One of my favorite things EVER, from 1993 to 1999 was...

American Girl Magazine. I'm not even going to pretend like it wasn't. I had a subscription until I was, like 14. No lie. Why, you ask?
Those. Paper. Dolls.
Ohmygoooooosssssh, I looooove paper dolls. Muhumbuuaahh. [That's the sound I make when I'm melting from excessive happiness, not to be confused with an evil cackle.]
Paper dolls and doll houses. Little things. Make me all... twitterpated.
I wanted to be an AG paper doll SO bad. I was too embarrassed to do the research, though, and too shy to submit, if I ever had. I thought they were so cool. You should check out that link up there, if you haven't yet. Some of those pictures were like stepping right back in time, especially these:

| Chrissy. She was in the first copy I got. So weird. I even remembered her name. |

| Laura. She looked a ton like Veronica, my best friend in first grade. |

| Ashley. Seriously, like going back in time. |

| Sarah. Wow. Love the hair. |

| Monica. She had German heritage, like me. |

| Kara. I'd know her face anywhere. Shouldn't that be a little creepy? |

| Pretty! |
I wonder if I still have those magazines, somewhere...
Does anyone else remember these?
