when you're least expecting it, you suddenly stumble upon the obscure item you've been obsessing over desperately and its just sitting there in front of you waiting for you to take it home??? its a really great feeling, but also a tad overwhelming because a shot of adrenaline like that tends to make one light-headed and a bit jittery. allow me to back up just a bit.
on friday, josh and i had some time to kill before we had to be somewhere, so we went junkin.
"just a quick little look," i promised, because we really didn't have much time. i don't like being in a rush, because i'm afraid i might miss something important. still, i managed to find this bag of pretty vintage christmas ornaments and this cute vintage owl halloween decoration for nice prices.
with only minutes left before the place was about to close, i turned a corner and almost stumbled upon the happiest smiling face i could have ever imagined:
NO WAY! i've been wanting one of these SO BAD. you may remember riding on one of them on the mcdonalds playgrounds of yesteryear. recently i had been drooling over them on ebay and crying over the fact that shipping alone is usually $100 at the very least.
i moved my smiling cheeseburger into the room with mayor mccheese, which also housed my newly acquired giant ice cream cone. it's seriously starting to look like an amusement park in the ryan arms...my work here is done!
happy cheeseburger has since found his true calling in life, which includes providing baby smurf with hours of enjoyment.
Ha! No way!! I love it! Yep, that's quite the day.
ReplyDeleteAMAZING! There is never anything like that to be found in California. That, or I just have the worst junking mojo ever.
ReplyDeleteCUTE, CUTE, CUTE!
