  1. i just found the mother load of fisher price little people in the basement of my mum’s house. i like the dog the best, although mine has seen better days. it’s right ear was chewed off by my dog when i was little and i kid you not, not 4 hours after i reconnected with my favourite little fisher price friend, my cat was found attacking the right ear.

  2. my rich friend had the kitchen. i hated her for it and refused to partake in any role playing games like “i’ll be the mommy. You be the baby”. even then i was a jealous, stick-in-the mud.

  3. The Lego airplane set was my fav. i was obsessed with airplanes and fighter planes. i wanted to be a pilot until i got distracted by figure skating and started skipping math and physics in lieu of sneaking off to skate. boo! i regretted this decision nearly every single day of university, especially the day i had to defend the fracking statistics i used in my thesis from the mathmatical heckling of a Physics professor. mathmatical isn’t even a word. see if i care!

  4. barbies stayed in their boxes. i already had self-esteem problems at that age.

  5. I bought an original Saga system from Sears. oh yes. it was more aesthetically pleasing, but it had no games and people mocked me. uh. again with the bitterness… i finally caved and got the Super NES. but i gave it to this boy i had a huuuuge crush on in gr 10 and he never gave it back!!!!

why is this trip into memory lane making me so bitter? breathe like the doctor told you

I had an even older McDonalds one. Like late 70’s early 80’s, I dunno. Now where did I put it. (Off to go look.)

Just promise me, from one toy lover to another, never stop loving toys. Promise.
