I sleep with stuffed animals, too. Then again that’s not so unusual for girls. The Care Bears bedsheets are maybe a bit much, but fluffy girly 80′s stuff is part of my schtick. I gotta represent, yo.
I have a giant stuffed catfish/body pillow who only comes out of hibernation a few times a year, for drive-in movies. At 3 AM one memorable morning, he was also the genesis of the phrase "The Fish…is my life."
Come back at 3 and read it again. It’ll be funny then. Seriously.

I haven’t been here in about forever.
It is snowing. And I am stuck in my house. So I am cleaning my room. Suuuuucks.
But at least I get to be on topic because all my figures and stuffed animals have been moved. <3
Today when at the grocery store, I was looking at a box of scotties tissues thinking about that little puppet you can order(click name to see it),and how I wanted one so so bad when I was a kid, a few years ago a family friend got one somehow and gave it to me. I think that my mom threw it out when I moved. Next time I’m over there I’m checking to see if its gone or not, otherwise I’m ordering me a new one!
Hehe, I was looking through my computer and I found something I made Matt for X-mas, but I dont think he ever got it, forgive me if the link doesnt work, I just got a photobucket account, and I don’t know what the hell I’m doing.

I still have most of the stuffed animals I’ve amassed in my childhood. And I’ve got boxes upon boxes of Action figures, mostly transformers.
I’m one of those people who freaks out even when my room gets reorganized, and in the last few weeks the stuff in my room is being temporarily moved out so a new carpet & couch can be put in. I’m a total wreck.
On the plus side, I saw the first 2 episodes of the Arrested Development "finale" and then taped the last 2 which I have yet to watch, so I’m feeling good now.

I’ll just be glad when this week’s finally over… it’s been one bitch of a week. There’s been a lot of customers at work that have been unbearable, and some of the fellow employees are slacking off.
It’s Miller time

Matt, I too wish Saturday would last at least 5 days. This coming week is gonna be hell, and I just don’t wanna deal with it. I’m definitely putting in for a weeks vacation VERY soon. I have about 100 hours I can use.
Stuffed animals? I bought a jumbo Squishy Mouse (Littlest PetShop) a little while ago that is absolutely amazing to snuggle with.

It was nearly 90 and sunny here today in Southern California. Just thought I’d mention it.

We’ll miss you when you go on sabbatical, Matt. Seriously though, every week I’m dead by Wednesday, miserable Thursday and I don’t even know how I get through Friday. Mondays suck, of course. Tuesdays are all right, I guess
I have a fair collection of assorted stuffed gorillas. I’m branching out into other jungle pals…so far I’ve got a hippo and a crocodile. Living room is dominated by a large number of penguins as well.

No joke. School needs to chill out, big time. It’s hard to focus on essays with a South Park marathon going on in the background. :/

So no luck attending Toy Fair this weekend Matt? That’s too bad. Some interesting new toys are being revealed, expecially classics like Transformers and Star Wars.

Here in WA we had 3 days in January where it didn’t rain. I feel for you, Matt, with the 10,000 inches of snow, but I’m glad today was nice and sunny here. Tomorrow, we’ll most likely be back to the rain.

Holy Jesus, there was no snow on the ground yesterday and everything is covered thick in it. It’s still coming down too.

I’d just like to point out that I’m not the pheasant plucker, I’m the pheasant plucker’s mate, and I’m only plucking pheasants cause the pheasant plucker’s late. Just, you know, FYI.

Well, I know a girl named Sarah, and shes sitting in a shoe shine shop. All day long she sits and shine, all day long she shines and sits, then she sits and shines, shines and sits. Her name is Sarah, and shes sitting in a shoe shine shop.

I have a pot bellied bear that my aunt gave me when I had to go have heart surgery to repair a murmur when I was 4. I’ve got some pictures of him in the bed with me at the hospital, as I sat with a nurse and performed "surgery" on a doll so I would know what was going to happen to me. Bear is wearing a surgeon’s mask in those pictures.
I’ve slept with him pretty much ever since. My boyfriend has discovered his wonderful light blocking powers and has been known to steal him from me in the mornings. He fits so nicely over the eyes.
Lately I’ve been collecting more pot bellies off of ebay, and I eventually plan to put up a website about them. For as ubiquitous as they were in the early 80s, there’s almost nothing on the net about them.

I have, among other things, a stuffed rhino. His name is Mini-Me. (His middle name is Rambi.) He is rambunctious and usually hungry, but generally well behaved as far as stuffed animals go.
I am secure in my masculinity. Less so in my sanity.

Yes! I’m so excited, I just won some Purplesaurus-rex off ebay! Now here’s my dilemma, should I open the packet and drink the nectar and try to make a recipie to replicate it? Or should I keep it sealed and frame it. It’s a tough decision that I think you guys could help out with.

Ghoul-aid Man- Carefully open the package, drink it then frame the packaging.

I know this is going to make me an outcast among X-E’ers, but I have a confession to make…I hate kool-aid. I always have. Even as a kid. I can kind of stomach the lemonade and pink lemonade flavors, but that’s about it.
*Going to go hide from the angry mob now*
