Monster High, comics, and movies!

[milleniumgypsy]

First off, a note about my Loki comics! Scottie is completely amazing and took one of my comics, vectorized it, and coloured it! I need to do a little bit more with it, and then I think I will post it here soon, hopefully tomorrow!

Today was interesting! It was payday and when we looked at the bank we found more money there than I was expecting! There was something negotiated with my union that got us back some money, it had something to do with my health insurance plan. Most of that money is going towards bills, but we got a few fun things!

First off, we wanted to check out some candles so we went to Walmart. While there, we stopped by the doll aisle, of course! THERE WERE SO MANY THINGS OMG. The Spectra 13 wishes DJ set! Abbey and Heath (which I really, really want)! The Cleo and Ghoulia lab partners set! The Die-ner pack with Operetta and Lala! A bunch of 13 Wishes dolls! The 13 Wishes Cleo with the playset. The Ghouls Night out 4 pack. I didn't even know what to do with myself. I was just like

Side note, Scottie is amused that I tend to say "Oh my ghoul"

Scottie actually nearly picked up the Spectra for me earlier in the day, because he's amazing and knew that I'd love her (which I did), but he wanted to make sure that I got the doll that I most wanted so he waited. He felt relatively safe leaving her since she was more expensive than a single doll due to the playset, so there was a better chance there would still be one there later after work.
So I was torn, but then there was this baby doll behind me in the aisle that was motion sensitive and kept making these creepy noises. I decided that I was officially done with listening to it, so I was going to put it somewhere else (really I just wanted to punt it out of the store but ya'know). While moving it down the aisle, I saw on the back wall more MH dolls... and I saw her. CATRINE. CATRINE YOU GUYS! I HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR HER FOR SO LONG!

So, I finally have her! There were two, and I picked the nicest looking of the two. Just, so happy!

I'll have to post pictures of her tomorrow. I've felt really sick today so I haven't been terribly productive. n_n'

Literally the first words out of my mouth when I saw we had some extra money were "Sooo we can get The Avengers now?!" xD But there's that awesome box set so I'm not sure. After thinking about it for a bit, I'm probably not going to do that because it's rather expensive (though it's not overpriced for what's in it), and that's a lot of money at once. It makes more sense to get The Avengers by itself. BUT there's another thing I really really want, and that's The Hollow Crown. I'm thinking that I'm going to pick that up on Amazon first, and then get The Avengers next month.


How did it get this late?

Yes yes Hiddles I know. xD

Congrats on Caterine! She's really grown on me, after my initial reluctance with her. I'll be interested to know your thoughts. :D

You should have told me, my walmarts have like 10 Catrines :D but I'm happy you got her. I'm debating between her and Twyla >>

YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYY I'm so happy you finally got Catrine!!!! \o/ (Oddly, when I was in Walmart yesterday, they had 4 Catrine's, who they haven't had in forever...is she shipping again?) They have a space for Catty Noir, too, which made me happy. (I want the 2-doll Die-ner so badly...well, the dolls, not the Die-ner but I have to cut back so likely will pass on them.)

You can find Tom's version of The Hollow Crown on Amazon? I've looked before and found an older version, but not Tom's. It's going to be available on iTunes though, and airing on PBS on the 20th of September.

Heath and Abbey are adorable (and deboxed and literally next to me right now, lol). I with the black table hadn't just been a prop - I may have to figure out how to make them an actual table or just put them to work in the Coffin Bean or something (or Die-ner eventually, I suppose). I hope you're able to get them eventually.

Yay for getting the doll you wanted - I'm curious, how many are there? Do they keep bringing out new ones all the time?

That's hilarious! *I* usually go with my favorite...

"OH MY SWEET CATBUS!!!!".

It makes me grin so.

Yay for extra money! Also yay for finding a Monster High doll that you've wanted for so long! I love that feeling of finally tracking something down :)
