evileI admit, I've got a bit of a fascination with Barbie. I'm a late bloomer. Blame it on my tomboy ways when I was a child--I didn't get a Barbie of my own until I was 10 or 11.
Since then, I've become rather fascinated with the designer gown barbies, the annual Christmas barbie (My aunt gave my sister one every year for most of her childhood), the Barbie Princesses of the World, the Sun & Moon Barbies,the Halle Berry Catgirl Barbie, the multicolored fairy barbies...I am just enthralled. I try to keep a handle on it. I don't buy them all that often, even though I want them. I think as of now, I have my original Malibu Barbie, a Halloween witch Barbie (complete with tiny Barbie Tarot cards!), and a Portugese Princess Barbie. And assorted Halloween Kelly & friends in their cutie little halloween costumes.
OK, I'm an addict. I didn't buy any this year at Target. I feel sort of pure about it. (even though I actually didn't buy any because none of them were that that cute this year, not because of any virtuous anti-clutter sentiments.)
Anyway...I was on Fark.com yesterday and they featured Palm Beach Sugar Daddy Ken
I think he tops Earring Magic Ken (in more ways than one!)
I sent this article out to some friends who would appreciate it, and got back, among other coments: "Speechless. This is even beyond the 'Oreo Barbie.'"
Oreo Barbie?!? good lord...what do the people at Mattel smoke and where can I get some?
dayum.
