Build-A-Bear x Hot Topic Furry N' Fierce Collection

Thanks to Ladan S. for sending me this photo of her bears, Bianca and Burton:

Since they're bare, except for their bows, I found them these clothes:

You can get them and the bear below at Build-A-Bear here.

You can get matching human clothes at Hot Topic here.

Have bears or other plush pals to share?

Send a photo of them to blacklacewings85@aol.com.

Lucy Hates To Leave

That's the title of this episode of I Love Lucy:

My apartment looks like Fred and Ethel's now.

The living and dining room is filled with boxes.

I'm packing my room next. So not looking forward to it.

My dolls aren't either. My Lucy hates to leave her home.

My Monster High dolls don't want to leave their runway.

The dolls in the curio cabinet and closet are saying "Nooooo!"

But on Monday we must go.

My brother and I are moving into the house we inherited from our grandpa.

It's only an hour away, thankfully.

Sadly the house is small, but it's bigger than our apartment, so it's a step up!

Email photos of your dolls to me and I'll post them for all to see!

Blue Velvet (1986) Play Set

Get it here. Then you can pretend you're Frank (Dennis Hopper).

While you watch Ben (Dean Stockwell) lip sync to In Dreams by Roy Orbison:

Warning: Frank drops F bombs in that video, and through the whole movie.

He also calls Jeffrey (Kyle MacLachlan) neighbor, so I thought of this video:

No disrespect to Mister Rogers. I love him.

Speaking of which, tomorrow is Loving Day and Red Rose Day.

Living Dolls (2013)

Watch this doc here and meet the stars of it here.

My favorite is Michael Sullivan AKA RoboMike.

Watch the porno he made with his robo dolls here.

It reminds me of Bjork's All Is Full Of Love video:



The Doll Days Of Summer start today, World Doll Day.
And will end on August 5th, National Doll Day.

Email me photos of your dolls to be featured.

Invitation to A Nightmare On Friday The 13th Of July

Robert Englund AKA Freddy Krueger's birthday was today.

Celebrate him at A Nightmare On Friday The 13th Of July.

This blog bash is also to celebrate my birthday, which is July 12th.

A Nightmare On Elm Street 2: Freddy's Revenge and I are turning 33.

Freddy will get revenge by taking Friday the 13th from Jason Voorhees.

Add your blog's name to the guest list at the bottom of this post to join.

Then post anything A Nightmare On Elm Street/Freddy related that day.

When Boney Met Sally

Boney was in pursuit of a skin suit

Sally the rag doll cushioned his fall

"I'll free you, then I'll be you" he said

As he broke a wine bottle on her head

When he wore her skin and angel face

No one knew he had fallen from grace

Till he sang "I enjoy being a girl"

Then they saw his sanity unfurl.

This poem was inspired by the photo and song below.

Death and the Lady. See more photos from the series here.

Gender by Jonathan Davis. Get it on his new album here.

Marilyn's Monster Mate

Happy Bubbly Day!
Celebrate by dipping potato chips in champagne like Marilyn Monroe,
whose birthday was yesterday.

That scene is from The Seven Year Itch (1955). So is this iconic one:



I love what she says about The Creature From The Black Lagoon (1954).

The Creature is creeping up on Jami Deadly as Marilyn.

Don't they make the cutest couple?

I have this wee version of that plush Creature:

Listen to The Creature's song for Marilyn here!
