Frank's Bride
I never watched "The Bride of Frankenstein." But I totally got into her hair. In retrospect, her hair was super duper way ahead of its time.
I think a lot of rappers in the 90's adopted it and called it a 'roof top.'
Giggle.

Happy Halloween!!!
I think it goes without saying, Doodle Divas favorite horror movie is "The Stepford Wives". Any horror movie that manages to showcase popular fashions of the day is tops in Doodle Divas world.
As for the artist . . . So far I've watched about three horror movies since this afternoon. Funny. I don't remember the acting being so abysmal when I first watched "Friday the 13th" years ago.
Here's what I've watched over the past few weeks so far:
1) "Friday the 13th": Seriously. The acting is horrid. I don't know which is scarier - the random murders or the horrid acting. Yipes!
2) "Last House on the Left": More brutal than scary. I don't much care for women getting knocked around. But the revenge is oh so sweet.
3) "Friday the 13th Part II": Seriously. The acting is still horrid. But I give it props for taking a risk. It was the first movie I've seen that 'went there.' Jason offs a disabled guy in a wheelchair!
4) "Paranormal Activity": Scary. Things that go bump in the night are always scarier than the in-your-face stuff.
5) "Quarantine": Very scary. Very creepy. By the end, I wasn't sure if I could sleep with the lights out.
6) "Quarantine II (Spanish)": The American version sucked. But the Spanish version was completely different. Super creepy. Worth the subtitles.
7) "Paranormal Activity II": No gold star. But adequate.
8) "Paranormal Activity III": Better than II actually. Better creep factor. And the lead guy is super duper cute.
9) "Halloween Resurrection": Awful. Dumb. Predictable. Lame. Silly.
10) "Case 39": Painfully dumb. Rene Zellweger owes me money for this stinker
11) "Don't Be Afraid of the Dark": Katie Holmes is lucky Tom Cruise didn't dump HER after this dorky waste of film. I should sue her for a refund of the time I spent waiting for it to get good. . . . Still waiting.
13) "Nightmare On Elm Street": More brutal and silly than scary. But it does manage the creep factor. And Johnny Depp is nice eye candy.
14) "Amityville Horror": Silly and predictable.
My all time favorite horror movie is a Spanish horror film called "The Orphanage." It's worth the subtitles for those of us that can't understand the language.
Otherwise, anything where the whole world has gone nuts and turned zombie or has a horrible virus, ("Living Dead", "28 Days Later"). Or where everyone is in on it and no one believes the main character, ("Rosemary's Baby"). Or where everyone is in on it . . . period. ("Invasion of the Body Snatchers").
Few horror movies actually do it for me. They're either too predictable, gross, illogical or go for the cheap scare - the inevitable tap on the shoulder that turns out to be Mom with milk and cookies instead of the boogeyman with a knife.
Enough about me and Doodle Divas. What are your favorite horror movies?

Which Diva Are You?
B.F.F. Diva
Tennis Diva
Rock-n-Roll Diva
Halloween Diva
Casual Friday Diva
Birthday Diva
Mom Diva
Eventually, it would be nice to have a diva for every diva out there. Well . . . almost every diva. I suspect Felony Diva won't be happening.
Then again, a diva in Martha Stewart's likeness may not be a bad idea.

Shut the Front Door!!!
August 6th? Are you kidding me? My last blog was almost two months ago?!
Golly geez!
So my dealings, doings, what's-going-onings, seem to be like some Doodle Diva Diary. Between 'Bottle Blonde" diva this past Summer and the top secret diva a boutique just got approved for later this month, (it's FALL now!), a whole hell of a lot has happened.
A lot has been personal. I personally am working a 40-hour work week at a new job I started in August. And no. That's not code for 'I-am-a-full-time-Doodle-Diva-artist/designer.'
That seriously cut into my all-doodle-divas-all-the-time zone - at least parts of it. Of note - BLOGGING!
And I am ever so grateful. Not only is it a great career move, it has forced me to be more balanced. Let's just say there was a point when I wanted to hurl Doodle Divas out a very high window.
Doodle Divas was stressing me out.
Or so I fooled myself into thinking that.
Actually, I, as usual, was putting myself in my own way and getting stressed in the process.
What was causing this stress? Two words: time management.
To that end, I've incorporated a few changes:
1) I actually use the alarm clock.
I didn't for years because I hated having some random lovely dream abruptly interrupted. Yeah. Whatever. It's set with a battery back up now.
2) Set the delay brew on my coffee maker the night before.
Yeah. I whined about wanting a delay brew coffee maker, got one for Christmas several years ago, yet I've actually used the delay brew option maybe six times in six years. I know. I'm shameless!
3) The sofa and or my home work station must be cleared before bed.
OK. So I am a perfectionist. I have this put together, clean, shaven, preppy vibe I show the public. However, my condo tells the real story. Since my sofa is the first thing I see when I walk in the door, it impacts my p.o.v. and tells the tale of what my insides are feeling like. So I chose to at least keep the sofa uncluttered before my head hits the bed at night.
Much more has happened. But for now, I'm going to hop off here and make good on my time management commitments. Details to come.
Meanwhile, it's October already! Enjoy one of my witchy divas while I fold laundry and discover if my sofa can still stand under all that weight.
And yes. The laundry is CLEAN laundry! :-)
