Toy Talk

All the talk in town is about this new grocery store. The infamous GU is closed and going under renovation to emerge from its crusty cocoon as a Stop 'n' Shop. The biped is thrilled. To celebrate, he went to the SnS in Orleans and bought me this fabulous toy.



I already have a broad collection, but this is a thrilling new addition. This is me napping with my new toy close by.


That said, I have very strong loyalties to all of my toys. This one in particular.


It's a pink pig. It is one of the first toys I received upon my arrival here in the Bay State. I've given that poor pig a hard time, but I still love him just as much as the first day I saw him--even though I ripped out his noisemaker, even though I've viciously torn him asunder and split his seams, even though I cruelly gutted him of all of his stuffing until he is a pale shell of the pig I once knew years ago. He is still my piggy and I love him.


Here piggy piggy piggy! Here pig!
