We won the polling

[frualeydis]

So, we won the polling and are now waiting for the King and Queen to confirm or reject the will of the populace. We feel fairly confident. At least confident enough to make our new, nice clothes intended for the investiture. Mine is actually already made, btu it's not that I wouldn't have any use for it if we don't become baron and baroness. We shoudl probably avoid wearign our dresses together however.

In other news I am now on my second week with a cold that has given me temperature and dizziness as well as sinus problems and earache. I'm seeing a doctor today, because you need a paper from the doctor to show your employer if you have been ill more than a week. This is very badly timed, since I have an article that was due on the 1st. I wrote the editors of the volume a note and promised to finish it by Friday. I am extending that to Sunday, but then it really has to be finished.

So, I write when the paracetamol has forced the temperature down and rest when it comes back.

I hope - I am partly happy, partly terrifed. Probably for no good reason.

Thanks. I am working on it.

I am also getting very interested in buying a doll (just one, yeah, right), because Maja has taken an interest in 18" dolls recently.

Ooooh Are you looking at any type/make of doll in particular?

Maja wants an 18" doll for play. I am trying to talk Maja out of wanting an American Girl doll. It doesn't go to well.

I'm trying to get her to want the both prettier and cheaper Kidz'n'Cats dolls. I am very fond of this girl: http://mydollboutique.co.uk/kidz-n-cats/1193-kidz-n-cats-doll-lauren.html

I also like the Maru and friends dolls.

Kidz-n-Cats dolls are better articulated than AG dolls, nd their bodys are all vinyl. AG dolls have cloth bodies so you have to be careul bout dressing them in high-neckline styles to hide the transition from cloth to vinyl.

Kidz-n-cats wigs are abysmal, however (very coarse). But they can be removed and replaced with better quality ones. I'd recommend Monique Gold if you can get one, they're so soft and silky and gorgeous.
