IN SEARCH OF THE SENSITIVE TYPE

When I was in Los Angeles a while ago I ran into a shop that sold mainly Blythe dolls. The store was called Valley of the Dolls and sadly they just closed their doors on August 10th. The recession is such a pleasure crusher! Anyway...Blythe.... I have a guilty pleasure thing about them. They have such strangely beautiful hair, sulky eyes and succinct fashion sense. If we hire/beckon an assistant to stuff envelopes in our garage we want her to look JUST like this and trill away in a half whisper like Joni Mitchell and arrive for work on the back of a motorcycle with a banjo strapped across her crochet clad shoulders. Later on we will seriously accept interns but we want them fairly emo and possibly disillusioned and still in high school. We will provide the chocolate and the vital river of hot black tea.
