I know.....WHERE DID I GO???

I know, I know, I haven't posted in a month.  I don't really have an excuse, except its been pretty hectic around here, and I haven't gotten a chance to use Jan's IPad to post without the other humans noticing.  And then when I did have a chance, I found out only later....and I kind of was taking a nap at the time?  Oops!!  :/. 

In any event, I do want to thank whatever readers I have left after that long posting break for not giving up on me!!  :-). I will try to get a post up over the next week.  A few new dolls have been around here, and I'm not quite sure what to make of them.  The good news (I think)  is that Pocahontas and I are definitely spending more time together, and I suppose you could call us friends.  It still irks be every time Jan comes around when Poca and I are chatting, and she grins like a Cheshire Cat.  Ooohhh, those humans are annoying at times!!  Anyway, to make my main point: no, I didn't abandon my blog.  And look forward to a post sometime this week (a good one, I promise!!). And thank you for still reading my blog!!

No, I didn't forget about my blog already. ;-)

Hello, everyone!! :-).  First, I'm thrilled that I already have three followers.  Three!!!!  :O. Thank you so much, everyone!! :-). I never thought I'd get that many, especially not this soon.  So thank to each of my three followers from the very bottom of my (plastic) heart!! ;-)

Second of all, no I didn't forget about my blog already. ;-). I'm getting a new post together, and I'll have it up hopefully by the end of the week.  I'm still figuring out how to use these computer gadgets! ;-). 

And third, just thank you so very much everyone, for reading my blog!! :-). I really appreciate it so much. 

Ok, I think that's about it. :-). Stay tuned for my new post!!!

A Day Outside...aka Jan being silly...again.

The other day Jan sent me and Pocahontas outside to 'get acquainted' again.  Seriously, I don't know if she is aware of it, but that excuse gets old very fast.  We aren't going to become best buds overnight, okay Jan?  How long does it take to get that drilled into your head?!  Really.  Anyways....  

I don't really know how she expected us to talk at all, because she went on a photoshoot rampage and took fifty million pictures of each of us.  They do look rather nice, though. :)

And that's just a few of them!! :). Anyways, after that I went off to look at some pretty flowers that were nearby, but sheesh, it was both windy and chilly, so I had to hold on to my hair to make sure it didn't get messed up.

By this point, Jan left us alone, so we kind of just went exploring.  Finally, I said something, because the silence was getting pretty thick.

"So, um, this is kind of awkward, isn't it?"

"You too?  Glad I'm not the only one!"  Pocahontas giggled.  "Does she expect us to be best friends overnight?  I mean, I have nothing against you, but uh, you know what I mean." 

"Trust me, I do.  Jan gets a little annoying, doesn't she?"

"Um, yes.  Couldn't she have realized my box was upside down in the Disney store bag on the way here??"  Pocahontas dramatically pretended to faint.

I had to stifle a giggle there.  I thought I was the only one whose box was upside down.  Anyways, Pocahontas was apparently quite the dramatic!

"Yes, my box was upside down too.  Oh, look at that pinecone!!"  I had spotted a cool looking pinecone on a nearby tree.  "I'm going to try and get it down."  I reached up, but couldn't quite reach it.

Pocahontas meanwhile climbed up a tree, nimble as a....um, I don't know, but she was really fast!!! ;)

"Want to join me up here?" she called.  It looked kind of fun, but the thought of climbing uo that high kind of made me queasy.  What if I fell?

"Er, no thanks!" I called up to her.  "I think I'll stay down here."  Pocahontas looked a little disappointed, and I felt really bad.  I mean, it wasn't a personal thing!!  I just don't enjoy climbing up like 5 times my height, ok?  

Pocahontas climbed down and we continued walking along.  Suddenly she bolted ahead and started jumping around excitedly.  Now what?

"Look!" she said.  "It's a real mushroom!!"  

"Um, so?"  I replied.  Frankly I thought the mushroom was a bit ugly.  It had these wierd-looking things stuck all over it.  Pocahontas, though, apparently thought it was really cool.

And I stood off to the side while she exclaimed over every last minuscule detail of this...uh, what did she call it?  Oh yeah, mushroom.  

When she was finally done, we continued on until we came to this bench.

"Hey, let's climb up!!"  Pocahontas exclaimed.  "We could have a much better view from up there!"  

I peered up at it.  It was a little shorter of a climb than the tree, but I still wasn't sure.  But Pocahontas had already started to climb up.

And then promptly jumped back down.

"Argh, this hair!!"  she cried dramatically.  "It always gets in my way!"  Apparently she is quite dramatic or something.

"Well, why don't you ask Jan to put it up in a braid for you?"  I put forth timidly.  "Maybe then it wouldn't get in your way."  Personally, I thought she was out of her mind.  I would love to have hair like hers.  Mine is short, and you also can't do anything with it.  Not even put it in a ponytail.  

Just then Jan walked up.

"How are you two getting along?" she asked.  I rolled my eyes.

"All I know is that I'm just going to die if this hair isn't out of my way soon!"  Pocahontas exclaimed.  Jan stifled a smile.

"I said that maybe you could put it up in a braid for her." I added.  Jan nodded.

"I think that could be arranged." she said.  "Want me to do it now?"

"Yes!" Pocahontas added.

After Jan had finished, Pocahontas twirled around and showed her new hairstyle to me.  

"How does it look?" she asked.

"It looks great." I assured her.

"Thanks, Snow." she replied.

"Well, I guess that's taken care of." Jan said.  "I have to go do my schoolwork right now, so come back in when you're done exploring."

"Ok!" we said at the exact same time.  Jan left

"Well, want to try getting up on that bench again?"  Pocahontas said excitedly.  She climbed up in about five seconds.  How does she do that??  It'd probably take me like half an hour.

