Have you ever had a moment when you randomly remember something from your childhood? Last night I was in bed trying to fall asleep and the most random thing popped into my head. Guess what it was?
No, don't guess. You never will.
POGS.
Brian and I used to REALLY love our pogs. I didn't even remember that pogs was an actual game until Joel reminded me that you had to use a SLAMMER to win.
Do kids today even play with toys?! Maybe its because I was in the apple store yesterday and I was literally SURROUNDED by children playing with iphones and ipads, and then we went out to eat and I see kids on nintendos and computer games.
I'm only 21 but I already feel like a grandma when I say "back in my day we used to play with cardboard circles..."
Next on my list of toys that I am sentimental about: FURBY.
My sweet mom called every store around town probably every weekend until one Saturday, Target had these coveted little creepers.
Mine was "coco" and Brian's was a weird gray werewolf colored one. It was a match made in heaven.

I was very attached to my furby. I think Brian's furby eventually died when the battery acid came out of the case and it made very strange noises.
Its obviously a sign that I'm going to be a great mother someday because of my deep bond with coco.
And thanks, mom, for always making my toy dreams come true! I hope you still have those pogs and coco somewhere in the attic.
