Tara, who is my good and loving and tolerant friend, and who does all the graphics for my website, is also a Barbie customizer. She takes normal, every day dolls and turns them into geek icons, like <i>NCIS</i>'s Abby Sciuto, or damn near EVERY CHARACTER EVER to appear in an episode of <i>Star Trek</i>. I? Think this is <i>awesome</i>. And that, friends and neighbors, is why I asked Tara to make me a Barbie.<br /><br />An Alice Price-Healy Barbie.

She has the head of an Aquamarine Birthstone Beauty, the right arm of a Hard Rock Barbie, and the body of a Harley-Davidson Barbie. Her shirt is an old, old piece of Ken's wardrobe; her tank top is Barbie Basics; and her hot camouflage pants are proof that she's more awesome than your Barbie. Oh, and did we mention the weapons? She has a shotgun, pistols, grenades, knives, smoke bombs, and a 1:6 scale machete. Yes. BARBIE WITH A MACHETE.<br /><br /><center><a href="http://pics.livejournal.com/seanan_mcguire/pic/0005try9"><img src="http://pics.livejournal.com/seanan_mcguire/pic/0005try9" height="600"></a></center><br /><br />Alice knows what you're thinking. Alice doesn't approve.<br /><br />My dolls rule!
