Bits and pieces

Ok, so I was just surfing the net today and I read this... http://blogs.static.mentalfloss.com/blogs/archives/24089.html

Reading the part about Raggedy Ann and Andy, I remembered a very similar reoccurring nightmare I used to have. I'm mostly directing this at Keryn, because if I remember right, the root cause of this was our lovely cousin Erin and a bedtime story she told us once when she was babysitting us. It was at a family reunion held in some hotel somewhere. I have a memory of Uncle Frank standing on a staircase with a very large amount of greenery behind him that I think is from the same place. This was before Telima and Lisa were born, I know that because Aunt Kaylene invited Teresa and LaDale to stay with her that night so I figure there were no babies to worry about.

Anyway, Erin told us a truly hideous story about a china doll that had long fingernails and lived in a cage that ultimately killed the girl who bought her because she didn't take care of her properly. I had a particularly hard time spending the night at Grandma Pace's after that because she always had those porcelain masks on the wall.

End of reminisce. Thank you for reading.

PS. Spell check doesn't like any of our names!
