So...remember how in my last post I said I'd hold back from spending because summer was over...yeah...well...I double checked the calendar, summer is not officially over yet...

See, I got my hair cut today (FINALLY!). I am really REALLY happy with it. I went for Kristen Bell's haircut from Teen People (oct 2004) only shorter, because I wanted a cut. It turned out really well, it was very slow at the Hair Cuttery so the the stylist took her time showing me how to style it. Then, as I was getting ready to leave, I realized I owned absolutely know hair-doing supplies, so I asked her what she used to make my hair look as cute as it did at that moment. So she gave me the two items (a gel and a spray) and then I sheepishly admitted I probably needed to buy a hairdryer. (the hairdryer I have I stole from my mom, and I'm pretty sure it's from the 1970s, the thing is LOUD and HOT and HUGE). So that knocked my simple haircut pricetag up to $76. Plus tip. So much for cutting back.

But, does this make me think I should behave myself the rest of the month? Not really. One of my DCSWCC friends alerted me to a sale at AFK on Buffy figures. Check it out - I get the Buffy and Dawn figures PLUS Cheerleader buffy for $30 PLUS for $15 more I can get You're Welcome Cordelia and School Hard Spike. Now, I really don't need a Dawn figure, but of all the dawn figures, this one looked the best to me. Chosen Buffy I need because she has the Slayer Sythe! I need that. Cheerleader Buffy? She might not be the best mold ever but she's cheerleader buffy!!! The "You're Welcome" Cordelia is probably the best Cordy mold out there (the other one I want is "The Wish", but that's Buffy Cordy, and this will be Angel Cordy...) and School Hard Spike looks fantastic! And I do not have a Spike (apart from Chosen "freebie yellow" Spike) or a Cordelia! How could I let this fantastic offer pass me by!!??

To just add to that, the same DCSWCC member who showed me the sale has offered to sell me some of his old Buffy figures that he's trying to clear out (they're expecting their first child so he's trying to clear at a room). So, hopefully, I'll be getting two Oz figures (normal Oz and Werewolf Oz) along with Dopplegangland Willow, Anyanka and Vamp Dru at the October meeting (can't make the september meeting due to a play).

I still need to get the Sunnydale library playset...that's totally going on my christmas list.

don't give up hope, Oz is next up in the new line of figures for 2006! Just announced so you still have time to submit your ideas to Diamond Toys ;)
