AHHHHH! I'm a Barbie!
I just saw a commercial on TV for a movie about Mariposa Barbie. I about died. I'm ok with my trail name being the same as a pack, jewelry, a butterfly, and all the other things that have my name. BUT A BARBIE!

Of course I googled it to make sure I didn't misunderstand. Sure enough...check it out for yourself. http://barbie.everythinggirl.com/butterfly/

I would go on a trip soon but I'm getting my nails done, a facial peel, and a massage before I go to the mall with Ken. [Ugh] Besides, I don't have any strappy sandals that match my pack.

You'd better be careful Mariposa could put you in the grave if you mess with her. lol

Unfortunately due to lack of funds and the potential for my second job I can't commit to any trips very far in advance. I may be able to do something last minute...and don't get me wrong, I'm NOT complaining...I love my house but that's the reality for a while. I knew that going in to it...and it sure is nice to be warm and dry. :)

I'll certainly be hiking as soon as I can! Don't forget who I am!!!!!

Imagine a strawberry blond/redhead barbie meets TT. She can hike you into the ground and make you think it was your idea.

you're also a dance.

Mariposa, when I saw that I knew you'd get a kick out of it.

Last April, the day after tax season was over, I celebrate with a pedicure. The next day, I joined my fellow TTers at Mammoth Cave. I showed everyone my pedicure by camp fire.

A pedicure???? Stomper??!! I never would have guessed! :)

Tango, you're a great dance. And some pretty tasty gum too! And I also knew a German Shepherd named Tango. You're so lucky. I'm just a girly Barbie with wacko wings. LOL.

Well Mariposa, I bet you'd like to know my 5 year old daughter is already in love with you even though she's only seen you on the commercials. I hope your dvd due out this month is kid-friendly. ;)

It's great to know I have fans just from the commercials!

Wish I got some royalties off those DVDs. Sounds like you'll be buying one. :)

That's okay, you're redeeming quality is that you have a really good Mexican restaurant here in Longmont, CO. ;)

Whenever I see your name a vision of that wonderful flower pops into my head...even though we haven't met you will always be a beautiful flower to me.

Barbie's pretty cool how many women could keep Ken on hold for 40 years??

Glad you're a restaurant!

I posted something about this about 2 months ago when I bought one for my 6 y/o.
Our Mariposa is hotter than Barbie though. ;)
