"I bought all sorts of toys over the last couple of days.
Diecast models. I was bad, I went and bought a 1/18 scale custom '50 Mercury Woodie (candy apple red), and a 1/18 scale '62 Chevy Impala (bright red, with the dog-dish hubcaps & 409cid engine). They're really pretty and cool, except I shouldn't be a) spending money on this stuff, and b) shouldn't be buying more bulky stuff when planning to move.
Toys cars. I bought thre more toy cars to glue onto
The Cat's interior. A classic E-type Jaguar, a '51 Studebaker (same style as in the Muppet Movie), and the Mystery Machine from Scooby Doo. This adds to the other 3-4 I have hanging around waiting to be glued in place. I need toget aroudn to another round of that.
Tools. Ok for most people spending $130 on tools for work would not count as 'toys' but well... Tools! I bought a more reasonably sized and useful toolbox, some robogrip pliers, rachet wrenches, an electric screwdriver and some other stuff. Is all cool stuff, will make me more efficient at work (which means more $$) and will actually be useable outside of this job. Therefore it actually makes sense. I have another ~$100-150 in stuff I want to get, but that will wait until I get my first real paycheck from them.
Legos. Bought three tiny playsets, but they were 3/$5 so I don't feel guilty.
Mini Scoozie Coyote. This thing looks like a grey furry sausage with four tiny feet and a coyote head. When you squeeze it it makes one of at least a dozen random sounds. It is fairly loud and no doubt obnoxious for other ppl. I was playing with it while in like to buy the Legos, and was so delighted I gleefully paid the $2 for it. It howls, growls, whimpers, giggles, yells 'ye-haw!', says 'hello', makes random noises, etc. I keep squeezing it just to see what it does next. Every time it yawns and says 'good morning' I start giggling."
