Busy

I've been very busy. I've even been too busy to figure out who wrote me the strange letter about Alicia. Too busy to really truly figure out once and for all who Alicia is. Where did I meet her? How did she get so involved with my friends and customers? I fear I've scared her to the point where she won't ever answer.

Mostly I've been busy making a wide variety of dolls - classic dolls, deformed dolls, religious dolls, molly dolls, animals dolls, shrapnel dolls, music dolls. What has made me even busier is that in each one of them I include a clue, a deformity, a hidden object which will solve the mystery of why these dolls were made.

I have often felt that the problem with consumerism is that all meaning is obliterated. I am a firm believer in craft and meaning. All else is perversion. And my dolls without the proper understanding is nothing short of perversion. So to save my customers from utter perversion and depravity, I have begun to include clues - either in the doll or on the packaging. Alicia understands the clues and that's what gives her such power.
