Dead in Plaid

Monday, May 26th, 2008

In doing some updating to my Skelanimals shop, I ran across the new line of the plush toys - Dead in Plaid. The “plaid” in this case is a mix of skulls and cross-hatching. Too cute!!
Each available for $16.99 at EntertainmentEarth.com

Oh, and my haircut is done. Not sure what I think, but I’ll be posting pictures soon on the hair donation lens and my blog.

I’ve taken over a group - Lone Star State. There were several groups already on Texas, but not a single one of them was being managed in any way. I didn’t see any reason to start yet another one, so contacted all the groupmasters to see if anyone wanted to give theirs up and ended [...]
