(Woohoo, I’ve been meaning to write about this for a really long time, but managed to hold it off.)

One of the items I’m aiming to get on Gaia is a lunar scythe, since for some reason, I’ve always liked scythes. I think it has something to do with Gundam Wing. XP

But the lunar scythe is about 20,000-30,000g and since I only have about 12,000g, I realized that I won’t reaching my goal anytime soon. So instead, I decided to cave in and got a white bun-bun plushie, since my poor avatar looked lonely with her hands empty.

About a few minutes after owning the plushie, I realized that I probably might not sell it. Even if I was hurting for gold, I would probably sell my other items first, before I sell the bun-bun plushie. Why?

Well…I also have this problem in real life, see. My room is filled with stuffed animals I accumulated over the years (anyone who has seen my room can verify). I have not been able to give a single one of them away, since growing up, they were more like friends than just toys to me. And I kind of remember that, and part of me still sees them as friends (especially when they have cute, cuddly faces T_T). And yes, I do understand that I pretty much have no freaking room for any other stuffed animals. Heck, I have to keep some on my desk. But the one thing that’s stopped me from giving them away is me worrying if they’ll go to good homes. Will their new owners love them as much as I did (I’ve had some fond memories of these guys. Of course I wanted them to be loved ;o;)? I’m pretty sure there are 1,000,000,000 little kids who would, but I feel a little weird about giving them used stuffed animals (most of which are over 20 years old :O).

Wow, a fly (which has been buzzing around my room for the past couple hours and annoying the living daylights out of me) just landed on my desk. I picked it up (it did struggle, but couldn’t escape) and flushed it down the toilet. And washed my hands. Guess I don’t have to have Bachan’s awesome L337 fly-swatting skillz0r.* XP

*My late maternal grandma had awesome L337 fly-swatting skillz0r. When she saw a fly, she would eyeball it closely, gauging its distance, aim carefully and SMACK. Based on what my uncle said at her funeral, but I did see a live demonstration of her L337 fly-swatting skillz0r, and it did look very similar to that.

Umm…so, plushies…yeah. Some of the 20+ year old ones are starting to show their age, so even if I cleaned them up, they’ll still look a little worn. T_T

(One reason why I want to move into my own house. I could put up my stuffed animals wherever I want. XD)
