The Haunted Dollhouse

This post isn’t funny, and I apologize for that, but it’s not sad either, so I think we’re even. If you don’t like Halloween, miniatures, or horror books you should just skip this post. Seriously. If you’re a long-term reader you already know that I’ve been slowly building a haunted dollhouse for the last elevenContinue reading “The Haunted Dollhouse”

That’s why I’m not allowed to be here unsupervised.

This is the longest and most confusing post ever. I started writing it months ago and then got distracted. If I were you I probably wouldn’t read it. You’ve been warned. ********** It all started with a tweet I sent out a few months ago, linking to the blog of an antique store that wasContinue reading “That’s why I’m not allowed to be here unsupervised.”

Judging from the disturbingContinue reading “Huh. Well, that was…unexpected.”

Also, I am severely jet-lagged so I have nothing funny to say.Continue reading “How did the hamsters even *get* jet lag?”
