"Why can't we give ourselves one more chance?"
Hmm, I did finish up my Lantern Festival pics, and hopefully I'll post them sooner than later. XD; But this meme looked interesting so it comes first. ;D

So many things I *should* read. XD; Meanwhile, probably half of the ones I read were for school, though I few of them I really loved. I've been sort of curious about some Jane Austen stuff but have yet to pick any up...
On a different note entirely. XD;
Lately I've been pondering eventually getting another resin girl... a more feminine one, and perhaps not along the femme fatale line like Mara ;) I really have no idea what mold, and I intend to take my time in the consideration process (and maybe I'll change my mind about the whole idea), but I just wanted to stop and ask...
With all of the companies and molds out there nowadays, how on EARTH do you find a doll when you don't have a particular one in mind? @_@ Searching around with the old, established companies isn't a problem, but there are newer ones I forget about, or don't know where their sites are, or don't even know about yet. ¬_¬ Where do I even start? T_T
Not looking for suggestions on head molds -- though comments on body types are always of interest if you feel like sharing ;)
I have to actually *stop* myself from thinking up a character for proto-girl; I've already got a half-formed idea for her placement in the Forgotten Realms crew. ::twiddles thumbs:: Knowing more details will just make me want her more, and dammit, I will devote my savings to getting a PS3 first!! >_<;;
Whee, Monday. o_o
