Dollz4moi's Vinyl Musings

I decided to answer Ms. Leo interview questions from   I Luv Dolls . Give it a try I'm interested in your answers too When did you start collecting dolls? Oddly enough I didn't start collecting dolls until my late 20's. My brothers had action figures (Star Wars, GI Joe). What was your first purchase as a collector ? My 1st purchase was Kelly Barbie's littlest sister in her crib. I guess we can say I loved the littlest one (at the time) first. How many dolls do you own? Really not sure at this point but figure I have over 300 Kelly & friends. My Fashion Royalty collection is about 130 - 150 at this point (I haven't inventoried lately). I'm pretty sure Barbie & friends is about 350 or more (remember haven't inventoried in a while). This is just a guesstimate so I will say about 800 including all lines but I may be exaggerating since I've also been selling stuff for a few years now..LOL What is your favorite doll and why? I'm not g...

For everyone who is a Mom or has the role of Mom this day is for you. I know there are some men out there that fill this role as well. May you all enjoy this day and every other to come.  

Last night I finally saw The Avengers. Loved it and I will see it again. I may even go in for the 3D version the 2nd time. I met up with my girlfriends Angie & Linda after work along with some other ladies Angie works with. We ate at BBQ's and did the 8:45 show. We all wore our favorite Avenger t-shirts. My favorite was The Hulk but alas his shirts were sold out. I got Iron Man instead. There is a group pic of us somewhere but here are a couple of not so great shots of me in the Dark Shadows display.  Here's a shot of my favorite guy. The giggle in the 2nd shot was because my Hulk topper kept falling..I think. Love Hulk..Hulk smash..LOL  

Sorry for the long delay in posting the rest of the story. Now where did I leave this ride..hmm. KellyKon was an intimate affair (27 people / 3 tables) Every morning I was up by 3:30 - 4:30 because I was still on Eastern Standard Time. We spent the previous nights setting up the room for the day's festivities :O) I have shots of the table setup in the pics. That is not everything we had.  I figure I will post a link to the pictures that encompass all that I did. We start with out tour of Los Angeles and ends with the final day. There are pics from auction items and raffle goodies. I know it's a let down but I will answer any questions you may have. Just post and I will reply..I promise KellyKon 2012 pics

Interesting title, no? I am back from KellyKon 2012 no worse for wear (or however the saying goes..LOL). This years convention Kellyfornia Dreaming was held in El Segundo, a Los Angeles suburb. This was my 1st visit to the West Coast. It was a fun but I'm so glad to be home :O)  All in all I give the trip an 8. Loved seeing my friends. Loved the shopping (and you know I shopped..LOL). The hotel is one I would not recommend. I won't even give their name here. The majority of the staff was very flip and not very helpful with anything. My roommate and I switched rooms by the 2nd day there. The 1st room was horrible and there was no air conditioning at all. The 2nd room was much better :O)   We took a sight seeing tour on Thursday. We went to Hollywood, Venice Beach, Santa Monica, & Beverly Hills. The tour was fun but our guide sounded like Arnold Schwarzenegger..LOL. I swear to you his accent was so thick I thought he mentioned a robot in the Ten Commandments (movie...
