My dolly from the Zombie Farm was finally rescued from the post office! She is adorable!

I had my very first legal drink ever here in April of 1982. I am pretty sure it was a Pina Colada.  That was before 'West' Hollywood was a city. The Rainbow Bar and Grill is a bar and restaurant on the Sunset Strip in West Hollywood, California, United States adjacent to the border of Beverly Hills, California. Its address is 9015 Sunset Boulevard. The bottom level of the Rainbow is the restaurant, The Rainbow Bar and Grill. Upstairs is an exclusive club called "Over the Rainbow". The Over the Rainbow consists of a full bar, dance floor, and a DJ booth. The restaurant is next to The Roxy Theatre and The Key Club. The restaurant was founded in early 1972 by Elmer Valentine, Lou Adler, Mario Maglieri and others, opening on April 16, 1972 with a party for Elton John. At the time, the word "rainbow" signified peace and freedom. It quickly became known as a hangout for celebrities of all types. John Belushi ate his last meal(lentil soup) at table #16. Fo...

Every year at this time, you are sure to hear someone ask- What does 'Daylight Savings time' save? It is a good question. It loses you an hour at least it feels that way the first day or so.  As someone who leaves for work very early, it means that I may have to start my drive in the dark again like I do in December.  WIKI Says: Although not punctual in the modern sense, ancient civilizations adjusted daily schedules to the sun more flexibly than modern DST does, often dividing daylight into twelve hours regardless of day length, so that each daylight hour was longer during summer. For example, Roman water clocks had different scales for different months of the year: at Rome's latitude the third hour from sunrise, hora tertia, started by modern standards at 09:02 solar time and lasted 44 minutes at the winter solstice, but at the summer solstice it started at 06:58 and lasted 75 minutes. After ancient times, equal-length civil hours eventually supplanted unequal, sociv...

This is my latest Doll.  And 2 of my dolls went to the doll hospital, so Dr. Christy Creepy- Dolls could work on them. One has lost an eye into her head, and one is getting a dress refresh.

I found a cute little metal rack to put dolls on, which means I have room for a few more dolls! YAY!  I placed Sedona at the top. She is the Queen of all my dolls and this way she can survey her kingdom and greet any visitors since she is looking right at the front door. I could not resist these huge happy daisies.  Here are some of the dolls getting ready for Spring!

This is my bathroom skeleton Fred. He has been hanging on the inside of our downstairs bathroom for about 3 years now. This is Theodore, he moved in October of 2010. He is on the garage door. This Blackbird tree is on the outside of Fred's door.

I finally completed framing and hanging my latest Madame Talbot art. My stairwell is basically a gallery of her posters. I was especially excited about these new posters, because 3 of them were inspired by photographs from my November Obscura Blog. To think that we helped inspire this beautiful artwork is very flattering. Those 3 are the Corpse Flower, The Black Moriah and Boothill Graveyard. You can see ( and buy) these posters and many more at www.madametalbot.com  and you can see my photos of these things on my other blog at http://novemberobscura.blogspot.com/

These are the first two hearts in a series I have started. I call them Forlorn hearts because they look a little sad and worried.
