Living Dead Dolls, Emily the Strange & Ambien

Multiple entries today, too many different subjects to cover. I now and the proud owner of both Lottie and Tragedy Living Dead Dolls. I bought them both on eBay, but later found out that Hot Topic still carries the second issue �exclusive� Tragedy Goth girl doll for less than I paid for it (of course). Apparently the first issue had red tissue paper in her coffin, and the second has purple, which is what I bought because I thought the purple looks better. Lottie is from a discontinued series, though, so I think I got a good deal on her. Both dolls are still shrink wrapped, I�m hoping I can remove the shrink wrap and still be able to display them in their coffins. I wouldn�t mind having Lottie keeping me company at my desk for awhile :-) I already have a menagerie of little critters surrounding me, including two bats, a Halloween kitty, Xena, a big and small Batgirl, the Barbie on her Harley Davidson ornament, a gold Lucky Cat and assorted pagan deities. And a Lily Munster and Samantha doll, and two Wonder Womans. That�s not even counting everyone staring at me from my surrounding bookshelves and the life masks across the room (those are my husband�s). More stuff to dust...

�I bought some Emily the Strange stuff the other day. I searched on eBay and found a bunch of stuff I hadn�t seen before that I had to have. Then, I actually checked around to the outlets that carry her stuff to see everything available and compare prices and ended up getting a journal from eBay, the hardcover book and the lunch box with the Emily and her kitties on it from the Emily/Cosmic Debris site, and a cell phone cover and a little key chain from Hot Topic. I was really tempted by an Escher cat shower curtain and bathroom rug with her spooky kitties on it, but I managed to pass. There are two cell phone covers, one with Emily big and her cat small, but I opted for the reverse version, I�ve been in a kitty mood lately. There�s also another lunch box available, but the top of my shelves are full so I decided to pick the first version. They have some darling tee shirts, but most of them are in junior sizes and styles and I need a full-sized tee. I don�t look good in little baby doll tees with cap sleeves :-( Be sure to click on the site map and freebies link to download the spooky desktop pics while you�re there.

Yea! My doctor finally renewed my Ambien prescription, I�ve been completely out the last two nights and my alternative solutions to help me sleep have been causing strange side effects & bizarre dreams. I took Klonopin the first night, and was ultra groggy all day afterwards. I used to take that every night, no wonder I used to sleep to late every day. Last night I took a whole Xanax instead of the half I normally take, and slept till about 10:30, then woke up and fell back asleep to have the exhausting dream described below. I like having vivid dreams, but not every night.

The cold rain has begun, it's supposed be cold, wet and windy the rest of the week. I just drove to the grocery store and sat in their drive-thru pharmacy line for 15 minutes waiting to get my meds. Too cold and wet to actually get out of the car and go inside. I sat in the car and sang along to Avril Lavigne while I waited. I�m sure the people in the car behind me wondered about my sanity, but I�m at that weird �don�t care what other people think about me� point. I guess that�s why I ramble on to you good people about my psychotic dreams ;-)
