Im seriously thinking about adopting my Polar Bear Lil'Kinz plush....since Webkinz is a virtual pet, it would teach me responsibility and perhaps, maybe, learn to stop procrastinating so much.
Oh, bringing up Webkinz makes me a little sad. I had a Webkinz snake whom I lost due to moving. Whatever happened, I feel guilty for losing the cute little plush.
Mind you, I bought and lost the snake in 2008. Webkinz has no doubt changed since then. The snake has since been retired, so I couldn't buy an unused replacement. I don't think I'd want a replacement, anyway, not after seeing Toy Story 3. (Apparently, replaced toys find their lost owners, and then said toys turn evil because they are sad and angry about being replaced. Heh.)
Edit:
It turns out I can buy an unused replacement due to Amazon.
Look how much it would cost, though! I know I paid around five dollars originally. Webkinz prices have skyrocketed, especially for their retired animals. Apparently you have to go to the Webkinz Extravaganza at a Hallmark store, which is yearly, to be able to play with a retired Webkinz online. Hm. Well, I am going to try again at finding what I lost first. The people who cleaned out the place I moved from said they didn't see a toy snake, which makes me think someone stole for their kids.
I hope that happened as opposed to the poor thing being run over on the road or something equally bad.
:lol:
A little boy tried to claim my childhood dog right after I bought her.
"Sorry, but a little girl just now bought this dog."
"Little
GIRL? This looks like a little
BOY'S dog!"
(How a female runt looked like a boy's dog to him, I have no idea.)
Ever since, there has been a reoccurring theme for people to say that my animals, actual or toy, are for boys. You know, on another topic, I think it was partly because of this theme that I assumed I would have more sons. I
seem like a mother of sons. Not that I think I'm like my mother or much like the mothers of the fellow members here, but somehow I seem like a mother of sons. I don't know how to explain it. But maybe I'm speaking nonsense resulting of having mostly brothers and male friends and such. Still, I also think James seems like a father of sons. Am I making any sense here or just sounding crazy when I say that James and I seem like parents of sons whereas Ben and Dee seem like parents of daughters?
My intuition had a rare faulty moment when it told me I'd need to adopt a daughter to have one. However, were it not for said faulty intuition, I wouldn't have met my one son!
