I hope that everyone on my FL in the US had a wonderful Thanksgiving, and that everyone in general just had an awesome day. :3

Me and Scottie had a lovely day. We cooked up too much delicious food, as always, so we made up lunches of leftovers for me for the next week. xD I'm excited about that!

I also took a few pics, I'll probably post those tomorrow.

Scottie also went out with me to look at a couple of those early Black Friday things. Mainly I wanted to try my luck finding the TRU Monster High Black Friday deal dolls. Of course, I have never done anything with Black Friday before in my life. I don't like dealing with crowds, I've never had any interest in standing in line forever in the cold at 5 am or something so I've just never done anything with that. We generally stay in to avoid all the crazyness.

Unfortunetly I didn't find the dolls. I found one Skull Shores Ghoulia (not on sale) and a couple of Lagoona hydration stations (also not on sale) in one location, random Monster High things like one bathtub, make-up, and books... but otherwise no dolls. I'd gone to where they normally have their MH displays (after getting herded down an aisle that I hadn't realized was blockaded all the way down by displays) and there was nothing there. I was so confused. And all the people everywhere was kind of insane. Scottie even helped me look, but no joy. I couldn't even figure out what was on sale! Even if I found the dolls though, the line in the store wrapped around the building. I have no idea how long I would have ended up in line if I'd found a doll. o_O

Then I went to Michaels because they had a couple good general coupons, but it was busy in there too, though not nearly as bad, and I didn't have anything specific in mind past normal supplies. We decided that since we're not in dire need of anything it was probably best to just go home.

In other news, Scottie gave me an early birthday present the other day! It's a Crayola kid's airbrushing set! xD I do have a real airbrush and compressor, but it's so loud for an apartment and I don't have a well ventilated space to work in, so I haven't really been able to use it. Scottie found out about this other product though and he thought I might have some fun with it! xD I'm looking forward to playing with it! :D He's such a sweetheart. :3

I braved Walmart and got my first 2 Monster High Dolls last night that were on sale for $10! I got Lagoona and Frankie! I absolutely adore them!! I was so excited to log on this morning to tell you about it! I definitely want my next doll to be Ghoula though, I love her kinda nerdy chic look.

It's totally not the best lighting, pose or pic but http://s20.beta.photobucket.com/user/mandakitty489/library/Monster%20High%20Dolls

Also Happy Early Birthday!

Yay, that's exciting! I have that Lagoona and Frankie, I got them before Black Friday though! I'm glad that you were able to get them at that price, it's a really good deal! :D I see you have Venus too, did you get her at the same time? She's super cute. :D I have here too, but I picked her up off of the monster high marketplace lj so I don't have her pet or clothes.

I love Ghoulia's nerdy chic look too, she's one of my favorites (though it's so hard to pick a favorite! lol)

Thank you for the early birthday wishes! :D

I went out in search of the cheap MH dolls too, but by the time I got there this morning (we were driving back from SC last night, and Andrew had to work today so we went to bed when we got home) there was just an empty shelf where they used to be. I did find Scaris Rochelle though!

Target had a ton of wave 2 Lagoona this morning as well, but I controlled myself and left her there. Gotta save money for Christmas presents!

That's too bad that you didn't find any BF deals! :( That is really neat that you found a Scaris Rochelle though! I adore Rochelle, she's totally one of my most favorite dolls. :3

I'm not great at dealing with crowds for shopping. I can do it for conventions but even there when it gets really busy I start looking for an elsewhere to be. Kudos for giving it a try.

Scottie is awesome, that sounds like it's going to be such a fun present :)

Yeah, that's not something that I normally do either! We normally hide out at home and avoid all the Black Friday nonsense. I like deals of course, but all the Black Friday stuff sounds so stressful. xP

He is! I've been playing with the airbrush tonight, it's a lot of fun. :D
