Best Day Eve Interviews

August 18th is #1 Best Day Ever.  It's an Official Uglydoll Holiday on the 2010 calendar, and is taken seriously around here. We formed an Ugly committee to work out the details of observing such an important holiday.

We picked our best and brightest, and of course Dr. Max Abima was best suited as committee chairman.  Max decided this was a day best approached with a trial run.  He challenged our Uglys to think, go out, and have...The Best Day Ever....EVE!  That way we could work out any wrinkles.

Dr. Max observed them at their task, and interviewed a few of the Uglys for the Chronicles.

Big Toe took time in the Bamboo Garden to reflect and relax.  Time alone for a member of the dazzling 2010 Big Toe Collection is hard to find.  Though he enjoyed it, he made an important discovery we will reveal tomorrow.  Stay tuned, grasshopper!

Cookies. Cookes are wonderful !Babo wondered if it would be better to BE cookies than EAT cookies.  He crammed himself into a tight box to better embody a cookie. Would that make for the best day ever?

Little Wage and Uglydog thought a adventure would be the Best Day Ever.  They explored far and wide, and made some new friends.  Pretty fun, but the best?  We shall see.

Malcolm Wage is our Safety Officer.  It's a huge responsibility.  His mind is on safety, day and night.  So for his Best Day Ever he went for something daring. Something risky.  Something UN-safe.  Metal sculpture climbing!  Being Malcolm, he did tote a long his light saber,  warning flasher, money, a bit of rope,  and a cell phone. 

  "Take risks, but be smart!."  Malcolm Wage.

Tomorrow Dr. Max and our Ugly family will be right back here to share with you our #1 Best Day Ever...now that we've had some practice.  

We hope you will have YOUR Best Day EVER, and share with us!

Uglydoll Calendars Up Close 2011

Uglydoll Calendars 2011 came today. .  Each month of the mini and standard size calendar shows a different charming Uglydoll photograph up top, with the amazing art of David Horvath sprinkled about the bottom.

 Each calendar has a sheet of bonus Uglydoll stickers! I let the sheets peak out from beneath the calendars so you could get an idea of how awesome they are without giving away the surprise. The mini calendar has a mini sheet of stickers, and the biggy has a bigger sheet!

Both calendars show September, October, November, and December 2010 together on one page for easy reference, and to let you get started using the your new Uglydoll Calendar right away. 

Color in cheerful abundance,  David's more-than-awesome art, together with adorable real-life Uglydoll photos make these calendars 1000% Ugly!  And a complete winner!

Those who get Uglydoll calendars each year will notice a solid departure from the entirely art-driven  Uglydoll calendars of past years. Though I confess to LOVING the old calendars with LOTS David's drawings, text bubbles everywhere, and quirky Uglydoll holidays, I am all on board with the NEW as well.  The 2011 Calendars are certain to make me smile every time I look at them.  How many things can I say that about!

I can already hear my own Uglydolls hoping to make it into next years calendar!  There's a little model in everyone, I guess. 

Oh. Mini Calendar. March.  Laugh Out Loud Funny!  Oh my gosh. Wait till you see.  One clue. Pointy Max. 

Uglydoll Calendar 2011 Big Size!

It's confirmed!  Both Uglydoll 2011 calendars are out!
Google for it and you'll find a few.  Soon they'll be widely available.
The one to the left is the larger, standard sized wall calendar.
Size is about 12x12.

Amazon has them on "super saver" right now, meaning if you get over 25.00 worth of goodies you get free shipping.
The big calendar is 11.19.
Mini Calendar is 7.99 on Amazon.
I just ordered mine!

Uglydoll Calendar 2011 Mini

How'd that happen?  
The release of the 2011 Uglydoll Calendar slipped right by me!
It's out and available for about 7.99.  This one is the Mini Calendar with one of my all-time favorite pics of Wedgehead on the cover.  I'm really excited to see the other  months!  For the space-challenged the Mini is especially good news.

And hey...it's a 16 month calendar.  Are there 16 months in an Ugly year?  If so, I'm younger than I thought.


I've learned not to assume.  So I'm off to see if the standard size large Uglydoll calendar is also available.  I'll let you know!

June Official Uglydoll Holidays

Some of the things I love about the Uglydoll Calendar, and why you will want one if you don't have one already.  If you have one, you may want two after you read this.

• It arranges the days and weeks of the year into an easy to access monthly format!
• Art is included on each page at no extra charge.  Just look at the example to the left. This is on the JUNE page. How awesome is that!  
• There are fun to celebrate Ugly Holidays.  For example, June Holidays are:
• June 7...Moon and Mars Artifact Day
• June 8...Tray Day
• June 11...Sailor Hat Day
• It comes with STICKERS!
• Every month is new and creative. 
• It's easy to pick out a monthly theme.  I think the June  theme is Quantum Snacks. Look at June. You'll see why.
• It leaves me laughing every time I look at it.  
• The art is amazing Uglydoll art!  David Horvath all the way.
• You can tell yourself you'll save it to cut up the next year and use the pics to decorate your home, then be emotionally incapable  of cutting it.  
• If you save the 2010 calendar until 2021, you can USE IT AGAIN! 
• It makes New Year's 100x more fun because there is  NEW Ugly calendar.
• It is big enough to see!

Ok!

Happy Hat Day

Uglydoll Calendars shows August 1st is Hat Day, so the Uglydolls dug into the closets and searched under the beds for their favorite hats.

After the important activities of eating, nibbling, sipping juice, and dessert, I was able to gather them all up for a group photo.

Here they are, wishing you all the Happiest of Hat Days, and many more. More days and more hats!

Golden Ugly Day of No Worky

This is Uglydoll Chuckanucka. We call him Chuck. He's wearing a new winter hat I found at a summer sale at REI for small money due to the off-season. This is the first beany style hat I've ever seen with a draw string to accommodate many head sizes. And it's so softy. Will I be able to locate this cozy hat come winter time? We shall see.

Here we find Chuck observing Golden Ugly Day of No Worky, June 11th. He hopes you were able to join him and just kick back.

If you missed it, Chuck thinks this holiday could float to a weekend day. So you're not too late.

Enjoy.

Chuck has some brothers for adoption. Click here if you're interested. He's a charmer!

SPECIAL NOTE: Chuck was my first Uglydoll.

It's Nap Day

A quick look at the Uglydoll Calendar and you know why these guys are all snuggled up in the middle of the day. June 7th is Nap Day. Already on their 3rd nap, these guys are planning to squeeze in a 4th. Why so much napping? Because tomorrow is UGLY DAY and they want to be rested and ready for action.

Early Alert: Thursday, June 11th is Golden Ugly Day of No Worky. Clear your calendar now. The rest will take care of itself.

The more you look at the Uglydoll Calendar, the more you see. And the more it sees you. Just because it's already June, don't think it is too late to get this awesome calendar. Just think of all the holiday's you'll miss without it. Plus there are the stickers. I'll try to scan in a sample soon to show you. The stickers alone are worth the price of a calendar. At least they are to me. I bought two calendars to get the extra set. If you want one, do a Google search for Uglydoll Calendar. At the time of those posting amazon.com still has some, as do other retailers.
