Words and Pictures - Collecting


I collect ugly dolls.  You know, the kind of dolls that no-one wants because they're a bit disheveled, unattractive or a bit on the tacky side.  I can't seem to pass by a dirty faced gaze from the bottom of an op-shop bargain bin.  They cry out to me, "I want to be loved" and I reply "Don't worry, I will love you".  Then the old lady behind the counter looks at me funny, hurriedly collects my money hoping I will leave her shop as soon as possible.  =D

Ooh love your dolls. Talk about a blast from the past I had one of those Native American dolls (front centre) when I was a kid that my parents had brought back from the states for me. It had a baby strapped to its back, does yours?

No she doesn't. It's a shame, it would have been a bonus
