Hmm. Interesting.

ladybug_archiveSo there was a small and dreary Jo-Ann's two towns over. I didn't like it much; there was hardly anything in it, so unlike the beautiful big one three more towns over.
But they moved the small one into a bigger building, and squeeee, it's so beautiful and bright and new and BIG! It even rivals that other big one now, I think. This new one may just be my favorite branch. It has everything in it that the other big one had, including those pre-stuffed dolls, if I ever get the urge to make more plushies.
They've also built a Wal-Mart in that town now. It's bright and big and beautiful too. And really a little bit strangely, their toy section is in a part of the store that I've never seen it at in a Wal-Mart before in reality ... but it's been in that approximate area in several dreams I've had. Weird.
One of those dreams was just a few days ago, too. I was overwhelmed with wondering what to buy, just as I have been in reality, but in the dream my choices were Ponies (particularly a shaggy alicorn version of Sunset Shimmer), Troll dolls, and Sailor Moon plushies. The Sunset came in two sizes, standing and laying down, and I liked standing best, but there was only one and there was a wire sticking out of her leg. So I was debating whether to get laying down or try a different store for standing.
I saw a lot of Troll dolls at that antique mall, including one with beautiful deep purple hair, so that's probably why I dreamed of them. I like them too, but I like them best when they're clothed. I'm not sure why a lot of Troll dolls are naked. But the ones at the mall seemed clean, at least, unlike the mall's Ponies, so I may go back and get some. There was a cute little one praying in a nightgown.
When I was at the Jo-Ann's, I saw a mini oar apparently used as a house decoration. It was rather heavy regardless, and I suddenly got the inward giggles imagining Ecks and Wye deciding to become private detectives since they can't go back to the spy business, and Wye going in some house and the woman there clocking him with the decorative oar.
Right now I seem to be at the stage where, yes, I am becoming fond of them, but I'm still entertained by poking fun at them a bit. If I ever grow to love them as much as I love some other characters, that enjoyment of poking fun at them will fade. Then I will adore them too much to want to do that. I had that happen with Mr. Sampson from Perry Mason.
I'd better finish that haunted house fic before I go past that point, because I definitely poke fun at Ecks in that.
