Things you never said until you had dolls...

Jan 27, 2012

    1. This thread existed once, but for the life of me I can't find it. If someone finds it for me, tell me and I'll ask this one deleted.

      So..

      Things you never said until you had dolls.
      For me, the phrase would be: "Only $1400? That's cheaper than I thought!" about a Dollmore Lusion

      Things you never heard until you had dolls.
      This happened with an OT doll, but I lost the hand of a Pullip. A few months later, my sister texts me 'I just found a tiny hand in my car!' I truly LOL'd

      Things you never thought until you had dolls.
      This one I don't have a direct example of

    2. I was talking to my sister today, telling her about the new set of eyes I bought. I said something to the effect of "her close will be here tomarrow, but her eyes wont be here till mid febuary"

      My sister had asked me how I got a duct tape bracelet on my girl's wrist, to wich I replied "I have to take her hand off, so it stays on pretty much forever."

    3. Loads of things: like buying eyes and body parts. Just today, I was browsing lip gloss because they were shaped like small soda bottles. My daughter and I discussed how they would make perfect props.

    5. Actually my boyfriend and I were just talking about this the other day! I said something to the effect of "Hey would you mind if I bought a boy?" He gave me the oddest look, and I clarified I meant a boy doll...

      My sister also said something weird yesterday. She wanted to know what it was like to pick out a doll. She's expecting her first child, and I told her picking out/buying my first doll will kinda be like having a child. We had a whole conversation about me making clothes for her future baby boy and my future Soom girl :P

      "Oh good, my doll hates my ex as much I do." I say this mostly because he refused to cooperate with her when I let her see him when I was meeting with her about getting my stuff back. It was really funny.
      "Would you stop taking head dives off the shelf over the bed, I keep worrying I'll roll over on you."

      Things you never heard until you had dolls.
      "Is that a Chihuahua?" Yes, my doll has been mistaken for a dog somehow XD
      "That thing is like crawling out of the Tv in a horror movie creepy." Uh... yeah rude waiter at the restaurant I ate ate after a doll meet.
