Ponies

[ladybug_archive]

After careful consideration of all the things Build-a-Bear currently has that I am interested in to some degree, I think the end result is that I'll probably get Pinkie Pie when I have the chance. I've heard that they're already retiring Trixie (although some sources says she'll be back after the holidays ... why can't they ever seem to agree on knowing what they're doing?), and I know that come next year there's going to be more new Ponies released, so I can't believe they'll keep Pinkie past the point of the next new release. While she isn't among my favorites, the second Equestria Girls movie made me like her more again (albeit that was her human version, but they're pretty much the same in personality) and I think I'll feel bad if they retire her without me getting to have her. I remember how entrancing she was last year, when I was restuffing my Fluttershy. I wanted so bad to scoop Pinkie up right then and there (and be carrying around two Ponies all day). I'm still a little exasperated and frustrated about Rainbow Dash retiring from the physical stores so suddenly (even though she had a good, long run and all, etc; it's just exasperating that they take her away right when I actually start thinking I might want her). I see she's still available on the website, but I'm not crazy about buying from the website, especially if they won't send the plushies unstuffed. I like to be right there watching as they're stuffed. And I just abhor paying for shipping and handling, but I would never have enough money to spend on the website at once to warrant free shipping.

But so anyway, yeah, after the fail to get Rainbow Dash, I don't want to see that happen with Pinkie, especially since I've wanted her more.

Hoping I might get a chance to get her on the big shopping trip when we go to the malls and such. There's probably only going to be one such trip and I'm assuming that will happen next week sometime; we did the smaller shopping trip, to stores closer around here, last night. If I don't get her before Christmas, I don't know if I'll be able to get her very soon after Christmas, since Dad would not be anxious to go shopping again after the day. It's hard enough to get him to go shopping before the day, sometimes.
