Buying Back Innocence
( 2003-11-08 @ 12:17 a.m. )
Hello again!
Sorry the updating has been sporadic, it's hard to get used to sharing your computer when you have two very busy people with conflicting schedules, but she's Jamie, and she's my bestest friend in the world, and I owuldnt trade her for all the internet time in the world.
So there.
I have come ot the conclusion that one can, in some odd shape or form buy back their innocence.
What was your favorite toy when you were a kid?
M,ine was Fairy Tail Birds and My Little Ponies.
As you know, J2 and I started colelcting, we just got our first ponies in the mail this week.
Included in this bunch was Peppermint Crunch, a mint green pony, with pegasus wings and peppermint ice cream cone on her toosh.
Simple enough aye?
Not entirely.
See, this *WAS* My velveteen rabbit pony when I was younger, I drug her everywhere and loved her to death.....then years ago when we moved all my ponies were stolen.
Anyways, I retrieved her from the box in awe and wonder, and much to my surprise she STILL SMELLED LIEK PEPPERMINT CRUCNH! Yes, she smelled like a peppermint ice cream cone.
I wanted to cry in a very weird way.
It felt liek I had taken a step towards getting back alot of what I lost, everytime I loko up at the ponies on my bookcase now I smile, grin actually from ear to ear.
By the way, Ponies and Fairy Tail birds are requested as Christmas/Birthday presents for Jamie and I both. My birthday 12th, hers Dec 1st, you can mail me and ask which we have odnt have. I collect the Fairy Tail birds........not Jamie.
So mail me for stuff if you need lists.
But yes, it felt very good in a bizzare way, trolling through e-bay, looking for ponies, winning auctions.
More ponies/Birds on the way.
It really does feel like I'm a kid again, and I love playing with them, I look forward to cleaning them and conditoning their hair.
I'm incredibly sheesy liek that.
So what was your favorite 80's toy?
I lvoe my ponies, and my ponies love me, and that's all that matters.
Besides, one of them glows in the dark, how cool is that?
Until Then...
Believe and You Will Find Your Way...