She leaned over the edge of the bench.

"It's really nice up here." she said.  "I can help you up if you want."  I looked up at the bench again.  It still seemed very high...and a very long way to fall!  

"Er, that's ok." I said, hoping I didn't hurt her feelings.

"Oh, well ok." she replied, her face falling.  I think I did hurt her feelings.  I needed to say something, and fast.

"I'll come up next time we're outside!" I blurted.  Oohh, I'm going to regret that.

"Really?  Promise?" she asked, her face lighting up.

"Yes, of course.  I promise."  I said.  

"Great!!"  Pocahontas had a grin a mile wide.  "Do you want to go back inside now?"

"Sure."

As soon as we got back inside, we climbed up the leg of the display table.

"Ugh." I said, as soon as we made it to the top.  "Couldn't the table be a little shorter so we could climb up easier?"

"I know, right?" Pocahontas replied.  "But anyways, we made it."  At that moment, Jan and hr sister started singing Let it Go in the next room.

"Oh, brother." Pocahontas groaned.  "Do those girls have any idea whatsoever how horrible they sound singing?"

"Um, probably not." I said.  "And I personally am not going to be the one to tell them."

"Why not?" Pocahontas asked.  "It's offending my ears!"

"Yes, but I have no idea if they'd get mad or not, and I don't want to find out!"  

Pocahontas laughed at that one.  We actually were starting to chat like friends.  Maybe Jan was right.  No, no, no.  No way am I going to prove her right.  That isn't fair.  Pocahontas was nice, sure, but I don't want Jan getting a swelled head or something and thinking she's right on everything.  Besides, then she'd probably think I should always listen to her.  Um, no thank you.

Just then Jan came up.  Pocahontas clapped her hand over her mouth.

"Hope she didn't hear us complaining about her singing." she whispered to me out of the corner of her mouth.

"Me too."

"Would you like some chocolate?" Jan asked.  "It's Hershey's."

"Chocolate???  Really!!!" Pocahontas exclaimed.  "Oh my goodness, I LOVE chocolate.  I adore it.  It's like the best thing ever....."  Pocahontas glanced around and noticed both me and Jan looking at her funny for being so overly dramatic about how she loves chocolate.

"Oh, um, sorry." she said, blushing.

"No, it's fine." Jan said.  "Glad you like it."  

So Jan broke off a little bar from the chocolate, and handed us each a piece.  I must admit, it was delicious!!!  

And then Jan just had to take a picture of us with the chocolate bar.  I hope this doesn't go on all the time....with fifty million pictures.  Yeesh.

Maybe living here won't be so bad after all.  Pocahontas is nice....if a little dramatic, but still nice.  But I still don't want to prove Jan right.  Sigh. :/

Yucky day out....

Um, yeah, it is kind of gross out today. Rain pouring down.....yeah.  So of course I had to go out and look.

And of course Jan found me out there looking about like ten minutes later, and had a fit.  Apparently, she doesn't like me outside in the rain.  Um, hello, when else am I going to sing "Singin' in the Rain"?  ;-). Not that I'm the best singer ever, but still.  So she took me back inside, and insisted that I wrap myself up in an 18-incher's sweater.  Thing is, it was so big on me, it was almost like a blanket.  Pocahontas turned to me.

"I'm getting the idea that Jan wasn't very happy that you went outside?" she asked.

"Um, yeah, she wasn't."  I said, hiding a smile.  "She sure is a bit over-protective, isn't she?"  

Pocahontas agreed.

"By the way," she added, "how exactly did you get the front door open anyhows?"

"Well, you know I fell smack on my rear end when I got down from the table.  I really need to figure out how to get down off of here better!"  I said, giggling.  "Anyways, I kind of leaped for the doorknob, used all my weight to turn it, and then let go.  I fell down pretty hard from there too. But it was cool looking around outside."

"I'll bet it was." Pocahontas agreed.  "So, think you could show me how to turn that doorknob?"  She asked with a grin.

"Definitely!" I replied.  Hmm...maybe this won't be too bad after all.

Hello everyone!!

Hi, everyone! My name is Snow, and I am a Disney classic Snow White doll.  A human named Jan got me at the Disney store a few days ago.  Have you guys got any idea how horrible that box is???  You can't move at all!  I wanted a blog so I can write about what I do everyday, since, well let's face it, sometimes being a doll gets a little boring.  The humans are all busy, and you just have to sit on a shelf not moving.  Jan knows I'm alive, but I don't know if anyone else here does.  Anyways, i had to ride in the car all the way upside down in the bag.  There was another doll box next to me, but I couldn't see who was in it.  I felt a little light headed when Jan took me out of the bag.  I mean, I'd been upside down for quite a little while.  I don't think Jan realized, because she apologized when she took me out.  So far Jan seems ok, but she apparently also got a Pocahontas doll at the Disney store too.  I know that because as soon as she'd gotten me out of that gross box (seriously, its horrible), she plopped me on her 'Disney display table' as she calls it, right next to the Pocahontas doll.  Hello???  Awkward alert!!  

I mean, I don't even know her.  I suppose Jan thought we were supposed to all of a sudden become best buds.  -_-   Really!  I mean, we may be dolls, but we have feelings too!  I think Pocahontas was feeling a little awkward too.  Then, as soon as she made sure we weren't going to fall off or something, Jan left us to 'get acquainted'.  Well, don't count on you coming back and we're best friends.  Actually, we didn't say much at all.  

Anyways, we'll see how it goes.  If you're interested in how my little plastic life goes, go ahead and read my blog.  I'm a little nervous how living here is going to turn out.....
