Hub and I attended a comic convention today. I perused the toys while Hub perused the art, and I had a fantastic find! I've been wanting some little toys called "Peek a Poohs" forever, but they're hard to find and usually only in vending machines. People online charge an arm and a leg for them. Grrr. But at this lovely con, we found a machine!! Not only that, but the wonderful clerk was willing to OPEN THE MACHINE TO GET US WHAT WE WANTED. How awesome is that? And no, I didn't bug him, he actually OFFERED.
I got some from this set:
and only a couple from this set:I desperately want the Pooh in the Eeyore costume, as Eeyore is my favorite, and I think it's adorable. But he didn't have that one, and this set is one of those that people charge a ton for. sigh. Actually, both sets are "coveted" sets, so I'm glad we got them.
I did purchase some for gifts as well. I know some people who will just adore them.
On top of that, I found the artist with whom we'd like to partially decorate our child's nursery (when we have one).
Then we had really yummy food at a really humble down-home place with some really good friends. All in all, quite a good day. Now I probably should really buckle down on the schoolwork eh?
