There is very cute Watari plushie up for sale on Ebay. And so far, there's only one bid on it. C'mon people. I know some of you would want this.

This article is about how a woman was fired for having a Kerry/Edwards bumper sticker on her car. And this article, from today, is about how John Kerry gave her a job in his campaign.

Also, happy belated birthdays to windschaser and clari_clyde. *glomps*

HEEEEEEEEE!! It's so cute!

... aw dammit, now I want to make plushies again. It seems like every year in autumn I want to make plushies of SOMETHING...

[wordsofastory.livejournal.com]

You can make plushies? *so jealous* My sewing skills are so non-existent that it's actually kind of funny.

I keep waiting for a Hisoka one to show up on ebay, but no luck so far.

[childofatlantis.livejournal.com]

No, I can't make plushies. But every year I start looking for patterns and digging out material and making grand PLANS for making plushies.

If I ever get an actual plushie out of it, I'll let you know. ;)

[wordsofastory.livejournal.com]

*laughs* Now that I can understand. It's like the time I had the grand idea that I was going to make a quilt entirely from scratch, even though I'd never so much as sewed a hem.

Yeah. That went well.

I love crafts and things that involve _making_ stuff, but I don't have the patience to master any of them, so I cycle through various things. Winter seems to bring out the urge to do cross-stitch and sewing and knitting, whereas summer is more drawing and art. And for all other times, there's obsessive image editing, icon making and web page design. ^_~

[wordsofastory.livejournal.com]

Oh, that's so neat. I don't really do any craft or art type things, other than writing and drawing. And drawing I'm not even good at, but I seem to have a need to do it. I have books full of sketches that I do to keep my hands busy when I watch TV, and the margins of my class notes are always overflowing.

Hey, that's ME bidding on it, don't give me no competition! *shakes you by collar*

:)

[kohakutenshi.livejournal.com]

Er...Don't give me ANY competition, I mean. Yes. *ahem*

And they had a 003 and a Tsuzuki/Hisoka, but that one went above $130, so yeah, I let em have it if they wanted it THAT badly. I hope this person makes a Tatsumi or Muraki! :)

[wordsofastory.livejournal.com]

Oh, whoops! I didn't realize it was you! #^^# And to think that I even checked out the user name to see if it sounded familiar.

And is this the same girl that did the puppy-Tsuzuki/Hisoka one that was up a few weeks ago? Because wow, I didn't realize that one had gone so high. Just as well I didn't bid on it, I guess. ^^;

[kohakutenshi.livejournal.com]

Yep, the very same. And I had that one at $100 for a while, but then like the day before or so, it went past that so I figured they could have it cause apparently they wanted it THAT bad. :) So when I saw Watari, I thought, "Ooh. I want. He's cuter, too... and no one will know, mwahahaha!"

Well, *pokes* they DIDN'T know. ;)

[wordsofastory.livejournal.com]

Um, well, um... ^^;;

At least I doubt anyone on my friendslist has a hundred dollars to be bidding on a plushie. So you're probably safe!

::reads both articles:: See, now that kinda thing gives ya hope for humanity.

[wordsofastory.livejournal.com]

Yeah, it does, doesn't it? ^_^

[clari-clyde.livejournal.com]

I saw a Muraki plushie (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=5921542844) and died. Hee. What if someone got them both?

And thanks for the b-day. It’s been a fantastic week.

[wordsofastory.livejournal.com]

But dude! It's a *kitten* Muraki. That is surely, like, a sign of the Apocolypse.

And no worries! Glad you're having a good time. ^^
