I mentioned I'd be away from the blog, and so I am. I haven't literally gone fishing; have you seen the price of a general fishing license? In my state, Fish and Game wants $37 for a general license. It's $24 for Community Fishing but what is Community Fishing, anyway? Also, I'd have to buy a fishing pole, a tackle box, tackle, and maybe some of those stinky little salmon eggs before I could realistically hope to actually throw a line into the water. So that was a problem.
A bigger problem is, all of those dollars could have gone toward the purchase of one of Mattel's new line of Fashionista Barbie Dolls. Specifically, I want one of the beautiful Tall Barbies (but only the one with the great Afro) and one of the wonderful Curvy Barbies (but only the one with the blue, black hair).
Those are what' I'm fishin' for.
You might wonder if I could fulfill my quest just by ordering things on-line but, if that's your thought, you clearly don't know the joy of the hunt. There's nothing like finding the object of your affection and actually holding it in your hands. I'm happy to report, I've hooked the Curvy Barbie from the very same Target that provided me with last week's Cherry Cordial Delight Limited Edition Peeps. (Still delicious. Even more chewy today.) Now, I'm on the prowl for Tall Barbie.
