so great strides have been made in the complete customization of Rosalie and redoing FaithAnn. all that's left at this point is gluing on piercings and finishing re-stringing. that won't take long at all, fortunately. (done! check it out!)
i injured myself mindlessly yesterday, and now my left middle finger is temporarily useless. i got a deep but not too painful cardboard-cut yesterday handling a box at work. middle finger, just a few millimeters from the fingernail on the pad, i forgot about it by the time i got home though. to strip FaithAnn's old blushing and faceup, i used my usual mixture: part of a Mr Clean Magic Eraser dipped in a solution of half water, half Winsor & Newton Brush Cleaner and Restorer. it works amazingly, it'll pull off a company faceup in two swipes or less without hurting the resin at all.. it's also apparently much more corrosive to human flesh. xD i've never had trouble with it before, but it dribbled into my cut when i wasn't paying attention and ripped it back open and dissolved the previously cut parts. O_o it was vigorously swished about in water and promptly covered with a band-aid, but it still hurts today. i'm doing left handed things without my middle finger, so i've had to go back and correct twice the typos i normally have in the course of drafting a post. xD it's a Disney Princess band-aid, so at least it's making me smile when i see it. the cut is under she shiny spot that's actually Cinderella's head.
i still worked on the faceups and new blushing and tattoos, i just did it with a band-aid and one less finger. xD i think they came out looking spectacular, and can't wait to share pictures with the JiD discussion thread.. especially of Rosalie's custom wig, i sewed purple hair wefts into it by hand to get the look i wanted for her, then styled it myself. she's still got her default eyes, but it's okay for a few weeks. FaithAnn is wearing Bea's old wavy brown wig, i need to get her new hair because after being exposed to high heat and extreme humidity at Scarbie, the other wig started bleeding colour everywhere and it just won't stop! that's why i had to re-do her in the first place, so i think i'm gonna get her a good black wig, then sew green streaks into it like i did Rosalie's purple minking. The black wig/brown eyes/ black glasses order will happen either when i get my fishy split refund, or after i buy my ticket to go see Roro- whichever comes sooner. for now though FaithAnn's a brunette with blunt bangs, and Rosalie's apparently rocking some blue contacts. xD
otherwise i'm great though! tomorrow's mommy-day, and though i have no clue what we'll be doing, i'm sure i'll have fun doing it. xD i also have no idea when we'll be getting together. i'm really altogether clueless, but that's fine. whatever happens, it's cool. okay, updated plans include doll photos at the Botanical Gardens and a cheap lunch.
this weekend i'll have plenty to keep me busy. in addition to mommy-time and two seasons of Avatar: the Last Airbender (on loan from Tiff) to watch, Steve gave me an anime called Kobato, and Jacinda loaned me the third volume in a quartet of books we've been following, so i shouldn't get bored at any point in time. xD plus i have a second Wiimote for the first time, so i've been enjoying actual head-to-head competition in Wii Sports. turns out i'm worse at tennis and baseball than i thought, especially compared to someone decent playing at the same time. still a pretty decent Wii bowler though. at least there's that. since i bought Wii Play (for the second controller) i've learned i'm still awful at Duck Hunt, Wii Billiards is harder than Monkey Billiards on the GameCube (go figure- Monkey bowling was much harder then Wii bowling is), and cow racing is kinda addictive even though the people i've played with are kinda jerks who totally never even hesitated to shove my cow off the track at all. xD i still wanna get Wii Sports Resort, because i'm still playing Wii Sports more than any other game.. though Mario Galaxy 2 and Super Mario Wii both look promising, new games are low priority with the Roro trip quickly approaching. maybe when i get home i can go crazy and buy all the games people have been talking about lately.
i must say though, i am SO super proud of the work i did tattooing them. they look awesome head to toe and i'm in love with myself and my little sissy. xD

Oh cr@p, her navel, too? Nice job on the 1950's-pillowcase-style birds. At least I knew about them...
Don't you have to add like 40 more tattoos to get her up to date? Ok, maybe like 5. Or are those in places that are to obscene to show here? Lol. I'm amazed at the detail you were able to get painting those tattoos, you did an incredible job.
