The Claw, Oh Dear!

Dec 31, 2002 01:08

It's happened again. My addiction reared it's ugly head.
I was in Safeway and I walked over to the Claw Toy Machine.

There nestled in the mix was Pokey! You know, Gumby's horse.
He's prolly a 12 inches tall. I couldn't believe it.
I wanted him, and I wanted him bad.

I haven't been so tempted by that Claw Machine in I don't know how long ( Read more... )

Two of the *little*s are coming over. Tonight I also bought noise makers and hats, and we are going to pretend we're fun. :D They are young enough to believe it. ;)
No really, it'll be great!

There are restaurants that have claw machines over the lobster tank. If you catch a lobster, they'll cook it up and serve it with all the sides and everything. So you could theoretically get a full lobster dinner for a buck if you're really lucky.
Of course lobsters, unlike Pokey, will try to dodge the claw....

hahahaha!

I don't like lobster, so they are safe from me. Asparagus, now that would be tough.

That's great! People walking by stare at me when I pitch a fit. I can never win anything with THE CLAW!

What can I say? I'm a kid at heart-- I'll keep trying. Happy New Year!
