Riding with Barbie . . .

Recommended Posts

I'm going on a Toy Run in the morning so I went to the mall last week to get my "new unwrapped gift" and decided on a Barbie doll. But, have you any idea how many "flavors" of Barbie there are now?

Even so the guy in the Toy Store didn't have the one I wanted.

"Have ya got old lady Barbie?" I asked him.

"Ya mean like Bag Lady Barbie?"

"No man," I answered, "I mean like Biker Barbie."

"No, we don't," he said, "but we have all the others."

So I settled on "Bride Barbie" and now I've had her in the house for a week, but I can't wait to get rid of her.

I figured I'd tie her to my handlebars, so hey, I'm not so insecure I can't fly Barbie high and proud, but for
five days now I've been fighting the urge to bust open the box and take a peek under that dress, LOL!

Just like a real life Barbie..B|

BUT, one of the main problems with toy drives is Far too many stuffed toys, and (sory to point this out) not enough "boy toys" , BUT, that Barbie is going to be a dream coem true to some small child...Not many buy such good quility toys....

I just dropped a remote control truck, in one of my regular bars collectin box today , (I gave up on the runs, just a personal thing) I plan to buy a toy every day in the next week, and drop it in verious locations that are collecting, (OK Bars):$B|;)

I believe the most popular Barbie amongst girls these days is the Divorcee Barbie - she comes with half of Ken's belongings.



OK...I stole it. Barbie Sue me.
:P

My reality and yours are quite different.

I usually buy Legos. I took a set to the Marine Corps birthday ball one year (to drop in the toy drive bin). At a formal event attended by a bunch of senior officers, I watched more than half of them turn into 6-yr-old boys, exclaiming with envy, "you got LEGOS!" And so began the tradition. :D BTW, I also like to donate jigsaw puzzles. Older kids need good stuff, too! :)

Go ahead, but if you find that you fit... Well, I don't think I'd brag about it. :)

I actually stood in the G.I. Joe isle pondering my options, but either way, I thought, some young guy was going to get screwed . . .
