this is not a sims post

so, hi.

Sunday was my grandma's surprise 80th birthday party that we've been planning for weeks. Her brother flew down to surprise her but she didn't want to go to the restaurant so he had to go to her house and be like HI I'M HERE SO NOW YOU HAVE TO GO. Ha. Food was good, family was interesting as always, all was well.

And I did get that Frankie I mentioned hiding in Ross. And somehow I missed that she is apparently from Spain, and her box is almost entirely in Spanish. I wish I could say that I'm just that ~fluent~ in Spanish that it doesn't seem odd to me, but I am definitely not. I didn't know until we were waiting to check out and Boyfriend was like "why is this in Spanish" and I was like "wat." Apparently I was just spellbound by one of the most perfect dolls that there ever was (the most perfect dolls in the world are Draculaura, Cupid, and this Frankie).

She is so perfect, you guys :') My two Frankies are happy together. No Cupid yet, but we did see her label on a shelf in walmart, so. I'ma take the item number from the website and demand to be given my doll finally once and for all. The wishlist is now:

-Cupid (my soul craves this this isn't a want or a wish this is a need)
-Skull Shores Lagoona
-Skull Shores Frankie
-Operetta's been sort-of released and she is AMAZING holy God NEED HER TOO so much money will be spent :(
-A Cleo (I don't really care which, if it's a cheap one fine by me)
-An Abbey
-Dead Tired Draculaura BECAUSE SHE IS PRECIOUS and I've been looking at her soft eye paint and screw it, I am in love. I will admit it.
-The Killer Style Frankie and Draculaura. Yep, still.
-The create-a-monster pack with the pink werewolf/vampire whatever it is thing SHE'S CUTE OKAY.

We tried to make the modelling clay for Bee's body, but that clay isn't really suitable, so we made a body out of styrofoam. And by we I mean Boyfriend made it and his dog Snuggles and I supervised. Actually Snuggles just went to bed. I didn't want him to eat styrofoam. She can't really sit up so I'm working on finding a way to prop her up. I've stuck a toothpick in her neck so her head won't fall off so maybe the solution is MOAR TOOTHPICKS? Maybe? We shall see!

I'm still playing sims, just not my Marauder legacy sims rn.

why is the picture Harry Potter

hi

I couldn't sleep so instead I sat and tried to fiddle with Bee some more. Moar toothpicks was, indeed, the answer. I stuck two more in her neck, then one in each styrofoam thigh so I could stick it to her styrofoam torso and her legs wouldn't keep flopping off. (Her arms don't seem to need any extra help staying in her dress). I took Original Recipe Frankie's stand (Frankie is currently posed sitting so she doesn't need it) and stuck her on it. After a lot of careful fiddling, she's standing! I also colored the styrofoam bits that show with a yellow bic marker and she looks tons better. Her head still lolls backwards so she looks like she's looking up all the time. It's cute if you're looking down on her, but up high on my dresser she looks kind of silly (I've squashed it down as much as possible so she doesn't look quite so weird). Still cute though. She shall be the Luna Lovegood of my dolls, since she looks so dreamy and has gigantic bee eyes. I think now that she has a body (sort of) and is standing and has an official My Monster High Dolls Friendship Bracelet I can officially count her as my 7th doll. I'll take a picture sometime, maybe after I fix her up some more.

I wish I could sleep. I shall try now.
