    Just some thoughts

    Yeah. Been awhile, I know.

    Why I Don't Write Here Anymore

    I suppose it's been on my mind for a long time, but it never really occurred to me until recently. And because a few of you have been waiting for some projects I promised I'd finished, you deserve to know, as well.

    This exists . . .

    This is a thing that exists. This was made with effort, and money.

    And Hasbro actually put their name on this.

    . . .

    . . .

    . . .

    I'm gonna step away from this one.

    My good friend needs some support

    You all probably know HudsonHawk, especially if you know me. Even though I've never met the man in person, he's my best friend on this site, on the internet, and probably ever.

    Embarking on a new venture

    Recently I discovered a site for content creators called Daisie. It allows people to post their work and ask for collaborators, and it was created by actress Maisie Williams, whom many of you might know as Arya Stark from Game of Thrones.

Plushie haul!! :D · 12:35am Jan 8th, 2017

Fast as lightning, sharp as a sword

Check 'em out!

Today we got a HUGE haul of pony plushies at work. Twilight, Rarity, 3 Rainbow Dashes (one was a purse, another was an Easter basket, don't ask me how that shit works :applejackunsure:), and 2 Pinkie Pies (one smaller than the other). Of course, since they're new goods, Goodwill doesn't let employees buy them. Which sucks, because by tomorrow, they're free game for us. And I am probably one of two Bronies in my entire area.

So leave it to my luck to get the OTHER Brony in the entire area to swoop down and take Dash and the bigger Pinkie right out from under my nose. :twilightangry2:

But it's cool. I wasn't able to buy Twi and Rares, but my mom was. She sprung for me. :twilightsmile:

Later tonight, we went to the supermarket, and I spotted the other three Princesses in a plushie stand! I had to grab them!! :pinkiehappy:

So, Fate wasn't really kind, but Fate said "I'm sorry" and sweetened my load. Not a bad way to end a long shift! :pinkiehappy:

(I also got a copy of Fox's "Daredevil" on DVD, "The Princess and the Frog" on Blu-Ray, and the graphic novel of "V for Vendetta". I'm gonna have a pretty good few days off. :ajsmug:)

Stay quick, stay sharp and thanks for reading.

That's a nice haul of plushies you got there, Lightning.

V for Vendetta is alright. But I do prefer her more popular sister.

That's awesome, dude!:pinkiehappy:

I'm normally not the biggest Luna fan, but my goodness -- the Luna one is adorable.:rainbowkiss::pinkiegasp::raritystarry:

4373366 If I had to guess . . . Watchmen?

I got the Rarity one for my Birthday last year.

That Cadance plushie is AWESOME! I love her. What supermarket did you get her at? I couldn't find her even at Toys R' Us or CVS pharmacy (which usually has a ton of MLP plushies).

Also, Princess And The Frog! Best Disney movie ever! I love Naveen. He's so adorable. Cute wittle froggy prince!:twilightsmile:

4373464 I got her at Schnuck's. Unless you live in the midwest US, you might not be close to one. :applejackunsure:

Lucky you to have such a mon. Better than most of us XD

4373478 Ooh. Yup. A Schnucks about 5 minutes away from me. I live in STL, Missouri. Smack dab in the midwest.

4373532 Nice! Here's hoping they carry the same plushies. :twilightsmile:

Awesome my friend :D hope you find more plushies ^_^

I get my TY beanie baby ponies from the Pagoda gift shop at Cedar Point (toward the front of the park). I got all but 1 of my beanie babies there (Rainbow Dash was the one. I got her at another gift shop near the Maverick on the same day I got the following pony).
Would you believe me if I said that I got the last alicorn Twilight at the Pagoda when I got her? We call that lucking out.
And she was on the stand's DISPLAY. So, double luck.
It was HEINOUS to know I'd have to wait to cuddle them!

4373478 I live in Michigan. Haven't seen a single one of those stores here. But I can tell that's nearly torture, seeing others get those plushies when you can't till your mom's available.
I'm jealous of two of my best friends' MLP 2017 calendars.

4373643 You don't have any MLP 2017 calendars available near you? Around here, they're everywhere. I got a cheap one at the General Dollar Store and a nicer one from a calendar stand in the South County Mall.
