Entered a potential bidding war. This is going to suck if it keeps going on cause there's a limit to how much I can allow myself to bid. If it reaches that limit and I'm still outbid I'm going to cry. Ok, not really but I'm going to be upset.

Didn't watch what I was doing in auctions and spent more than we should've *headslamindesk* -_-

waaaaaaaa! T_T
I boiled my first head sculpt and it cracked badly because it shrank too much over the foam core. Not sure if should have made the core smaller and the walls thicker, or what... All the tutorials use styrofoam cores. Maybe I should try aluminum foil wrapped in plastic wrap like some people.

At least I can glue it together and cast it...

Polymer clay? You can use an air dry clay or paper mache base. I was able to bake paper mache paste inside Sid, got it wet again and it carved out easy enough.

Yep, sculpey. Thanks for the tip! I'll keep that in mind for the next one.

T__T starting tomorrow, I have three days of work in a row, 8 hour days... I only work 4 days this week, so why did she lump them together like that?? I swear my manager sits there when she's doing the schedule and goes "How can I torture my employees this week? *evil laugh* "
I have so many dolls that I can't fit all their names in my signature anymore. @__@

I feel your pain, Lamia. Tomorrow marks my seventh day straight working without a day off... Ugh. My manager comes back on Friday, so I hopefully have off Friday and Saturday. Then I work again Sunday Monday, and who knows what the rest of the week brings.

Hahah I really don't. Not right now at least. But any time I go upstairs to use the potty, or grab something from my bedroom or whatever, I step into the doll room for a minute or two and fuss with someone or do a layer of pastel blush on a face up... or stitch a quick seam, or pin a pattern piece or whatever the case may be. The condition of my workspace reflects how little time I have. XD You can see why IMVU has taken a back burner.

I can NOT believe what I just did. I'm such a fool -_-

I'm looking for another tiny Planetdoll girl, so I'm browsing eBay, when I find a cute little one. I'm not looking to buy her at all because I want either WS or Tan and she's NS, but I click "Watch this item" and login to add her to my watch list... then on the next screen I click another button without really looking what it says and next thing I know is the "Congratulations you bought this item" message!! What?? I'm sweating like mad. I don't get it. How could I make that mistake..?? I'm an experienced eBay member and as far as I know they ask at least one extra time if you really want to continue buying something. I can't believe I missed what I clicked exactly. D'oh!!!

I contacted the seller, I hope they'll be friendly because eBay themselves can't help in these cases. If I have to buy her I will, but I'd rather not :(
