Dearest MySpace Friends...
You haven't heard from me in ages, now have you? And why is that? That is because I, Mildred Mahler, am merely a lowly cartoon character and am completely at the mercy of the whims and follies of my creator! LaLaVox is her name... Some of you know her already. And I have a major bone to pick with her, because she has left this MySpace profile of mine mercilessly unattended since almost April of this year; almost 7 whole months in the meantime!!! Grrrrr....
...To be fair though, she's only been leaving my MySpace profile hanging (while leaving her personal MySpace profile and her two music profiles hanging as well); she's been pretty active with our MildredLovesYou.com website. Back on June 16th we all got together and started something called The Monday Pin-Up. This Monday Pin-Up series was never announced here at MySpace though, because LaLaVox just didn't feel ready to make a big deal of it all yet. Perhaps something inside her already knew that 2008 would end of being an uncooperative year. But she had gone ahead and begun anyway, because she'd promised herself she would begin the series on Monday, June 16th, 2008. It did indeed end up being a bumpy ride though. A couple of fairly nice Monday Pin-Ups did result from all of this effort however, and so here are a few of our favorites for you to see...
But things got increasingly difficult as the year wore on and by Halloween she'd almost given up completely. Halloween is my favorite holiday, and, woe is me, I was forced to – for lack of a better word - MISS it!!! - being consoled only by a quickly thrown together Halloween Collage greeting card made up of past images!... >:(
LaLaVox had then hoped to get things going again this month, but alas it was not to be. And so she and my friends and I have all decided to just go with the flow and give it a rest. We are giving the remainder of 2008 the finger and setting our sights on a new and glorious 2009...
...Yes, I know – another quickly thrown together collage of past images... But none the less - Happy Thanksgiving, Merry Christmas, and Happy New Year everybody! Perhaps I'll get lucky and LaLaVox will allow me a bit of renewed activity here at MySpace in the meantime. But in case she doesn't manage it, all my best wishes to you, and I very much look forward to returning to your affectionate ranks in January of 2009...
All of my best wishes to you,
Mildred Mahler – cartoon character pin-up and virtual burlesque dancer
