Oh Jilli, do you know about antique dolls?
I know hardly anything about them. Bev is the person who knows a lot about dolls, and I love talking to her about about them.
I love the doll houses, I really do. But I don't know enough about them to know what's worth what. But I put a couple of them on display on the den because what's the point of having a doll house if you don't play with it?
Exactly! If there is a doll house, it must be played with!
My Monday woe: the stress-triggered eczema flared up overnight. I am currently trying not to claw open the back of my neck.
Javachik, I've had the EXACT same thing happen to me. Probably because I was up at 4AM trying to finish a paper.
I'd say that's generally a safe response, ita.(Not that I've been to either site much since their ugly redesign.)
Cass, I am super impressed! I have done very little, though several of the things you mention, I need to do. I printed a couple things, and talked to my boss for half an hour.
Currently, I am about to double-check on something being wrong still, before I send the "Why is this WRONG?!" angry email.

Pretty sure it was a 4am thing for me, too. Ha!
I still have to do my final project which is due on Wednesday at 6 pm. All I've done so far is gather resources, but none of the writing is accomplished. I'm taking off of work early both today and tomorrow (but only two hours early, since I have things to do here, too) so I can go home and start cranking it out.
Have any of you ever seen the phrase, "much to do about nothing?"
The writer means "much ado" like shakespeare, right?
wrod.
At least, I think so.

One of my MiL's charms was that she felt the same way, so she'd fuss and dress up these 100some year old dolls in 100some year old dresses, change them into their Christmas finery during the holidays, etc. The dolls, alas, were all sold years ago, and the one remaining was bequeathed to her sister. I would have liked one of the dolls, but that's okay. We have several of the doll house sized ones to play with.
Doll houses are one of those hobbies that I would gleefully disappear into if I was independently wealthy. Because then I could decorate the doll house exactly the way I wanted, and I would have enough time to play with it.
Right now, I kind of need a doll house to keep track of logistics in the novel I'm working on. It's a completely valid reason!
