Oh, my gosh. I found this site that lets you make your own doll. You choose everything about her — hair, face, clothes, shoes, everything! Laugh if you will, but I am SO into this — I am 7 years old again!
I remember when I was a kid, there were certain types of playing I did when I was stressed — dolls, for instance. But when I was in that mode, I didn’t make up elaborate scenarios for them or act anything out, like I might usually do. No, I just dressed them or combed their hair. Over and over. It was a little OCD, I guess. (So this is what I did last night to escape the impending doom of real life. Whee! Clearly, I have my priorites straight.) Now, I’m kinda bugged because the background here is supposed to shimmer and move and generally dance about, but it ain’t doing it. Back in olden times, we’d have called this a “gyp.” Whatever, ya gyppers.
So this is my worry doll, I guess.
But check out her cool tennies. Ooooh! Maybe a new look next week!
Oh, and fellas? No need for you to feel gypped. They have boy dolls, too. Haha!
YAY! FUN!!! I’ve got mine up already. Hee hee. Can we make cookie dough now and watch a scary movie?
I know. It’s just so …. childish and fun!
Before you click through – are you SURE that this isn’t some cyber-voodoo thing that invalidates our Christianity? 100% with a cherry on top? Not causing scandal or near occasions of sin?
I want those jeans that your doll is wearing. She looks so cute.
Hey Tracey, did you take the JavaScript version or just the pic image. The javascript will look the same as the one you made, all glittery and disco-y cool. Oh that’s the one I made, anyway. JS version, that’s what you need.
Btw, thanks for the advice… we don’t need no poo flingers, that’s for sure!
Lauren — I DID the Java Script thingy and it didn’t work. I don’t think my blog will let me do that. Let’s just go with that. It couldn’t be anything I’M doing wrong.
red — I have jeans kinda like that and — as nephew Joseph says, “let me tell you” — they ARE cute. And I LOVE Converse All-Stars. Hi-top, low-top, ANY top! Just love ’em!
Nightfly — Well, not 100% cherry on top, nooo ….
ACK! And I just realized in that first sentence of the post where it says “lets you make your own doll,” I had typed “LET’S” at first!
The horror. The HORROR!!
I have something similar to this on Yahoo Messenger…and I love her. She is like a paper doll for adults with endless possibilities.
Sometimes we need to be seven again, when the problems were simple and the solutions simpler.
I was going to ask the same thing as Nightfly, just didn’t make it in time, LOL
I have the yahoo version too, aren’t they fun? My girls were looking over my shoulder ooh-ing and aah-ing over all the fun stuff they could do on that site, me thinks they’ll be back!
Thanks, tracey! That’s a great one to bookmark for those rainy days!
