House fire equals a doll? i think yes 8D
Posted: Tue Jul 17, 2012 6:30 pmI've been looking at dolls online for YEARS now.... i think of them pretty much all the time. Sadly I haven't gotten one yet. 
I've wanted one since we first got the internet when i was like 11 and I'm 20 now. 9 years of wanting, thats almost half my life! O_____O;
Luckily (and i say that VERY LOOSELY) we've had a kitchen fire recently and I have a large plushie collection worth quite a bit of money.... and some of them were lost to smoke damage. As far as i know, the ones i treasure most are safe... but i've lost a bunch i never had much attachment to.
Since i couldn't afford one before of course the money I'd get to replace them goes towards getting a doll! So far i got around $400 in damages for my stuff (with more to come). My mom is being difficult though and just hording all the money we've gotten, heres and mine, and spending it stupid things like make up and clothes when she has gotten pretty much all her stuff back unharmed...
Yesterday she told me i could get a doll and i gave her a few options of ones i wanted. She got hung up on the most expensive one like i was demanding it and flipped out on me for several hours. She agreed we could talk again today when she finally calmed down, took her awhile to realize that it wasn't even my main choice it was just one of the ones i liked a lot.
So hopefully later today i might be ordering my first doll. I came to this site to try to make friends who also have dolls or are interested in them. It'd be nice to be able to talk to people about them. Only one i ever talk about my pre-mature doll obsession with is my boyfriend and he thinks they're creepy ^u^||
then again he also thinks im really creepy most of the time.... lol
