I : find things like this kind of quirky, : especially since the focus was clearly : vintage Barbie. : : : : : : As a side note, Ed had to have emergency : nose surgery yesterday. He's home and : resting but he needs a lot of care right now : so while I'm here and changing the photos, I : might not be commenting as frequently for a : few days. :
