toys

[magid]

Of course I forgot to mention in the upsherin post last night.. there were toys! And of course I snagged some :-)

There were little pinwheels on a longer-than-the-pinwheel-size-would-imply stick, and
Funky Straws. These have a join in them, where there's a smiley flower. When you suck liquid through one side, or blow through the other side, the bright pink smiley flower revolves... great entertainment for bears of little brain...

(Really, I will get something done today other than posting here. Yes I will. Just watch.)

Good thing you can't ssh from work, or you might not get any work done.

If you're referring to a certain game program, I suspect it's too close to real-time playing for that game, which I have determined to be deleterious to my mental state (though email playing is quite entertaining).

Well, one difference is that it's not guessing your word at the same time. It just sits there waiting for you. But, anyway.

Also takes all the psychological guessing out of it. I guess I'm just not addicted enough, 'cause it doesn't sound like as much fun. Though if viewed as a word puzzle...

no... that way lies madness....?
