Warning: I ramble.
So, despite not having seen a full episode yet (crappy internet and don’t get the channel) I have become interested in MLP FIS mainly from what I have heard and a baseball bloggers obsession with posting pony pics in his blog post. So when I saw thy had the ponies. I wanted them,.
I ended up getting a happy meal, or well… convincing my mom to get me to happy meal and I got Fluttershy. I was so excited that a few days later I got another happy meal and this time I got Rarity Obviously after this I had to get them all.
Yesterday I ended up at Wal-Mart which has a McDonalds The entire trip there, and I literally mean the entire trip there I debated with myself on what to do. It went a little like this (In my head)
Should I get a happy meal? I don’t know if I want a happy meal.. Maybe I can just ask for the toys. Yes, I can do that; I should just walk right up and ask what ponies they have... Do I want to spend my money on them though? Nah, never mind I’ll just get baseball cards. ..But I really want the ponies. Do I really need them though? But I want them. What if people look at me funny? I’m twenty seven years old. I haven’t even seen the show yet. I’ll just wait. Yea, I’ll just wait. ….but I want them...
Finally I get to Wal-Mart with the decision not to get them. Of course I waiver. I’m weak minded like that.
I ended up walking back and forth in wal mart about three times before finally deciding to just ask, and finally walk in the McDonalds. Of course, when I get there my resolve fades. And my anxiety kicks in as well as my embarrassment.
.
I stood looking at the display for several minutes (More like several seconds up to a minute) before getting up the courage to just walk up to the counter and ask how much are the ponies without a happy meal. I should add that my heart was pounding away like an ADHD drummer gone mad during the process. Then I ask how many they have and they send someone back to check. My heart starts pounding even harder, but with anticipation this time as I await the answer.
Turns out, they have all eight. Although I already have Rarity and Fluttershy I end up buying them all just to save the trouble and time. Of course when I get home I have to open them and play with them. I've never been one of those people that can just leave them in thier wrappers/conatiners. I'm a seven year old trapped in a tweenty seven year old's body.
I have Fluttershy and Rarity still in their wrappers though since I already had them opened.. I'd send them to people via snail mail if they wanted for free. I don’t know if people would trust a one post noob though with their address ;P. I trade baseball cards though and have set many a things to people.
