistic that way, but she looks like she's in the middle of an allergy attack! I guess I'll get used to them eventually. I've been using 16mm eyes for so long, 18mm seem strangely big to me.

I mentioned briefly (somewhere) that Kristen and I are thinking of, instead of getting Mimi, getting a FCS F-08 girl for our birthday in October. Or at least trying to get one! I still want Mimi, but after buying Fuuka I wonder if I shouldn't jump into ordering another anime-style SD? It would take a lot of planning and some sacrifices (ha ha!). But it's a dream, and sometimes it's better to have a far-fetched plan for the future rather than spend time and money jumping from one thing to another. Even if we end up not being able to do it, at least thinking about it will stop us from wasting our money on little things. Right?

I've been sewing a lot more than usual. Unfortunately, now I'm out of snaps! I'm going to make a pair of pajamas for each of our SDs. I've already done Anise's, and I thinking of doing Saffron's in strawberry print, Fuuka's in a light floral and Miyako's in the same dark red I made her dress out of so long ago. ^_^ I know, pajamas are kind of dumb, but it's cold outside, and everything would seem much more cheerful and cozy if all the dolls had pajamas!

There's not much point to thinking too much about it now, but Kristen and I discussed getting our FCS doll with blue-green eyes. I'm not sure if we can really do this, but I guess we'll be able to eventually. What's the problem in brainstorming?
