Scarydollmandias by Percy Bysshe Shelley

I met a traveler from an antique land...


Who (after being thrown into detox and completing his 12 steps) said: 
`Two vast and trunkless legs of wire
Lay amongst the whimsy. Near them, on the carpet,
Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose astonished expression,
And lipless palate, and sneer of open mouthed command,
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them and the heart that fed.
And on the pedestal these words appear --
"My name is Scarydollmandias, scary doll of scary dolls:
Stumble upon me, ye Mighty, and despair!"
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level whimsy and missile toe stretch far away.' 


Scary Doll wishes you a Happy New Year and promises to frighten and startle you in Christmas of 2014!

She's boosting her blood sugar!!!!


I knew it!!!

As soon as Jamie told me that Scary Doll was having blood sugar issues, I suspected she was in our candy stash somewhere.  Sure enough, a quick peek into the Ghirardelli bag revealed that she was playing in a ball-pit of creamy delights.  Naughty dolly!!! Now I have to detoxify all these squares before I eat any of them.  
I think SD has had the run of the house long enough.  It's time to pack her away again.  Don't tell her I said that -- she will bite my ankles.
